At the moment, Drexler-type nanotechnology is synonymous with fantasy magic. Your nanotech aerosol is on par with "I will curse the earth". (by the time it might be a threat, you get the world of "We Were Out of Our Minds with Joy", where the American Legion instakills you on the slightest...

Uh? That's Lordaeron's wall here...

Yea, and they broke massively skill quests there. All quests give only skill in the original skill, so once you're 300, you gain zero... Forget about finishing your skill (as it was in Legion, I forget which profession, but I had basically no choice for a long time but to grab Darkmoon every...

I've notice (on EU) those types. They queue, and as soon as they're inside, they leave. And you're stuck in the instance without a tank, waiting for the next.

I run NoScript, so I only accept script from wowhead itself (plus a handful of general API, like 5 different google stuff). Since I don't run the scripts from the 7 different ad networks that try to grab my attention (plus who knows how many third party resellers once I run the ad network...

Valve is opening that one this november: Artifact. Card game, three lanes with champions, minions, etc...

If you've got gold to burn, you can get medallions which give you 1000 with every WoD faction at the AH.

Yea, I managed to snag finally the toy from the Wardens 1 week before 8.0... was very, very happy not to have any faction to do anymore. But outside of the legendaries xmogs, there's no reason whatsoever for class hall missions come Aug 14. At least the WoD class halls give you free archeology...

Nope, you signed for leaders that keep promoting successors that are batshit psychos. (Thrall handing the horde to Garrosh, Vol'jin picking Sylvanas) I fully expect Baine to get the Horde in the next expansion, then decide to go on spiritual journey and give it to Gallywix who will run it...

Don't bother with the garrison. If you're 100+, there's like 15+ followers that can be picked with 5mn tops, plus you can recruit one follower per week with the Inn, so you don't need to really do the content. Once you have the garrison heartstone, you can come back, launch a bunch of missions...

We had clear skies and heat wave all week long, and we'll have clear skies and more heat wave all weekend. There's only a single rain front passing thru for, like 6-8 hours in between. Guess when...

Some people have won the metabolic lottery...

I think that's a setting on the launcher. I remember that because for some reason, whenever I had to reinstall the launcher, it wanted to use US servers and auth, and I had to switch it by hand or it would go all wonky at times. (my OS is probably set to use enUS as a language rather than enEN)

Variety of stuff. ATT told me that I already had all the appearances I've seen on my priest; the staff weapon was the Communal Stave from WOD salvage hut.

Sooo... maybe I will have my AH in a garrison at a heartstone's throw... ... then again, I will probably have one with a mount's summon.

She's finally realized that Go'el is an exception to orcdom, not the rule. Not only that, but the instant he had a family, he abdicated every responsibility (unlike dad, who was still trying to lead his clan till the day he got assassinated).

Since Amazon still does a poor job at telling me interesting stuff is coming out, I just noticed that the 2nd translation of S.T.Y.X. has landed. STYX is a russian series that is best described as "Mad Max meets The Walking Dead meets The X-Men". There is a multiverse, but it's broken, and...

A bit more (or less) than that. What Christianity did was to take Judaism, and make it non jewish-exclusive. You no longer had to be a member of the chosen people to be worthy. If judaism hasn't included the whole "chosen people" shebang, Christianity would have never taken off.

Well, there might be no facepalm, but there should be a /boop

I was just listening to some old Jean-Claude Van Damme speeches, so I'm still in the groove. Keep it up man!

Happens from time to time. Last time was in march. I had to point the launcher to every game as it has lost all of them.

For the same psychological trick that makes marketing go: "LIMITED TIME OFFER! GET IT NOW OR NEVER!" It works in retail, it works in games: stuff you wouldn't care about becomes important.

Note that this is illegal in the EU. The EU legislation is very clear: any electronic goods must be refunded on demand up to 15 days AFTER the delivery of the FINAL advertised product. If Cloud Imperium wants to have any commercial presence in the EU, they still have to obey EU commerce laws :)

There's no real benefit. The thing is, if you later want to raise, say, pandaria alchemy, you will not be able to without doing pandaria recipes. Right now, you can gather some plant seed, craft basic potions that reward 5 skill, and get to 600 skill, which will mean that you will have pandaria...

I think the best "raid save" was a near wipe to Agnarr. I don't remember the details, but one guy managed to aggro him and started kiting while someone used a rez for a cleric. Then, we started slowly rezing while Agnarr would run round and round and round in his room; dragging the corpses to...

That was DBM before there was DBM...

Finished both of Andrew Rowe's first series (The War of the Broken Mirrors and Arcane Ascension). Beware, series are ongoing. They appear to share a common universe where magic is manipulated and controlled leading to a manner similar to a class system. The War of Broken Mirrors is more classic...

if it's this week, do the cheapest legion recipe as long as it's orange, then grind reps to exalted as fast as you can (that is, not fast enough) to get as many rank 3 recipes you can so they're still green until 800. Done. If it's next week, every expansion is its own skill level, and you...

But, but, the players need to feel Rewarded™! If they do not get a full upgrade every leveling zone, they'll Complain!

I do because otherwise, I'll get bad habits for the "real" raiding.

I have leveling stones for every pet announced in BfA. I get them, they'll be rare/25 1mn later after I switch to my stone bank. Overruled! Next argument!

It's a bit late for that, since you have 1 week left. Heroic & WQ aren't going to do much, you won't get enough legendary tokens for a new legendary item (unless you're close to half done). LFR will give you 3-4 (with bonus rolls) 915 items, you might get 2-3 relinquished tokens for 910+ if you...

Since "Atlantis" was almost surely Santorini, at 1500BC, we're looking at bronze-age pre-mycaenian period. The thing is, in that era, each civilization was significantly different from the others. Crete was very different from the Mittani, which were different from Egyptians. The only thing we...

Highly logical and rational behavior from Mr. O'Brien. Your employees start going ad-hominem on media partners in public, they can come get their personal effect under escort on monday.

The big problem with Tesla is that he was apparently asocial to an extreme degree. He might be interesting, but I'm not sure I'd appreciate spending 1h with him...

Phased out? Like, by what? The Internet... powered by the 4000 satellite radio constellation that Elon is putting in orbit? :)

Give him a handful of health suggestion so that he can live longer; give him advice on how to handle succession better; tell him not to stop until he reaches the Altlantic... and don't bother building boats, just go around from Siberia. The World Mongol Empire would be a sight to behold.

"I don't like the current estimates in Drake's, therefore I'll push my own versions" Not to disparage the method, but they start with bullshit, and end up with bullshit. But on a log scale. The only recent decent work on Drake's equation was the fact that we do have an upper bound to N (the...

Given that I was still getting 25g tokens that were refused by the merchant this weekend, I doubt it. And it's exactly one model of 25g token, the last of which I got from a mission on sunday. Every other sold fine (we EU got the hotfix along with the patch).

Your bodyguard earns you 125g per WQ though (in addition to whatever the quest gives). Not too shabby.
