    Mass Ultras. Kerrigan's Heal makes them functionally invincible and she is strong enough to handle air alone. I finished with > 10k resources since once you max they never die. Teleport to base when needed / mass spines/spores.

    I've been asked to assemble a computer for work that will be used for scientific stimulus presentation & control. Basically I've been asked to put together a beastly computer with a $2500 budget (monitors etc not included, just the stuff that goes in the box) that needs to be able to drive 3-4...

    Car Buying Help

    Well I've had it for 12 years and it is a '94 accord. Fixing the air conditioner costs more than the car is worth now. It actually runs fine, but I need an air conditioner here it gets to >100. ~120k miles but 20-21 years is a long time for a car I would say.

    Car Buying Help

    I drive an extremely low amount (~4.5k miles/yr). Should this be a factor pushing me towards a newer car (1-2 years old) over something cheaper (3-4 years old)? Basically, my reasoning is that virtually any used car is going to have a lot more miles on it per year than I would put on it...

    When I do dumbell exercises, particularly chest press and chest fly it feels like my hands are way more tired than my arms/chest. I usually have to stop because I feel like my hands are giving out way before I feel that way for arms/chest. Does this mean I'm doing it wrong or do I just have...

    So I've lost about 15 pounds through improving my diet alone (no more ice cream, reduced fast food/soda) over the last 4 months. It is not record progress, but I think I'm doing pretty well. If I keep it up I'm on target to lose another 10 or so over the next 4. Is it possible to work out...

    The 200$ nexus 4 was only 8gb which is unacceptably small in my opinion. 16gb would be 250$ if it even exists. I've never really understood skimping 100$ on a device you expect to use for multiple years so I would get a 5, but that is just me. Better screen, more drop resistant, snappier...

    The display ram for panel self refresh is a big part of that battery life. Since someone finally pulled the trigger on including it we may see it start to show up in high end phones and (hopefully) laptops over the next year.

    I'm 5' 10'' 185. Every online calculator says that at total couch potato status I need ~2150 calories to maintain weight. For a month I've been on 2000 calories or less per day, and exercising regularly. Weigh myself today and I've lost 1 pound total to 184. Rustled....

    Other future phones worth considering are the LG G2, Sony Z1 which looks fucking hot, and a little farther out it seems like there will be a Nexus 5 based on the G2. Pretty much any phone you pick these days will double or more the battery life of the Gnex, which was really its Achilles heel.

    I'm trying to stick to 2000 calories a day. If I under eat on one day how much can I eat the next day extra and come out at roughly the same "spot"? Yesterday I ate 1440 calories for whatever reason. If I eat 2560 today is that really the same as eating 2k both days?

    I'm looking for something lighter/more portable or I'd be all over that y510p deal. 6.4 lbs is just too much for me. Looking for something with haswell + non shit screen + under 5 lbs is pretty much my only criteria. I guess I'd also like to spend under 800 or so. Does this even exist? I...

    4.5 inch screen and 720p resolution on a phone that won't be out for a long long time seems like huge dealbreakers to me, especially at 830$. 32 mil is also a pretty ridiculous goal - hype only gets you so far.
