You can train your dog to play as the dog using kinect. Real next level poo poo.

I'm kind of tempted to by my dog a :bustem: camo harness. It wouldn't serve any real utility at all, but it would be amusing for a while.

Dog can carry his own stuff on walks, *and* most of them have a handle so you can carry the dog. Owns, I'd say.

People mad that the new CoD has a playable dog character before it has a playable woman character. I guess they don't get dogs out number women in SF units by a pretty massive margin.

How does the number of dogs and the number of magical flying knifewizards in SF units compare?

Who is Admiral Aken Bosch, and what is that old scoundrel up to?
COD4 had a female chopper pilot you save, and then you are both immediately incinerated by a nuke.

edit: COD2 also had female NPCs during the Russian campaign.

He has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah . But whoever is forced by necessity, neither desiring it nor transgressing its limit, there is no sin upon him. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful

Estimated cost to get a :bustem: harness for my dog and outfit it with a hydration bladder, and pocket for foodstuffs looks like ~$300. I'll think about it.

So it's basically a giant fuckoff spigot mortar?

Are they aiming it, or are they just pointing it in the general direction of the baddies and hoping the flying dustbin manages to hit something?

They've been using it to attack the Youth Camp and Brick Factory bases, details of which are here. They are out in the countryside, so not risk to civilians. Someone noted that these could also be filled with chlorine gas and used WW1 style.

No, that's not a scale model- it's a full sized replica of Ecuador's first and only satellite, just launched, and that apparently got smashed this morning by a piece of 1980s soviet space junk.

Article about the HULC in the Register here http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/10/28/hulc_gen_2/.

The Register is an IT news site, but it's also quite good at military tech news with a retired Royal Navy officer at the desk.

And there aren't that many news sites where you get headlines like this: Israeli robot trouser snake 'too big' to penetrate backdoors. :v:
