Oh - and for those asking about my food: Last night, I grilled a nice marbled ribeye that I finished in a cast iron pot for a good char. The key to properly grilling a steak is to allow it to rest at room temperature for 30 mins prior to grilling, and season it with nothing but salt (Kosher salt is best as it covers more surface area) and ground black pepper. Second, you want to make sure you're using high eat to sear in the juices. When thrown on the grill, watch to see as the blood emerges from the top of the steak (generally around the 2 minute mark). Do not flip before you see this. After you flip, you should give it another 1.5 to 2 mins. I gave it less because I then threw it in a cast iron with butter, thyme and garlic to finish of the sear (and a medium-rare temp). With the steak, I made some brown rice and quinoa and a side of sauteed baby spinach. This morning, I had leftover steak so I sliced it thin and made two eggs over-easy, pan fried tomatoes, and some feta for a quick and easy, healthy meal.

also im pretty sure the point was proven by the smart blog + escapist article -> 18,0000 word C. Roberts rant they're paranoid of FUD and have gone to... well, FUD levels of response. Tracking customers' other online aliases to make sure they're not goons, etc. anyone who has done real business, or even known a real businessperson, sees the lunacy in this reactionary policy. noone who has nothing to hide BOTH shouts 'i have nothing to hide' AND hides things. They can spin a lot of poo poo with their whale community, so what is it they're hiding, as opposed to revealing and disarming? e: they're totally not vampires, just irrationally fearful of sunlight. and stakes. garlic is just an allergy, really.

Put some olive oil in your skillet and set it over a medium-high heat until the oil begins to turn brown. Take your steak out of the fridge or freezer and cook until well. Season with ketchup to taste.

I agree with this approach for a ribeye - if you season and char the marbling properly, it's even better than the meat - melts in your mouth like butter. At least on a good cut. Most places gently caress it up royally and you wind up with a bunch of chewy gristle left on the plate that represents 50% of what you paid for. I didn't intend for this to become a Star Citizen analogy when I wrote it.

Man I've been following games and their development for a long time. There was even a time I was thinking about actually pursuing it as a career choice until I realized that I'd make more money and get just a tad bit more respect in gender politics at an actual corporation than a gaming developer. I've never seen such a defense force for a game that has shown minimal actual "game". I mean Wildstar had more to show at this point in time at it's development cycle that started off an entire hype train that got massively derailed when people realized that while they were nostalgic for old-school WoW, they weren't down for playing a modern old-school WoW. (Also the developers took a good base game and continued finding ways to shoot themselves in the foot) Star Citizen and it's horrendous PTU aside they've shown nothing in their "open development" and what they have shown is nothing but a buggy mess while it's defenders consistently misuse phrases and words to the point that it seems more like they are reassuring themselves of their "pledge" rather than defending it from attack. I know Derek has used the term "glorified crysis mod" but even then I'm sure some mod's have better stability and gunplay than whatever is going on with SC.

I ported assets into Unreal Engine 4 (had to completely re-texture them), and was able to reproduce the Flight Model I wrote in Unity over in UE4 fairly accurately in a weekend. I also took a crack at the particle system which is the superheated debris flying past the spaceship you'll see in the video below. It's still wonky, and not connected to ship speed yet, but it's there. 10/10 Better than Star Citizen in 1/100th of the time

MOMA: If the current PTU is an old codebase with a shiny new one hidden away why are they bothering to take bug reports for it? Why are they creating focused bug testing groups under an NDA to test an out of date code base that they've already surpassed in private?

ManofManyAliases posted:Nothing wrong with taking my stance and defending it. I'm of the opinion that, although they are claiming open development (at least more open than some other projects we see), there is still much under wraps that won't be shown. You're right - there's nothing inherently wrong with taking any stance and defending it. However, there is ample historical evidence to draw from that indicates something other than better things "under wraps". You seem to be looking at this like CIG is a stage magician - he just put the woman in the box, put 10 swords through it, and has now dramatically opened the lid. The audience holds its breath and the magician looks inside. You are the audience member who is thinking "This guy is a professional magician who knows what he's doing. Despite all visible evidence to the contrary, I happen to believe that the woman will pop out of this box unharmed. This guy does this for a living - this is his bread and butter. She's going to stand up and it's going to be great." Goons are the people in the audience who did our homework. We found out that this magician has changed names and moved from state to state to hide the accumulation of sword-riddled bodies he left in his wake. We heard the muffled scream, we see the blood dripping out of the bottom of the box. You are the audience member believing it's part of the act - it's all special effects, and when she pops up, smiling and unharmed, we will be shamed in our hating of this great magician. What you're missing here is that goons don't want this magician's assistant to die. It's quite the contrary. But when the magician opens the lid and looks inside, we are not confident as you that his next words will be "TA-DAA!"

inside the mind of the moomers: He feels like he is 'winning', because people are responding to him seriously. so you might as well stop that anyways... Serious responses ALSO show him to be an idiot but that is within his plans. He is willing to look like an idiot to show us he is not one. also talking to this idiot about steak, really? for shame, goons. he is probably vegan.
