YOUTUBE: Star Citizen: Calling All Devs - Life Support & Phoenix Update On Life Support Systems in ships: “The way we envisage them...” It would be interesting to revisit all the Calling All Devs to date and break down answers by general categories to know how many answers are theorycrafting the future versus “we’re about to finish (feature X).” G0RF fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Jun 4, 2018 |

I wonder how he feels about the Mystery Method. reverend crabhands posted:I've seen many players marvel at how much there is in there and comment (very genuinely and very enthusiastically) how in love they are with the game, just how loving awesome it is. This echoes my experience when I started playing. Solid opinion. I like it because it crosses over Euro Truck Simulator and Universe Sandbox, but I've never seen a Thargoid at this point, and am content to fly around in space looking at the pretty. Also the sound design should make you weep once you really pick up on the nuances. Beet Wagon posted:Because he is that weird kind of racist that believes having an asian wife is better than having a non-asian wife. It’s literally a point of pride for him and it’s insanely weird and creepy. It's part of the incel axis as the Asian women are supposedly more submissive, but that trope usually doesn't come into contact with reality much, and there's the whole weeaboo angle. So yes, Weird _and_ creepy, but also objectifying. I can only hope she kickboxes.

It's how he talks about his wife and kids- everyone in his life is described in terms of how they relate to him, the value they provide for him. He talks about them like objects.

Zaphod42 posted:This one drives me insane. Hey, so how old is Daenarys Taergaryan[sic] when she gets pimped out to the Horse lord, he asks, knowingly. Nudge nudge, wink, wink. So enough of sideways vagina talk; Cultist Simulator. This game is produced by the guy behind Fallen London, so if you like that particular arrangement of words, you should actually enjoy this. The game itself warns you up front that you're supposed to experiment, and that it's simulating being a cultist in the 1920s, but rendered out on a tabletop with a bunch of verb timers ('work', 'study', 'dream' and more) and cards. Hang on, you say, that's a bit lo-fi. Yes, it really loving is. But it gives rise to some really interesting gameplay that I can't really do more than generalize about. Each run informs a new run, so my first cultist, Sandi, barely managed to decode a single piece of lore before falling ill and dying. My second run, Jared, a bright young thing with an inheritence, managed to find Sandi's diaries, and continued her research with a lot more success before finally succumbing to madness (accumulating three dread ends a run, contentment counters dread, and restlessness decays into dread). My current run is a police officer, but it's going to end badly since the first thing I did was burn some evidence. You literally combine cards on verbs and wait for the countdown, which seems really simple, but gives rise to some weird emergence, because it makes you feel like you're constantly dancing on the edge of madness and staying ahead of meddling investigators while trying to get to whatever power or knowledge that you're attempting to get to. Do you keep your day job on the lockdown? Running out of money is the same as death in the end, but that work time could free you up for further research. It's really quite a strange game for it's simplicity and reminds me of the tabletop arkham horror, although I've still not scratched the surface.  The lore and the one rite I researched are down the left. Five schools are repesented, I think there are six or seven in total. Jared is a scholar of sanskrit and is suffering from decrepitude because of ill-health. Poppy Lascelles, at the top, has an offer I have to refuse for the time-being, and on the right are the places that I've unlocked and a single piece of dread. If I recall correctly, 'Work' is currently painting something horrible, which means that the 'position at Glover & Glover' will decay into 'Trouble at work' because I didn't turn up. The orange timer is 'time passes', which consumes one fund per cycle, the green one is an interrupt that I don't recall. I've gotten as far as starting a cult, but I can't seem to keep hold of believers. One went insane, and another just never returned one night. Downsides: Cards are tiny; the lower bar scales with a slider in the settings and you can zoom in and out of the table, but it's still difficult to see sometimes, and you can lose cards under cards. I worry about the RNG in the long term, but for the moment it's an interesting and novel game. Hav fucked around with this message at 20:38 on Jun 4, 2018 |

This goes without saying, but nobody do either of these please. Hav posted:It's part of the incel axis as the Asian women are supposedly more submissive, but that trope usually doesn't come into contact with reality much, and there's the whole weeaboo angle. I think one of the main reasons it's creepy is because it's such a weird, warped version of racism. It's almost easier to accept the existence of some guy that's like "I hate foreigners" because your brain immediately clocks him as a weirdo racist and you ignore him (or elect him or whatever). The weird fetishization of a whole group of people has all kinds of crazy undertones to it - is this guy some kind of insane weeb, or one of those weird bro-dudes who believes you can categorize how people are "in the sack" based on their ethnicity? Is it some kind of weird colonialism thing? That's what always gets me, the colonialism aspect of it. Cause it's never just "Dude I married an Asian chick" (which is bad enough as it is) - there's always something in there about how she can't spell or whatever that just seems super reminiscent of the old white guys who would marry like 25 year old Vietnamese girls and treat them like they weren't real people and the whole thing just makes my loving skin crawl.

I actually knew a guy who did this. Way back in high school, one of my distant friends was from an upper class (for that town) family. Lived with his mom in a giant empty mansion with basically no amenities because the dad, who controlled all spending, was a tremendous raging prick and spent all of his time overseas so why should he buy furniture? Eventually he divorced his wife and came home with wife 2.0, a tiny little asian woman who spoke no english and as far as we could tell was basically his sex slave and abused maid. This was around the end of HS so I didn't see where it went from there, but the kid was so screwed up that I think he completely failed to launch and went off to live with his mother for the next decade or two. He was also super into EQ to the detriment of virtually every other aspect of his life, which was really sad to watch. I suspect he'd be prime Citizen material these days.

DapperDon posted:This is the epitome of petty bullshit. Who does poo poo like that? Simple answer? Goons. But the real, more complex answer is that everybody has their trigger. In that particular case it was a contractor(?? I think so anyway) who saw a DIY dude doing something he considered to be very dangerous and being unrepentant about it, and the guy felt he needed to intervene. Not saying that makes it right, just that people have their own weird little points where they feel the need to get involved outweighs the need to not dox people or whatever. Also, that thread is hilarious and definitely worth a read. Pretty sure it's in the goldmine. e: found it.

DapperDon posted:This is the epitome of petty bullshit. Who does poo poo like that? Check out what he did first. The idea that you can slap a new top on an engineered I-beam that's compromised isn't entirely new, but it's very likely to cause loving conniptions because the entire structural integrity of the floor is tied into the thing he cut out.  This triggers me, but I'd simply hurl insults until someone fixed it, like in real life. To everyone that doesn't know; 'engineered' I-beams have an upper and lower of usually MDF or timber separated by a piece of Stirling board for the web. Cutting a piece out of the top of the I-beam reduces the compressive strength of the top of the span, transferring load to the footer via the web. Simply put, don't cut anything load bearing.

I have permission to even use some of the space at Intel Campus if we can get like 20-40 TESTBROS out here. I have been talking about Star Citizen to every exec, engy, marketing manager, accountant, admin, intern, and etc that I know since the kickstarter. They are so sick of hearing about SC from me, but I keep ramming it down there throats. I have recruited a few of them to TESTNW but most of them are just waiting for the game to actually release though the last few demo's and such from RSI have Intel talking.

Another motherfucking ship sale! FULL BURN!!! The money from this ship sale won't even go a percent of a percent toward paying off their crippling debt, much less stoke more enthusiasm from the backers. No sirree - this ship sale has a different purpose - to show would-be investors that the "Star Citizen Brand" is alive and kicking, and the valuation on this project can only go up, up, up! I'd love to think nobody would bail Chris out of this loving mess, but if Star Citizen has proven anything, it's that money and intellect are not necessarily linked. There could be an angel investor out there right now who plans on burning money like The Joker in The Dark Knight. At least until they see how much they'll need to "donate" just to put the company in the black. Nothing screams "solid investment" like pumping hundreds of millions of dollars into a company just to make them flat broke. "Thanks, Mr. Successful Rich Man with Asian Wife, your generous donation has paid off all of CIG's outstanding debts. Now we can walk away scot-free," says Chris, who walks away scot-free.

Chopping down joists is nothing new and nothing wrong when you are either building a sunken showerpan or tub. However all you need to do is sister those now cut down joists with new supporting joists. But somehow this guy never thought to crack a book or ask google? This? This is just someone that lacks the skills needed and thinks a little too much of his own abilities. I am rebuilding an entryway into a Colonial Townhouse on Old Historic Alexandria this week and was only selected because I was able to answer all of the required engineering questions from the historic association that is overseeing the project. I was asked to come in because the other white monkeys failed every one of them. Oh, and before anyone gets their panties on fire, the term white monkey is a phrase in the industry that points to a professional clean cut white guy that poses as the "face" of an immigrant owned/operated and mostly unskilled business to make it seem more legit. There are a lot of them here in DC.
