I haven't played a Steam game in like 2 years but by god you will take out my PC from my cold dead hands. **1 year, and I still play games off the Blizzard launcher, so cast me in with the doomed---

Well yeah. X-COM was on sale recently. In case I lose my job I could really get back into fighting aliens.

Do you know why Frozen Throne would poo poo the bed hard with no changes to my system? I updated it to the latest version and now I can't get over 4 frames per second, online or off. I already did the fblock = 0 in Regedit, no one else has anything. Can't uninstall and reinstall either.

The problem isn't really smartphones themselves, it's peoples' attitudes of expecting everyone to be available to be contacted at every waking hour of the day every day. The people who expect you to carry on a text conversation all day and complain when you take too long to respond etc are the real problem. Just because you can be on call for your friends/family/work all the time doesn't mean you should.

It's very vexing. Also what thread is this?

Don't give me some crap about what the cat/dog "wants". They don't "want" anything the way we do, they just need sustenance and will take whatever else they can annoy you enough into giving them. Don't let your pet bully you, they'll be fine if they don't go outside every night to gently caress and kill some baby birds/rabbits..

No GTA is worth playing aside from san andreas. It's the perfect one. I tried older and the newer ones and they suck. I like to be the carl johnson and expand my territory listening to all my exes live in texas and i love a rainy night. The clunky controls (especially with flying) and stuff are just part of the fun.

GTA 4 was awful. No one ever finished it. San Andreas feat: Sam Jackson as Denzel in Training Day was perfect. GTA 5 was amazing. Starts out with Fargo. Movie references abound. GTA V online is pretty rough. Rock* just gets hacked over and over again to the point where the single player game can be lost because someone did something to a server. You have to bail out when money starts dropping from the sky because all accounts are going to be banned.

I just want to be one guy. also the driving is too realistic. In SA I just plow through everything to get to my destination and usually go through at least a car or two to travel around 10 blocks. I played 5 for like 5 hours and kept flying out the windshield and it just wasn't fun.

But if it's a thunderstorm it's a little more nervewracking. Try walking to work at a government lab as an intern with no access to any building except your trailer tucked way in the back and nothing to hide under and it starts hailing. Hail hurts.

That's when you hold your head to your chest and feel the ice stones hit your neck and back. Unless it's that baseball-sized hail, in which case you're hosed.

Once when he was in his basement, the other time he was driving. There is a 1 in 700,000 chance of any of us being struck by lightning one time. He was hit twice while in the apparently safest locations to be in during a storm. As far as I know, he hasn't developed the ability to shoot electricity from his hands, but one time during Easter dinner, he passed himself the salt by just looking at it.

I agree and once spent like twenty minutes insisting to a cop that I was legit just walking in the storm because I liked it. He stopped me apparently because he saw me cut through an alley, which is doubly silly because if I was walking to actually get somewhere I would be even more likely to cut through an alley during a storm. Joke’s on him cuz he had to stand out in the rain interrogating me. Also agreed re: small hail

I don't know if this is really an unpopular opinion: There is no need for the keyboard on a phone or tablet to be in QWERTY, unless you're one of those gods that can thumb-touch-type. I wish physical keyboards would make a comeback, I hate getting errors in crossword puzzles just because my thumb HOVERED over the wrong letter.

I really wish there was a San Andreas Stories like there was a Vice City and Liberty City Stories so we could see some more of San Andreas in a throwback game. Set it like in 1989 before CJ returns with the minor variations in the other Stories games that make everything the same, yet different because it’s a few years earlier.

I'm sure you can download a replacement for the default keyboard that shows the keys in alphabetical order, but QWERTY is easier to find letters on for anyone who's used to that layout from every computer they've ever used in their entire life.

The bombings of nagasaki and hiroshima, and the firebombing of tokyo should be labeled as war crimes and subject to reparations to the families involved from the US government. People who defend that poo poo belong in prison.

doverhog posted:Do you wanna extend that same schema to Dresden or Berlin? Sure, all of them were criminal acts that disproportionally targeted civilians. Somehow this is controversial in the US but basically nowhere else. The only reason the Dresden firebombing wasn't considered a war crime at the time was because the Hague conventions did not yet apply to airborne warfare, a legal technicality but clearly not an ethical issue. It was murder, mostly of women and children, especially in the case of Tokyo which was mostly women and children and which was bombed largely out of racist motives.
