Gaming / Re: Bad RNG
« on: August 15, 2015, 01:31:42 PM »
Destiny's an easy target.

I really dislike RNG in general except when it's used to set up initial conditions. When gameplay is based on RNG and not skill, it's no longer a game but a tedious slot machine. An exception is Borderlands, where you can generally be confident that you won't be wanting for new, better, and more funs guns and gear until endgame, where you start to see more raid elements and more of a grind for the best stuff. At that point, having a cheat program is pretty fun.
I only recently played through BL2 and BLTPS again, and I don't think I kept the same guns and gear for more than a level or two throughout the entire game. Can't remember what it's like in the first one, but a few pieces of gear / guns aside, I feel like you still change out your stuff very often. Not that this makes it bad in any way though.

Yeah, and some stuff I'd find myself holding onto for many levels just because I liked the feel of it. An RNG that showers you in really cool gear is great; when you're drowning in crap for hours and hours, with a rare good find here and there, is where it becomes an annoyance.

Runescape's forums. I tried AOL chatrooms as a little kid, but tested to see if there was a profanity filter by saying 'fuck' and I got banned and my parents got an email with the chat log. Good times.

Reminder that Trump is still leading the polls for the republican nomination.

Part of me just hopes it's a result of news corporations picking the most provocative polling results from a pool of various studies. But I tend to trust Gallup polls, and he's in the lead in all Republican brackets.

How old will Nemo be?
old enough ( ͡͡ ° ͜ ʖ ͡ °)

Old enough for his dad to turn into a female so Nemo can fuck him? Because that's totally what clown fish do when they lose their top females.

No. Early ballots eliminate a need for more time, and it's really just more vote-pandering from the left.

The problem isn't convenience, it's that 67% of voters just don't give a shit.

From a scientific perspective, around 400 sufficiently random voters could compromise a statistically accurate pool of Americans.

The Flood / Re: What is your favorite myth/fable?
« on: August 14, 2015, 07:28:52 PM »
Probably the Ancient Near East flood myth, famously seen in the story of Noah's Ark and The Epic of Gilgamesh. It's just incredible how such a similar story is present in hundreds of different cultures, many in isolation.

Who the fuck cares if your wallet matches your outfit?

shut all fucking air traffic and travel down in that region, and essentially box the place closed shut.

And then the oil market crashes and we face a global depression.

Tough shit then. That's what we get for building an interlinked system compounded on failures. We get some neat upsides, but if one single domino completely flops then the whole thing starts to fold.

It's not about a single domino, it's about the stability of a whole region that that the world relies upon for oil. It's not something to be flippant about.

Grey is really not any less formal than brown either.

Totes is, bro.

In order:

Black, dark brown, burgundy, grey, ox blood, light brown, etc. Disregarding any brogueing, style, and material.

There's quite a bit that is artistic, well-animated, and carried by a unique story. Just get away from the shojo and shonen crap.

Not if you wear grey shoes and grey belts.

If you're going to wear grey shoes, absolutely don't wear a grey belt (in fact, just never wear a grey belt). Grey is less formal than dark brown and should be matched with other colors in a semiformal suit or blazer combination. At that point you're wearing the shoes as a statement or to make your outfit more casual, so matching isn't a priority (or really desirable).

And if he's dropping $90 on a wallet, I would hope that he has to wear suits or jackets regularly or else it's just expensive flair.

Always brown. It'll match shoes and belts far more often than gray would.

No need to "ensure stability" or "rebuild the region" or any of that. ISIS just needs to be eliminated.

This is literally the mentality that allowed ISIS to grow in the region.
"ISIS needs to be eliminated" is the mentality that allowed ISIS to grow?

Makes sense.

No, I'm talking about the mentality that we can eliminate a terrorist group and then just leave. It's just naive.

Pretty fun. Kind of slow, though. I kind of wish it was more roguelike where you'd be replaying it numerous times instead of investing your time in a single decent vault.

Anyone have tips for getting caps without buying lunchboxes?
Always have someone out in the wasteland. It's not quite as dangerous as it may seem as long as they dont have a rusty .32 and a regular jumpsuit

Yeah, my guy died because I didn't pay attention to it at work and now I'm waiting to get 200 more caps, which is taking a very long time. It's been pretty stagnant around 15 dwellers. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong; everyone's happy, I have plenty of resources, but caps are so slow I can basically only make a single room per day.

Anyone who claims that they have never pirated anything is a liar
Yeah, and I speed occasionally, too. I'm not going to make lame excuses about how it's somehow legal or safe.

I'm not sure how people still think making an unlicensed copy is not tantamount to theft when it comes to intellectual property.

What do B's translate to SAT scores, roughly?

Remember when liberals argued from strong positions of Keynesianism, using capitalism to benefit the poor and disenfranchised instead of just insisting the government own everything and suck up crippling debt?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.
