Stone is awesome. I was in San Diego doing some stuff last summer and got to visit one of their restaurants. Way overpriced. Great beer.
the escondido one? that's their big one with the restaurant. I wasn't a fan of their bistro and menu, definitely over-priced.

Dude I dunno. It was in San Diego, like right across the street from the naval base. Other than that I have no clue.

Hey, what I'm drinking is like, 65% water.
as are most liquid beverages

And people. I'm basically drinking people, Verb.

Cognac from the 70s.
Apparently this bottle is worth about 300 dollars when full.

I've never had brandy. Is it like wine, or closer to liquor?
It's a dessert drink.
I'd say it's very Jewish.

My dad's Jewish, that's fine.

I can't feel my teeth.

Fuck teeth, you don't need 'em. Alcohol only comes in liquid form.

Well MovieBob disliked the movie within the first 10 minutes.

He fucking shreds it in his review.

Oh shit, I had no idea he was making videos again. I stopped following him after Escapist fired him.

Old Fashioned
  • Jim Beam bourbon
  • bitters + simple syrup

About to kill the bottle. Might move on to scotch. It's been a rough week.


If you're imbibing, post your poison.

You can romance your companions, regardless of whether you play as a male or female. Not clear on whether or not this includes robots like Mr. Handy, but here’s hoping.
So, yes to beastiality?

I think we know why he's called 'Mr. Handy'.

I don't need to read shit because I already know it's a good game.

But is Skyrim still a benchmark for modern games?

I tried Googling 'taint' for a funny picture or something to post, but holy shit. Don't search images. Or do, since that's probably what you're about to do now anyway.

Gaming / Details on Fallout 4's skill system
« on: July 24, 2015, 05:46:12 PM »

As always, you'll distribute a pool of points between those seven statistics at the start of the game, but they'll have a much larger impact on how your character develops this time around.

In Fallout 4, every time you level up you're able to unlock or upgrade a perk, giving your character new abilities and proficiencies. The perks you're able to unlock are directly tied to your SPECIAL stats — each stat has 10 perks corresponding to the 10 points you're able to allot to that stat. The more points you have in a given stat, the "deeper" you're able to go: If you have eight strength points, you'll be able to choose between eight of Strength's assigned perks when you level up.

That means there's 70 base perks in Fallout 4 to choose from, including some familiar faces — like a perk that increases the odds of "gibbing" your foes — and some newcomers. The series' Skills system is also tied into the tree, according to Howard. Most perks will also be upgradeable; with those additional ranks included, the progression system offers 275 things to unlock.

So it seems like it's a mix of what they did in Skyrim and traditional skill trees; in this case, there are 70 perks (10 for each attribute) which can be upgraded several times. So less spreadsheet-crunching-roleplaying and more tangible rewards for leveling up. Of course this is probably somewhat polarizing, because many of us are just used to adding a point to one of a dozen skills and not really seeing any significant change to gameplay, but I enjoyed Skyrim's model and think this is a decent improvement.

Additional news from Quakecon:
Spoiler
  • There will be about a dozen possible companions, including Dogmeat, Mr. Handy, Preston Garvey, and ‘Piper,’ a newly-revealed companion who you can meet in Diamond City.
  • Mr. Handy can actually say your name—be it John, or something more ridiculous like “Mr. Fuckface.” He will vocalize it all the same. I can’t wait to see all the offensive and silly names that people come up with! In any case, Mr. Handy is voiced by Stephen Russel, who PC Gamer notes also voiced Garret in Thief. Finally, the inside of Mr. Handy is actually modeled, because I guess Bethesda wants to make sure you can see the details if he’s ever blown up.
  • We’ve already gotten a look at Preston Garvey, as he was a character that was added earlier this year to Fallout Shelter. He is the leader of the Commonwealth Minutemen, a group which needs some serious help. Preston Garvey looks like this:
    Spoiler
  • Dogmeat is based on a real dog, who is named River. Quakecon folks got to see footage of this dog, but we’ll have to settle for a Tweet:
    Spoiler
  • Additionally, you can command your in-game dog to scout areas for items (fetching, looting, and so on.)
  • Piper, the new companion, wears a red leather coat and a newsboy hat.
  • You can romance your companions, regardless of whether you play as a male or female. Not clear on whether or not this includes robots like Mr. Handy, but here’s hoping.
  • Things that are back: bloody mess perk, Super Duper Mart, computer hacking, lockpicking, the Fat Man, and Behemoth mutants. The demo actually ends with the player shooting an atomic bomb at a Behemoth mutant.
  • Book/comic book covers will be more detailed this time around, and you can zoom in and look at them.
  • The leveling system works differently now. Perks are tied to SPECIAL stats, and not levels. Having specific high special stats means having good related perks.
  • It sounds like factions can war with one another. IGN described a scene where the player watched ghouls attacking raiders, and noted that the player had the option to let it happen without interfering. Awesome. Additionally, they also noted that at one point the Brotherhood of Steel appears and joins the player in a battle against raiders.

it's the way i figure the devs wanted it to be played


It's kind of annoying when the default difficulty isn't "the way it's meant to be played". I think Halo did it to inspire replays, but it's weirdly common now.

Serious / Re: Automation will not increase long-term unemployment
« on: July 24, 2015, 01:40:23 PM »
It also makes the average worker more skilled, forcing them to learn more and seek higher qualifications. Automation is great, and I can guarantee that once we reach the point where automation has a lasting impact on employment, it sure as hell won't be the proletariat that stops having to go in to work every day.

Fixed. For reference: You had your hex color codes wrong (5 f's instead of 6) and an argument on the end of the image url. Neither of those is good.

You're the man. I suspected the hex codes were the problem but I didn't know if uploading a picture took priority over those. And the argument at the end of the url ("?1" I believe) should still work; it's how imgur names edited pictures. Thanks for doing that for me.
