The Flood / Re: The autistic guy in my class is hilarious
« on: January 13, 2016, 06:34:35 AM »
Guy used to pretend to be a car.

Smart kid, but always turned up to lessons brumming and screeching, and "put the handbrake on" when he sat down.

There was a kid on Malcolm in the Middle who did that


Oh shit yeah there was. He didn't "take the wheel" or anything, it was just the noises.

I get it after playing a few characters.

E.g. Skyrim. First started as a heavy armour and weapons guy on 360, did as much as possible until level 50 and then just got...bored.

Trying again now as an archer but the early quests which I've done already and the repetitive visits to some dragon dungeon or some quest location do get boring quickly. Only the middle to late game have I gotten into it because I have some decent gear.

Same with Minecraft. I cba to restart a new world knowing I'll have to mine and re-create  some milestones (nether portals, finding a stronghold, etc) what I need to start again and build a new house, so I just teleport myself a few thousand blocks away with a chest of my needed/valuable resources and restart there.

I've avoided it for mornings recently and after a period of nearly falling asleep in lectures I'm back to being alert in the morning...ish.

Coffee during assignments does wonders though, and is a great fat burner what with the metabolism increase.

The Flood / Re: How would you describe yourself?
« on: January 12, 2016, 04:23:11 PM »
A thin pale figure who's shy to those he doesn't know but lively to those he does. I can deal with periods of silence and have been told I'm a patient person (though really I am just grumping in my thoughts)

I follow the stereotype of being Irish very well, too well. I enjoy Guinness and rewatching Father Ted, I bake soda bread (the best bread in existence) and potatoes, etc.

Pretty forgetful and scatterbrained at times, but with a burst of energy I can become obsessively organised and clean, and sorta know what's going on. Sorta

Did I mention I'm Irish?

So...

Did it have a brain, was it for all intents and purposes an alive person?

No, it's incredibly misleading for the doctor to say the fetus was "technically alive". The lump of tissue was alive in the same way a tumor is alive; it is composed of living cells, but it was not a living fetus by any interpretation.

Ah right.

The thought of that thing being possibly aware of it's existence would be... bleurgh.

Should'a gone all the way and added DNA-security based explosive to it.

Seriously though, while it sounds great in theory that big ol' box stuck on the pistol looks unwieldy and appears to be more of a hindrance than a help. Designing a whole weapon around security, maybe, but then you have the problem of being attacked by Billy Criminal with an old AK who has an extra millisecond advantage on you.

A good way to expand your horizons without all that experimental nonsense could be this awesome 1996/1997 playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgDP5UKLWaCBWVTfT9nGf8okbZ85RkdRq

come on man, the 90s is so much better than anything we have today

There's no Beck, that playlist is invalid.

The Flood / Re: Congratulation you found a genie lamp
« on: January 12, 2016, 07:59:52 AM »
#1: Infinite magic genie lamps.
#2: The ability to learn and understand anything immediately after I'm exposed to it (topics, languages, dance moves, etc...). Sorta like the Dragonborn can shortcut learning shouts, but with real things instead.
#3: The ability to create wealth when needed. Don't need to carry a wallet, I just always happen to have the exact amount to buy something or give to someone else in my pocket.

#∞: Whatever else comes to mind, what with all the lamps. Might wish a pocket dimension to store them for now.

There's a place for experimental music, but I don't really think it should be sold off as "proper" music.

Whatever though, someone clearly thought it was decent enough to be sold as an album, much like Beck's earlier shit:
YouTube

Literally wtf.

TLOU Remastered

Also, WarThunder. For the tanks (the airborne controls are a bit fucked and need a lot of fiddling if you don't like the default controls)

It's impossible to get nothing...although Black Holes probably come close (although even then, they have gravity soooo...)
by many standards black hole are more thing than we are thing

I meant "close as" to true nothing in the sense is they're in the vacuum of space and have no light either.

Of course they are something, they have an astounding gravitational force. But that's my point, true nothingness is impossible. If you were able to have a thick lead box containing a vacuum, truly devoid of any particles at all there would still be the forces of gravity acting within, and that can't be removed or blocked off.

theyre also like

a ton of matter

Ah, shit. Tired me forgot about that. Disregard the Blackhole part.

Gaming / Re: Bioware dialogue trees in a nutshell
« on: January 10, 2016, 05:44:08 PM »
Fallout 3 had shades of this, which I neglected to mention in my review.

While the dialogue options were clear and told you exactly what you were going to say, there was no way to tell how the NPC was going to respond. You might have actually chosen the "rude" option when you thought it seemed more polite in your head.

If you thought Fallout 3 was problematic, Fallout 4 took a dump on the dialog choices:

A/X: Yes
B/Circle: No (for now)
X/Square: Something funny for interesting dialog OR be a dick and possibly get into a fight about it.
Y/Triangle:


Smoother, definitely (No more of that "I wanna talk about something else... GOODBYE") but at the cost of choice.

Skipped to the parts where they just said "No" (I cba to have the whole marriage proposal things build up for 7 minutes). Can totally understand why all of them ran off afterwards. I'd imagine most of those couples never spoke to each other again after that.


A good lesson here; don't gamble, kids.

Gaming / Re: Have you ever forced yourself to play a videogame
« on: January 10, 2016, 02:06:28 PM »
I would say Halo CE, but I still haven't finished it. Same goes for the old Call of Duty games when they had some seriously long campaigns. After I finished Finest Hour I never touched it again because the final American missions were a bitch to finish (bastard MG42 positions in corridors to simulate difficulty) and the fucking "Defend the Tractor factory" mission for the Russian campaign was like playing a Nazi Duckhunt.

More recently it would be DAH!: Path of the Furon. I thought the game sucked by the time I completed the first location's missions (Vegas, I think), but I'd spent £40 on what I thought would be a safe purchase considering the previous games in the series and only once I finished it, it became a tad more enjoyable.

...only for the game save to corrupt meaning if I wanted to have fun on the game I'd have to go through all the missions again. Fuck that, sold it a week later.
