The Flood / Re: The Glaring Whiteness of Post-Apocalyptic Films
« on: June 22, 2015, 09:20:00 AM »
I'm having a difficult time with this... why does it matter, specifically?
I'm still thinking it over, and I'll look up more info online. I know that it bothers me; I'll get back to you on the reasoning when I have a complete statement that satisfies me.
It's nothing against you or this thread, more the article itself; it's trying to generate serious discussion about race and gender when really it's just a fucking film about a post-apocalyptic world (and even then it's a bit on the crazy side).

It's trying to stir shit when there isn't any shit to stir.

I mixed lemonade with porridge oats.

Also, not exactly weird but I did this repeatedly; I used to put fuck-tons of sugar into tea because I didn't realise you had to stir it to mix in, and the top never tasted sweet enough. By the time it did, half of my tea was basically "tea-syrup".

"Americanised" versions of words, i.e. letters removed or replaced

Favorite, color, or specialized, for example. Also Sulfur. These are all wrong.

EDIT: I'll broaden it further to just words that have several methods of spelling, e.g.  "Volcano/Volcanoe" "Volcanos/Volcanoes"
Bro, the British treated your people worse than the blacks and Indians.

You don't even speak your own language. You speak a language imposed upon you by the British.
Don't even get me started...

But still, so are you. Hell, if Britain didn't have such a substantial claim on America you'd probably be speaking Dutch.

because having superfluous "u"s where they don't need to be is such a good thing, or what

I put it down to the English language (UK) having it's methods of spelling drilled into me enough that it looks wrong otherwise, same as when Americans say Aluminium, chips and cookies wrong.

Serious / Re: Should A.I.'s be treated as living beings?
« on: June 21, 2015, 02:49:52 PM »
Never--I mean, we've had this discussion before, but there would be no purpose whatsoever in even giving AI sentience, beyond "because we can" (which is, of course, the dumbest possible reason to do anything).
I wonder how many times we've considered doing things, "because we can".

The US got as far as planning to not just land on the moon (and they did), but also a plan to blow it up...

But OT, they should be considered though I wouldn't consider them at the moment as they are pretty limited in what they can do for "independent" thought. Give it a couple of decades and a substantial ramp-up in AI, maybe.

Not really. I moved away half way through my life so all my old friends I don't really know anymore.

Would've had 2 or 3 though.

At some point I'll have to get him an axe, like this motherfucker, but for now I'll just rip him a few CD's since he doesn't have internet.
I'd figure an Irish kid would just get his dad a bottle of whiskey for father's day

Aw hell naw my Dad hates whiskey. Guinness or Wine is more his forté.

I think we need to pin a thread telling people about things like the Skype chat and plug.dj and the stream group, and lock all threads that come up about it.


OH WAIT WE HAVE PINNED THAT THREAD!

Seriously, these threads should be locked, invite people over Skype or PM or something.

Why does this bother you.

The D and G are a tad close for my eyes but it is readable.

I changed my avatar yesterday for obvs reasons, modified the fallout 4 poster to look similar to the cover of Fallout 3.

Septagon / Re: quick question: how did this community start?
« on: June 20, 2015, 06:45:28 PM »
I swear there was at least two pro-board forums before Cheat volunteered to take us in here.

Well THAT was a leap in the dark.
There was one for sure, there might've been another, but iirc that was taken down asap due to some drama shit before Cheat opened this place up.

Yeah, it lasted a day or two before shit from the last forum spilled over and led to the shutting down of the forum before here.

I joined on the hurriedly put together one, then migrated here.

Futurama.

It had two perfect endings (considering that at the time The Devil's Hand Are Idle Playthings was going to be the last one until it got rebooted).

-V.A.T.S. has received some slight overhauls. It no longer completely pauses the action, and critical shots are no longer random. If you look at the videos, you'll notice a "critical" bar on the bottom of the screen that the player fills. Once it is fully filled you can decide when to use it. Your luck skill determines how fast the bar increases, and there are perks that dig into how criticals work and how you use them.
Interesting. I wonder how this will apply to sneak kills... no more OHK Crit-kills from high powered weapons?
That's a good point. Maybe a high enough sneak vs the enemy's level will guarantee a critical hit?
We can only wait and see. Another thing I've noticed upon reading again...if Critical shots aren't random anymore, why is the Luck skill involved with it? Choosing when I can use it is totally the opposite of how Luck works.

Fallout 4 has a full weather system that sends radiation storms across the world. 
...so they can drift into settlements I'd assume. That could be bad if they have non-essential npcs wandering around outside during one of these (and if the npcs actually react to rads at all, unlike the previous Fallouts)

« on: June 20, 2015, 01:53:36 PM »
Eh, I prefer my name rather than my username which was born out of it. As it is my nickname irl is "Irish" anyway so I'm nearly there.

It's weird having the same name as one of your grandparents (or higher relations), especially when they're dead. It's a tad creepy looking at my Grandad's grave when it says "Here lies Séamus"
"Irish"
I don't follow.

Nah, will probably have to now. Google told me it's Captain Philips?

I'm having a hard time figuring out what they could remaster too. Re-imagine, maybe, but really what else could they do.

Plug.Deej is a soverign state not part of Sep7agon's.

If Tblocks is being a communist dictator over there, well, you're fucked.

Well, not exactly.

There's already 2 other plug. rooms that have kinda superseded the original.
