Really? Why would they even need a QTE there? Just script the character to do that. What, would that "break the immersion"? Can't break it any more than "press a button to bury you friend". 95

And lighter IIRCLOL>mfw most cheap sks is oriental shitbut /k/ told me wasr a shit However, there are a few ways to bend the rules. Normally, semiauto centrefire rifles are limited to five, and semiautomatic pistols to ten (including rimfires). Bolts, pumps, levers, and rimfire rifles have no limit. There are two exceptions to these basic rules. First, the M1 Garand can use it's 8 round en bloc clip. Second, the Lee Enfield is limited to a maximum capacity of 10 rounds (Because the magazines were compatible with the Charlton Automatic Rifle (A WWII prototype that may only have one active example in a museum, but the rules don't have to make sense.) But, if a magazine designed for a pistol or bolt action rifle functions in a semiautomatic rifle, the semiauto rifle can use the maximum legal capacity of those magazines. Ex, the magazines for the AIA .308 Lee Enfield function in M1A type rifles, so 10 rounders can be used. AR15 pistol magazines can also be used in rifles accepting AR mags. Second, if a magazine designed for a specific caliber can be loaded with and function with a different caliber, you can load the magazine with those rounds in excess of the limit. .50 Beowulf magazines can feed .223 rounds. There's a company here just making .50 Beowulf mags that can fit up to 15 rounds of .223. Now someone needs to make a .50 Beowulf pistol lol. 96

Beijing has been tightening the noose recently. No wonder the Hong Kong Chinese are protesting... 98

When you don't have a lot of paid work experience, it's hard to put a resume together.
What you need to do is draw on the work, volunteering, or educational experience that is the most relevant to the job you are applying for, and highlight the soft, transferrable skills that you have, in addition to the technical skills the job requires. You may not be able to meet all the technical qualifications for the job, but if you can zero in on those soft skills and express that you are a well rounded and motivated individual, you may get a shot. You can spin the voting thing by highlighting the community service element, which could be useful if you decide to stick to teaching. You can also highlight technical skills with the Excel seminar and using the smartphone app. I wouldn't write off the substitute teacher thing if I were you. There are DOZENS of very useful soft skills you can pick up and emphasize from it. Dealing with different groups of people, organizing and presenting a study plan, communicating with the main teacher as a team (TEAMWORK EXPERIENCE IS A HUGE RESUME PLUS!), etc. 113
Serious / Re: What is your view of Conservatives?« on: November 01, 2014, 11:05:30 PM »
Well, ours went from Contempt of Parliament to Majority Government last election, so they must be doing something right.
The "Bible Thumper" types that hold so much sway in the Republican Party in the US have been largely purged from our Conservative Party. You will never hear any MP open their mouths about abortion or gay marriage, simply because the party does not want to touch those political footballs with at 10 foot pole. The rest of the party's policies are typical right-leaning. Lowering taxes, promoting free trade and economic development, balancing the budget, tough on crime stances, improving national defense (at least more than the Liberals), bombing ISIS back to whatever came before the Stone Age, etc. However, I'd be much happier if they drop-kicked that Temporary Foreign Worker Program into the nearest trash bin. That thing has been abused to no end and is out of control. 114
