Yup. I make a decent living, but don't spend much on myself. And no kids. So I'm glad to find something I can spend my hard-earned money on that will bring me a lot of joy and happiness.

Nice Kanie, very few things better than a nice new gaming rig

According to a recent Politico story, the "allow" side is winning in the vigorous internal debate within the Administration on this issue.

Btw, I finally got that deal I've been waiting on for my new gaming computer. It gets to me June 11th. Soooooo excited! I can finally start playing the big new games!! 14th gen i9 14900KF processor (24 core, 68 MB cache, 2.4-6.0 GHz thermal velocity boost) RTX 4090 GPU (24 GB GDDR6X) 32 GB memory (DDR5, 5600 MT/s) 2 TB SSD

I'm waiting for (and need) many, many mods for BG3 to make it even remotely playable for me, beginning with a 6-person party mod.

Hope you've been well @daven.

If you check 3.07.1318 vs https://regex101.com/r/vkijKf/1/ and https://regex101.com/r/Ly7O1x/3/ (from the link https://semver.org/) you notice that 3.07.1318 it is NOT a valid semantic version, like you said, but NO version (taken from https://pillarsofeternity.fandom.com/wiki/Version) starting from 1.02.0508 (the first one) is a valid semantic version, by this rule (nr. 2, always from https://semver.org/) : But, you can refer to the "build number", the last number in the version, which is always incremental, so the build 1356 (from patch version 3.4.1356) is greater than 1318 (from version number 3.07.1318) and this can tell us that the patch is subsequent to version 3.07.1318 PoeII follows yet another versioning numeration as last number it's not the "overall" build (maybe is it build number "inside" that major/minor version? Only programmers know), but again, version 1.1.0.0035 is subsequent to version 1.01.0064. From version 1.1.0.0035 they stopped using leading zeros for major, minor and patch versions, but they still use for last number. It is to be said that semantic versioning system is not the bible, but indeed, obsidian system is a little weird and it can generate some confusion (as above).

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-attack-rafah-tent-camp-draws-global-condemnation-2024-05-27/ Is amusing to see people that see nothing wrong with this, totally Hamas' fault.

I believe I can explain this. First, the release is coming up. Obsidian is working with the major platforms in order to prepare and push the patch out for the game (Steam, GOG, etc.) Second, the reason for the odd-looking version number for the patch is due to a change in what is called "Semantic Versioning." I can provide you with two sources: the first is to the Semantic Versioning site that explains it a bit more in detail (https://semver.org/) ... and the second source is to the collection of patch notes for Pillars of Eternity (https://pillarsofeternity.fandom.com/wiki/Version). If I had to make a guess, I'd venture to say that the new PoE patch is so impactful that it would literally push the game far past v3.7 or v3.07 (either reference works; it only depends on if you personally follow the semantic versioning reasoning, etc. Its kind of like Fahrenheit vs. Celcius.)

Whoops, wrong thread.

Same here. I recognize a few, but they don't look interesting to me.

You right about Viconia, its a disgrace and unrealistic because of the way Drow age. She is too old for the time gap Im waiting for a mod to change that

I've not watched any of his movies, which is kind of impressive.

I will not post pictures, but the fan art for those characters suggests otherwise

No...and yes. He's one of the few auteurs to come out of the last decade that is getting actual budgets for his films. There aren't a ton of those around anymore, and most of the ones still working are ten, twenty years older. So I figure I have at least another decade, maybe two, to look forward of Dennis(sic) films, and it is a bit annoying that he's going to inevitably suck up a lot of the air in the room during that time. But like I said, I'm not going to continue to make the mistake by watching more of them, I don't really even want to talk or think about the guy anymore. Let Dennis and his films forever languish in the vast graveyards of my mind. James Cameron: At least he's only working on his cruddy video game movies these days (i.e. Avatar) - well, in between personally overseeing and approving of infamously terrible AI-upscaled re-releases of his previous films, that is. And actually, I'm okay with Terminator 1 and True Lies, which is at least something. I have to be honest, while I do really dislike James Cameron's work as a whole, I kind of forgot my actual least favorite director of all time, which is Darren Aronofsky: now there's a guy whose films have consistently and vehemently disgusted me so much that if I heard he was the victim of a grisly murder, genuinely my first thought would probably be "good!"...before I remember that, oh yeah, he just made awful movies, I don't really need to be a bloodthirsty lunatic because of it, .

The more I think about it, the more I come to the conclusion that there is nothing wrong with the game, setting etc. They just ****ed up the marketing.

Still here. Still waiting for PoE3. If it is not coming soon, we will have to make it ourselves.

Barrel Gate 3 does not have attractive characters, all things considered. Even the most popular "Shadowheart" is fugly. Icing on the cake is what those Belgians did to Viconia.

It shouldnt be a major hurdle, just include attractive women as Romance options and you will be ahead of Larian in the Romance competition Josephine from DA:I is a good example of this. We just asking for real inclusive Romance and not selective inclusivity and that means also catering for straight men

Go for the ass Boo, GO FOR THE ASS!!

That’s to much conservative option for the current year audience

Maybe it is 3.07-etc., perhaps it should be 3.0.7.etc. so 3.4 > 3.0.7. Weird numeration, indeed.

https://www.eisa.org/sa-2024-election-brief-one-of-deposits-and-signatures-what-unrepresented-political-parties-need-to-qualify-for-the-ballot/ Our national election is on Wednesday, we have over 100 political parties who are submitting candidates. Its a ridiculous number of political parties and its a waste of votes and political campaigning resources but we a new Democracy so most South Africans still need to understand that " less is better " when it comes to available political parties and voting choices. We should only have 5-7 political parties at the national level What is significant about this election is there is a very good chance the ANC will get less than 50% of the national vote, I predict they will get 40-45%, for the first time in the last 30 years So they will need a coalition party to govern the country and that is where it gets interesting, who will the ANC choose and what will they have to compromise on if anything at all? End of the day not much is going to change after this election because until we see a new political party running the country, like my party the DA, our main structural government problems, economic problems and lack of governance and accountability on the national level are going to continue But as I mentioned this election is still significant because the ANC will more than likely lose its majority for the first time in 30 years A bigger concern for me is the emergence and strength of radical left parties that espouse socialist nationalization policies like the EFF and the new MK party But Wednesday is going to be an exciting voting day around final outcomes

After activating the SPAC.R, it says I need to collect more milk molars but I have collected every milk molar I can and the ASL terminal is maxed out. I'm not sure if I need more but as of right now I have collected all of the ones that have loaded into my world
