Well, naturally the border people will deny it, while drop kicking te agent's ass to timbuktoo. Probably. I think that MiG is Afghan. Just a hunch. Look at the metal runway bits. Surely that's Bagram?

That is ****ing stupid. Get onto your local paper/radio station _immediately_. Tell them there's a rash of incidents, get them breathing down the coppers' necks. If I were you I'd choose radio because local papers will want a photo of you looking frowny beside your door. ~ I don't know what a gigglesquee is but it sounds revolting. ~ Up till four while friend having personal crisis. Cancelling morning meetings. Gale force winds wrecking my sodding roof.

You have to keep him. I mean he'll die soon anyway. He's a bard. At least keeping him will mean you don't violate the rulez.

Deskritus - noun - the accumulation of objects on a working desk which is mirrored in no other location on earth. Typically a range of foodstuffs, grease-stained stationery, and at least one object whose function the owner of the desk will be unable to explain.

Aware = check Of self = check I was taught a cognitive information processing model of human thought, so I don't go looking for mysteries that don't need to be there. We're self aware like a sea-slug is self aware. I have difficulty believing a sea slug is less aware than a supercomputer. Unless you're talking about philosophy. But to my mind that simply an abstraction of the primary sense data. And it's so wildly bonkers most of the time tht I don't regard that as particularly attractive.

I'm assuming you mean bullworker? They're actually pretty good. Had a great start to the day, was in bed when someone kicked my front door in, got up and ran to the lounge only to find the door open, wood and part of the door lock on the ground but no one there. Don't really understand the thought process. I presume you canvassed the neighbours? I'm not sure if it's appropriate, but in some places you can get better information by saying something along the lines of "This strange feller came into my house and left his watch. I don't feel right keeping it, can you remember seeing anyone around?" Because if you say it was a break in then peopple either clam up or get confused.

You are to me.

Sporrry Slowtrain. I don't buy your explanation. Obviously publishers feel they can deliver buggy games. However, with respect that's got the square root of **** all to do with how we on this forum should behave with regard to buggy games. Complex architectures have emergent properties. Simply making frowny faces won't solve that. Nor will refusing to buy buggy games, since as has already been observed that will just bankrupt publishers who release complex games. If you actually want to solve it, develop a methodology for predicting failures in complex architectures. Lot of money in that, as well.

I am still enjoying Skyrim like crazy.

I don't know what you said but it sounds dirty. A bulwarker is basically just a big spring in a piston arrangement. You push the two ends together. NOT with my genitals.

Damnit. I wanted to be a halfling mageslayer, specialising in warhammers. Spellslingers can't hop up and down nursing a sore foot and still cast magic. Note: there are no decent warhammers in Baldur's Gate. Give me short swords. Or a crossbow.

I know it's probably more complex than I'm allowing, but surely all you have to do to make a machine self aware is to tell it be aware of itself and provide the sensors.

Have managed to do something egregious to my biceps, using a bulwarker. Now I've got comedy shooting pains up both arms. I'm a crippled eedjit!

Easily as good as any film, I'm being blown away by the Black Mirror series (available on 4OD). I didn't have time to finish the first episode last night and I actually woke up early today just to complete it. Charlie Brooker is the writer and he's shot up in my estimation.

I think I've got bits of cigar stuck up my nose. Good new year though. Excessive whooping.

Is this an elaborate setup for "stepping out of the closet" with the new year? LOL

I'm not proud of it, you bastard.

Makes sense. Nice thinking.

I'm smithing the hell out of everything. Something satisfying about being kitted out entirely in your own gear.

I can't work out if my character is this aesome warrior or some kind of combat clown. I am sticking to two handed hammers, and I miss about one swipe in three. Lunged off a bridge when a fellah sidestepped. Died.

Chess with jelly babies.

Why are the prostitutes good aligned?
