  1. It was mostly funny because that was the solution in a dedicated meeting room with a 100k worth of teleconferencing equipment and 11 IT folks. Toilet paper tube would have been even better just for the sheer absurdity of having that just laying around in the room.
  2. There's an episode that always gets skipped
  3. Slacker backers will count towards dino goal but it isn't something I personally care about
  4. Currently in a meeting where we are using a cell phone in cup for a conference call.
  5. It beat D:OS2 too but not after adjusting for inflation
  6. My MiL really did it today. It's my wife's birthday and she called her fat and compared her unfavourably to the babysitter. On her birthday.
  7. Broke 2 million What's the difference between that and a ranger?
  8. Terrans unite! We must get this done. If we all pitch in 1 dollar then everyone in America can have a million dollars
  9. Well, Limbaugh and very, very low bar do go hand in hand
  10. It's just Limbaugh being Limbaugh
  11. Remember the Seattle company that upped their minimum pay to 70k? They're doing just fine Newer update
  12. No, think more like Age of wonders on the grander strategic scale rather than tactical.
  13. Hit that goal with 12 hours left Next up is magic on the crusade at 1.96m and then intelligent weapons at 2m
  14. Wouldn't be surprised if it's limited to outdoor areas
  15. In local politics it looks like Hickenlooper may not coast to being the Dem candidate for US Senate here after all. If you wonder why this matters at all is because it's very vulnerable seat that can probably be flipped. I'd personally rather vote for Romanoff but TBH I'm voting for anyone other than Gardner.
  16. If they ever fix GOG connect for Stellaris then I'll finally play that with the sound on
  17. I can't deny it, I'ma straight rider You don't wanna game with me
  18. I really gotta stop muting all my games as I have almost no clue what any of them sound like
  19. So that's what all the toilet paper is for
  20. I've been under the weather, as is my way every wintery season, and am currently making the same soup for the second time this month. Sopa de Fideo 1 bag 7 oz-ish fideo (the little thin short noodles) tomatoes or as I prefer to just buy a 14.5 oz can of stewed tomats, diced 1 bunch cilantro, chopped - just the leafy part small handful garlic, halved 1 onion, sliced chicken broth - however much makes a decent pot size oil, I prefer olive oil - enough to coat the pasta well salt, pepper, spices - I like to use Goya brand adobo with cumin, a dash of Lawry's, and crushed red pepper but you can taste it as you can and adjust to your liking Throw the broth, tomatoes, garlic into a pot and bring it to a light/medium light boil * Fry the noodles in a pan with the oil until they are nice and browned. More brown is preferable to less brown and some should be fairly dark. Toss the onion in the pan while it's still somewhat early in the browning process, they don't need to be fully cooked through but I like the texture of lightly frying them before putting them in the pot Dump that in the broth you have going, stir, and add cilantro Let that cook for a bit and then you're done *I like to punch it up a little bit and add a little extra chicken bullion (Better than Bullion is my go to here) and sliced fresh jalapeno Also made some shrimp recipe that I got from my mom, one of few dishes that she ever taught me to make. If you hate how my usual recipes are somewhat directionless then you're really in for a treat here. shkrimps, whatever you prefer but I go for the cooked, peeled, deveined, tail on but raw and all the same works great if you can find it kalamata olives chopped with some juice garlic crushed or chopped lemon juice parsley dried or fresh crushed red pepper an Italian spice blend white wine butter optional sun dried tomats finely chopped optional chunk of crusty bread Everything but the shrimp and parsley (and bread if you are using it) into the pot and bring to a light boil and reduce heat a little Taste the broth and adjust portions to your liking (sorry but this is how almost all recipes go back home) Once you have that then toss in the shrimp and sprinkle with parlsey and cover. This cooks quick so you probably want to constantly monitor it. I think this kind of thing is somewhat obvious but my wife is the queen of walking away from the stove for way too long. You'll want to give it at least one good stir but may need more depending on how much shrimp you tossed in there and the size of your pot Went the shrimp start curling up then take it off the heat and give it one last stir and toss more parsley on top give it a moment with the lid on and then serve.
  21. The next stretch goal is the prisoners of marzipan or something It's not the last one though as people are already guessing the stretch goal after that. I don't want to post what some think it is because I think it will do more harm than good here around Obisidian's lovable naysayers and ne'er-do-wells. Besides that I'm not even sure that we'll hit this goal
  22. 30, 30, 30, 8, hours to go I wanna be sedated Nothing to do, nowhere to go, oh I wanna be sedated 38 hours to go and we just passed $1,790,000
  23. Key's gone now but I may have a GOG key for Sunless Skies coming my way soon
