For me, steam is just stuck at 100% downloaded and is doing something and says downloading but not actually. And I think the progress bar is ever so slowly moving? Still, Cdiaz, the preminum fig digital download edition stuff should show as a separate DLC, right?

Same here Found that on my own actually, and that's where I grabbed the steam key for the download, but I thought the DLC that came with the digital backer preminum would show up as a separate DLC for steam from the pre-order stuff.

Steam is having issues as well with download.

I had the backer beta in, but just having it there didn't help, and now seeing if removing it helps since I hadn't updated the backer beta thing in a while, so, it might have something to do with it.

Having it on steam somehow would be good.

I got the digital preminum edition through backer and I don't see the DLC for the backer stuff. Might be related to the steam installation stalling.

Doing the quick uninstall seems to have unblocked whatever was wrong, it's progressing now, if slowly.

I preloaded and am having issues here too. Preordered as a backer. It's now stuck on downloading, doing... something, but not progressing. I tried uninstalling to make it back up and then clicked install, didn't seem to help.

Reagan might have been more of a figurehead in the later parts of his term when he may have been starting to show signs of Alzheimers. edit: Or maybe as GD says, it was just his management style. *shrug*

Well the NRA President does not actually DO anything. It's a figurehead position. The real power in the NRA is the CEO & Executive Vice President which is currently Wayne LaPierre. And has been for as long as I can remember. He's a political hack that loves stirring up trouble. Exactly what you DON'T want him to do. But his tactic has been to scare people into joining the NRA with the whole "they are coming to take your guns" thing. And I'm not saying he's wrong about that because that is the ultimate end the political left is striving for. But It's not how I'd handle the messaging if I was in charge. You don't wrestle with Again, that's the EXTREME left (which also tend to be the more vocal, as it is on the other side). Despite the fact that all of the evidence showing that a reduction in guns is the way to go, doing the whole 'feds smash into your house to sieze your guns' nightmare (if they're illegal, that's another matter entirely) that he pushes isn't going to happen. Voluntary buybacks and stuff (which is what Australia did I believe) are fine

Lol sharp_one. Personally, I don't care who becomes the NRA president, the NRA is gonna be the NRA (and not a member). Though it does seem like an odd choice and at least one other gun supporter I know on another forum did say "what were they smoking when they made that decision?".

Never said you were, it just seems like an ode to the military-industrial machine and the international arms industry which I'm not sure the NRA is actually in, or would want to be in.

Seems like an ode to the military-industrial machine rather than gun rights in general.

Not surprising that they are attempting to emulate Trump what with the 'drain the swamp' (where he's done completely the opposite) rhetoric and the whole outsider status thing. Course, like Obama was for the Democrats, trying to be Trump only works for Trump.

A New York City Republican isn't exactly what many Republicans would consider a Republican. New York City politics are a breed apart from most of the rest of the nation. Sorta like Chicago has it's own sort of brand of politics. Not sure what HoonDing is referring to exactly as far as Rudy Giuliani goes, since the whole thing with what he said on Fox news was coordinated with Trump, and then not even 24 hours later they are both backing off the stuff, go figure. Don't see how that suddenly makes him a Democrat, it looks like Trumpworld sheneinighans as usual to me.

@Mikey Dowling: Oh, the new kid is the reason for the delay? That's a totally okay reason to delay it for me.

It would have been nice if the guy was honest and up front about why he bolted instead of lying, would probably have gotten canned either way, or gotten scapegoated and then canned. He also reportedly kept the other responders from going in for some time, which I don't know was because protocol or what.

I wonder if there is a school mascot out there that is literally a gun, then you'd be arming the gun with a gun, heh.

It actually threads the needle twice, once between Mozambique and Madagascar where it's going to have to navigate around the Comoros and Mayotte: https://www.google.com/maps/@-14.1972136,44.247984,5.72z?hl=en and then between the tip of South America and the Antartica penninsula. It also hugs the Mozambique-South Africa coast really closely there.

You just undermined thousand of years of military training and preparation. Yes you can be prepared and sure of your responses in actual combat before your first battle. It has been done since first militia was formed.I agree the cop should not face a civil suit, he should be facing capital punishment for failing his duties. I'm talkng specifically about the civil suit, it's up to each service branch how they procecute deriliction of duty. I disagree to a large extent with your assertion that you can predict accurately how anybody will react when face with a firearm assault situation, also the guy was a cop, not military, I doubt if the police have as rigorous a training regimen as the army, but military personnel are not exempt either from the fight or flight response inherent to being faced with a life or death situation. I know of military personnel who have committed suicide because they shirked their duty and some who have committed suicide because they followed orders and ignored their gut reaction to intervne. Yes you can predict how a trained person will react and yes poluce force have extended training. He was no rookie also he had almost 10 years of sercice. Let's not pretend those basic facts you can google in 2.3 seconds are unknown to us. Well, for whatever reason, he did break. Maybe we should get his side of the whole thing? I'm not aware of that having been gotten.

The difference is that the police aren't a branch of the military service, so, dereliction of duty isn't going to involve getting the death penalty. Probably should also give the guy a chance to explain himself, as I haven't seen anything stating his reasoning for why he did what he did. Also, wasn't the guy months or a few years from retirement or something? Might be wrong.

'those he works for'? Are you insinuating that PM Netanyhu is part of some illuminati conspiracy? Anyways, turns out he was talking about... things we already knew, and it's no secret that he wants the Iran deal scrapped. He's trying to bet on Trump not knowing or figuring out that it's stuff we already knew. Piss poor survey questions leads to a misleading and piss poor headline... Angry vs. Pleased? I'd give the students behind this survey a F, and fire the professor if it was their idea. That said, no doubt someone's political views likely influence what they think of such things. However, 'Angry' vs 'Pleased', and Republican vs. Democrat in a phone survey is not going to yield a meaningful or accurate survey. 'The margin of sampling error for the complete set of weighted data is +/– 2.9 percentage points at the 95% confidence level.' - oh the hubristic bubble these twits live in.... Not sure what you're hitting them over as far as the margin of error goes, because that isn't a bad margin of error rate in and of the number itself.

I don't recall any sort of explict promise to never invade Cuba, don't know if one was ever made after the failed proxy invasion of the Bay of Pigs. Actually, maybe we did after the Cuban missile crisis. As for Canada, we certainly became good friends (along with the usual neigborly disputes) after the War of 1812 when both Britian and Canada (still a British colony at the time) gave us a smackdown. Probably a good thing that Britian was busy with Napoleon at the time or it would have been worse than a black eye and generally beaten up and told to behave.

A slow drawdown of forces from the DMZ area but staying in SK based on certain requirements being met and an equal and doubly verifiable drawdown by NK seems like a reasonable compromise to me. If anything, it'd help reduce tensions since you wouldn't have US troops right up against the border and is an incentive for NK to stick to the deal and have progress. That said, it could still go up in flames and the fact that the State Department isn't even at full strength isn't going to help things, and Trump for all his mercurialness, could screw up.
