Similarly, for years now I've had the issue where if I accidentally press the xbox symbol on my 360 controller, it launches Big Picture for no gosh danged reason: I've never used big picture mode except by accident, and I've never paired a controller or anything like that. Please stop, Steam.

At least when Volourn posts, it's generally succinct and to the point...more or less. He also doesn't play the victim card whenever his nonsense is pointed out...instead, he just argues even harder with ever-increasing levels of hyperbole.

But it's much easier to judge now based on limited information and previous screw-ups by the NFL...

No, I believe that was Terminator (...suddenly, I can't help but think that the username isn't coincidence). Mr. Mage here is slightly more advanced than that.

Zeke has 3 days to appeal, and the general guideline is that a decision comes within 10 days. For an investigation that's lasted this bloody long, I doubt they'd take more than that. However, like Gromnir said, he might get it down to 4, maybe even 3.

Ezekiel Elliot announcement expected tomorrow. In other news, QUIT HURTING EACH OTHER IN THE PRESEASON YOU BOZOS

I would have liked to see more single-threaded performance benchmarks: there were only two. Of course 32 threads is likely to beat 20 threads in tasks that actually take advantage of a huge amount of threads...but the reality is that most things that aren't synthetic benchmarks aren't really equipped to handle even close to that many threads...

If you go to the steam community hub of a broken game, usually the top posts will have fixes for that sort of thing, assuming it's at least mildly popular. Unfortunately, people have to fix some of Steam's games since Valve really just doesn't give a crap about curating its games or making sure that they work.

already in one, and not sure that I could handle being in two, but maybe if other people were interested on a side-note, I think it's generally considered that nfl.com is the worst fantasy football site, while yahoo is, weirdly enough, the best, followed by espn

and the off-rail train disaster that is steam's storefront keeps rolling on

This is painfully accurate. Sometimes, I hate living in the Midwest. I always say I'm from California (which I am...kinda) if anybody asks to help explain my apparent unfriendliness.

Definitely on the short side, but uh...didn't it release for fairly cheap?

I think it smells gross, but I have a weak stomach...and nose.

yes, the ever lovely smell of fetid flesh, haha

Heh. While I would like for the Packers to not have to face him in...week 5, is it?...if there's no solid proof, it's probably unwarranted, same as Deflategate. Our God Emperor Goodell may feel differently about the matter, however...

Why didn't you just write out D.ick Tracy?

my cast is off my hand, but the bruising is so bad it might as well not be. although it hurts less without the cast because now at least nothing's touching it, so that's good. where's a cleric when you need one, sheesh

I'm sure the recent alleged DJ-beating incident didn't help his case any, although from the sounds of it, the DJ is refusing to press charges or even say that it was indeed EE (witnesses say it was him, though). Not sure if he'll get dinged for that, too. also, I'm not watching that trash show and recommend everyone to do the same,

The reduced practice time is also part of why offensive line play have steadily gotten worse since the CBA was signed...in addition to college coaches not giving a crap about their players' futures and failing to teach them NFL skills. I guess it's not really their problem, but it definitely has become a problem for NFL teams and players...

Not only that, but the one year that Cutler had him as his offensive coordinator was his best.

The Bills actually ran a bit of a sort of read option offense this past season, and consequently had the best run game in the NFL by a bit. Makes sense, given that their QB, Tyrod, is still developing(?) and has limitations he needs to work through. The fact that other teams don't run it very much anymore may also help explain why defenses had difficulty defending it. https://profootballfocus.com/news/pro-the-unstoppable-option-run-schemes-of-the-buffalo-bills

When the Seahawks were considering signing him, it was reported that he was "content with being a backup". Was he actually? Who knows: until you hear something directly from the the person in question, these random anonymous "sources" and speculation-disguised-as-reports don't mean a whole lot these days. Bleacher Report has a pretty bad reputation for doing the latter, too...

The Dolphins must figure they have a pretty good shot at and in the playoffs this year. Not totally sure that I agree (even knowing that they went to the playoffs last year), but if they win a game (or two!) against the Patriots as a result, they've done their job in the regular season at least.

Yeah, unlike the Diablo games, your character is just converted to non-hardcore. Takes away most of the fun...but so does insta-dying because of lag.
