Wrath of Dagon

You can get a USB cord extender, don't know if that'll work, but it worked with my Xbox 360 controller. Bungie just made Destiny for both consoles, so I'm not sure what their relationship is with Microsoft anymore. Speaking of Destiny, just reached level 8 and having a blast exploring the moon. I tried one PvP match and was terrible, but thankfully there is plenty of PvE content to keep me happy. Bungie doesn't make Halo anymore, it's now made by an internal Microsoft studio, the price Bungie had to pay for their freedom.

Do you think the majority of people in Texas would vote for independence if there was a referendum? Not really, all the Democrats would be against, so that's 40% already. And most of the rest probably have too much of an emotional attachment to the US. 20% quoted before sounds about right, though I've never heard of a poll. As far as immigration, the previous waves of immigrants had to work. Now all they have to do is get on welfare. The main damage is political though.

It would benefit the UK to be rid of that leftist appendage. Also statistically it's been shown that smaller countries tend to do better. Obama said that it's up to the people of Scotland to decide if they should be independent. So I thought that implied it's up to the people of Texas to decide whether they should be independent, but I see that UK did agree to the referendum.

The entire Imperial City is a KOTOR retread plus filler, also JE only has two hubs, so I don't see how it's better. Unless you prefer action combat, then may be.

All is relative Volo.

It's a good game, but I wonder if you'll notice a drop off in quality after a certain point.

I still remember when Bio forums was a quiet, friendly place, kind of like Obsidian forums.

Yes, what could go wrong with an out of control, lawless government? Well, let's look at a country slightly ahead of us on the curve: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11059138/Rotherham-In-the-face-of-such-evil-who-is-the-racist-now.html That's a terrible story, but you understand that we can point to terrible situations like that in both the US and the UK throughout history, right? Sex trafficking has existed for centuries, cults, serial killers, etc. We had slavery, we had segregation, we've had lynch mobs and riots. But we also have modern statistics that show crime falling, we have better technology and responses to bad situations, and we have a society which is much more open and tolerant. So you've got a long way to go if you want to make the end is nigh argument, because our history ain't all that peachy and we are still chuggin' along. You seem to miss one crucial point. The government and the police knew about it and did nothing! Also our own government (unintentionally but in a similar illegal way) enables human trafficking by maintaining open borders.

That was an insane article. I'm not even sure it can be called an article. Time to restart the tone it down campaign. If you're going to make that claim, at least you should give some examples. I've never seen such lawlessness in the US before. So yes, almost any change would be for the better.

The left's war on the rule of law :http://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2014/08/25/untitled-n1882001

After Medieval they made the battles very fast and arcady and I never really liked them anymore. I did play through the first Rome campaign though, it was OK but I wouldn't spend time on it again.

Got nostalgic and re-installed the original Medieval: Total War. I tried to find a high res mod for it, but there doesn't seem to be one. However, I did find a fix which lets you select all the original resolutions under Win 7: http://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local_links.php?catid=168 It's the first download, you just unzip it into the install directory. At the highest res the sprites actually look quite nice, even when zoomed in, much better than I remember playing years ago.

I dropped $12 on a Kindle collection of short stories by William De La Mare, after all my efforts to find "Out of the Deep" for free proved fruitless. Stupid Mickey Mouse copyright!

People rioting in Ferguson, one of the top reasons they give is that there are no jobs available.

Well, Middle East is pretty much all homosexual, criminality or not. Which is also an argument against people being born homosexual, that and Ancient Greece. And no, any one thing doesn't affect stable families, it's a combination of many things, it's the culture in general. Not so long ago when sodomy was illegal, families were also more stable. It's not that one caused the other, it's that the culture was completely different, and caused both. Nah, I don't see any kind of a serious secessionist movement, even in Texas, I guess we've become sheep. May be if they try to take away our guns.

So people are rioting saying they can't find jobs, yet we need to let in more illegals to take those jobs?

Your freedom ends the instant it intrudes on someone else. Killing & stealing affect other people. Consenting adults marrying whoever they want does not. c'mon, you know better than that! as far as drug use I would not go so far as to legalize all drugs because with some there ARE significant public safety concerns. But is a gay couple moves in next door and you don't like them being there... move. You are free to move, to ignore them etc. No one is forcing you to like anything. If I'm in the majority, I should be able to have the society I want, not one where anything goes. Everything someone does affects the society in some way, people are social animals and no one is an island. For example, if you don't have stable families, you don't have a stable society either. People used to understand that, but now we're tending towards absolutism. Like I said, Republican party is already dead, now they're driving away their base. I see major political realignment coming, but for the foreseeable future I guess we're stuck with one party Democrat rule.

What about not stealing and not killing? Those are moral choices too. You might say certain behaviors don't affect others, so are OK. But what if I want to live in a society where people aren't all drug users and don't engage in deviant behavior? Do you understand that society affects everyone who lives in it, one way or another?

Walls don't mean you can't have a partnership. Good fences make good neighbors. I suspect the reason you think we have some kind of severe labor shortage is you haven't had to look for a private sector job.

It's been that way ever since US was founded, yet worked just fine. Laws express peoples moral believes, without moral believes you can't have a functional society. Just having a law on what relationships are recognized as marriage doesn't make the government bigger somehow.

Half of Republicans are what's called "religious right". The Republican party can't survive without them anyway, so becoming more socially liberal is a dead end. Sure, lots of people say they'd like to see Republicans more socially liberal, but in the end they'll just vote for Democrats anyway, because it's the party of free goodies, and we all feel entitled.

Also, if we secure the border, the legal and illegal immigrants doing those jobs aren't just going to suddenly evaporate. In any case, laws must be enforced. Ignoring them only leads to crime and anarchy. You can not have a democratic society without rule of law. How much legal immigration we need is a legitimate subject of debate. IMO 20 million over 10 years is a very reasonable limit that Jeff Sessions has proposed.

Your articles are just someone's opinion that happens to correspond to your own. We have plenty of unemployed people who could use those jobs. To say illegal immigration doesn't cost us anything is ridiculous, 20 years ago Harry Reid ranted that 25% of births in California public hospitals was to illegals. Who's paying for those births? Every child of illegals born in the US is an immediate US citizens, eligible for all welfare benefits. All they have to do is have half a dozen kids, then live high off the hog on the US taxpayer. And what's the rate now, 50%? 80%? California has 4 times as many poor as any other state, where do you think those poor are coming from? Education is free for them, medical services are free, often housing is. Who's paying for all that? Just to deal with the current immigration crisis, Obama asked for 4 billion dollars just as a supplement, just for a short time, that's more than the entire 2000 mile fence, assuming 2 million dollars per mile. Do you know that the government actually gives tax id numbers to illegals, theoretically so they could pay taxes (lol), but they actually use them to fraudulently obtain billions of dollars from the government by filing fake tax returns. Not to mention all the other crimes they're committing, all the social problems they create. Just a few days ago here an apparent illegal killed a family of four in a car accident trying to escape the police. Normally a society tries to eradicate poverty, we're intentionally importing it. As far as overstaying visas, I already said they have to start tracking the visas, go find the people doing it and revoke their visas forever. Edit: Also, if really need those jobs filled, what's all the legal immigration for anyway? Or is it just that we need to somehow exploit people by paying below minimum wage, or our economy will shut down?
