Another day of no one being around so progressing issues is a no-go. And not even anyone fun around to chat with online to pass the time, friends are all off having lives and doing fun stuff. Meh to New Year's.

I wonder if that 'search as you type' feature is toggle-able, caused it to seize up and die when searching a 1.2 gig log file Does look a lot more nifty than NP++

Mostly WoW still, friends and I going through old raid content we never got to play due to our guild being small and our raiding alliance well...being bad at raids

Wasted yesterday doing nothing, so just a lot of the usual chores and such this week. Kind of loathing the return to normal on Jan 2 or so.

Well, schemes that need an internet connection all the time to keep playing the game or just launch it is a bit too intrusive and rather flawed - one point of failure and that game you 'own' you can't even use. For Steam, I guess it's that concern as well, I think Steam had an outage on Christmas morning for a couple of hours as an example.

Wasted the most time with Borderlands 2, Civ 4, Diablo 3, Saints Row 3 and the Gabriel Knight series and the usual trolling myself with FIFA 12 and 13. Sleeping Dogs, Dishonored and XCOM were fun to go through as well.

Slight practical issues with that shirt

Well not driving a garbage truck around, but setting up a system is what's fun about some simulation games for me. Granted I'm terrible at it as my Caesar 4 cities will show you

Oh I'm sure they do - for trains specially. Not so sure at who would want a Garbage truck simulator, but maybe that one entails setting up and managing a sanitation system which could be fun. Just that it was a funny thing on Reddit and some other sites to get the game and laugh at it being non-gamey or something stupid like that.

Yeah a bit vauge, wonder at the 'Military characteristic' - I guess it being black or having rail mounts maybe ?

I guess people are into them for a joke more than anything.

Finished Caesar IV, barely. Kind of still want to play city building games so might go back to Caesar 3 or Pharaoh

Watched The Raid. Pretty violent - see a kid take a rifle round through the neck in the first 20 minutes, but is a nice action flick.

My google-fu is weak, been trying to track down numbers on that. Did find a list of active duty personnel by state, but that's just where they're stationed not necessarily where they are recruited from http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/2012/tables/12s0509.pdf

Why a problem if they 'look' like assault rifles ? I'd imagine they could do a lot with regulating the after-market parts like grips, sights, tac-lights, etc. Or just treating it like they do a car, need you to pass tests, get a licence and have that maintained periodically.

Don't forget the police. Well might be too late for that lot anyway.

Kiss of death for it.

Looking at the list of criteria I can certify that I'm a psychopath.

Ugh Rainbow Six Vegas, death of the series But yeah those are good shooter games, forget if you die or just are 'incapacitated'.

Allowing workers to commute so to speak was a great change in 4. Having nasty industries near the housing and the needed workers was annoying at times. Caesar 4 has a nice bug, where my city is too large and too many engineering posts resulting in the engineers doing nothing. So I have buildings collapsing all over the place while I redeploy stations.

Well is a bit early, but have a good Christmas and enjoy the time with family or friends or whatever it is you're doing.

Ghost Recon games are a steal at that price. Well the good ones

Probably making their rifle less effective overall by doing that.

Why not let your wife read that letter ? Does concern her after all. But yeah seems both sides here are pretty well dug in. Still let them send your kids presents though, involving them in the fight just leads to idiocy like in my extended family where problems sisters have gets passed on to their kids - so for example I wouldn't be upset if a chunk of my aunts or cousins died or got injured, etc.

Decent price for NS2.
