This is bioware, you'll be a PG inquisitor. Now if you want to play as an Inquisitor Have you played that game, I saw it on GOG and it looks good?

So basically you are suggesting that a government should agree to any ideological separatist movement in its country and divide the country up? Do you realize what would be consequences to that if you look at the various political parties and organisations that exist in the world that disagree with the incumbent government? The Ukrainian crisis is about the interference of Russia and its objective to break Ukraine up to achieve there buffer zone from the Western and EU aligned countries. Of course you can't allow this. Crimea is gone but the Ukrainian government can't and won't allow eastern Ukraine to follow the same route. Also you are mocking the Ukraine government for setting ultimatums, would you prefer they just used loyalist troops and killed hundreds of fellow Ukrainians?

I wonder what type of internet connectivity exists on this planet? Would we still be able to check the Obsidian forums....that's an important consideration around any move to a new country or planet

This, I am also not religious but I use the time to see family and relax. Its basically a nice long weekend

I would suggest you don't waste your efforts trying so hard to get under my skin, but since that seems to be your sole reason for posting here, such advice is probably wasted. Bonus points for the "insecurities" remark, though that's pretty close to breaking character for you. You must be pretty butthurt that I (and others) unmasked you for the little cuddly, fluffy fascist troll you are to get so close to an actual direct personal attack. But please, try to take what I'm saying constructively. :) Sorry for the late response, I was away for Easter Friday. I should have left the insecurity part out of the post because that has undermined the message as now its seen as a personal attack which wasn't my intention. Anyway I have made my point, I am going to try very hard to only discuss the debate

That's a problem for me, we have this issue in South Africa and Africa in general where some NGO's get donations to uplift a particular country and the money is spent enriching a certain politician or person. This doesn't always happen but it occurs relatively frequently I believe if you accept money for a charity or cause you must also provide some kind of auditable trail where donors can see where the money is going. I assume you are suggesting this is what Anita is doing, do you have any links that I can read around this?

Its more complex than that, see the link to understand how Heartbleed functions http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/heartbleed-poses-risk-clients-and-internet-things

Now, I haven't seen the show - and from the sound of it I wouldn't want to do that to my poor braincells anyway - but that family, and especially the mother, seems entitled to me. A "stay-at-home" mother with four different children from four different men. Oh, I will admit motherhood is daunting job, but let's admit it: she doesn't look like she is a very active mother. Or a good one. I found this gem on wikipedia "June Shannon herself has been criticized for her daughter's diet, which includes "Go Go Juice", a mixture of Red Bull and Mountain Dew that contains as much caffeine as two cups of coffee. The drink is used to get her daughter ready for pageants. Shannon has responded to this criticism, saying. "There are far worse things...I could be giving her alcohol."" Oh, that's alright then! Mam, you could even give her alcohol if you wanted to! Sure! If anyone would complain, you could just say there are worse things you could give her... Like rat poison! I feel sorry for the kid. She might be spoiled in some things, but she's pretty much growing up to be her mother's little mini-me. And would you want to grow up like that? No I would not like to grow up like that, since you commented on the show I'll be brutally honest. Its a mockery of what a family should be and how families should behave But the scary thing is the show is relatively popular, so it begs the question why? And this for me is the saddest point. There would be several reasons why people enjoy watching it but there is no doubt that there are people who do think the family is on a winning ticket and aspire to like them. Despite the obvious dysfunctional nature of what makes the show popular

The Finnish people are in danger of not seeing Miley Cyrus and Justin Timberlake as well. Poor innocent bystanders are going to be the hardest hit by those tough sanctions on Russia. An aside: Is there a nation on earth where there aren't 'reality TV shows' and crap like 'blah blah has talent'? This cow diarrhea seems to be everywhere. I also don't understand the unhealthy fascination IMO around certain reality shows. Some are really interesting like the cooking reality shows, MasterChef and Iron Chef, and Survivor as they highlight the skills of people or how people interact in harsh environments but shows like "Here comes Honey Boo Boo " I just find obscene I watched 10 minutes of " Here comes Honey Boo Boo" and it made me nauseous, the fact that people are genuinely interested in the life of a spoilt and precocious 8 year old amazes me Our whole society seems to be build upon worshiping the entitled, so why should that amaze you? That's a good question, I suppose the best answer is I don't consider the family of Honey Boo Boo entitled I think the reason that reality shows have such an appeal is that people are disillusioned with the reality of there lives and get a vicarious sense of fulfilment of seeing other people who are perceived as successful. But I would argue if you are happy with the direction your life is taking most reality shows are less relevant

Are you talking about Anita Sarkeesian ? If so can you briefly explain what your objection is about her YouTube videos and her raising money, I am missing the point?

Huh? I don't know what you've been reading but definitely not these boards. Maybe try posting your butthurt on RT.ru for effect? DOES NOT COMPUTE I see no personal attack. What is relevance of saying " someone is butthurt" when you disagree with what they are saying? This is a personal attack, I can give other examples around other posts but its not necessary There's nothing necessarily personal about saying someone is 'butthurt'. Stop being butthurt because someone called someone you agree with all the time 'butthurt'. In case there's anything lost in translation: 'butthurt' is synonymous with 'whining'. While I'm sure there's some unusual situation where it might be considered a personal attack, the vast majority of the time when someone tells someone to 'stop whining', it's not a personal attack. I've been told to 'stop whining' a few times in my life and even been called 'butthurt' by some internetdweebs on forums elsewhere, I never considered it a personal attack. Here's an example of a personal attack: "Your momma is a @)#*$#@". (I don't mean your momma personally BruceVC ... this is just a generic example ). Or even worse: 'You're bossy!!' While Tagaziel seems to have been somewhat sarcastic in his remarks, he was indeed whining, albeit sarcastically (I think), to the 'butthurt' comment was apt. Okay that's your definition of what a personal attack is and I respect it though I don't agree. Remember I am not just talking about this one example. For the record I am also guilty of some personal attacks and particularly on this topic. For example when I called Sarex an extremist. But I apologized as I realised I was wrong. I guess what I am asking is for all us to try to take the emotion out of the discussion and attack the argument, not the person. The moment you make the debate personal you are less likely to have a constructive discussion

As I mentioned I really appreciate your feedback on this MMO. I am reading very good things about this game from a number of different sources. Are you in a guild?

I'm almost certain you should be fine. (edit): Decided to make sure: wiki said you should be good if you reloaded. Thanks! After reading the wiki, it occurred to me that I may actually have killed a guard in the prologue chapter, thus locking out the achievement, haha. But there is always the next playthrough ;D Interesting coincidence but I am also playing Deus Ex:HR at the moment. I started yesterday, I am not going to follow the pacifist route though, I am one of those uses the gun and bullets to make my point

Really Malc? So I make personal attacks against people but I do it obliquely? You seem to be confusing the fact that I vehemently disagree with people around a personal attack. They are not the same thing, oh and joking with someone also isn't a personal attack

I am interested why you feel the need for personal attacks against people who disagree with your point. I have raised this with you before around the unnecessary vitriolic nature of some of your comments. In all the time I have read comments from Tagaziel I don't think he has once made it personal. " Attack the argument, not the person" I know its partly a defensive mechanism and is caused by your own insecurities but you are a highly intelligent person and you don't need to debate on this devolved level. I would honestly think its below you. Anyway I do enjoy your posts and comments, even though I disagree with lots of what you say, so please try to take what I'm saying constructively

Gromnir we need to have laws and rules so we have order, without order we are no better than animals

North Dakota !!! What is out there, won't you be bored? Isn't that cowboy territory ? Petroleum-industry boom towns. ND is the fracking capitol of the world, and a whole lot of support infrastructure is being built to support that. (GD's background being in wireless communications, if I recall correctly.) Yes that is his background, good answer for a move to ND

Keyrock always try to see the glass as half full when you can't control a situation like miserable weather. So imagine you Larping in an environment similar to Skyrim which has got loads of snow. So you have the snow but you don't need to wear a costume...now doesn't that make you feel better

North Dakota !!! What is out there, won't you be bored? Isn't that cowboy territory ?

Nope you aren't strange, that just shows commitment for me

I have to say that the photos of these animals really grow on you with there cuteness factor, can you post some pictures of Cria's (the name given to baby Alpaca's..I had to look that one up )

If it ever comes to pass that the sacred poem to which both heaven and earth have set their hand, so as to have made me lean for many years, should overcome the cruelty that bars me from the fair sheepfold where I slept as a lamb, an enemy to the wolves that make war on it, with another voice now and other fleece, I shall return a herald of difficult truths. Sire, you who dub yourself TooLeetForYou, have a journey of self-examination before you. It is full of hardships, where your perceived comforts of bombastic digital self-assertion gives way to humility and the ever so menacing contingencies of life and death. Or more succinctly put: You have a real life out there, live it for quite a while, and come back when you have some wisdom and patina to show for yourself. *** No worries, mate. I'm trolling a bit, but there are grains of truth in it as well, and hopefully most of you guys recognize it for what it is. I thought what you said made perfect sense and wasn't a trolling attempt by any regards

The difference is that the Euromaidan was spontaneous, decentralized, and uncontrolled. It was an actual protest. If you compare footage from the Euromaidan with the footage from Eastern Ukraine, you'll notice distinct differences, like the fact that the instigators of the protests are armed with Russian military-grade weapons, gear, and don't hesitate to open fire. Euromaidan protesters were not armed with these. You know who was? The Russian special forces that invaded Crimea and seized it. It's precisely the same M.O. and likely the same units. Basically, trying to equate Euromaidan with separatist attempts instigated by Russian special forces is oby-level propagandism. Good response and relevant points, but I believe that the comment now will be " no the Euromaiden protests were planned and supported directly by the EU " Also the original protests were also about the removal or the objection to Yanukovych. They weren't about the breaking up of Ukraine to suit the geographical or political aspirations of a foreign power. The EU never wanted Ukraine to be annexed as part of it.
