  1. This means I can actually play it... next September. After all the major bugs are patched. Then again PF:KM is still buggy, so maybe not.
  2. ^ If there really was a supernatural, that bible would have burst into flames. Quod erat demonstrandum.
  3. The problem is that people are taking Ivermectin formulated for livestock use. At least two hospitalized with potential ivermectin toxicity, the MSDH updates
  4. There you go trying to apply reason and logic again.
  5. All part of a Republican plan to de-worm their base. They must know something we don't.
  6. No the report did not set it to 'moderate confidence'. There were differing opinions, with one claiming 'moderate confidence' about the lab leak conjecture and the others being indeterminate.
  7. Possible, not probable. The actual odds will always be a matter of debate; ask a Republican and they'll say high because it suits the base to blame China. But they are probably heavily biased.
  8. The first taxpayer-supported public school in the US was established in 1639. It has been around for a while.
  9. Common pesticide may contribute to global obesity crisis
  10. Spending centuries learning that you can't fix stupid...
  11. Japan tests exploding rocket engine for the first time in space Bit of a misnomer there. They're talking about testing a pulse detonation engine.
  12. I could swear that they managed to make Khalid sound even more wimpy and whiny during the Prelude. Perhaps as an attempt at humor? They did include interactions and cut scenes with an NPC from BG2 pretty early on, so that is obviously an attempt to tie the two together.
  13. Says the guy who died slowly and painfully of a stone blockage in the urinary track and wished he did not.
  14. I recognize at least half of those names. What a remarkable group. Richard Feynman belongs in there, but of course he was only 9 at the time.
  15. That many people packed closely together are prime terrorist targets. We need remote scanning technology or something.
  16. I picked up Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear on sale, and I've played a character through Baldur's Gate so I can run him through SoD. I'm still early in the game but it's not bad thus far. Basically more of the same sort of thing, with a few twists here and there. The one issue I've had is that my original party is unavailable, so I've had to recruit several companions who join as first level characters. (Minsc and Dynaheir, for example, who I didn't recruit in the first game just for a change of pace.) The combat has been fairly challenging, and seems to be balanced for a full strength party at the PC's level. Fortunately there are ways to grind through the early battles using items acquired during the first game.
  17. Distrusting the government is not the same thing as being particularly susceptible to conspiracy theories.
  18. I think the Administration did plan for an eventual evacuation. Just not this one. You can tell by just how much they dawdled over extracting the Afghan interpreters. I didn't have an issue with the US decision to withdraw; some President was going to do it eventually. But this now looks like a bureaucratic failure at multiple levels. It may also mean we get stuck with that fool Trump for another term.
  19. This was called a mortsafe. It was designed to keep medical students from digging up corpses for anatomy training. Which... is kind of funny.
  20. Disagreeable people found to be more prone to conspiracy theories Well that's an interesting find. I'm not sure how it helps, but it's interesting.
