  2. That would be nice. Much more likely it will lead to the polar opposite. Those with radical views will use this to further erode our already dwindling freedoms, meanwhile the terrorists will continue to hate and kill us just the same.
  3. Like I said, ***holes will use this to further their agendas and line their pockets.
  4. Here we go again. Next step, overreactions, finger pointing, and backlash against innocent people (we're probably already there). Then the next step after that is ***holes using this tragedy to further their own agendas and line their pocketbooks.
  5. Right now the game includes California, Nevada, and Arizona. The plan is to eventually include all 48 states of the continental (or contiguous) US. If ETS2 is anything to go by, some of it will be free updates (like Arizona was) and some will be part of a larger paid expansion. Maybe they'll add some of Canada and Mexico as well eventually, that would be cool. Cali has some really lovely coastal roads, but some of them are also rather narrow and windy, leading me to question what bit of lapse in judgement possessed me to drive a big rig on them.
  6. Jed's Hard Root Beer. It's not bad. Not something I'd drink regularly, but I can see myself drinking it once in a while. I wish they'd gone a bit heavier on the birch and eased off on the vanilla a bit, but otherwise the balance is pretty good.
  7. I imagine you would have appreciated a heads up.
  8. Home from a hard, long week of work. We were short handed so everybody was pulling extra weight (well, almost everybody). That's over now (until Monday) and I put in lots of overtime for another fat paycheck. The downside to working lots of overtime is that it shoots me into a higher tax bracket so I actually take home only a little bit more for several hours more of work and Uncle Sam takes a bigger cut. The upside is a bigger return come February. This weekend is supposed to be a scorcher (we might hit 100 on Sunday, which is unusual for June) so most of my outdoor stuff is going to happen in the morning or evening/night. During the day I'll be enjoying the comforts of central air conditioning.
  9. Tacking Loose: Perfect Sounds like a yacht racing game. I'm more than a little interested in playing that.
  10. Disclaimer: Trailer footage does not represent the quality of the final product.
  11. I'm playing SteamWorld Heist. It's a pretty damn good side-scrolling turn-based tactics game.
  12. The term "BioWare-style RPG" doesn't exactly make me reach for my wallet.
  13. It looks like a N64 game except with higher res graphics, which is exactly what I want it to be, so cool.
  14. Dubstep - check Slow Mo - check Catch phrases - check Yup, that was a trailer.
  15. Twice baked potatoes, onions steamed in butter on the grill, and chips with fresh homemade guacamole.
  16. I stared Sword Coast Legends: Rage of Demons. I've only played about an hour so far and haven't had a single battle yet (which is fine by me). Right now I'm investigating some thefts and getting involved in a Drow assassination plot.
  17. For me the ideal temperature is 73F (about 23C). I'm very happy with anything between 60 - 80F (16C - 27C).
  18. I finished Magrunner. Decent puzzle game. I'd put it behind The Talos Principle and Portal Stories Mel and ahead of Attractio as far as Portal-alikes go. Fairly good looking game with... acceptable voice acting. The story was nothing to write home about, but I did appreciate the Lovecraftian theme. The puzzles were generally decent, though a little easy for my liking. Portal Stories Mel and especially The Talos Principle had more challenging puzzles, which is partly why I rate those games higher (The Talos Principle had some truly devious puzzles).
  19. I live in the south now, so heat is something I have to deal with. Luckily, central air conditioning is a wonderful thing.
  20. My Titan X after flashing the ROM for a decent overclock (1215, 1430 turbo, 7400 memory clocks) and more aggressive fan profile should easily take the Pepsi challenge with the GTX 1080. I don't intend to upgrade for at least 3 years anyway. I'll let 3D memory mature then think about doing an upgrade. With Vulkan, my ridiculously overpriced Maxwell card should be good to go at 1440p for the foreseeable future. Ideally, in 4 or 5 years I build a whole new machine with 4K in mind and turn my current rig into a server.
  21. Barbecue chicken, taters, and onions off the grill. The only chicken I had on hand was skinless, so I had to start it off on some foil. otherwise it would have gotten super dry. Making the best of a less than ideal situation, once I moved the chicken off the foil directly onto the grill to char the outside, I put the onions on the foil that had a pool of barbecue sauce and juices and folded it over to steam the onions with the collected goodness. The onions came out bursting with juices and flavor and I got just the right amount of crunch. Good times.
