Modern wars
I don't know, but it was pretty exciting to see a big amphibious assault ship sail into the harbor, today. It came all the way from the south-west horizon, past Point Loma, around North Island, passing by downtown toward Naval Base San Diego. I thought it was a full-on presidential-class carrier at first, but it appears to have been the USS America, LHA-6.

What you've been drinking lately.
All is not lost. But it is expensive. Locally enthusiastic brewer Ballast Point makes a scottish ale, but in 22oz bottles at cinco dollars a pop. For the main course of twelve I settled for Newcastle Brown Ale, but, I mean, it'll never wear a kilt properly. What is it about the malt that I love and why is it so rare.

Update 91: Closing in on March 26th!
I ... know, I took another look at the KS and couldn't find the love, just a little confusion and trepidation on my part.

Seven Dragon Saga by Tactical Simulations Interactive (TSI) KS
I just told the Update 91 thread I would back this game, but a second look at the Kickstarter page makes me think half-a-million dollars is beyond the stars.

Update 91: Closing in on March 26th!
I was on the fence about Seven Dragon Saga, but if Obsidian tells me to back it, I will back it hard. Thanks for updating. Can't wait to play solitaire with Pillars of Eternity playing cards while wearing an Obsidian t-shirt. I always knew I'd be cool someday.

about rolling stats (like the old IE games)
ManifestedISO replied to jones092201's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Hey, who are you calling a degenerate. It is painful and rewarding to roll a thousand times and finally get an 18(00). Such dedication, you don't even mind when the Girdle of Frost Giant Strength shows up.

USB Type-C
The author has an unruly drawer full of cables. My unruly drawer is an old box from a keyboard/mouse combo ... every cable from 1999 is probably in there. I heard a scuffle once, I think an IDE cable went fisticuffs with a FireWire. Type-C sounds cool, a little too close to Hep C, and I'll miss the sexy initials of HDMI, but, whatevs delivs the powah.

What are you playing now?
Not Project CARS, delayed a third time to May, thanks to me, putting my fingers to my temples and wishing, please, Slightly Mad Studios, delay your racing sim so I can play PoE the entire month of April. Really I don't mind.

What you've been drinking lately.
My dealer ran out The grocery store beer aisle doesn't stock scotch ale anymore. Seasonal, or something. Not a bad substitute, Blue Moon Mountain Abbey Ale, "select roasted malts, a hint of Belgian sugar, and a touch of wheat for a rich, caramel flavor and a wonderfully smooth toffee finish."

Does PoE overheat?
Sounds strange ... a 7970 struggling with Wasteland 2. My vanilla 2GB 7850 barely breaks a sweat. Even the archaic Llano quad-core doesn't complain.

were hawt and will have always been- Odd questions
Probably popped over to Monte's flat for tea and strumpets and scotch-soaked cigars. Say that three times fast. My odd question is, is it possible when someone thinks of someone, could it also make them think of them- What kind of Quest is that in Pax Video
