If they are only profiting to the tune of 11 million a year, the Koch Brothers have bigger problems. I assume that's supposed to be Billion?

Nope, never played it. So how is it used in-game? Lets say I find a moldy tome deep in some forgotten dungeon and I open it to find....that language above. Do you guys really sit there and translate word for word what the language is saying? I cant see myself ever doing that, but I don't get as "immersed" as a lot of others.

The US income tax is already set up on a sliding scale where the poorest pay the least. But I do agree that a lot of loopholes and exemptions should be closed. US tax brackets.

“I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.” ― Winston S. Churchill Property is super expensive in CA. Even combined with his wifes presumed 6-figure income, it could be tough.

Youre next, Canada.

Yes BVC, that term is considered disparaging to Austrailian Aboriginie. Please refrain. What is even going on with the rest of this weird non-conversation? Out with it already! Is Sweden on fire or something?

I prefer direct sunlight and a cloudless blue sky in the mid to lower 80's. Meanwhile I live in IL. I dont mind the cold so much but snow can go straight to hell. I took my car in for emissions testing and got my plate stiker renewed. Then took my daughter to see Civil War in 3D and it was pretty entertaining. I wasnt even aggravated by the 2h 26m runtime so it did something right.

Hey, if you can pull it off... Me? Im too old to be running after 20-somethings.

Interesting. What is to be gained by creating a fictional language for PoE?

The length of the game doesn't bother me. Its more a case of every time I think about playing one of them I feel like I'm going to get buried under an avalanche of choices and learning curves. Then I go fire up D3 or Grim Dawn and giggle as I splode mooks. Having never played a single Paradox title, and seeing you guys talk about their other titles, also discourages me a bit.

Im really tempted to buy Stellaris but I know deep down inside it will join Endless Space, Galactic Civ I & II, Homeworld Remastered and Sins of a Solar Empire in my Steam libray of unplayed games.

US missile defense site opens in Romania; Russia cries foul.

The Stellaris nova edition states: So is that just like it says on the tin, only cosmetic? Meaning this race doesn't offer any species advantages/disadvantages like I assume the other base in-game species do?

1,284 new planets: Kepler mission announces largest collection ever discovered.

I cant even run and dribble at the same time. I guess thats how I earned the nickname "that dude is travelling like a mo-fo".

Im not sure where the end of the story is with Grim Dawn. I killed Loghorrean but there doesnt seem to be any more map to explore. Ive also only purged 25 shrines and I know there is at least 3 more out there. Am I missing something?

Crept out at 0 dark 30 to go pick up a card and flowers for my wife. There were already ~6 other dudes in the flower/card isle doing the same thing.

Yeah, I have the last 8 LoT's on my DVR I keep trying to talk myself into watching.

That stinks, sorry to hear that TN. Best wishes for your neice!

How do various damage modifiers work in Grim Dawn? For example, I was playing around with adding mats/enchants to my weapon and I notice a particular material offers lets say +18% Poison damage. Does that mean it will add an additional 18% worth of poison damage to to my damage total or that it will buff poison damage by 18%? Meaning, if my rifle isnt doing any poison damage on its own, is this buff wasted?

Not being able to drop a portal in there really cramps my style. And at my level those keys are sorta expensive, mats wise. Maybe Ill level up a bit more and try again later. Thanks for the tips!
