  1. A guy I know from work has been working on a game for almost 4 years now. The last year has been testing and polish. It's a side view shooter with a ballistic trajectory gimmick, you have to shoot where you think the other players are going to be. It has an inventory and items and skill progression and whatnot but otherwise a pretty simple premise. One guy with an hour to spare a day can't move mountains. But.. you can decide to be one of the guys who finish rather than the 90% who give up. All it takes is obstinacy. My hats off I hope he learned something, no I will not be buying it.
  2. Somehow I hadn't made the connection that the small towns were real places. Prim even looks like Prim. That's it, I'm off to find the brotherhood hideout.
  3. Are you absolutely sure you are not downplaying Nazism just a tiny bit with that comparison.
  4. Seize the means of production
  5. I mean, try to imagine him even more senile.
  6. nahh, they have definitely had enough.
  7. You should thank God you never had a president MacArthur though.
  8. Isn't the navy kinda underwhelming. I mean short of WW2 and the pacific it's a free ride. Not counting the marine corps.
  9. As Gfted1 said, shady dealings. That makes him 14 years old when the Vietnam war ends.
  10. Yes, let's all consider how the gender wage gap is a myth. Very droll, harrumph.
  11. You could just laugh at the dumb reviewer instead of making it about 'society' There is no outrage that Dunkirk doesn't have enough women and minorities, but you can still pretend and get clicks. This is Alt right bait tailored to generate a specific reaction. Are you claiming that the review I referred to doesn't exist? No, I'm saying he's trolling for clicks. People trolling for clicks don't believe in anything.

  13. And there's no Gary Oldman.
  14. There is a Bush-Reagan poster in the background, which would have made me the annoying little brother they were forced to drag everywhere.
  15. Also, Dragons Lair. wtf am I that old, was I them ?
  16. Originally they were going to go with an all new cast and concept for stranger things season 2, but they brought back the kids because of popular demand. Pretty cool. Westworld... eeeeeeehh.. I'm tired of long convoluted plots.
  17. The definition of Civil Asset Forfeiture from Wikipedia: Civil forfeiture in the United States, also called civil asset forfeiture or civil judicial forfeiture[1] or occasionally civil seizure, is a controversial legal process in which law enforcement officers take assets from persons suspected of involvement with crime or illegal activity without necessarily charging the owners with wrongdoing. While civil procedure, as opposed to criminal procedure, generally involves a dispute between two private citizens, civil forfeiture involves a dispute between law enforcement and property such as a pile of cash or a house or a boat, such that the thing is suspected of being involved in a crime. To get back the seized property, owners must prove it was not involved in criminal activity. ​​In all other aspects of our jurisprudence the citizen is innocent until proven guilty. Until it comes to that one thing the goddamned government loves above all other things: money. So they just made themselves this little exception to the 4th Amendment and told us to go f--k ourselves if we don't like it. Both the Democrats AND the Republicans love this. In fact only one political party in all the land of the free has fought against this legalized theft: http://www.lp.org An example. Driving down the road with 100.000 in cash, being stopped by the police who seize your money on suspicion that you acquired it illegally. You now have the burden of proof that you are not a drug dealer. How exactly would you do that. The truth might not be good enough.
  18. And he was kinda terrible at it. I mean, it can't really have passed everyone at the whitehouse by either.
  19. Are you not a moderator? You wanted to make a jab at me and you stepped into hornet nest, so run away and stop embarrassing yourself. If memory serves you got yourself there by saying that trans people were worse than serial killers. Now, that's something other than a simple disagreement, that's against the forum rules. Entirely your own mess.
  20. Me neither.
