  1. The great leader has a message for you http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-35239350
  2. I recall that scene from salvation i think it was called (robert deniro)where they heatedly debate whether jesus possessed a purse.
  3. The words are 'Jewish' and 'Judaism'. The former does not do not denote a race, unless you count people living in the same county. I.e. 'The English race' (bad example by the way) which is a bit archaic. You can't become black by marrying a black person, but you can become jewish by marrying a jewish person and converting. It's complicated and yet not at all.
  4. I had high hopes for the Homeworld reboot/remastering, unfortunately they didn't finish the multiplayer so it never had a chance to take off again. What was the name of that Homeworld inspired RTS from some of the old Relic crew. Ship.. something.
  5. I suppose this would be a good time to mention that we have to keep this within the context of a discussion about religion. Not about the various attributes of 'Jews'
  6. How can they 'corrupt the teachings' when they were there first. Doesn't seem possible. Have they been writing appendices to the Koran ?
  7. You can crank the FOV up to 90 in the ini file with minimal impact. I'm one of those people who feel seasick with a low FOV setting as well.
  8. So maybe another 9 months or so before we have a full lineup of propper desktop GPUs ?
  9. He's pretty safe I should think
  10. Ever heard of irony. She's got the rainbow flag in the other hand.
  11. Didn't make it through the tutorial. Too hard, luls. Not crazy about the pixel graphics style. I mean, I like pixel graphics but not when it seems like you are doing it because you don't know how to do anything else.
  12. 2009. Wow.
  13. The story is really terrible, but before you find out how terrible the game is you actually do get a lot of hours of fun just exploring. So I guess that's.... good ?
  14. NPCs sometimes walk back. You teleport. Hence it takes them a while to get there. There are also a lot of places for them to hide in sanctuary.
  15. Every gamer needs a macro programmable mouse. There are lots to chose from. As for dual function buttons, maybe, if you dig around in the ini files and get lucky. Backup first of course.
  16. I remember Doctor Strange. Surpisingly cool once you got into it and I was never much of a Marvel/superhero kinda comic fan. Occult detective was a recurring theme. He doesn't solve problems with fireballs, although he can do that too.
  17. VATs is boring. It's a concession to console peasants. Now that the shooting mechanics are tolerable I'd rather have it gone. Or maybe make it a one shot spectacular with a long cooldown.
  18. I hate losing my cool. I lost my cool today, won't bore you with the details but I gave a stranger the finger like an 8 year old. Now come the endless recriminations and cool comebacks that I could have used in a sudden flash of inspiration. Where were you when I needed you sudden flash.
  19. I loved the Xcom reboot but this just looks, i dunno, all over the place with no clear direction. I hope they ditch the strategy world map minigame. Could be good though, hard to tell.
  20. Humans are unique surely by being the first species with the potential to survive an extinction event.
  21. I don't think it's reasonable to equate academic achievement to intelligence either, considering how many are without those opportunities.
  22. Yeah those objections are valid. They have gotten better at making the tests though.
  23. So... the eugenics people were right all along. The world will be ruled by whoever starts gassing the stupid first. I bet you could raise the national IQ by quite a bit by making a cut off point in the scoring under which you would be made into lampshades.
  24. Certainly falls below Skyrim anyway. What\s that saying. You are only as good as your last release. The quest structure is generally pretty bad. Maybe a problem with their tools ?. They certianly had enough time to work on that. Tried playing again recently but I didn't finish this time either. Maybe it's the general mood. Can't figure out what it's supposed to be. It's neither funny or gloomy. The NPCs are pretty non engaging. They have a defining characteristic. I am a Ghoul, BOS knight, Girl with a scottish accent, whatever, and a few lines of back story that are given out painfully slowly if you meticulously suit your playstyle to do whatever gameplay action they like. They are a chore you feel like you have to go through to see if there is anything interesting on the other side. There isn't.
  25. You can't really equate one year of mild weather or this or that storm with global warming. I've never had much patience for people who didn't believe climate change was man made for no other reason than that it suited them to do so. It's just that it reminds me of a story about the recent climate talks where the reporter mentions that it is hot for this time of year. That's just irrelevant information. It's not a sample size that can be held up against data, it's just one tiny data point.
