  1. Move bodies like in most Bethesda games. Hold interact and press again when ready to drop. Yeah but as he says its annoying to do so. Also I can't seem to get rid of skeletons in sanctuary. Can't pick them up wont even register as a "thing".
  2. Probably shouldn't have sprung for Fallout 4: USB Punching Glove Attachment Edition...
  3. Ignoring the "my taste is superior to all you plebes" subtext, while I'd like to see Fallout more exploited than it is in terms of game style and setting (I'd love for them to partner with a developer to do an isometric turn-based Fallout - maybe set it in Europe/Russia, China/Japan/Korea or Australia to keep it separate from the main series - heck I'd pledge to a kickstarter for that) I'm not sure how likely it'd be. Even if it was something on their radar (which I doubt), I'd imagine the Bethesda higher-ups figure Wasteland 2 fills that niche of TB post-nuclear apocalypse gameplay and there's no need to deal with it.
  4. Cool about power armour; sounds encouraging.
  5. Just another day at home, fighting for the mirror in the bathroom in the morning. Can't imagine what its going to be like when the potato gets older. Note to self, hubby's pompado' is more a pompadon't. Should gently suggest change. Chilling at home. Note to self, have talk with hubby about proper shirts over a t-shirt. He's acting like he's a method actor auditioning for West Side Story. Next he'll have a box of cigarettes rolled in his sleeve... Quickly! To the Vaults (aka could I have waited any closer to the last minute to talk to the Vault-Tech employee)! Note to self: high waisted pants may not have been the best end-of-world fashion statement to make. If only I'd know the apocalypse was happening today I'd have put more thought into my attire.
  6. I'm hoping the game isn't scaled to Power Armor; while in reals it would be the best option, I'm not a fan of being railroaded into a superior choice.
  7. Hahaha, yeah that "once removed" seems ominous. As I understand it the children of your cousins are "X cousin once removed" Grandchildren would be "X cousin twice removed" Great-grandchildren would be "X cousin three times removed" Where X stands for First, Second, Third Cousin. Its all a bit confusing.
  8. Second cousin once removed.
  9. Not done much in the game so far (spent far to much time trying to figure out face generation). PC is far more defined in game than any other Fallout, which feels odd. Guessing decision is tied to main quest story. Basic thoughts - combat so far feels like 3. Dialogue wheel suffers from same problem of most dialogue wheels which is not being 100% sure based on wheel text what your response will be. Seems weird to invest in starting pre-war, but allowing the player little ability to interact with it. Also forgot to get my screen caps.
  10. Sorry to have unintentionally derailed the thread with my personal dislike of the show. Removed posts. Please carry on.
  11. Well skimming, there were a large number of 0 to 3 score reviews that used "1997" in their opening paragraph.
  12. If you're talking about the user metacritic score, I think that's pretty normal.
  13. It does appear to be Andrey Shishkin, a modern Russian artist. Can't seem to find the title but here's one of the many places the image is linked and credited to Shishkin: http://alabaster1.tumblr.com/post/52322365447/andrey-shishkin
  14. I don't think that's what the Halloween request was about. Pretty sure they were saying to their student body "don't dress up in blackface or throw on a white bed sheet and go as a klan member or dress as a nazi or similar".
  15. For the ES and Fallouts, I've ended up with them on both, usually getting the PC one a little later to pick up mods and expansions.
  16. Hmmm, not many of those games are ones I had (or still have). Not that I have a ONE anyhow.
  17. He doesn't have to stand there and be yelled out, no. But he really doesn't have the recourse of yelling back (unless iron-clad tenure) without having it have some ramifications. Students and faculty are not held to the same standard.
  18. Hard to say. Mathematics is study of such topics as quantity (numbers), structure, space and change. Algorithms, as I already said in my previous post, means a set of rules for solving a problem in a finite number of steps. Because question which is older comes to how we define when one has come to exists from instinctual behavior of an organism. Most of the early known work in math was actually built within philosophical thought. Cosmologies trying to understand how the universe worked and why it worked that way could be considered a proto-algorithm as they try to solve the nature of reality with a series of finite logical statements (for example, Plato's Timaeus dialogue). I'm not sure why the age of either matters though, not being privy to original discussion. Seems a "which came first, the chicken or the egg" argument. If we define math as a study of topics (including quantities, structure, space and change) the objects being studied have to exist prior to the ability to study them. So if we argue that Liebniz and Newton "developed" Calculus in the 1600s, we're not actually arguing that the area under a curve or relations between rates of change didn't exist prior to it, but that they gave us abilities to express those concepts that already existed within a mathematical context. Within this, however, we can argue that caluclus is "younger" than, say Number Theory (c. 1800 BCE) based on known developments within those concepts/disciplines.
  19. Do we know its a bunch of "upper-class" kids? Yale (and Ivy League schools in general) don't have ridiculously high admissions requirements and presumably would have tuition assistance in addition to financial aid to pull in highly qualified but poorer students into their freshman population. Most faculty members (and particularly ones without iron clad tenure) aren't going to tell a student to **** off. Just not going to happen.
  20. Hahahah, they did read a book. It was Alan Moore's V for Vendetta. Or more likely, they saw the movie version. Either way the adoption of the Fawkes mask is totally related to that book and its film adaption and not, weirdly enough, the Gunpowder plot itself or Bonfire Night*. And probably goes a good way to explain why you get reference to it in August because someone was probably quoting the book/movie. *Well tangentially, masks of Fawkes used to be used on bonfire night, but the modern masks are based heavily on Lloyd's look of the V mask.
  21. Some refrigerators will have an on/off switch inside as part of what the owner has to do in the defrosting cycle. Or leaving the door open like Hurl said.
