Holy crap, a $75 arduino board just to know when the laundry is done?

Apparently Clay, Kentucky is the worst place to live, according to this map.

The Peach one was the most dramatic difference to me. No relief on the details on her dress, less detail around the stone on her chest, thicker fingers on the hand, joint at her waist seems much more apparent. Granted, some of this may be because of the lighting, but not all of it.

Please, please don't ride your bike barefoot. Seriously. Chances are nothing will happen, but if it does... You're going to need more than just a couple sponges to clean up the aftermath.

I got the full set, and I keep looking at them and man... they REALLY need a custom paint job. This is very cool!

Language has been around for thousands of years without any form of standardization other than what naturally occurs with human interaction. And the reality is that it can't be standardized very well beyond that except for in very formal situations, which is perfect. The standards keep the critical, technical, and…

I fear that the extent of the story-telling and puzzles that the game will have were all shown in that trailer. It's just a DW game with a heavy dash of Zelda thrown in. Admittedly, that is probably a really good thing, and will improve the gameplay and make things a bit more balanced and interesting, but still... If…

Yeah, and a problem with people being dicks. Bad contracts are bad and all, but I really take issue with people who take advantage of situations like this.

Yes, you can use multiple PSUs, but that's part of the problem. If you have multiple cards drawing high watts, that's going to cost quite a bit of money over time.

I'm really sick of the arguments that people are saying words wrong. With how many dialects of English exist in the United States alone, there simply is no exact right way to say anything. This is just one group trying to enforce a standard that, most of the time, isn't necessary. If we tried to correct every single…

But... but... I can't have the last thing made in the Star Wars movies be Episode III!!! I just can't!

Sure, they've recreated part of a town and mocked up some UIs, but this is far from what it seems to suggest. Combat is going to have to happen, inventory... I mean, at this point it doesn't really show any of the game systems fully functional other than base NPC interactions and moving around. And even those look…

Looks cool, but they need to fix up that camera. Not snappy enough!

I would play PC games in the living room all day long if I could just find a comfortable, no-compromise solution for mouse and keyboard placement.

Keep it. For sure. Look at what Quake did for shooters. They ended up with some awesome unintended mechanics like rocket/grenade jumping and bunny hopping, and that's what makes really good players fun to watch. Fighters (well, tons of other genres, too) had unintended mechanics with frame cancelling. Really, some of…

Now we're talkin!

Oh, hey Bobsplosion. I feel like you've been taking it easy lately. Or maybe I've been slacking. Good to see you again.

On my Cast Iron, I will use it, then when done scrub it out with JUST HOT WATER and a really good scrub brush. I then put it back over heat for a short period to dry it off and get the iron ready to "season", or coat it oil. I then put cooking on directly in the pan, just short of a teaspoon or so (just needs to be…

The specific evil magic, in this case, is commonly referred to as "necromancy".
