Here’s something I kinda need to know: What is the NAACP hiring policy? I mean, what Dolezal did is nothing short of fraud. And, if she’d said she was white, would she have been hired to the same position? Would she have been fired given the same performance (whether it was good or bad work, would her prospects have…

Funny thing about that: how would you classify both these people?

I hope to god that we get contact with the Capital Wasteland. They had such a tight, solid story path for Fallout 3 and BOS, that (barring the end decisions) means everything is set in stone. So, running into a Brotherhood of Steel themed “nation” in the midst of rebuilding DC and creating an agricultural economy with…

Funnily enough, the aging process used to give the wooden members of boats of that era their strength did a pretty good job in general. A wooden vessel of that size should have a fair amount of torsional rigidity, and when ships of that era grounded their selves, they tended not to break their backs. I imagine that…

Money say that, with how Dragon Ball Z Abridged utilized the moment over and over, and the fact there there is a general fondness in the fandom for DBZ abridged (It really shows off in quite a few places that the creators genuinely love, know, and understand the Dragon Ball universe, and It respects the work while…

I never realized that The Library was such a contentious level. I only ever hated how monotonous and repetitive the terrain was. There’s 5-6 places in that level, where careful jumping puts you up high out of reach of the Combat and Incubator forms, so you can let the infection forms crawl around to you, take them out…

The presence of “Paint it Black” makes me very happy.

you know, at this point, if they rebuilt the game, with new technology, from the ground up, like you might make a perfect replica of a destroyed church with concrete and steel, and then give it the same beautiful facade, if they did that, and released it for PC, and current gen machines, I might not pay 60 dollars for…

a cm is about .4 inches, which, seeing as that’s more than 120% of your estimate of “1/3” A foot is 12 inches, a yard is 3 feet, or 36 inches. A metre is about 39.4 inches, so, if you’re okay with being out by 1-2%, you can call a metre 39 inches, or 3.25 feet, or 1.1 yards.

Additionally, the SI nomenclature exists…

The one I heard is that decimation is reducing something in number, traditionally by 10%. But that the hard rule on it is that decimation should only be used to refer to sizable groups of things with discreet members, whose numbers are reduced by a significant portion. So, you can’t decimate an apple, because its a…

Heck, this gets used (all be it not super often) in the UK. So, my guess is that it predates the WWE popularization by a while. Wouldn’t be surprised to find it had a WWII military origin, what with the number of wise cracks that were made about senior Nazi genitalia during the war.

This! This is why the DCAU Batman is definitive for me. He was dark, brooding, vengeful, melancholy. But, he also had love, and humour, and pity in his soul. It’s why I love TDKR, because it shows how he lost thee things, becoming disenfranchised with the world, and how a brave girl started to heal that wound. It’s…

Am I the only person who sees the legal cluster waiting to happen here? What if a mod incorporates an asset from a developer? Has that asset been licensed? This seems like a bad idea, not least because of the fact that it doesn’t even take into account the kind of abuse that could be leveraged using things like EULAs…

There is no crime in the respect or the empathy for your enemy. The Kriegsmarine, and for that matter the AfrikaKorps, largely conducted their selves with honour, and dignity, punishing within their ranks those who disregarded the covenants of war. It wasn't until Allied actions, an attack on a U-Boat rendering aid,…

Jesus Christ. I have friends with kids who aren't that old yet.

I can totally appreciate Hang Em' High. That large open space lead to some really fun gun play, especially because the game I played on it had no sniper rifle or pistol, to mitigate the mid ground being a death zone. Battle Creek was super fun with shotguns and assault Rifles, because the small balanced space made…

I wonder at which point you get in deep enough that they figure they can let you in on the bullshit, because you're too broke and embarrassed to get out?

I always choose the Geth. They didn't start shit. Sorry Tali, but your people are tools.

Well.... I found hunting bounties is much more profitable. What kinda trade runs are you doing? Because It seems the long slog when a fully kitted out sidewinder can haul in 20,000 credit bounties from wanted vipers (a bit risque) and Cobras (A breeze as you can out maneuver them tight, and their boost usually isn't…

Nope. In game image I'm pretty sure.
