Yay Portland. Yay.

Of course Battlefront is a money grab. Every video game that has ever been made by a AAA publisher is a money grab. Battlefront is not particularly original. In fact, it’s a pretty generic shooter with a Star Wars skin. But there are lots of games that are just as generic, if not more so. I haven’t played a COD in…

Wow. Take a minute. Breathe.

When I played it there was an ordinary deathclaw near the cave, but it randomly ran away as I got closer. Pretty lucky, but I suppose I had it coming. When I tried crossing the glowing sea for the first time I ran into two alpha deathclaws right next to each other. That was a pretty short fight.

I would guess it’s because he didn’t want to waste all the rad x, radaway, and stimpacks he unnecessarily used.

I recently did the “investigate the museum of witchcraft” quest. I was woefully unprepared. I think I was underleveled (not sure if the difficulty scales). If I’d known what was coming, I would have brought power armor and my big guns. As it was, I pretty much only had a couple of pistols. And lots of drugs. Let’s…

I love the Discover Weekly playlist. It’s helped me find lots of great music. That being said, I’d love if it were possible to remove songs I dislike from the playlist, so they don’t come up when I hit shuffle play. I’d also love to be able to tell Spotify “I hate this song. Never play it or any similar songs ever…

Huh. Most of the criticism I’ve heard is directed to software problems, which I’ve certainly experienced. Though, as I said, the software has gotten much better.

I’m not a Microsoft employee, nor have I ever been compensated by Microsoft in any way. I bought a Surface Book at full price from the local Microsoft store. I’ve had some software issues, which have gradually diminished over the last few weeks. The hardware is beautiful. That’s my honest opinion.

I’ve had mine for about a month and a half. I’ve noticed one or two scratches on the back, which I’m disappointed by, but they are only barely visible in certain light conditions. For the most part, they’re completely invisible. I’m pretty sure the Surface Book is made from the exact same Mg allow as the Surface Pro…

Nice, good luck!

Surface Book. It was expensive, and it’s still got a few software issues to iron out, but I love it more than I’ve ever loved any non-human thing.

Google’s cars have been pretty safe, so far. But what about other companies? What about some crazy new startup who wants to get a working product to market as fast as possible and beat Google to the punch? Will they be as concerned about safety? I’m rarely a fan of regulations, but I have enough frustrating problems…

I agree he probably didn’t know what the triad was, but this is hardly new for politicians. The first rule of media appearances is “don’t answer the question they asked, answer the question you wish they’d asked.” He wanted to complain about the Iraq invasion, and this gave him his opportunity.

I own Super Mario Maker. When you first start the game, most of the tools are locked. But after you spend about 5 min (I think) building a course, a notification pops up letting you know that more content will be unlocked the next day. Play again tomorrow, and the same thing happens. In the end it takes about a week…

I literally spend my life doing this.

The perfect city is Portland*. It’s big enough that there’s plenty of stuff to do, and yet the whole place feels more like a ludicrously oversized town than a real city.

There’s no reason to suspect that life on an alien planet will be anything even remotely resembling us. An alien life form is more likely to resemble moldy cheese than a vulcan from star trek. It could “perceive” the universe in a way we can’t even comprehend. There isn’t even a particularly good chance that alien…

The US started as a constitutional republic. We have only grown more democratic over the years. High school students learn this. Originally only wealthy, male landowners could vote, and even they didn’t directly elect senators.

I have a ps4 and a Wii U. Both are capable machines. I haven’t encountered anything close to the problems you have. Besides the initial setup (which, granted, is frustrating), I put a disc in the device and it plays. I think I was playing games within about 30min of unboxing both systems. Sounds like microsoft bs.
