The fact that they’re being found in inhabited space makes me wonder if they’re some kind of Thargoid beacon. Like, those are where they’ll drop out of witch-space when the invasion comes. People are currently fixated on the sounds they make, but they keep thinking they decode into a set of coordinates. What if they…

I love that your correction of adding a diaeresis to the i wasn’t the purpose of your post.

I’m shooting little green men all over Ms. Universe.

One of them, Octarine Core, is a nice little hat-tip to the recently deceased writer Terry Pratchett.

Well, one positive thing that may have come from all of this is that it brought the donation feature of Nexus further into the light. People clamored so much for a donation feature, hopefully they’ll actually go use the one that’s available to them.

Well, it does go with everything.

In that regard, I apologize. My response to things taking priority is only in regards to his corporate responsibilities, not his health. Obviously, his health should take priority, nobody is suggesting otherwise.

I totally agree. However, as an important CEO, certain things should take priority. This seems like one of those things.

Which is a cool way to run a company. I just meant that it’s difficult to type well thought out, convincing arguments on an iPad.

I followed the thread as it happened this weekend, and it seemed to me that the reason he was down voted so much is illustrated at the bottom of the second-to-last picture up there: the one about responding to irrelevant posts. If you try to read through that ridiculously lengthy thread and look for GabeNewellBellevue…

There’s actually historical precedent for this. Aleister Crowley’s cult believed in the power of menstrual blood, otherwise known as the “blood of the moon”. It was apparently one of their most powerful reagents.

Optimism is great. Sadly, we’re already seeing where this trend will lead us. It’s down the same dark, nasty road that In-App-Payments lead us in the mobile game market. It’s a road marked Greed. The creator of the Midas Magic mod (currently also the most expensive paid mod available) “updated” his free version of the…

I see where you’re coming from, but in the case of SkyUI, the creator has stated that the MCM portion will always be free and all updates compatible with v4.1 (the last free version). In addition, the last free version is open source, and people are already working on free forks of it. But, again, I understand and…

This debacle keeps spiraling further and further into madness. Chesko has essentially completely withdrawn from the modding community. He’s deleted his Reddit account and many others, he’s pulled all of his mods from both the Steam Workshop and Nexus, and he’s publicly stated that he’s leaving the community for the…

That is too bad. Alas.

Is that a serious question?

Well, that’s fun. Looks like it’s back to Nexus.

As someone who has alpha/beta tested several MMOs, I discover a lot of exploits that get reported. One of the few that come to mind was when the, now-defunct, Dawntide was in alpha testing. The CEO/lead developer loved to mess with us testers and spawned an “unkillable” giant off in the wilderness and told us to have…

I was going to say yes, but some research here tells me otherwise. Apparently, cards with the Ti extension aren't compatible with their non-Ti brethren because it's a different model of GPU.

For your PC Parts section, EVGA is currently doing a Spring Cleaning on their older GTX 600 series cards. It looks like the 650ti's are already gone, sadly, but the 660SC's are only $130. Sure, they're not GTX 900s, but that's a pretty good price point for a decent card. Replacing a failing pair of GTX 275s with one…
