An addendum to this should be great names of game levels. My nomination is HL1's “Surface Tension”. Is that not just the perfect name?

Reinhardt is a st Bernard all the way.

If people want to run or watch Laguna Seca they should just get off their butt and go do it ASAP. That track is having some really rough times and who knows how long it’ll be around before it gets NIMBY’d out of existence. It may not be this year or next year, but I don’t give very high odds of it surviving another 5…

The counter to that is that other bar which has a very high likelyhood of snagging your foot on your flips and sending your head pivoting painfully to the ground. Good static stability, but terrible consequences should you screw it up.

48V is awesome when you’re looking to run less than 10kW. Just look at all the battery powered yard tools running on 48V packs. They’re probably pushing a few kW at best. Once you’re in the 10s of kW however you start to have bigger problems to worry about, like how you’re gonna push 500 or 1000 amps down your…

I think The Transporter was Statham at his most Statham-ist. Angry but poised British man who does bad things for good reasons (or for money).

You know what... a speedster Enzo isn’t necessarily a TERRIBLE idea... The exterior design is pretty good minus the exposed engine business. The interior though... That’s a terrible, useless, gaudy mess if there ever was one. Center mounted instruments don’t belong on a performance car.

The best feeling is hooking a Genji that just ulted. No slashy-slashy for you!

This article is missing one important detail about the creation of high end coilovers... The shock dyno. A good shock builder doesn’t just take a stack, build it, and ship it to the customer. They build it, dyno it, tweak it, and repeat until the shock force profile is what they or the customer wanted. I have huge…

I dunno... I searched “jet ski” in google and only one pornographic image came up. You know exactly which one I’m talking about :P

The original Deus Ex also had telepathic AI that would alert everyone around them to your exact position should you get spotted. It was hard both because of basic mechanics (limited healing, low health on highest difficulty, wonky weapons at low skill levels) and game design issues (the aforementioned AI, a taser that…

Now this the Lamborghini we all grew up loving. They finally reembraced the crazy (well, that started really with the quinto elemento), and I think it’s paid off.

Yup... the line between offensive humor and funny humor is often very thin and very blurry. I think the reason the D.VA meme is still funny is because gamers came up with it and embraced that self mockery.

That Genji nerf is... rough. I don’t play him much but think this may be a bit far. I understand the melee cancel, as now it’s currently possible to shuriken, melee, and dash all in pretty much one move, which is more than enough to kill anything not a tank. Since you got a kill your dash resets, letting to do it…

I swear another character says that line to Pharah...

I’ve heard really good things about the U2715H, and at the same time really bad things about the U2717, which should be its replacement but unfortunately suffers from really bad display lag. Just something to keep in mind. Also, from time to time you can get a really good deal on refurb or open box Dell monitors from…

As much I want to bash this as being another stupid Torch article... I can’t. My parents had two (TWO!) Camrys. Both were in more fender benders than I could count. One essentially paid for itself in how many times it got rear ended and repaired. The other was slightly more lucky, but its final rear ending made the…

If when the cleanup crew goes in and finds both a mound of garbage as well as a dumpster then we can finally retire all three phrases for good. What are dumpsters in Portuguese called anyway?

Your math leaves much to be desired. The EU2000i is rated for 1600W continuous. At that rating it uses its gallon of gas in 3.4 hours (both of those numbers are from the Honda website). Total energy output then is 5.4kWh, or ~20% of full charge (lots of approximation will be used here). Taking a 83 mile range at full…

Oh man... I just started reading the NMS threads. These people are nuts. The funniest ones though are the obvious trolls. Theres no threats there (amazing right?), just major trolling of the obviously unhinged fanbase. Also, it’s pretty funny how that GilChrist guy stops posting pretty immediately after he’s proven…
