Does anyone have a picture of him using a laptop in public? I'd like to troll twitter.

PERFECT! <nerd>

I guess you think having fewer players is a good idea? <I think you're right>

Actually, for that kind of game, yes. It's better for everyone.

I used to play Evony until I got noticed by all the big-wig players and started getting raided every 3 minutes, leaving me totally unable to accomplish anything. I also used AdBlock and never saw an Evony ad until after I quit. Now I know why I got such weird looks from people when I said I played Evony.

I play Guild Wars 2, and people routinely complain that microtransactions cost money.
-
So long as it is possible to get the things through in-game mechanisms as well (e.g., grinding) then microtransactions are at least potentially fair, even if not always so in practice. (Paying for cosmetic changes is also more acceptable.)
But complaining that they cost money? This isn't the Missing The Point Entirely Thread. [spoiler](If it was, guess who'd be the star?)[/spoiler]

Good idea, slight nsfw.

Money well spent!

Hey! I don't need to prove myself. I drew all kinds of complex vehicles and even made a RPG inside logo back when I was at high school. I could draw something magnificent for you guys, but that's a barrier to getting work done at work.

So, what is actually keeping you from drawing something magnificent for us?

Yeah, I figured that's what it would be. That site usescolor
with RGB components instead.I'm still not sure what you're drawing is supposed to be, if anything. It reminds me somewhat of the USS Enterprise*.

Go back up and look at DrJones' turtle video.

Aww, the user pulled the video.
No repro. I'm still able to enjoy those 15 seconds of fast-paced action.

The image in my previous post is now completely white though. Wtf?
Edit: a refresh solved it. Discourse!! shakes fist

My mistake--scrolled too far back, thought the wrong video was the one being mentioned.

Unsecured embassy wifi leads to Nork style Samizdat:
North Koreans who can get to these Korean language sites outside of North Korea can use “grabber” apps (many of them available free) to download all the content on a website. This can then be passed around via a USB memory stick.
-
Wait, there are computers in North Korea?
-
Of course. One of their dead leaders invented them.

Or you could just use this:

Yes, I actually have several of those. But sometimes people forget to refill, and then you're screwed.
-
I don't see how that conflicts with the knife, though amount of fill could cause things to be awkward. Why not use both (which is what I plan to do once the my knife arrives)?
-
You simply shouldn't need the special knife if the butter has been in the butter bell for long enough to soften. It probably won't work very well at that point anyways.

OK, fair point.

I love being a bachelor. I can just take a bite straight off the stick of butter, then take a bite of bread, and it'll all work itself out inside my mouth.
okay I've never actually done this...yet

That sounds like you'd get improper mixing or the wrong proportions or something.

Not to mention the risk of cross contamination between the butter and bread. There's nothing worse that crumbs in the butter.

You figure it out after a while.

You figure it out after a while.
That's assuming you even care about proportions.
I had some ice cream and a jar of hot fudge topping, the kind you heat up in the microwave. I really had to fight the urge to leave the ice cream alone and eat the fudge by itself.

If that's the case, you've figured it out instantly.
