@Misadventure http://www.stilesswitchbbq.com/ is the place. It was quite good. My favorite is another place, though.

I guess I'm old fashioned. I still AnimeBytes, the private tracker.

@Apu Know this feeling all too well. All the hugs and empathetic wincing.

Some people just suck. Some don't. I just wish the ones really good at just pretending they aren't heartless, selfish jackasses would stop existing entirely.

LU is some of the best entertainment wrestling easily available in the US.
I personally prefer RoH but that is mainly based o nthe quality of in ring action, production value and storyline-wise LU is superior, even if you are not a wrestling person the storylines are quite fun.

I will definitely play with you on that server. Or try to, depending on time zone issues! There are some servers that are more serious with rp, or they have more rules anyway, but I just find it light, chaotic fun.

Can I request lurker status..?

Finished Smarter Then You Think! I quite liked it, thank you for mentioning it. It put into words a lot of things I have thought about technology and communication.

I never used to read non-fiction before I started working in the library. Our website supports lists, and I am adding this to my Non-Boring Non-Fiction list. Gracias!

I'm only saying it's conceptual performance art. Appreciation is in the conceived concept by the artist. And for the artist and the art. I appreciate this as art.

If I'm looking for AI or machine driven with I'm more a fan of Roxy Paine's sculpture producing machines and works that take input from weather reports and the stock market to decide what to do next. Or Jean Tinguely and his self destructive machines.

Not Trying to lift the veil, just saying it's art. Great conceptual stuff, and kudos to the artist.

@Catsmeow

Of course I do. I mean:

See? (I have that username in a lot of other places too, where Meg was taken. because--.)

@Monogram said in Elite Dangerous:

Is Elite Dangerous the one that's taking forever to make with people putting down thousands for huge high spec ships or is that another game?

I can't really remember.

That's Star Citizen. Elite Dangerous has been out for a few years and is a complete game. Once you buy it, you're golden. The only money after is for cosmetics, like nameplates for your ship, colored weapon beams or engine trails, flight suits, etc.

@Derp Thanks I appreciate it

I have a fidget spinner in the shape of a batarang.

I am done for.

@Cheesegrater said in I Need Career Motivation:

If you like getting paid and don't like web development, Embedded systems are booming right now, what with every new product needing to be on the IoT or controllable via a smartphone app.

Welcome to my life! Though we've definitely gotten to work on some cool stuff.

@Thenomain Ah. Sorry. Not trying to be nit picky on the sissy, was more just conversing on how I liked that they were adapting beyond the whole: Genophage is killing us thing.

So, sharing this here... Gaming podcast my buddy runs. One of the things he posts is the (edited) audio from our (once-a-month) oWoD gaming sessions: https://criticalhints.wordpress.com/

Today's is the CG for our next (Vampire) game. Dunno if that's up anyone's alley (listening to a group of people play TT...). You can hear me be an ADD mess once a month, yay! >.>

I've seen comic book scripts by respected writers that go very deep into the mood and tone background of otherwise minor characters, for the artist's purposes when drawing the character.

Thanks for the heads up. Gave less than I want, more than I should, but I guess she and I will both be having more peanut butter than we'd like in the next month and that seems fair.

I often joke about how awesome it would be to be hit by lightning. You'd have an excuse--nay, a reason--for any bizarre shit you wanted to do. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" "I got hit by LIGHTNING!!!" There is no comeback. Which is appropriate, as there is usually no comeback from getting hit by lightning.

This is a terrible ramble. Help this kid out if you can.

The Force Unleashed has a mobile version that's pretty fun.. You move your finger around in different patters for different force powers.

Beyond that, if you can increase your mouse sensitivity, you could always go the way of Elder Scrolls. Keeping things squarely in the middle and navigating with the keyboard is easy enough, and it's a good time waster.

Prey, too. I've fallen in love with that game. It's hella fun.
