Seems like a good move for everyone. If you like the Civ series and have wondered if there was a decent fantasy or sci-fi version, Endless Legend and Endless Space 1 or 2 have you covered, respectively.

Good catch. I was drunk when I wrote that comment on my phone. Either I misread the release date or I mistyped it.

Meh, the best way to play RDR was back in May ~~2014~~ 2010 on an Xbox 360.

Remake RDR1 in the sequel's engine you lazy bastards.

An improperly wall-mounted LCD isn't a huge falling threat unless there's a child or pet under it though.

I would expect most injuries from tube tvs would be muscle related from lifting them, with the occasional severe shock from those who were brave enough to open them up for repairs but not smart enough to discharge them properly.

You beat me to it, because I was looking for evidence to support the dick pics thing. I can't find any source I would be comfortable vouching for. Just a grain of salt there.

That pic was taken at the Dorton arena in Raleigh. I used to go there as a kid to watch minor league hockey games. Now it's used for livestock shows and the like.

Dunno about TN, but in NC, a Weapon of Mass Destruction is a legal term referring to anything designed to harm more than one person simultaneously.

This led, for example, to a local headline about a man holding up a bank with a WMD because he used a sawn-off shotgun.

I don't think he's complaining about movie trailers. He's talking about the Coca Cola and 12 year old M&Ms advertisements that run for 10 minutes BEFORE the theater plug and trailers start.

When I went to see Deadpool and Wolverine, I think the projector fucked up and we had to watch the ad loop twice. When the movie finally started 25 minutes late, people cheered just to see the Marvel logo

Dresden Codak? Jesus. That is a comic that I haven't thought about in so many years. Now I have to figure out where the hell I left off so I can catch up

For the Thumbs Ups! Think of how many other porters used and appreciated your highways!

Stein wasn't even the only third party candidate stealing votes. I voted for Gary Johnson with the Libertarian party as a "protest vote". Glancing at national results, he had almost three times as many votes as Stein did.

I was 100% the moron this meme is targeted towards. I voted for Harris yesterday.

hackers only need a simple $169 hacking tool called Flipper Zero, a Raspberry Pi, or a laptop to pull it off.

At that point, why mention the Flipper Zero or RPi? Just say it can be done without specialized hardware. I feel like they're trying to piggyback off of the buzz from the Flipper Zero being banned in Canada recently.

It’s time to talk about something Star Wars has been avoiding for some time: recasting its original trilogy characters. There have long been calls for the likes of Luke Skywalker to be portrayed by new actors (Sebastian Stan, anyone?) but it has, by and large, been something that the franchise hasn’t needed to properly confront – until now.

From Steam's self-published stats.

Baldur's Gate 3 could not be preloaded and weighed in at 125 gigabytes on disk, so when the game left Early Access at 11am US Eastern yesterday, Steam's bandwidth utilization shot up 8x over a span of 30 minutes. I know personally, I saw my download hit over 600 Mbps across a 1 Gbps fiber connection.

Kudos to the system engineers at Valve. It is mind-boggling that they have built infrastructure that robust.
