Enlist the "help" of the Masters
http://www.google.com/campaigns/gonegoogle/masters-demo/index.html My original post: In my limited hands-on time with this little gem, I only received aid from Poe and Nietzsche. Poe kept adding adjectives like "ivy-clad" to my less-descriptive sentences, and Nietzsche, rather cleverly, wo...

Linus is kind of a badass.

Do as they say and check out his response at around 49 minutes. Steve Jobs would throw famous tantrums, but generally in privacy. This guy could give a shit.

Now I miss my floppy drive.
When people started doing this, iconic nerd themes like the Imperial March and the Super Mario Bros theme were the breakout hits. Glad it came around to my neck of the woods.

This looks like one helluva project. Especially the water. I hate how most games make bodies of water by repeating a very obvious square pattern.
Re: Diablo 3
For the briefest moment, I thought I was the first person to think of crossing memes: Diablo-3-Error-37-MEME.jpg I was wrong. Then I thought I was the first person to think of crossing the memes as a meme itself. images.jpg Also wrong. But it was easier finding pictures than making them. So I'm happy.

Re: Diablo 3
Tuesday AM server outages? Sounds like Blizzard to me. That's just like WoW. I'll bet it will be every week, too. But... this is a (mostly) single-player game. In that it's not in an interactive world and that player match-ups are optional. They should take multi-player elements down and still allow...

Re: Diablo 3
I really don't like how the new prevailing trend in gaming is an intent focus on multiplayer experiences that cheapens the single player experience. Online requirements. Achievements. Leaderboards. What if I don't care? What if I just want to get absorbed by a narrative or lost in the ambiance a dev...

Re: Paco
That's the wonderful part of going to the liquor store. You can't lose.
Re: Paco
I can vouch for Festival Foods. It's the only place I've ever seen it in the wild other than Woodmans. Should be available at the one in Fondy. It's usually by the flavored vodkas and weird liquors like Hypnotiq. Be sure to test the base light before you grab a bottle. It's not a real bottle of Ty K...
Re: Diablo 3
Considering an active internet connection is required for this game to even run, why are they even bothering with retail boxes? Why not just digital downloads that magically work when their arbitrary countdown reaches zero?

Re: Can you hear me now?
It's more fun in execution than it is in retelling. But it kills calls instantly. People generally don't know how to react--it's like you've unplugged them from The Matrix.
Re: Paco
It is still kinda hard to find. According to their site, they serve it at Marsibilios in Mayville but the closest liquor store that sells it is in Beaver Dam, Chill Zone Liquor. I honestly wouldn't know what to do with it as a mixer. I just like holding the bottle until it goes empty and marveling a...

Can you hear me now?
http://www.cellphoneshop.net/blocker.html I have been having way too much fun with this. One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone shows up for an appointment and won't get off their phone. Won't even interrupt the conversation just to indulge me in the courtesy of their acknowledgement. I turne...

Re: In defense of Captain America
I could gush for paragraphs on just how solidly The Avengers delivered. Joss Wheadon is my wish-I-was-a-real-writer hero. To mesh a decent narrative into a movie that demanded that much face time for so many established characters is no small task. And he even got to do some fanservice of his own: t...

Re: Diablo 3
I have yet to play either of its predecessors. I fear it'll absorb me, much like its sister WoW once did.
