This generation has pretty much guaranteed that I am going to be building an all AMD system. Prices, Intel's chipset/CPU fuckery, the mobo manufacturers having to rush boards to market because Intel jumped the gun on their own announcement, and Nvidia's problematic approach to Linux*.
*Which I am aware few people on this site give a shit about but since I use Linux for 90% of my usage, I do. |

| This is the same guy behind Zero Sum Games, who fucked over buyers of both Star Drive and Star Drive 2 by just randomly dropping support and not addressing bugs that had been open since release. Just FYI. |

| For me, GTAV was one of the most boring games I have ever played. All the characters were unlikable and I found the story boring as Hell. Not even the much vaunted torture scene moved my EQ needle at all. It does not matter to me how technically awesome something is if it is not engaging. |

I only realised it was Vir because of the stories section... maybe I am not old enough as I had never heard of Animal House.
You're not missing anything. It's one of those movies that you're told "YOU TOTALLY HAVE TO WATCH IT BECAUSE IT'S SOOO FUNNY" and then you watch it and realize the world, culture, and society have moved on since then and what you're watching is a bunch of people acting like assholes.
RIP Moon Faced Assassin of Joy. |

pfSense is starting to look better and better, hopefully it's backdoors are smaller. 
pfsense is a great router distro that can run on a bunch of devices. I have mine running on a dedicated fanless box with four NICs (WAN, VLAN1, VLAN2, and VLAN3). It gets updated quite frequently but if you want more eyes to detect any potential backdoors, take a look at OPNSense which is a fork of pfSense and is open source. |

I started about a year ago and there were quite a few tutorial missions telling you how to pilot, fight and trade and they added a team deathmatch mode that is good for practicing combat without losing your insurance/ship as well. The refitting system was the most obtuse for me and took a while to work out, but that seems to have gotten better as well.
Awesome! I'll have to redownload it and check it out then. Thank you! |

| ED is one of those games that should be right in my wheelhouse. Unfortunately, the lack of proper tutorials (the last time I played a year and a half ago) killed my interest. I don't count "Go watch four hours of YouTube videos" as a proper tutorial, either. I'm not looking for hand-holding through the game, but at least take the time to give a solid framework for how the game mechanics themselves work. |

90 WHOLE degrees? Might as well be living on the sun!
/Goes back outside where it's 92 degrees at 1018 with an expected heat index of over 100 by 2pm. |

Food drive is annoying as hell. At work, one guy had a black lab. If you mentioned the word "breakfast" she would drool like crazy. If anyone dropped anything on the floor, anywhere in her sight, she'd lunge for it like a maniac. Problem is, she was leashed to a desk, so if it was out of reach (and it always was) she'd nearly snap her neck.
That is 100% a failure of the owner and their lack of training the dog. My most recent dog was a rescue that was starved and abused. Like the dog in your anecdote, she would lunge after food and wolf down all her food in a bowl until she got sick. It took months but I was finally able to break her of the behavior by just simply refilling the bowl again and again. She finally understood she could eat at will. No more wolfing.
My partner had a black lab who had similar "wolf down everything" behavior. It took some doing as well to break her of that behavior. |

Another reason why cats suck and dogs rule. Dogs don't care if they have to climb down in to a 55 gallon barrel to get chow. If there's food there, they're going for it.
As for dog poop bags, we use the green biodegradable ones when we go camping. Less plastic in landfills and they break down quickly compared to regular bags. |
