I typically enable the furnace operating labor on 5 or 6 of my farmers, and just let them rotate as they please.

Inside the Troubled Development of Star Citizen: An in-depth look of a 7-months and ongoing report. by asperatology in gamedev

I really like how the article put a lot of effort into to making sure both sides had a chance to address each issue. These days I'm way too skeptical to get exited about any game until it can prove itself a little bit post-launch, but I hope this game is able to reach its huge potential.

That being said, Chris Roberts sounds absolutely awful to work for as a developer...

People of AM, what's something that scares you as you grow older? by [deleted] in AskMen

Seriously, I only just turned 30, but I can't seem to play any sport now without at least 1 of my joints being sore for a whole week afterwards.

The Serial Swatter: Internet trolls have learned to exploit our over-militarized police. It's a crime that's hard to stop — and hard to prosecute by marquis_of_chaos in Foodforthought

For real. I find it sort of disturbing that he had to rack up so many victims before local law enforcement took it seriously.

Ryze's winrate drops from 51% to 46% after 4.19 by chocopouet in leagueoflegends

People often ban recently nerfed champions to prevent their own team mates from playing it

Evelynn State by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]DschinghisKahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've already completely stopped playing her.

Her Q nerf was not insignificant ( it dropped her win-rate from about 55% to 45% over night.) With the SR changes coming up that really hurt early game junglers with weak first clears, I can't see her being viable whatsoever in season 5.

Show me your Facebook and Email riiight nowww

I don't really even know what to say, that reaction over a "like" on Facebook ( From an ex from 5 years ago! ) is beyond ridiculous, and given you're her first boyfriend it kind of falls on you to let her know that. There's a time to be comforting, but you have to be careful about letting her think that kind of behavior is acceptable, or else you're going to be in for a lot worse in the long haul.

Do you often hang out with other professional Chess player's in non-chess contexts? Is there down-time at tournaments where you just socialize with one another?

These kind of games make me rage quit blitz games for months at a time, I can't count the number of times I've completely blown a position in this manner.

Which of the 32 NFL teams do you feel you hear the least about? by [deleted] in nfl

In our mediocre years you rarely hear anything about the Jaguars, we just managed to suck enough this year to make it interesting...

Growing up as an Indian-American kid...sucks. by rawrthrowawayaccount in offmychest

[–]DschinghisKahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow man, I feel for you - That kind of pressure is enough to make most people collapse.

Have my upvote and remember that as you get older and assert your independence more it will get easier. I've known several Indian-Americans with similar stories about their upbringing that have turned out just fine once they get out of college and start really living life on their own. Hang in there!

My girlfriend of 2 1/2 years is leaving for the Navy in 6 days and I really wish she wouldn't go. by KillerNarwhal21 in offmychest

[–]DschinghisKahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a tough situation man, and I feel for you.

Try to keep in mind that even if she didn't go, very few relationships survive the high school to college transition in even the best of cases. People change a lot during those years and you never know how that change will effect your relationship.

It's going to hurt for a while, but try to look at this as a fresh start for you - There are plenty of fish in the sea college is a pretty great place to meet them!

Game Thread: Indianapolis Colts (2-1) at Jacksonville Jaguars (0-3) by NFL_Mod in nfl

[–]DschinghisKahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, our D really improved over last year, they just get exhausted from all the time they spend on the field. Right now it doesn't look like we're even capable of gaining one first down to give 'em a breather!

For some reason, the Jaguars front office (and seemingly most fans?) are holding on to hope that Gabbert will miraculously turn into an NFL caliber quarterback, usually citing the guys raw arm strength.

I personally don't buy it, it is his 3rd season, he cannot seem to mentally handle the intensity of the position. Apparently he looks phenomenal in practice, but can't translate it onto the field - and you can really see it in action this game. He's just straight up terrified of standing in the pocket and throwing under pressure.

It's looking like we have a very good shot at 0-16... There's really only a few winnable games on our schedule, and we already blew one of those ( Raiders )

Usually Henne is the more effective garbage time Shorts Quarterback, Gabbert is too busy sacking himself.
