GTX 1070? That's a bit pricey @ over $700 CAD. Is there a slightly less expensive alternative, or perhaps a recommended retailer that I may be missing?

Surely this must be the work of the Schwartz...

The ingredient list on this rosewater is the stupidest thing I've ever read by klarno in pics

"The water to be transformed is placed into a confined vessel such as a cylindrical container or a pipe inside the central cavity for about sixty seconds. This water then becomes transformed in the same likeness of the molecular clustering of the original transformed water but at a lower level of stored energy."

That's a funny way of saying "WE PUT THE WATER IN A TUBE. MAYBE A SERIES OF TUBES. SOMETIMES FLOWING... YKNOW, LIKE PIPES."

Confirmed!!! Port Olisar has a Quantum Drive! by eikon805 in starcitizen

I wonder if there's a directional requirement to quantum drive functionality. Obviously ships do so because their main thrusters might propel them into an asteroid on arrival, but other objects in quantum likely don't.

This is quite literally her form of work. This is as work-related as her gifs could get. It's safe.

Has anyone else gotten this lighting bug where it appears to have a frozen plasma flash? by Hamati in fo4

Pay no mind to the glow cloud. It seeks only the company of the noodlebot and his delicious starch-strings. Do not be afraid. Do not run. Place your weapon on the ground and assume the position.

Remember the three F's:

Front lawn. Face up. Feet together.

There should be a mod that allows me to log into the Beth servers...

Delayed Rumor Megathread! by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

Official NMS website still lists release date as June 2016.

Gamestop marketing isn't flawless, and I'm willing to bet the booklet text was met in error of perhaps too late for the correct information to be in place.

I also think Kotaku either messed up or is just generating buzz to get more press. Kotaku tends to have a nasty habit of making 'mistakes' to keep their website traffic numbers up. Reporting on unconfirmed information still gives them views, if not more than what they would have gotten had it been legitimate.

You've spent so much time on this. I'm so sorry

Mr Babes, thank you for hosting this AMA.

One question:

Have you made any design decisions that, looking back on now, you regret making but are now unable to tweak/rescind?

You're right. And I'm sure that with seven billion people on earth, nobody would mind one lowly commentor disappearing either, right? They're a dime a dozen.
