    Star Citizen: Chris Robert`s new space sim (the Wing Commander guy)

    For those who pick up a bundle right now, can you land and walk around planets like in some of the youtube 2.6 vids?

    Star Citizen Development Discussion (Is Derek Smart Right?)

    Meh. I've followed SC since way back, looking at videos every few months. If you do that, instead of trying to look up daily updates, you'll see quite a lot has been done so far and it looks great.

    Used surface pro or galaxy note tablet for artist?

    I LOVE my Note Pro 12 (and use it for my degree - the only way to keep all my writings where I can find them. Lecturenotes is incredible for this) but at this point of time it is hard to recommend. As Zaap said Samsung just abandoned the line more or less...you also have the Huawei MateBook to...

    Empyrion - Galactic Survival Alpha 8.1 - June 21

    Wow, I don't know how I missed this. It's as close to my idea of sci-fi exploration as it gets. With the discount it costs very little (especially compared to No Man's Sky at 6 times the cost...). Bought it, hope I'll enjoy it :)

    Why I think World of Warcraft Legion will probably end up failing.

    I'm of the same opinion as Jeff. But...I won't have time to actually play this one, of the next 3 xpacs. If WoW is still alive after I finish my degree I'll give it a shot.

    Brazil Olympics 2016

    I'll be watching this just to see how many swimmers go back half-dead, how many others are either robbed, beaten, kidnapped or killed and how the world just marches on with the games because money and corruption.

    European judges rule prosecutors violated the human rights of two killer paedophiles

    The majority of brits had no clue what they want or what the voting means, IMO. Something funny, anyway.

    Warcraft the Movie

    Watched it yesterday. Much nicer than most game->movie crap. Waiting for the sequals :) Khadgar not aging was odd, but I think it was the right decision - anyone not familiar with the lore will just wonder why he DID age for no apparent reason. If a sequal covers the second war, much...

    [MMO] World of Tanks

    Getting rid of premium rounds is a decent choice IMO. I feel like it mostly made armor obsolete and many medium tanks OP. There was nothing wrong with the mostly gold-less play. You bought certain tanks for their armor and they had indeed good armor. They're still balanced around that, usually...

    The Media's Latest Depictions of the AR-15 - Is it fair?

    Going home on a bus with the ancient M16's from basic training was like carrying a large broom with you. #Tavor4life

    We're going to need more bathrooms...

    The thing is, folks in the US seem to LOVE lawsuites and bickering over the law and how other people should behave. You support someone using the bathroom that matches their appearance...but thousands of others will scream about it because of various reasons (and of course, think of the...

    Looks like I'm not going to Thailand

    Grats :) Are you serious about years of waiting? O_O (Many Israelis who move to the US keep paying taxes here just so they can fly over for medical stuff when the need arises - it is *MUCH* cheaper and relatively quick)

    We're going to need more bathrooms...

    When you embrace unisex bathrooms, maybe some of the stupid in this thread will end, like LK's posts. Why go the wrong and nonsensical way about it?

    AT World of Warcraft Thread (Warlords, Where do you play, General BS and all that)

    Yep I remember getting an email months ago with 7 free days to try WoD or something. I think, however, that Legion will be the first WoW expack I won't buy. Community isn't there and real life has moved on.

    X-Men: Apocalypse. Very disappointing.

    Saw it last friday. Completely different opinion - I thought it was awesome. The backstory\villain were a nice surprise for me as an Israeli.

    McDonald's ex-CEO just revealed a terrifying reality for fast-food workers

    This is why the move to a global basic income with people working\studying as they see fit is the future. "work" is meaningless when it is used ONLY for production when automation can do it better. Mankind will have to figure out how to stay interested in life and how to better the community...

    Suzuki fuel economy cheating scandal

    Our 2 suzukis actually gave very good fuel mileage. The old one is still running and running with ~200K miles. I don't know about official estimates vs real life but compared to the competition they were cheap to run.

    Does the 802.11a lack performance on Galaxy Note line of products?

    That's odd because my note 3 gets a GPS signal REALLY fast. Also use RunKeeper, gmaps, waze etc. wifi and cell reception are also good. The device is almost 2 years old.

    Greek F-16D and USAF F-15E fly by over the Acropolis

    Hijacking for the hell of it. I live near Tel-Nof where F4's used to operate until they were retired in 2004. Seeing them on approach to land was really cool because they look like NASA's space shuttle from the front...and they were incredibly loud. Currently Tel-Nof hosts F-15's, CH-53's and...

    Intel wants more diversity

    Are these minorities as qualified as current employees? I think that is the only thing that should be looked at. Equal opportunity, not turning good people away because "diversity".

    Jorge Lorenzo quits Yamaha for Ducati

    Unrelated to Lorenzo but IMO, Rossi is the true '15 champ and Marquez is an asshole. :colbert:

    Which phone?! Galaxy S6/S7 or LG G4/G5

    How's NFC on the S7? This is the ONLY bad thing about my Note 3. The NFC just sucks - practically non-functional.

    Note 6 rumors, speculation, launch thread

    What made you upgrade to the note 4\5? My Note 3 is around 18 months old, feels, looks and performs exactly like it did on day 1 (and I get the feeling Samsung's QA is far better for the Notes than the S line). I get the itch, but there is no reason to actually upgrade.

    Mississippi State University students list of demands

    I wonder how white military vets compare to those who did not serve when it comes to racism. The IDF was always one of the main ways to integrate various ethnic groups into Israeli society, serving as a melting pot of sorts. That, and the fact that Israel is so small that after 2-3 generations...

    Mississippi State University students list of demands

    Can someone explain the "struggles"? As someone not living in the US I cannot imagine what kind of struggle those who are living in what is probably the best place in the entire world and history of mankind have. I know the US is still very conservative when it comes to same-sex (and sex in...

    If anyone wants to know reqs/sacrifices for full time Youtube/Streaming, see this

    Ads are so intrusive and offensive these days it is impossible to browse anything without ad blockers. 100% blame the ad makers. Most people wouldn't block simple ads that just sit there, without taking an entire page, causing 5-min load times, screaming at you and what not.

    Erdogan's thugs rough up journalists - in America!

    Isn't that the American way? :P You can also order them to lie down and arrest them - then deport them once their dear leader is back on the plane. Erduan has proved he doesn't care about freedom so I have little sympathy for him and his yes-men.

    Erdogan's thugs rough up journalists - in America!

    When I first heard about it I was surprised the guards were still alive - would think both armed citizens\journalists\PD would be all over them. Either they play by your rules or they GTFO.

    Men of ATOT: Why didn't you serve?

    As an Israeli I fail to understand why anyone would WANT to go half way around the world to fight a nonsense war concocted by impervious politicians against people who don't know and don't care about you. There's no glory in war and death. This applies to the 2 Iraqi wars...
