  1. Too late, France and Russia aren't in the main release and will be DLCs, even though combined they made up 58% of Allied losses.
  2. Too dry and salty to be eaten on their own, definitely are a delivery service for other, wetter things.
  3. Where is "voted for a terrible war that killed hundreds of thousands of people, destablized the entire Middle East, and spawned ISIS?" Or "backed a coup in Honduras that turned Honduras into the murder capital of the world?"
  4. Grabbed an Asus MG279Q last Christmas, 1440p, 144hz, IPS panel. It's goddamn beautiful.
  5. I'm excited to see what they'll add with expansions in a few months. Obviously more events and anomalies with every one, more endgame catastrophes, more techs. Ground combat seems likely to get an overhaul, very bare bones right now.
  6. If you believe Jill Stein, nuclear power plants are weapons of mass destruction waiting to go off. I guess we're still building Chernobyl-like reactor designs staffed by imbeciles in her mind.
  7. Irrelevant Green Party candidate Jill Stein hosts AMA on reddit, posts uninformed hippie screed about how nuclear power is bad and should feel bad, gets downvoted to hell. Post Ah, the Green Party, pandering to hippies with ravings against nuclear power and for woo like homeopathic medicine, and accomplishing nothing of any benefit for the environment. Hilarious.
  8. Yeah, I've been playing the hell out of it. An interesting mix of 4X and grand strategy, with probably my favorite tech system I've seen in a strategy game. Instead of the usual tech tree, techs are more like cards in a deck, weighted based on their rarity, so every game is different and every faction unlocks different things. And being a Paradox game, it's extremely moddable, so I expect complete overhaul mods for Warhammer 40K, Star Wars, Star Trek, Mass Effect, etc. to come out within a few months. Highly recommended.
  9. I wouldn't be so confident about Trump's chances against Hillary. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/05/02/republicans-have-a-massive-electoral-map-problem-that-has-nothing-to-do-with-donald-trump/?tid=sm_fb
  10. Running theory I've seen around is that when the polls have Clinton ahead by a lot, her supporters get complacent and stay home, while the Bernie voters turn out regardless of the polls.
  11. 538 had Clinton at 90% chance of winning too, ha. The Clinton supporters I've spoken to all seem very confident about Clinton v. Trump, but if Clinton has turned a battle against a relatively unknown 74 year old Vermont senator who openly calls himself a socialist in America into this close of a contest, it does not bode well for her campaign strategy against Trump. If anyone can fail to beat Trump, it's Hillary Clinton.
  12. Not even just the citrus, nearly everything under "alkaline" is acidic. Apples are 3.3-3.9, strawberries 3.0-3.9, bananas 4.5-5.2, grapes 3.5-4.5, pineapple 3.2-4.0, watermelon 5.2-5.6, red onion 5.3-5.8, kiwi 3.1-3.9, peas 5.8-7.0, asparagus 6.1.
  13. Man if she think "everybody's friendly grandpa" Bernie Sanders is mean, how on Earth is she going to handle Donald Trump in a debate.
  14. That is the Labarum, the standard flown by Constantine the Great's army after he claimed to receive a vision from the Christian God before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge.
  15. Well, looks like Paradox is going to steal all my time this summer with Stellaris and Hearts of Iron 4. Stellaris looks excellent, and HoI4 looks much less wildly overcomplicated than HoI3 was.
  16. My state, Rhode Island, ran this flag from 1882-1897: : Then switched to the current one: Definitely a distinct downgrade in quality.
  17. I enjoyed the David Tennant Doctor Who in a turn your brain off kind of way, but the rest of it is unwatchable.
  18. Reading through A Song of Ice and Fire right now after watching the show, on A Clash of Kings right now. Surprising absolutely nobody, the books are better.
  19. I'm honestly missing that mid-2000s "Every Game is WWII" era. Every shooter has been "Five Years in the Future" since CoD4. Wouldn't mind a Korean War or Vietnam one either.
  20. I remember seeing a video where they had young chinese-americans and their grandparents who grew up in China try Panda Express, and while the young ones were whining about how it wasn't authentic, the older ones who had actually lived in China pretty much universally liked it.
  21. They... they realize that if deer aren't hunted, due to the lack of predators they'll enter a boom-bust cycle and suffer even more, right?
  22. Why doesn't anyone just grab some kind of blaster shotgun to fight Jedi? A lightsaber can't block multiple shots at once. Is that anywhere in the EU?
  23. I feel like just looking at a photo of that thing puts you at risk of diabetes.
