      There's a few missions where you can play as a dog.

      I remember there was a video on YouTube of a group of guys shooting at a goat. Apparently shooting at the goat prompts an artillery strike on your position.

      lol... Reminds me of a friend who was really into OFP. The scripting is nuts - he made a map where you enter by trying to safely land a Scud missile. At another point you can get into an M-16, but it doesn't go anywhere...

  2. I didn't exactly buy them since you could order these from the NRCS website for free. The Key to Soil Taxonomy is a book I will need for a class in the fall which oddly is sold in on campus in a crappy printed edition. That book is the up-to-date version (2011) of the red book (1999) which still has the bulk of the stuff still in use. I only needed the small book but I got the red one just because. The book to the right is just what it is called. It gives a pretty good rundown of what is happening across the US (Like soil types) but of course you'll need to dig up more localized information. I think it'll come in use if I need to research anything. Posters are just posters. SOIL SCIENCE. FUCK YEAH!
  3. So, Notch and HumbleBrony are duking it out... A LOT. They're both shy of $10k.
  4. Close enough. Its so close that I didn't even bother playing it.
  5. I am completely stumped on how to reset my modem/router. With that, I think I am going to give up on a Minecraft server from my place.

      Did you turn it off and turn it on again?

      Yup. Also while holding down the reset button for 30 seconds and shit.

  6. This might be spoiler-ish so you are warned.
  7. @Chew Before you come back to add in an age jump:I am not sure how old Dany is currently but even if we shot up her age by five years, she will still be 18 and be more or less the same. So FDS point still stands. I think things will change with Dany in the Winds of Winter after what happened in Dance. Of course things could go your way. I just believe there will not be a happy ending but Dany will survive through or very near the end of all this.
  8. Its sort of like this: The thing about religion, I think, is that folks place put quite a deal of value on how old it is. Then there is the faith portion of it.
  9. April 6th, 2013... so now I need to wait for next season and the next book? Oh, fuck me.
  10. Haven't heard much about it on TV or anything. I can say that I like this more than that wedding.
  11. I recently gave it a spin after having it for a while but not touching it... its pretty good.
  12. The story is so deliciously cheesy. I LOVE IT!
  13. Yeah, I know it was PC. A glance can tell me as such. I'm just don't have high hopes that there will be some sort of problem but then again, maybe Ubisoft finally learned.
  14. Looks very interesting indeed. It has great atmosphere because the setting looks amazing. Sad thing is... its Ubisoft. Knowing their track record I don't have high hopes for a good PC release. If I can pass on Assassin Creed, I can pass on this. I really don't want to since again, it looks amazing.

    Sim City V

    That is no bueno. I want to have that option to build up the greatest city and destroy it by bringing on the Doom. :\ Sure I am content with just building a city normally but it doesn't make me happy of losing freedom of doing what I want.

    World Politics

    http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/Canada/20120602/couple-to-wed-balk-at-extra-music-fees-120602/#ixzz1wkLDLgEi The United States will welcome the business. For example... considering an international convention in NA? Well, screw Canada! Smaller gatherings like weddings seems to be somewhat okay since they're usually under 100 people but an additional $9.25 is sort of eh. I bet this also applies to funerals too so don't play any sort of copyrighted music! Makes me wonder what, if any, exemptions there are to this fee.
  17. Aaaand suddenly I am back into Minecraft.

      Those new snapshots look real enticing. They seem to be fixing all the damage the new map generator code did to the feel of the game. :)

      The large biomes are sexy.

      @Dean, I haven't manage to get it to work yet. Silly router/modem

  18. Depends on how you cook them. I also don't recall spinach actually storing salt so I doubt it would be that. If they are high in anything, it would be iron.
  19. Just listen... AFFC spoilers FYI. http://tindeck.com/listen/vkxz
  20. I swear I eat like the older generations of my family... all thanks to my grandma. So, you are poor and Chinese... what do you eat? This with white rice. And it is damn tasty but very salty. I swear it has 1000% of recommend salt intake. Still very good though. However, for my health sake, I cooked up some spinach as well since at Farmer's, its $2 for three bunches that I can split into six meals. Sadly, I can't be Popeye.
  21. Then with the Gallup site I got... I can maybe find more exact info but I am wondering if they do divide up the country by area, not by population. Also the actual data is interesting... I think its part of a poll that they run every few years since the 1980s. in which they survey about 100 people each time. That is my impression by just glancing but overall the data stays pretty much the same.

    Day Z

    The honeymoon is over so time for some real impressions... Gaming and core human nature just have a hard time mixing. Most people will shoot on sight because there is little reason not to. Not one is really dying or getting killed so we might as well do what is best for us which in most cases is to kill for loot even if the other person doesn't even have anything better than you. Main reason is because if the person with the better loot get spotted, he got a better chance at getting shot by the person with the lesser gear. It is a really vicious cycle that is only broken by pre-game grouping and planning. I seriously believe this game could be a really good case study on how people react when there is nothing to lose to do a bad thing. With that said, it can get really tense at times because if you are alone, you want to remain alone. You don't want to attract anybody to yourself. So you think twice about shooting ANYTHING if you don't have a silent weapon. Now with the reverse of detecting other players, you will always be on a lookout since they can be anywhere and a surprise attack can end you in less than a second. Unless you are really screwing around, this would not be a game to play to relax but it is a great game even with the bugs. Also if you have noticed, I barely mention the zombies. While they are deadly, they can be dealt with easily enough. Rocket may have said that zombies should not be the main focus but I think it may have been taken way too far. They should be dangerous enough that you really think twice about engaging them or even catching their attention. This would make the game more emergent since now players should be joining up more often than shooting at each other in game. Main reason I am saying this is that grouping up outside the game kind of break immersion and it really leave solo players in a rut. This mod is more interesting with other people but currently solo players who don't have outside connections are getting shafted. A post infection world should have the agressive last man on earth folks to friendly folks to those two in groups. Hopefully AI fixes and improvements will iron out my issue above since I believe no play style should get shafted. Solo play should be possible but the world should encourage more group play. Heh, mini review and critique from my phone...
  23. Two...? Did they get smaller or something? Then again, back in high school the Chipotle across the street made theirs a bit bigger than most other stores. Ah.. memories. Every other Friday was Chipotle Day with me having an extra long lunch period. Eat it nice and slowly compared to clomping it down in under five minutes on most other days.
  24. About Solyndra? A quick rundown since I'm working on a project... They got granted a massive $535 million loan which they wasted on lobbying some more, redecoration and some other jazzy stuff. The latter part wasn't really known until they suddenly closed their doors last year. Sure China is pumping out cheaper solar panels but a half a billion USD can't make Solyndra in fighting shape with them? Bullshit. Its not a pretty black eye.
