I feel like such an idiot, it totally didn't click for me that that's what was happening in the flashback. Which is funny because I instantly recognized what Tarrlock was doing.

What was Nintendo's most recent new IP? Pikmin? I guess there's Wii Sports, etc...

Solved the problem, if anyone else runs into it: shift-tabbing, to use the Steam overlay, makes the game think you're holding down the shift button. You can fix it by just hitting shift several times once you've returned to the game.

I can't help but look at the EU and all the sovereignty concerns and stuff and think of the US in the early, post-revolution days.

I pre-ordered it today, I've been tracking it since it was announced.

Preordered. Just realized it only comes out 2 days after Gods & Kings though...

My friends in college used to refer to the "Two Burrito Challenge." I never even attempted it, but three of them succeeded. *Edit* - Though at least one of the ones who succeeded has also been known to eat an entire large Pizza Hut pizza alone in a single sitting.

I thought freedom of speech cases were basically the only things susceptible to facial challenges. Anyway, from Wednesday's Colbert Report: Cracked me up.

Ah, for some reason I was thinking there had been a Versus VIII or XII or something.

I still can't get over how stupid the name is.

Is there a way to cancel a research and change to something else? If I click on a different research it just adds it to the queue, I can't figure out how to remove things from the queue.

It was... underwhelming.

Forgot to post this yesterday:

I've always been confused about the FF numbering. Do the "versus" games have anything to do with the numbered title they go with?

Confidentiality is a pretty standard settlement thing, regardless of whom it favors.

Yeah, plenty of GFWL games on Steam.

Biased article is biased. I'd like to hear more about the sovereign immunity argument.

http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Justice/2012/0531/Appeals-court-strikes-down-DOMA-Tradition-doesn-t-justify-unequal-treatment-video Federal appeals court holds the Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional. And it wasn't even the 9th Circuit!

No, it's surely unconstitutional, it's just the only way to get laws invalidated is to challenge them in court (or convince the legislature to repeal/change them, but that's not really "invalidating" them...), and the only way to do that is if they actually try to enforce it against you.

Yeah cable's better than an antenna for reception during bad weather, but if I don't have cable or an antenna then I have no TV at all, and since we cancelled our cable subscription I got an antenna so I can at least get something. The only reason I care about having TV is so that when there are tornadoes and such I can keep track of it. Yeah reception's going to be worse during a storm, but it doesn't usually go out altogether.

Because if they don't enforce it no one can challenge it in court.

Who needs a population when you have big guns? Anyway, I'm going to try to learn this game over the weekend and then maybe we can play multi when the beta goes up.

Yeah, as a kid I had much more patience for difficult/frustrating/slow games than I do now.
