  1. That's not surprising, so long as the Corpocrats are still in charge of the DNC. But then again a lot can change in a year.
  2. lol Whoever comes up with shit like this is a genius
  3. Yes, they know no boundaries when it comes to hypocrisy. I don't try to argue with them anymore though. And any reasoning bounces right off of their thick skulls.
  4. Just started a new Wolfenstein: The New Order playthrough. But I'm having technical issues with it not wanting to run in fullscreen, and when I do get it to, there's a big drop in framerate. I hear disabling DPI scaling fixes it, but it doesn't seem to for me. Oh well. I guess it's better to have optimal framerate in windowed mode than a slideshow on fullscreen. But I think the game was released prior to Windows 10, too. Anyway, this is just to whet my appetite for the new one coming out in just over a week. Hopefully it won't have these same issues then.
  5. Fuck. This is nothing short of pure evil. And fuck anyone who would argue that the alt-right are morally superior.
  6. As much as I'd like to see Infamous Orang impeached, I'm guessing it probably won't happen until 2019, as we'd need to wrest control of Congress from the GOP come midterm elections late next year first. But obviously I'm concerned about how much more damage he's capable of in the meantime.
  7. Oh yeah, I got halfway thru MRB but never finished it. A controller/game pad is definitely the way to go. I also recommend connecting your PC to your TV monitor via HDMI cable if you have one, so you get the full console-like experience.
  8. One of the most badass grannies around has somethin' to say about shitty drivers

  10. I've found that, as with the base game, once you reach a certain point your squad is way overpowered (esp when you train up a psy op). Have you defeated all of the chosen yet? Game gets a lot easier when you don't have to worry about them popping up. Nope, but I did get very close on the mission where you put down the Assassin for good. Then I got my ass handed to me. Then I deleted all of my saves and started over from scratch, then got my ass handed to me on the second mission. Restarted that one, and got my ass handed to me again. I'm sorry, but it's not worth the frustration for me anymore. Not sure if I'm gonna uninstall it, but I'll at least be taking a break from it for a while. In the meantime, there's loads of classic Doom mods to fall back on. And the new Wolfenstein in two weeks.
  11. Well, fuck XCOM 2: WotC. I can't count how many times I've had to restart missions now. It's been rampant frustration from the get-go. Probably time to uninstall. Besides, I've already beaten the base game.
  12. My water heater is on its last legs, but I can't afford to get it replaced. But the weird thing is I was able to take a decent shower last night. Still, very much a stupid FWP compared to Myanmar, Puerto Rico, North Cali, etc.
  13. Whatever the case may be, my hope is that Trump eventually succeeds at uniting (most of) the country...against himself. Probably still in the early stages, but I have a feeling it's brewing.
  14. XCOM 2: WotC is too damn hard and frustrating. Might just shelve it and go back to Ruiner instead. But then again that one's not a walk in the park either. But at least it's easier to recuperate after failure.
  15. Saw this on FB a few minutes ago. What can I say. He's on point.
  16. Yup. The political pendulum is swingin' harder than the inside of Ninja's boxer shorts at a Die Antwoord gig.
  17. Yeah, that tactic worked out real well last year didn't it? Isn't it time for the Dems to adopt a new strategy? Like quit trying to prop up shitty candidates?
  18. And I though that lady biting another lady over that Tickle-Me-Elmo shit on Black Friday back in '96 was ridiculous. This is why I don't partake in zombie-like mindless consumerism.
  19. Just now discovered Phoenix Point, an upcoming turned-based strategy being developed by X-COM's original creator Julian Gollop: https://phoenixpoint.info/game/ Looks like it's not coming out until late next year though.
