    What Bible translation do you use?

    You've got a lot of nerve coming here and spouting off verses that imply that another poster is a fool for making jokes about your ignorant and needlessly divisive beliefs, and then going on to suggest that you are somehow above this argument. If you really wanted to place yourself on that...

    ATF Agent Admits To Reporter That He Was Ordered To Let Guns Cross Into Mexico

    Perhaps I should rephrase a bit. My opinion is that when dealing with the drug trade we should A make drug offenses beyond possession for personal use a capital crime, and B forcefully engage the cartels with our military might, treating it like an actual war. These people have built a...

    ATF Agent Admits To Reporter That He Was Ordered To Let Guns Cross Into Mexico

    If that is really true then that's pretty terrible. The only thing we should be letting any of those cartel scumbags have is a bullet to the head. To think that guns the ATF intentionally allowed through have only wound up empowering the cartels is disgusting. That said, I personally take no...

    Crysis 2 demo

    What I saw of it looked very pretty, and seemed to run surprisingly well, but unfortunately it seems that it overheats my GPU even with the fans maxed out. For this reason I have been unable to judge the actual gameplay, and even considering a purchase is out of the question until I have a new PC.

    Article - Where is Obama as Middle East boils?

    Did I really say that I think we should get out? Maybe not in this thread I might have said something to that effect but I will clarify. The only reason I have any interest in leaving the Middle East is because of the money we have to spend to be there and the lives we lose in being there...

    Article - Where is Obama as Middle East boils?

    Mubarak was more your ally than the new populist regime is liable to be. A secular dictator, even if he is oppressive is far and away preferable to radical Islamist "democracy" that is the most likely alternative. Unless you're too narrow minded to realize that not all dictators are the same or...

    Article - Where is Obama as Middle East boils?

    Since I'm going to be losing some of my freedom of speech at the month when I leave for basic training I'm going to speak my mind on this now. To answer the title question, even if it's not the point, I would have to say: Obama is probably flying around the world dragging half his...

    Great RPG games?

    Bioware stuff aside (which, as has been mentioned, is pretty uniformly great) I really haven't played much in the way of RPGs in recent years, but there some old ones I can recommend in case you missed them. Planescape: Torment would probably be my highest recommendation. I would rank it, and...

    Blizzard (the actual thing, not the company)

    After having an almost ridiculously mild winter up to this point, this snowstorm has hit us pretty hard. There hasn't been a great deal of snow, but the temperature is in the single digits and the wind is the worst I've seen outside of some hurricanes back in NC. It's times like this when you...

    Magicka (aka: c'mere lemme heal you with my warhammer)

    I enjoyed the demo quite a bit, the game seems like it would make for hilarious co-op situations. Probably going to pick it up as soon as I have the chance. That article definitely got me interested as well. It actually originated from Rock Paper Shotgun, which for anyone who doesn't already...

    Requests for quick Steam game reviews

    I love Just Cause 2, probably my favorite open world action game. I can't really say how the PC experience compares to console, but it the PC version appears to have been better reviewed. I've found the game to run very nicely on the PC, just turn off some of the fancy sounding but hardly...

    What happens if I do this? Freeze myself, eve online style

    I would say that you are being far too optimistic about the future, and even modern times. There are a number of points which bear mention here. The first thing that needs to be brought up is your assumption that the future will be defined by infinite resources and a lack of poverty, this runs...

    What happens if I do this? Freeze myself, eve online style

    Nevermind the cost or the fact that the world likely won't last that long anyway; US law prohibits pre-mortem cryonic preservation. That means that you really will be dead before they'd be allowed to freeze you. Honestly, if you believe you're going to heaven after you die, why would you want to...

    Minecraft

    Minecraft is an excellent game. If we ever get server hardware set up perhaps we should set up a server and make some interesting stuff. The difference between Classic and Alpha is that Classic is free and functions more as a sandbox for making structures or exploring, while Alpha requires a...

    Team Fortress 2 Trading

    I've got a fedora that never gets used, how would that in exchange for the brigade helm sound?

    Plain Sight

    Since it was so cheap I bought a four pack to give away. I've got two copies left; anyone who would like one and would play it should message me either by PM or on steam.

    TF2 Frustrations

    I had a rather lengthy post that I accidentally lost (thanks busted ctrl key and your failure to register my copy command) so instead I'll just summarize: -This game crashes all the time for me, I can barely get into a game -This game takes forever to load, and then crashes when I alt+tab...

    Broken Headphones, Again

    Incorrect, I can and will use it. The fact that you've been borrowing it for an extended period of time does not make it yours; you're just going to have to pony up the cash and buy your own mic.

    Broken Headphones, Again

    I actually have on of those very usb mics lying around somewhere, so I think I'll combine that with those Sennheiser headphones, since they look comfortable and cost about as much as I can afford right now. Hopefully having the headphones and mic separate will mean less fallibility and easier...

    Broken Headphones, Again

    My continuing bad luck with headphones is getting to be pretty infuriating now that my latest pair (which I've owned for less than a year) is having serious issues. I want to ask if anyone here has any idea how to resolve my problem. The issue seems to be something on the order of a crossed...
