    So I bought the game for my son. . .

    I'll check out that texture pack and the helper mod. Unfortunately, we are a one computer (though numerous smaller devices) family. We take turns because I can't justify the expense of upgrading my current computer much less adding another. So no LAN games for now.

    So I bought the game for my son. . .

    I bought Minecraft for my son's 6 birthday. He is pretty into it (only allowing offline play) though he doesn't want to go deep into the earth. The game is surprisingly complicated so I found a clean set of tutorials on Youtube. Unfortunately. . . As I was watching the tutorials (before...

    Windows Technical Support*

    So I've been receiving these sporadic phone calls from "Windows Technical Support" telling me all about the terrible viruses I have on my system. The whole thing is clearly a scam (well-defined on other sites). I played along for 45 minutes today, finally declining to download the software to...

    It would take you...

    487 Hours. But realistically, I've beaten several of the games before I had Steam and only bought them for nostalgia. So it's probably a bit lower.

    Car problems, ramping up car research and shopping

    Everything I'm reading says the opposite (unless it's a classic car).

    Car problems, ramping up car research and shopping

    Engine shudder or something with the tires, brakes, frame or suspension? Where did it feel like it was coming from? The indicator light seems to point to an engine issue. If it was engine stutter then it could be a fuel flow problem (check the fuel filter) or perhaps spark plugs? Was...

    God's power

    And what government in this world do you trust to handle that appropriately? Separation of Church and State is not to protect the government from religion, it is to protect religion from abuse by government. Same can be said of the entire Bill of Rights. It exists to protect everyone from...

    Christian new to Game mastering, looking for new players to join Pathfinder.

    I had a couple friends attempt to get me into role playing back in the 90's (wow, I'm getting old. . .). It just didn't stick. I'm fine doing it in a game (many, many hours in Skyrim) but just can't seem to get into it outside of that. Nowadays I just can't commit to the time needed for such...

    Update your wishlist please

    Ouch. Okay, I give Gerbil permission to take offense at that. (However true it might be. . .) (Gerbil, you can take offense at that too) :D

    Update your wishlist please

    I find that, when in doubt, it's best to default to a 'not offended' state. There is enough purposeful offense in the world that we don't need to be adding unintended offense to it. :D

    Update your wishlist please

    Well I'd hate to disappoint you. I'm adding you to my friends list. However, my wishlist is very small. I try to find games that will provide more than 10-15 hours before I hang them out to dry. . .unfortunately, that seems to be the exception rather than the rule.

    So what's everyone playing these days?

    I think I've finally burned myself out on Skyrim (maybe). I've been playing Warframe a bit recently. Either I didn't give it enough of a chance back in the day or things have changed for the better. I've found it rather enjoyable. I also still jump in War Thunder on occasion to satisfy my...

    Temberette 2: The Sequel now playing

    Praise God for this. Our second was much quicker as well (just not this quick). Good to hear everyone is doing okay (though I expect much sleepier). Hopefully your church organizes meals. Ours did (and does) and it was an awesome blessing to not have to make dinner for about a week.

    So, the Pope said this today.

    The Pope also believes in: Prayer to "saints" Saints are only created by the Catholic church Salvation is only through the Catholic church Purgatory (have indulgences been done away with?) Mary's perpetual virginity Eucarist etc. No offense to Catholics, but I have never looked to the Catholic...

    Minecraft - good for 6-year-old?

    Thanks for the replies. I'm going to give the demo a try after we get back from vacation.

    Minecraft - good for 6-year-old?

    Thanks for the extensive reply. I'll check out the demo. Maybe that's why I never saw the appeal of the game. . .or maybe I just hate the voxel look because I grew up with games limited to that.
