Coffee makes me tired, tea doesn't affect, and caffeinated sodas wake me. I have a 6th sense when it comes to PC hardware compatibility. (I was even good enough at it to combine PowerPC peripheral cards with a standard IBM-compatible PC for a decent gaming system back in the day) I have a Lay-Z-Boy reclining office chair, and I frequently move between reclined and not, and shifting positions. (it's a comfort thing, but I have read that it's exactly what is recommended for ergonomics) I came up with a way to mount my phone to the top of my laptop screen, allowing me to use it as a HUD map for Fallout 4. I modded my independently powered USB2.0 hub to output 2.2 amps, (default was only 1.8) just so that it would provide more power to my phone than my phone could ever use. (and it didn't require any power supply modifications, merely an alteration to the hub itself) I have never had a broken bone, and not for a lack of possibility. (I just naturally dodge breaks, even when landing in way that should break a neck, after falling 2 stories) I also have never dislocated anything, despite extraordinarily loose joints, and reduced range of movement. (my knees can bend sideways by up to 15 degrees) Any drug that I take more than once has a 50% reduction in effect every subsequent dose. (this includes extremely powerful painkillers, and recreational drugs) The effect returns over time, but never exceeds 70% of the first usage. (it was a 10 year delay that got it back to 70%) My great/great great/grandparents (etc. as far back as the family can determine) all were alcoholics, and my parents are both struggling to keep from becoming alcoholics... I have never even begun to feel inclined towards alcoholism, and have yet to exceed the 'mild-buzz' state despite taking in excessive amounts of alcohol. I also recover from the effects much faster than anyone else I've heard of. (15 minutes and I'm not buzzed, 30 minutes and I can pass a breathalyzer test) I have a reduced range of audio hearing that cuts out the 17.4kHz-17.8kHz range and tops out around 20.4kHz, but I can perceive all frequencies accurately from 8Hz-27kHz. (I can feel it, not hear it, and it's impossible to describe it to anyone who can't perceive sound this way) I have a survival plan for just about any end-of-the-world scenario it is possible to survive... They are very detailed, and most people think their plans would work better than mine despite the plans almost exactly mirroring those that are used by people that inevitably die in movies/games about said EotW scenarios. The majority of my plans involve gathering supplies here, then moving to the Gavin's Point dam in S.D. and fortifying it, so come visit me there in a zombie apocalypse! I am probably one of the few people in the world that would be able to thrive without any human contact for years, without any significant issues. (like losing the ability to talk normally, or hold a conversation, etc.) I have previously made a functioning prototype for a quantum power generator (it produced about 0.5 amps at 1.116 volts) but lost it in a move. When I tried to get a research grant, I was ridiculed and laughed at, they thought I was a kook kid that couldn't possibly have what I claimed to have. (and now I'm following research being made into the technology, and they effectively duplicated my design, only 5 years after I made one) I know a guy who is working on a functional Star Trek style replicator. He is able to lay any metal or synthetic material at molecule-level resolution in any pattern, but it is too slow for commercial use at this time. He did print a nice CPU a while back though, far superior in assembly quality to the normally produced model it was based on. (it was an early core2 quad) I actually had something way better to post here, but I forgot it when I reread all my posts here to see if I had already posted it.

Just got over a massive sinus drainage and clogging illness, then I have excessive coughing, now it's a throbbing headache that refuses to go away regardless of medication. (not to mention parents that couldn't care less)

Win 7 works just fine as long as it isn't AMD, (I'm running it that way right now) so Bethesda still doesn't look like they have anything at all to do with it. My vent: I hate it when people blame some company or person for something they didn't do. (example, blaming mod makers for glitches inherent in the game, or for glitches caused by other mods; blaming Bethesda for AMD's horrible dirvers and business practices)

The Ridiculous 6. 8.8/10 One of the better Adam Sandler movies, Netflix exclusive, lots of big-name actors, Vanilla Ice as Mark Twain.

My own personal recipe homemade chocolate chip cookies. (1 bag mini-chocolate chips, half bag regular chocolate chips, use vanilla bean paste instead of extract +25% amount, and add the water for high altitude to the sugar mix after adding the eggs, all else the standard Toll House recipe) Oh, and a Mt.Dew Game Fuel. (citrus cherry flavor)

I must say that it does look like they're trying to solidify and expand the lore in this one... There isn't any reference to major battles being fought on the moon prior to this game. (and could be an indication of expansions or games to come)
-
I've been looking into this for some time now... Been awhile since I last checked on it though. It's good that people (even if it is a remarkably low number of them) are finding out about it, then we have people who can recognize it when it eventually gets here, and stop it from taking hold. (hopefully)

Fallout 4 again... Have to go through and reinstall a mod though. (it's causing significant cell loading delays, on the order of minutes)
-
+1 You should check out the beginning of this thread... People complaining about it sucking BEFORE it was even released.
-
Yeah, you didn't get the reference. Hell.

Accursed Farms members love scarecrows with creepy demonic red-eyed cows inside the barn.

8/10 Honestly, I want an avatar size of at least 160px so I can do a different scene that I find to be the epitome of Data...

You're not here, or there, Ninja... You're just being paranoid.

Headache. (also interchangeable with "tired")
-
Banned for confirming my paranoia by not confirming it.
-
I can completely disassemble, clean, lube, and reassemble my SR40c pistol while blind... Of course, I wouldn't want to have to, because a blind person is very dangerous with a gun. (especially this person, if blind)

Feeling like crap. Gotta go to work tomorrow, but I have a messed up sleep schedule, and my parents are making it worse by saying "just go to bed and you'll fall asleep" then bugging me until I go to bed, at which point I'm way too annoyed to sleep. *exasperated sigh* Why can't they just listen to what I'm saying, and believe that I know what I'm talking about when I say I'm not a normal person, and sleep doesn't work that way for me?
-
Updating and reinstalling Fallout 4 mods that improve performance without sacrificing any visual quality. (texture mods that do this are interesting, but also awesome) Also finding it really cool that Fallout 4 may actually get more mods before the GECK releases, than previous Fallout games have total right now. It is a very real possibility, despite someone that stole unreleased parts of other mods to release his own NSFW mod, and got banned because he was stupid enough to think he wouldn't get caught. (I am still using his mod though, because I don't give up on decent quality just because the guy who made it was a dick)

I hate my life. Not that I want it to end prematurely, I just hate it.

Yeah, that was a large portion of the problem, but there were other things that felt tedious too. (I think the majority of it was that I just couldn't find any use at all for psionics, much less get them to work)

You really need to reread what I posted, as I never said it wasn't an achievement. I merely mentioned that it's a lot easier to achieve when you don't have to spend $40,000 per episode. Since you were comparing it to network shows as well, you should bear in mind production cost differences as well as the audience impact of the show when stating just how significant an achievement it is. (I still have yet to meet anyone that isn't in my family, or on a sci-fi related site that has ever even heard about RvB, but I've never even heard of someone that doesn't know the basic storyline of Star Trek)
