  1. Getting pissed at a fly that my Dad led down to the computer room... Oh, and getting ready to watch something on Netflix.
  2. Did I say you could leave?!?
  3. Just voice it here, and I'll tell you if it's a good/bad/insane idea... Then you can decide from there. I promise not to judge.
  4. "33" Export beer, (it's Vietnamese beer, it was really popular during the Vietnam war) and some Hershey's Cookies 'n' Cream bars.
  5. Hope you don't have issues past this...
  6. I hope to be able to get a copy sometime soon!
  7. Most "flak jackets" you see in stores are just mislabeled plate carriers, they don't actually have any armor in them. The ones that are legit armor, still wouldn't be very good for melee protection. True flak jackets are designed to protect from the shrapnel emitted from exploding flak rounds, (usually not aerodynamic, moving at around 3000fps, and extremely low mass) and nothing else. They have trouble protecting against bullets, (it'd be good against .22cal rimfire, but that's about it) blunt-force, (fists, clubs, etc.) and knives. (or anything really sharp with a lot of mass/force)
  8. Can't even use both hands, or any pockets... Just 1 item... You're giving me so many reasons to never try this game. OT: Wasteland 2: Director's Cut. Very fun, and editing the save game (it's in a plain-text file, and designed for easy editing) to give yourself top-of-the-line weapons (tier 6) at the beginning of the game is remarkably fun... I'm going to restart, and do a single character playthrough. (should be interesting running around with a G41, assault scope, laser sight, sound suppressor, and an RPG at level 1)
  9. And that is what mods are for. Mods are wonderful, aren't they... It's sad more companies don't make mods a high priority for their singleplayer games.
  10. Too bad they aren't asking for Wasteland 1, the one that started the Fallout series. (same creator, and he just couldn't get the IP back from EA to be able to do Wasteland 2 instead of Fallout)
  11. Epicness... Can't wait for more. (disclaimer: exaggeration)
  12. Yes, it's a gimmick... It's a standard fragmentary round for handguns, with a more uniform spread pattern. It won't even do as much damage as a hollow point. Fun to watch in videos though!
  13. There's your problem right there...
  14. We could make a laserdisk with a link to each of the episodes, and a streaming program on it... Wouldn't violate the IP then.
  15. Considering I don't know what a 'name day' is, I'll go with birthday. Editing a post afterwards to fix a problem only to have it end up worse, or accidentally deleting the post entirely?
  16. Nonsense.
  17. 2463 - For some reason the previous post number, and this number remind me of Battlefield 1942 and 1943...
  18. I'll give it a go tomorrow, see what I get...
  19. Ghost peppers are really hard to find...
  20. I'd say it's worth it... OT: Heading to bed.
  21. So call them and complain... Start by saying in a calm and collected, not angry, tone that you need to have a paycheck to get to work, then ask if there's any other way you can get your check. After that, if there is no movement, ask for their supervisor, and do the exact same thing as you did with the first person. If nothing happens in a couple days, call again and be forceful, but not violent, don't yell, stern tone. Say you NEED that check so you can get to work. If nothing is going to happen, then say very plainly, not angrily, that you are going to look into legal counsel concerning the theft of your paycheck. If nothing happens, do actually seek legal counsel. (the shady looking TV lawyers are usually decent about getting you paid)
  22. I hope you don't do that often. Those things do hell on your stomach lining. Increases chance of ulcers. Though I have heard that peppers weirdly decrease chance of gastric cancer. Everything in moderation I guess. On most people, yes it does damage tissues, however I am one of the few that doesn't have that problem. Now a Reaper pepper is a completely different story... That literally causes caustic burns to anyone if you don't cut it with something else.
  23. Then you wouldn't want an EOD suit... If you're looking for something that'll break bones, and most knives, look no further than mild steel plate! It's cheap, easy to mold, and totally impenetrable to unarmed combatants. (it's also lighter than an EOD suit by about 20%) Full armor of ¼" mild steel, added outer side hardening with custom welding, (making it even harder to damage) molded to fit your body, would weigh in around 400lbs and cost about $800. (it would also be the equivalent of a suit of plate armor, only stronger and heavier) If you want to go even lighter, and just block unarmed, and some knives... Light stainless steel. ⅛" would be the sweet spot, and it'll only weigh around 200lbs. Can even laminate it with light leather to make it less obvious you're wearing armor. It'll cost you about double the mild steel price though.
  24. -Lite Codec Pack. It removes all codecs from your system, leaving it incapable of playing any audio or video file.
