  • Take that rune, put it in a portable hole, build a clockwork or magical button-pressing machine, unleash chaos and destruction on demand.

    That trap's gotta be worth a million gold pieces.

  • "And then there's the time my officer took a vacation on planet vacation, and decided to do a terrorism."

  • Thanks, I hate it. One more set of batteries, one more flaky wireless link to troubleshoot. Please take all those fancy electronics, and put them inside the phone where they belong.

  • Where do you plug in your headphones?

  • Can confirm. I once had a letter opener made to look like a tiny katana, with a scabbard and everything. It was fucking awesome.

  • Counterpoint from Douglas Adams:

    The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

    I am 100% in favor of Jon Stewart for president, especially if he refuses to run.

  • The comments will stop once the files have been released.

  • Where are they getting batteries for $115/kWh? Going market rate for LiFePO3 LiFePO4 seems to be at least 10 times that.

  • Who could have predicted that hanging ten conflicting kernel-level anti-cheat installations might cause compatibility problems?

  • Yes, they were organic dyes. At the time, those were the only kind. Maybe it's gotten better over the years.

  • This is terrible advice. Most writable DVDs degrade quickly, even if they're stored away from sunlight and heat. Every single one of my burned DVDs from more than a few years back is completely unreadable.

    Update: I missed the very important line about M-DISC. This is critical. I can't vouch for M-DISC personally, but most other optical media is garbage for archival purposes.

  • In this case, I knew it because of a "botanicals" set that I assembled recently.

    Those sets use a lot of pieces in creative ways, often in unusual colors. In particularly obscure cases, like this crown or the rose petals that were originally from a car fender, the manual will include a brief trivia callout.

    I remembered the callout, and that was enough to find it by keyword on the fan database sites.

  • Thanks I hate it. Nope nope nope.

  • Perjury like that is not an "error", it's a crime.

  • "Stand back, I'm beginning to Morb!" takes on a whole new meaning.

  • I am not a vampire lawyer, but vampire courts do tend to side with the vampire when these types of questions come up after the fact.
