  1. That is absolutely what Kyio deserves: to be constantly reminded by a Force ghost that he simply can't measure up to Uncle Luke, his mother, or his grandfather. "Oh, so that's your grand plan, kid...I mean, 'Supreme Leader Ren'? Well, that's pretty adorable!"
  2. There is no need for "redemption" for Luke I'm hoping that he spends the entirety of IX mocking the hell out of Kyio Ren.
  3. The extreme heatwaves and wildfires wreaking havoc around the globe are “the face of climate change”, one of the world’s leading climate scientists has declared, with the impacts of global warming now “playing out in real time”
  4. I can confirm that 35X at DCA is the worst gate at any US airport.
  5. For those two components, that's correct. Excluding those two components, real final sales for domestic purchasers rose 3.9% in the second quarter.
  6. The U.S. economy accelerated to a 4.1 percent pace of growth in the second quarter, the fastest since 2014, letting President Donald Trump claim a win for his policies even though expansion is projected to cool. The effects of the trade situation can be seen here: Illustrating the volatility of some elements of GDP, net exports contributed 1.06 percentage point to the pace of growth, the most since 2013, partly on a surge in soybean shipments ahead of retaliatory tariffs. Inventories subtracted 1 point, the most since 2014, Commerce said, citing soybean stocks as well as those of drugs and sundries and petroleum and related products.
  7. You really, REALLY don't want me to do that.
  8. When we downloaded the .CSV file Members list from the Dreamhost server's Members directory to begin re-establishing user accounts, we noticed that "-Chris" was missing from the list entirely and that was the list that contained everyone's post count and reputation score. I downloaded a Member's list from the old server's SQL database and while "-Chris" was present on that list, that list does not contain the post count and reputation score. We noticed that there was another inactive user who also had a screen name that began with a "-" that was also not present on the .CSV file but was present on the SQL database. @Jason and I concluded that the .CSV file was interpreting the leading hyphen as a mathematical formula and was erroring out any user that had one.
  9. I really have no freakin' idea. I mean, I'm not opposed in the least to slapping Erdogan with sanctions -- I just wish it was for EVERYTHING ELSE that he's done.
  10. @DPCyric @Wild @thewhyteboar This was one of the strongest first seasons for any show that I'be seen in ages. It's also perhaps one of the most unflinchingly brutal!
  11. I made the prefix but forgot to activate it on The Spawn Point. It should be active there now.
  12. They can't afford it anyway: Facebook stock drops 20% in after-market trading.
  13. Deadwood, HBO’s groundbreaking Western drama that last aired more than a decade ago, has been greenlit for a feature-length movie that wraps up its canon. Casey Bloys, the HBO chief of programming, made the announcement during the Television Critics Association press tour this week.
  14. Yes, there is a BIG mod (in development for 5 years) for Fallout: New Vegas called "Fallout: New California" releasing in October.
  15. The mod's progress can be followed at its site. *So what else do we know about the mod? Looking at the information given by the modders on their blog and subreddit, they want Fallout Miami to be comparable to official DLC, with "a main quest, multiple side quests, new items and a large cast of voiced characters". If you hadn't guessed from the name already, the mod is set in Miami beach, with a map size "slightly larger than Far Harbor". The core subject matter of the mod seems to be an "ideological struggle between Order and Freedom," which seems to sit nicely with themes found in previous Fallout games such as New Vegas.*
  16. Which means that there is no deterioration in her condition. You can be in "critical but stable" condition.
