Guest Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 People who complain about having no money for the food and bills after they have been told they can't afford to have pets because it is very expensive especially veterinarian interventions. No, I will not give you the money for your another pet's operation lady. I will not give you the money for your pet's food and medicine. Last time you asked the money for your bills but you spent 200 Euros on your pet's operation not paying the water, electricity and other bills first. Don't try to play on my sympathy for I have none for irresponsible people who has no sympathy for people in need and spend the last penny on the pet starving herself and living without water and electricity. Enough is enough.

I'm either going to make it in this life with my private "ventures" from now on or I will end up a fucking fifty year old bum working at McDonalds. Would you like some fries with that, Sir? Oh, and politicizing your mod(s) might be a great way to influence peep's thinking! Like LL mods tell me to fuck and enjoy it instead of desensitizing me to violence. Honestly that's all my character wants to do in Skyrim anymore; Party and fuck. No such luck with Fallout though, since shooting people I don't like is still very satisfying. I worked in an environment like that, Well, let me put it more accurately: I worked in an office environment, once upon a time, that valued my initiative and eagerness to understand the processes that were happening around me. I culminated that into a sort of iron-clad relevance within that workspace. Earned raises. Autonomy. One day, that workplace (and the workspace) got re-structured. I ended up in another office building, with very little of the former autonomy I had enjoyed, and none of communal amenities such as a coffee shop, and a decent, eclectic cafeteria. My new co-workers seemed to delight in my "downgrade." Like crabs in a bucket -- They'd dragged me down to their own miserable level. That lasted precisely 2 months, before I gave my notice. ... I never knew that SexLab and associated mods (DD, etc.) could add such a satisfying dimension to Skyrim. I still enjoy adventuring (got Thalmor patrols to slaughter, after all!) But coming home to Chloe (who I took under my wing after a certain DCUR quest) is always nice. I haven't enslaved her. Entirely. If she wants to eat my character's food, and sleep in her beds, then she has to eat my character's pussy. And sleep with her. She doesn't seem to mind.

No. No, it really doesn't. Skyrim tells you everyone is racist but no one is really racist. The closest you get to actual racism is a drunk asshat spouting insults in the slums that you get to beat up, strip naked, and rape leaving him to walk around naked for the rest of the game until he dies in a vampire attack and a few elves that in-game lore tells you that they think they are the master race but they never act on it beyond one or two rare random assassination encounters. If the game confronted racism, the furry players would be prevented from entering the cities via the city gates and the master race would act on how wonderful they are up to and including Thalmor rallies complete with the burning of Talos worshipers. e: Is Jim Sterling's wife actually Jim Sterling in drag?

BGS didn't want to deny players any options for their character race choice unlike in Oblivion where Khajiit were actually cut out a few minor quests and in Morrowind where females were cut out of one quest given by a female Khajiit to male characters only. The voice files are all there which a few mods re-enable. As for the other question: I wouldn't be the least bit surprised. Britain's most prominent comedians all have a drag persona or two. Sterling might just be literally married to his job.

The Daily Wire confirmed the existence of the disturbing “performance” but has chosen not to link to the exploitative footage." The parents were not charged, but they were investigated. However, I do not agree that Desmond should be doing that in a "bar" if indeed it was a bar and to let others pretend him to be a "stripper" is also uncalled for, the parents should have stepped in at that point, because it went from expression to exploitation fire quick. I've long ago learned to not dismiss social conservatives on principle and opt to observe whether the evidence they are presenting suggests something genuinely harmful in a particular social change which is occurring. They are like the brakes for an automobile while the socially liberal types are like the accelerator. If it weren't for them, sometimes we'd smack face first full speed into a wall or go hurtling over a cliff face. Desmond and his peers look to be the Western equivalent of Bacha bazi. The United States of America, Canada, the UK and all of the other First World Nations (not that I'm fond of the continual use of Cold war terminology) tend to throw a fit whenever girls are even remotely 'sexualized' (even when they wear 'too much' make-up)so it seems more than a little strange that there are so many people championing child exotic dancers just because of their gender or the sexuality of the people lusting after them.
NitroHamlin Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 I was walking to the train station from the tram however I needed to use the toilet badly; so I looked around the tram station to find it, and when I did there were two doors to single toilet rooms, one female and one unisex. A little burned up by this I went to take a little look around the building just to find maintenance cabinets, no male restrooms. So I just stood out there waiting for the unisex toilet to be free, contemplating using the female toilet, but that idea was quickly thrown out when I noticed the security camera gawking at the doors. One unisex toilet and one female toilet, where's the equality?

NitroHamlin Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 I really hate how forgetful I can be at times. I mostly forget what day it is today, and the only way I remember the day is because I have a shower every second day. I also get that thing when you walk into a room and forget why you went there quite often.

You don't even have to open the console up, you just download a tool, plug the consoles USB plug into your PC and start uploading games. The things are little more than a simple Linux based computer with an emulator installed and a pretty menu. I too was greatly disappointed with what they offered in their vanilla setup. The emulator the NES version uses doesn't even get the sound 100% accurate (a bunch of the hit sound effects in Double Dragon 2 come out inaccurate for example). But now I have about 300+ games installed on the one my roommate bought. He was about to return it before I expanded its library for him?

They're just overpriced emulators with licensed ROMs. If Nintendo, Sega, and whatnot want to make real money, they should translate the games that got released in Japan but not in the West.

Put a low-end Linux computer in a shell shaped like classic console along with a similarly inspired usb gamepad. Upload an emulator and tiny handfull of roms into it with an admittedly very nice, highly user friendly menu. Profit. Sony was so lazy didn't even bother developing an in-house emulator or even adapting the PAL based roms they chose to work properly on North American 60htz electronics. 34 minutes ago, Ernest Lemmingway said: If Nintendo, Sega, and whatnot want to make real money, they should translate the games that got released in Japan but not in the West.

I suppose Nintendo was nice enough to package Star Fox 2 into the SNES mini, a game that was never officially released (it was completed but shelved in favor of waiting to release Star Fox 64). They could have at least released some of the Famicom Disk System or Konami VRC chip based games from the NES era, since they added features only the Famicom hardware originally supported (like the Japanese version of Castlevania 3's enhanced soundtrack). The PC-Engine is a fun system, my favorites on it are Rondo of Blood and the Legendary Axe games.

Hudson was swallowed up by Konami (at least their gaming IPs were)so if anyone is going to release a new TurboExpress with a bunch of emulated titles (possibly on a high capacity HuCard), it would be Konami.

ToJKa Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Ah, so Phoenix Point was sold out for Epic Store (timed) exclusivity as well, pissing off most of their backers while doing so Oh well, i wasn't a backer, and i am patient.

Ernest Lemmingway Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 It seems that Steam is planning to give in to publisher pressure regarding user reviews. They haven't done so just yet but they've already garnered a lot of backlash since this is exactly the straw that broke the camel's back with the Epic Store. Their reasons are weak and the whole affair reminds me of their paid mods scam back in '15 in that gamers need to collectivize again to stop this. ? I'm one of the first to admit that Steam isn't perfect. Competition would be good for them. But Epic isn't really competition and they're not helping themselves by sinking to Epic's level. If they do go through with this, I'll switch to GOG and never go back. It's not like there are any more games I want to buy off Steam now that RE2 Remake is out. Mouthy young punks who think schooling is superior to real world experience. My last employers folded because they didn't update their computers in over ten years. Those of us in IT were just told to keep it going no matter how faulty our fixes and workarounds were, never once receiving any funding to get current training or even time off for such when we offered to pay for it ourselves. So my skills are nearly a decade out of date. That's the very reason my current employer did hire me; they've got a legacy system they're trying to upgrade from and none of the young bucks they hired know how to handle Windows XP or hardware that dates before the early Twenty-teens. So it really irritates me when they act superior just because they know more about current hardware and software than I do. Especially when they turn right around and ask me to help them with a problem with the very same outdated tech they just got finished putting down. 1 hour ago, ToJKa said: Ah, so Phoenix Point was sold out for Epic Store (timed) exclusivity as well, pissing off most of their backers while doing so Oh well, i wasn't a backer, and i am patient.

It also makes me ask what Epic is doing? They paid Snapshot $2.5 million for that exclusivity. To simply break even, PP will need to earn $20,833,833.34 at 12% of the sales. That's 347,223 sales roughly if the game goes for $60, more if the price drops at any time before they earn that money back. Those aren't implausible sales figures but it really begs the question why Epic would lay out so much money for a year of exclusivity? Are they that desperate or arrogant?

Risky business tactic, but it may work. Time will tell.
joemonco Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 It's stupid to be loyal to a store. Valve, Epic, Microsoft, Apple, and CD Projekt don't give a flying fuck about you. Buy from the store that has the lowest price and fuck everyone that tells you differently. But use a condom, because that's how you get herpes.
