  1. I kind of lost interest in it after the second one and haven't followed it. I think I beat the second one in '05.
  2. Lenny is dead. Caboose murdered him. Packing in one day is pretty easy if you sort everything that you're packing. That way you spend less time wondering where you should put something. It's also fine to make more than one trip. Smaller items should be the first ones to go to your new place, and then the big items. Because. Sumatran Rhino, Florida Panther, and White Lions are some examples of super-rare animals. People think it's okay because it's a generally harmless form of practical joking. Startling someone can happen accidentally rather easily as well. Because they generally don't eat themselves. I have played Serious Sam, but didn't enjoy it much so I don't much pay attention to news concerning it. Just wasn't my kind of game.
  3. Most people are sensitive about their parents, especially so when it comes to their mothers. One of the reasons for this is because most mothers are charged with the upbringing of the children.
  4. 1. Between 160 and 200 lbs, assuming it wasn't hollow. Maybe around 20 lbs if it were hollow. 2. Up to 10000 feet, and up to 100 miles per hour. 3. Coca Cola Classic, Diet Coke, and Pepsi. 4. Well, spiders aren't poisonous, they're venomous. The most venomous spider is the male Sydney funnel-web spider, and it actually holds the world record for it. 5. Original. 6. Because people are annoying and use broken metaphors and similes to describe things. Also because he had created several rudimentary designs for several objects that couldn't be created at the time because engineering had not yet caught up to the theoretical science behind the designs. 7. Yellow is the most noticeable color every time of day. 8. Several amphibians can, but the most notable is the lungfish. 9. Well sure, O2 trapped underwater can be breathed by anything with lungs. If you meant IN the water, though, then not without severe genetic manipulation on our part. We are close to scuba gear that can do it though. Because you don't find it interesting. 'Boring' is completely relative to the individual experiencing it, after all.
  5. Ah, see, you didn't make it clear that you were speaking of time travel rather than the way that time actually works. What exactly would prevent you from travelling to the past in your scenario? Because if you could only travel to the future then you wouldn't be able to travel back to the present, obviously.
  6. You have to be dead to be frozen lol so 100%. The water therapy thing in the DBZ universe doesn't really exist in ours because it's considered pointless by many medical professionals. So here's the pros and cons Pro: It would keep a patient from smashing themselves on the bed during a seizure. Con: They could still hit the glass and even pull the breathing tubes out, drowning themselves. Pro: Ointments would be easier to apply. Con: You can't really control where the ointment goes. Pro: A patient would be unconscious for the majority of the treatment so they suffer less. Con: They can't tell you how they hurt if they're not conscious, and it'll be far easier to make fatal clerical errors.
  7. Not a question lol and also incorrect. The present is defined as "existing or occurring now". This means that no matter what, right now is always the present. The past is "gone by in time", which means that literally .00000000000000000001 second ago is the past. If it isn't in this exact moment in time, it's either in the past or in the future. The future is "at a later time", which means that literally .000000000000000000001 second from now is the future. These concepts are pretty simple. Past, future, and present are completely relative to every individual. If you were to travel through time to year 1970, then you would still be in the present (relative to you and everyone existing around you at that moment). Same if you were to travel to year 100070. You cannot 'be' in the future or the past relative to yourself, because every time you move throughout time you are in your own present.
  8. 1. Azaxx - 548 Days 2 hours 2. GermanShepherdD - 505 Days 19 hours 3. Twam - 474 Days 12 hours 4. Drizzy_Dan - 405 Days 16 hours 5. RedStarRocket91 - 379 Days 7 hours Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic on PC with mods. xD
  9. Cats love boxes for several possible reasons. Cats are ambush predators, and there's hardly a better hiding place than a box. Boxes are also pretty enclosed, which offers cats a sense of security. Tight spaces are also usually pretty warm, which is something cats love.
  10. 1. There's no way to know, because it would be around a 100-way tie. At any given time the English language contains words that are 'obsolete', which means that what these words were once used to describe are no longer used commonly enough for people to even use the words. 2. The "Left Luggage" emoji. 3. Yeah, using a tool called a chisel. 4. There currently isn't a way to know for sure. 5. Depends on the type of river dolphin, but overall between 18 and 30 years. 6. Somewhere around 1000 unique colors and 4000 unique color patterns. The maximum amount of different colors and shades of frogs that we can distinguish, interestingly enough, is 10000000.
  11. Basically whoever you made plans with first has the entitlement of your time, unless the other person wants to do something far more awesome (like take you on an all expenses paid vacation to 2045's Mars Base). Example: You and your new friend plan to go see Deadpool. Your old friend wants to go see a rom-com on the same day, an hour after you already made the plans with your new friend. Unless you REALLY want to go see the rom-com, you are obligated to honor your original agreement with your new friend. If your old friend doesn't wanna do what you guys are doing, that's your friend's problem. If you feel like you're being a jerk, then offer to make plans with your old friend to do something at a later date.
  12. At first look it's a pretty basic game, but it has plenty of nuance. I mean I give it like a 6-7 out of 10 due to the logical leaps (i.e. a cow forcing itself on you as your over-concerned paternal figure after just seconds of meeting you). These logical leaps kind of killed the 'tear jerker' moments in the game for me. Anyways, yeah the annoying dog really is annoying, and not just to the protagonist.
  13. Lionhead studios closing doesn't come as a surprise to me. They aren't known for meeting deadlines, and they aren't known for good business decisions either. For instance, they released Fable Anniversary for the Xbox 360 a full year after the Xbox One was released without porting it to Xbox One and without backwards compatibility being a thing at the time. That combined with them constantly pushing back deadlines and having a reputation for reworking games in the later stages of development means that it actually comes as a surprise that Microsoft didn't shut them down earlier. I loved the Fable series, and was intending on playing Fable Legends (even though it didn't appeal to me very much), but I understand the cancellation and Lionhead's potential shutdown.

  15. Mainly because ads don't play on mobile devices the same way that they do on non-mobile devices. This means that channels do not make nearly as much money per view on mobile as they do on non-mobile. As a result of this, some channels have opted to make it to where you can ONLY view their videos on non-mobile devices. You can't really blame them either, because this is their livelihood we're talking about. And there is a drastic difference between mobile and non-mobile revenue. Say there are two channels, and one (channel A) makes videos that were only viewed on non-mobile devices and the other (channel makes videos that were only viewed on mobile devices. If both channels got the same amount of views on each video, and channel A was paid $1000, channel B could make as little as $300 for the same amount of work. The blame lies with the fights between M$ and Google, Youtube's copyright system, and the different types of Youtube Apps.
  16. I can tell you a story, but I will not tell you a story
  17. Some senpais notice. Others do not. And that's not a question. No, doe is. Yes. A name, sure, but not a word used to describe yourself (i.e. me). No, far is. No, that's sew. It can be. No, that's tea. Only if you're trying to make puns out of solfege. In which case it's far more effective verbally rather than written.
  18. I have a wife, so I have no need for a waifu lol
  19. Hey there everyone! We've got someone returning to the News Group and that someone is He's able to devote more time to the site and to his duties as staff, so join me in giving him a warm welcome back!
  20. It's a definite improvement over the Xbox 360 in pretty much every way imaginable. It's also the most durable piece of electronic equipment I've had to date. The thing survived at least 7 ounces of tea poured directly into it's top vent without any sign of damage at all. The apps are pretty easy to access and download (even though some of the app devs suck), the games play well (except for the ones where the devs suck), and I like the controller way better than a PS controller. I have no opinion about H5 WF because I haven't had a chance to play it yet lol Sounds fun though. By typing a lowercase D It's a little depressing that I'm older than Pokemon by over half a decade and it's already two decades old. Also a testament to exactly how much you can milk an IP just by adding some new crap now and then.
  21. I don't believe travelling to the past is possible, but travelling to and from the future might be. Even if travelling to the past WERE possible, it would be massively irresponsible to do so. Even if there were a chance to kill Hitler, for instance, there's a possibility that doing so would lead to an even greater atrocity than the holocaust. So it's likely that if time travel is invented, it would be used to go to the future and bring knowledge back to the 'present'. Over there. Everything.
  22. Unfortunately if we did that then we wouldn't get any AAA game titles. Publishers are quite important in the video game industry, as they are the ones who pay the developers for their work. Otherwise, if a dev made one bad title their company would run the risk of going under. Instead, the publisher takes this risk for the dev and then takes a chunk of the profits for their troubles. Yeah, publishers can be a pain, but they serve a purpose. Well, I wish them luck, but I'm not going to be on THAT maiden voyage that's for sure. I know lol and pacifists, by nature, have to be at least a little optimistic. To believe that you can live without being violent you also have to believe that you can convince others to not be violent to you.
  23. Wrapping it in dry towels may work, but it's too large for putting it into rice to work and placing it on a heater would be a very bad idea. It might actually dry faster out of the towels, because of evaporation.
  24. Fixing Xbox One Water Damage Have you spilled liquid onto your Xbox One and need a quick guide on how to deal with it? Well you're in luck. Things to understand Most electronics are not built to withstand contact with water. Water causes short circuits, power surges, and can destroy the magnesium which is in most machines. This is also why most warranties don't cover water damage, including the warranty for Xbox One. There is a very good chance that if your console has come into contact with water you will need to replace it at full price. What to do 1. Power down your Xbone if it didn't shut off automatically. 2. Unplug ALL cords connected to it. Disconnect the power cord from your outlet and the power supply box (this is to reset the power supply, in case it surged). 3. Grab a towel and dry it off as much as you can. Try to drain the water through the same vent it entered in, if possible. 4. Allow your Xbox One to completely dry, keeping it unplugged. A minimum of 8 hours is suggested, but longer than that won't hurt. 5. When you are confident that the console is dry, plug your cables back in and try to turn it on. If the console powers up but shuts itself off before completely booting up, unplug it again and wait longer. If it continues doing this or simply doesn't power on at all after 48 hours, see below. It didn't work You have two options at this point. You can either purchase another console or contact Xbox Support via this link. At the main support page, navigate to the bottom of the page and click 'Contact Us'. Fill out the proper forms and explain what happened to the customer service agent. There is no point in lying about what happened, the console has liquid contact indicators that the repair center will check. If you are truthful and polite the agent may be able to cut you a break. It's pretty much a guarantee that you'll have to pay something to get your console fixed/replaced, but if there's a way to pay less than the full price of the console the customer service agent will help you find it.
