I must have got the crazy science ones while you got the crazy home ec - worst we did in home ec was accidentally turn the whipped cream into butter… oh, and made a rum (flavoured) and rasin ice cream.

Did you also have the group that had competition to see who could hold hot glue the longest, wacked eachother with metal rulers held over bunsen burners, and snorted citric acid when you made sherbert?

I had some of those in my school too…

Did half the class also make tazers after learning what a capacitor does, which wasn’t three best thing to know with wooden desks…

Yup. Was told clearly at the start to not plug it in to the wall sockets located just underneath us.

I find it interesting more than anything else.

In high school electronics we also used a tesla coil (that can kill you if you touch the wrong place) so they disconnected the mains cord so it had to be rewired prior to use to keep us safer.

They taught us how to wire plugs the following week…

We were taught that at high school…

We started with it.

I remember when Gears came out - it was made as a playable movie, and they did it well because it had a story line with characters we were invested in. Character deaths sucked, it was engaging, and it was unpredictable but comfortable.

Nothing wrong with the movie format, but you’ve got to tell the story.

Great, new game to try. Love me some quality time sinks.

Fully agree on graphics- I want to enjoy a game, graphics are only a component of that, and its not necessarily hyper realistic.

Im asking because I want to know why you don’t go at it alone?

Never said capitalism is good.

What job do you have?

No, profits are the difference between what a person is willing to accept to do a job, and what someone is willing to pay for their production less the cost to make it.

Profit isn’t theft. If you want the full value of your work produce the good or service yourself. If you can’t, pay someone to do the things you can’t. Oh look, business.

Are certain players taking a ridiculous profit- yes. Are people suffering because of it - yes. Could it be done better - absolutely. But just because you don’t like something it doesn’t make it theft.

Snow storm v nice autumn afternoon?

Damn…

Can we have it in non-freedom units, il even take a clothing layer comparison is the metric systemis spawn of Satan. Is this snow - t shirt weather?

Sitting here in a beautiful sunny day, people can be forgiven for thinking its not a big deal.

Until you realise how much energy it takes to raise the temperature of the ocean and land by 1.5. And then that all that energy goes into every weather event forever until we reverse it.

Im always up for some older classics

Been playing some Battlefield 1942… legally… and Battlefield 2 has multiple options for playing actually legally.

I miss the era where it was fun, rather than min/max games

Can I be tired of how relevant it still is?

Some one needs to play some crusader kings or EU4
