I was like:

"Whats new on Dee Tee Eff?"

and then I had a sad.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Lost power at our house at 2:30 am. Was wide awake since then.  Nothing like going to work unshowered.

I assume this is heating related, because I can't think of any other way these things are related.

Everything related. No water because no power for the water pump, no heat, no fun.

You need power for your water? This concept is foreign to me.

I don't know what you're talking about. I couldn't even name a fucking Rush song.

But I may have been quoting THE TWILIGHT ZONE, you know, the show that predates anything Rush ever shat out. :biggrin:

There are very few homes here that use well water. The filtration systems on the houses which use it is top notch. I've seen unfiltered well water and it's not pretty.   :lol

You should get a backup generator for instances like this. I'm sure Walmart has them cheap and don't you get a employee discount?

I have one but why bother setting it up for a few hours.  The electric company says it will be back up around 10 am.  Plus, I do not work for Wal Mart even though I work in their Distribution center.

Yup.  We are a contracted company that sort through all the empty pallets for Wal Mart by quality and we also bale cardboard and other little ditties for them.  They service 111 Wal Mart stores all over New England and a little of New York.

We on average, sort about 260,000 pallets and boxes a month.

Our neighborhood is on a community well.  I guess it works differently than your well, king, because we still have water even if we lose power.

We also have a gas heater in the basement, so we also still have heat if we lose power.  Which has come in handy on more than one occasion during winter.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I ordered an old XBOX 360 Kinect the other day online for $40 which arrived today. I wanted to try it out for some motion capture. My first attempt turned out alright considering, but it kinda looked like a senior citizen with Parkinson's trying to dance. :lol Then I tried the automatic jitter removal, and now it looks awesome.

But for the time and cost invested so far, I'm very happy with the potential of this.

Bro bought me an early Xmas present.

Borderlands : The Handsome Collection for PS4.

Basically Borderlands 2 and the Pre-Sequel and all the DLC for both on one disc.  :) :biggrin:

Can't wait to play "3". I played 2 to death on the iMac. Just got to download the 11GB update  :facepalm:

Patching stuff never happened before online gaming. Games just worked out of the box.


It's like in Destiny. There was one cave where monsters would frequently re-spawn and leave all sorts of goodies. SO of course that got "fixed"  ::)

And there was one boss where you could hide in one spot and fire away and not get harmed. WE'LL PATCH THAT...

NO FUN ALLOWED.

It also gives publishers an excuse to rush games out and patch it so it works later. A lot of big games have had nasty bugs out of the box that they had to patch immediately.

I'm a casual gamer at best these days though, so it doesn't affect me. I just got an XBOX 360 Kinect today, and I never even intend to plug it into my actual XBOX 360. :lol

(just like everyone else who has a Kinect :neverusethis:)

Haha. My bro got a Kinect for his 360. It was a good idea and worked well but very limited use.

I'm a very traditional gamer. I like a joypad and that's about it.

I have like 0 interest in VR and barely play online games.

VR could be great once it's developed, although it's still in its infancy. So glad I have the money now for when the Oculus Rift or the Valve one comes out to mess around with (again, not going to be for gaming though).
The Kinect is a great piece of hardware, but I don't like such an imprecise method of input for gaming, same with the Wiimote. The Kinect is great for other uses though. I also prefer a gamepad for gaming.
