not bad, but not a patch on the original

Funny thing about that guy is he has what looks like a Bastro patch on his modern backpack. Back in the day DIY hardcore kids would put band patches on their backpacks. Bastro was a mathy "post-hardcore" band that came before the now famous band Tortoise, they also played in Gastro Del Sol with Jim O'Rourke who is famous for his own solo career, playing in Sonic Youth, (dad rock band) Wilco and many others. So, this guy is a nerd but once upon a time before capturing his head on a pole - he was a cool nerd. OR maybe it's not a Bastro patch and I'm the only nerd, lol.

They can start with simple approaches and get progressively more difficult. We don't know if that was the first attempt.

For example, if they're determined enough it's simple enough to get your home ip address and target your router since the firmware's rarely updated. From there they have all unencrypted traffic on your network as well as metadata on your encrypted traffic. They can then target the main PC, particularly if it's not fully patched and not running additional security software, and so on.

It's all about how much effort they want to put into the attack. Try the simple stuff first, and if it's worth it you can get more and more complex.

I'm no expert but I am an interested bystander. I even read Bruce Schneier's blog, so I'm all, like, leet and shit

Modern gamers dont know that the things they pay for now,used to be part of the game,,extra maps, characters (mortal kombat) etc. DLC and patch support ,was a given.
All the things gamers now pay for used to be the game, earn extra characters,costumes,skins, maps used to be released, free,,regularly,,,as a support service for the game. Compare half life or half life 2 to any COD game.

meh not a patch on Dschinghis Khan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzmI3vAIhbE

It's actually pretty common in Russia.
They rarely sand/salt their streets and black-ice patches like this are very common.

Maybe i'm completely wrong, but i thought he was pretty average this year. It felt a little like he'd bought into his own hype and instead of having the goal to be funny, he had the goal to be abrasive or harsh. I'm not saying he wasn't funny, but he wasn't a patch on the last two. Less about wit this time and more about 'rudeness'.

In the past few years i've been really worried that he's losing it. Life's Too Short was cringeworthy, Derek was the Karl Pilkington show and his standup was mostly from Karl too. Maybe i'm over exposed.

For vaporware...it's amazingly....existant

It's funny to watch Star Citizen truther trolls claim it doesn't exist when there are hundreds of thousands of people who have played it and the numerous livestreams out there on youtube.

An earlier version is on my computer that I can play right now.

But yeah, keep pretending that it's some grand conspiracy perpetrated by the mustache-twirling Chris Roberts....who would have gotten away with it too..if it weren't for that meddling Derek Smart.

I got my invite to the PTU earlier this week. Sadly, I'm not going to bother with it because 1. my video card is shitty and can barely load the game in it's current state and 2, they're constantly patching it and the patches are huge and I just don't want the hassle.

I'm curious what the next excuse will be when the game is released? @Jinx, @rancor can you enlighten me? Generally the just switch some other trivial gripe instead of admitting they were wrong.

No faith is required @OverLord. The game exists and is playable albeit still in pre-pre-pre-pre alpha. The only difference is that you never hear about regular games until they've had years of development already done. With Star Citizen, we've known about the development right from the very beginning, we've seen the game grow from the basic hangar module that was first released to what it is now...warts and all.

If it were a hoax, it's the most inefficient hoax of all time. Let's waste lots of money hiring A-list actors for the single player campaign that, were it a hoax, we could just run off with the money. And tell me..what is the supposed end game for this hoax? Is Chris and Sandi going to skip town with a suitcase full of money cackling maniacally as they twirl their mustaches? Any damsels tied to the train tracks I should know about that need rescuing?

Thanks oritteropo, bugs and all it was still awesome, and I didn't even have to re install Stalker. By now it's probably been patched up pretty good, too bad I'm too busy with Fallout 4.

What. No OR questions. Get the fuck out. Game update -- patch that rule right in there. If you play this game in my house, you're going to feel the burn of house rules: No or questions, and 10 second turns. That shit is like hardcore Guess Who.

"The reason behind the phenomena isn’t very mystical. The movement is actually caused by root systems just barely underneath the soil. When a tree sways in high wind, it also moves the land around it."

“As I entered a patch of trees spared from clear cutting, I noticed the ground moving,” Brian Nuttall, who uploaded the video, wrote in a Facebook post. “I believe the larger trees are doomed to blow down but are currently spared, the smaller trees around them help hold each other up, as the wind pushes the trees into one another.”

From what ive found on the internets, seems the woods had been clear cut up to these trees, and without their protection, the winds, wreak havoc, uplifting the root system which grew more shallow, as (i assume)they never had to anchor themselves any deeper. Anyway thats what i took from the few things i could find on this video. Would love to hear anything else others might know about this.

still pretty beta, IMHO.

There's a day 0 patch (firmware update) for the controller, which you have to apply from the host PC before it can even pair with the Steam Link.
