One does not simply make a casual MOBA game. That's just straight up impossible. At least none of the MOBAs that I tried were like this.

One map with one lane, one hero type, one gear tree, auto-attack when in range, no respawn delay or penalty.

Infinity Blade 3 is pretty fun, which makes it worse when it crashes constantly and takes forever to start up. This is what you get for not optimizing your game for the system, Chair.

What I hate the most about Windows 8 is the whole UEFI bullshit. You cannot disable UEFI without removing Windows 8, and UEFI makes it hell to partition the hard disk in order to have a functional Ubuntu partition.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

You first mistake was hoping that Windows would be useful to you.

Not casual enough. You can still gain advantage by moving together in one singe hero-blob.

Yeah teamwork is OP. Better make it a coop game vs. shabby AI only. Everyone wins! (Except poor Computer)

Honestly, I'd be pretty down with some more hero survival ripoffs to go with the AoS ripoffs. I liked me some Enfos, be nice to see what someone could do with something less crippled more modern than the WC3 engine. Fairly sure they've got some FPS stuff like that, actually, but I do like me that top-down(ish) pseudo-RTS.

Not that they'd actually do anything beyond what WC3 was capable of, if the stand alone AoS riffs have been any indication, of course. Closest I've seen to actual innovation beyond what the WC3 custom maps managed has been Awesomenauts, I think, and that only because it's sidescrolling instead of top down.

S'like... c'mon, people. You've had over a decade now. You can do this! You can actually beat a hobbyist created custom scenario made for a turn of the century game engine! Right? ... right?

So, my co-residents seem to be trying to screw me over and arrange a congress-and-courses calendar from which I'm excluded.

So, my wife recently got a name change and we got most things updated without a hitch.

Except the health insurance.

We've called them and argued with them ~4 times now. Last time they even said to us that the name was updated. Today we go to the pharmacy and they're like "nope, the insurance still has her under her old name, and since the prescription is written out to the new name, we can't do squat."

RAAAAAGE

(the pharmacist was really nice and helpful though and should probably get a raise)

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Yeah, I would have advised you to wait for a period in which name usage is not often needed to do that, or just ignore it altogether. Name changing is notoriously hard to work through.

Apparently Thunderbird is the only application in the world that refuses to offer any way to change the display of timestamps, instead relying on the system's locale info. Which means I'd have to write a custom variant of the en_US.UTF-8 locale, just for LC_TIME.

All because those idiots can't make a zarking [ ] Display in 24-hour format option.

I'm tempted to file a bug report for this feature, just to be belligerent.

EDIT: I just found an add-on that's almost perfect (would prefer if Today's emails didn't have the date). That shows the one thing I don't like about Thunderbird: not-at-all-unreasonable features (change date format, minimize to tray) are left out in favor of "Eh, there'll be an add-on that does it. What's the big deal?".

My father is trying to use me to make political hay against my mother.  They're married.  They've been married for 26 years.  He should know better than this.

"This is my world!  I'm caught between my wife and my crazy sister!"

What, because my mom asks him to defend her instead of just letting the sister steamroll her?  You're asking me to take your side?  No dad, I don't need you that bad that I'll be immoral in order to ~further our relationship~.  You talk to my mom alone.  She's not that scary.

Was a bit rude.

We did; we've given them four full months

Somebody spraypainted graffiti across the back of the library. I want to beat the living hell out of whoever did that.

Fortunately, the library does have security cameras, and hopefully one of them was pointed at that spot, or at least near enough to identify them.
