Laptops are not 24/7 in the first place
My much-abused Acer Aspire 5685 would beg to differ. If it could, it'd also beg for me to give it a rest every once in a while.

Well, the last time I left a laptop on all night while I was asleep, the power port died a few days later. Not the best thing to happen twice.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

If it has an easily replaceable heatsink fan then it's not an issue. Otherwise you are just quickening the end of its lifespan.

Oh hey new update.

Time to actually use the SB mod manager instead of just not messing with it.

My first impressions from Furious Koala:
  • Dungeons are much more widespread, plus there are a lot of new types of dungeons, like heavily guarded Apex Miniknog laboratories;
  • Villages and other non-hostile locations are harder to find. I've traversed several solar systems and still haven't seen any Floran, Apex or Avian settlements;
  • Swamp mini-bioms are very rare now, so I can't craft over 500 bandages like I used to;
  • Random generated beasts seem a bit tougher than in previous versions.

I just finished renting a 15 slot premium server starting at 3 months, so we can all be a family again.

Unfortunately, due to high demand the server has no been comissioned yet, and may not be up for a couple of days. When it is, I will post the address and such here. :)

Poke me with a msg and info and I'll update the first page.

Is the server in any of these areas? http://downdetector.com/status/att/map

Will do, and you guessed it; the server is located in LA.

Well, with the update, this works for me! :D
Now, just have to figure out how to do stuff at some point.

Funny, my impression is just the opposite. None of the ones I've encountered took more than 2-3 hits with the starter sword to kill, and nothing but a few special attacks did appreciable damage to me. :/

As monsters don't yet have proper names, their current attacks are always displayed above their health bars.

Please, let the next version have 360 degree directional melee... please. I'm so tired of spears sucking because they can only hit in two directions.

8-direction spears would be nice. Ooh! Spears that can have multiple swings per swing would be nice, running around like a star of death.

Well. If they get updated to have something else above their health bar... I'm subjugating their entire species just so I can make body slams their official name. >:(
