What jobs do you think remorseful and rehabilitated rapists should be allowed to have?

Supreme Court justice.

A guy I worked with son just gave his two weeks yesterday. Apparently people have seen the writing on the wall and have been leaving the company for a while.

So, it's using Minion? Pretty sure that was the one I was using before I left. Did I get that right?

No it was all manual there were two folders I copy pasted into the interface folder and that was it. Shestakui I think it's called

For those playing this now, where are you installing your addons these days. I just decided to play it again for a few months (and see if it latches me into staying) but I've been antsy for any game right now, so may as well go back to one I always keep going back to. But realizing I'm going to need mods, so what mod control are you using these days?

I downloaded a compilation off of wowinterface.com 

I like my Logitech G910

How much does it cost to unlock all of the living world story stuff if you haven't played any of that so far in GW 2?

I have no idea.  I think it was 200gems/episode.  Last time I bought one a few years ago it cost me 100g or so if i remember right.

you can tho, or maybe it is an add-on. Add-on's are a must

Can you do it from anywhere in the world?  In GW2 you can right click the bag select deposit materials and no matter where you are they go to your material storage in your bank.

I boosted my NE priest to 110 on Cenarius.  Part of me is regretting buying the xpac.  The game feels clunky and slow, the cast time on mounts irritates me more than I thought it would, the lack of an option to deposit all the materials in your bag into the bank, having to go to a mail box to get mail, having to go to the auction house to browse items, the new races locked behind reputation grinds.  The game just feels old and shitty.  I'll probably level the priest to max and maybe on of my other toons, they are all level 85 as cata was the last xpac I bought.  Another thing why the hell do I have to go to a transmog to hide my cape, shoulders, or head piece now?

I quit gw2 for almost 2 years came back and after a 10 min review was caught up and ready to go.  Coming back to wow on the other hand feels like a chore starting with fixing the shit default UI.

This. Game looks hella rad, but permadeath and resets aren't going to do it for me. 

The first few sting, especially if you get a nice colorless weapon, but once you come to the realization that everything is transient and ultimately meaningless the game is a blast.

Sometimes it's fun to see how far you can get with shit weapons. 

Finally don't  creep like you are playing Souls run and gun and use skills on cd.

I like the people I work with.  If there is someone I find that I don't like I don't work with them anymore.

The formula is simple.

 

Man vs. machine > man + machine vs. machine

Are there implied parenthesis here?

I enjoy my job.  The are bad days but overall it's an enjoyable job.  If I win the lotto I wouldn't quit working I'd scale up hire more people to do the parts I don't like and focus on the rest of the job.

It's an off day.  You can see why I lost my license though.

Once again a woman has to give her job up for a man.

I figured you were a terrible person I just wanted to confirm.

I really wish they would have not used any of the OT characters at all for this one except Luke as a ghost (and have the trilogy start with Ben having already killed Luke as his moment of betrayal a few years before).

 

The new trilogy is waaaay too tied to the past to have its own interesting story. I blame JJ.

Both of the new films have been complete recycles of the OT  I just watched the OT a few weeks ago for the first time since I had it on VHS in the 90's and then TLJ when it came out on Netflix and the amount of recycling is glaring.  I notices some when I saw it in theaters but all 4 movies fresh it really stuck out.

I think saying "you still have Leia" regardless of how they handle it is a stupid thing to say short of CGing her character. Period. 

Are you a star wars fan?

edit- Also given the "burn the past" theme of the last movie, and like the OT the old characters dying to make room for the new generation, can the any of the deaths of the old characters have dramatic weight given that it's expected?

Right, they'll kill her off offscreen, likely between films during a time jump or at the very start of the film. So how is it they "have" Leia for Episode IX?

I'm not getting what's so hard to follow here.

Ort states they need someone to kill off.

I reply with they have already have Leia [to kill off].

Joke post?

No, they have to kill her off unless they are going to CGI her.

In that case, a CEO that is aware of the "political" environment in which this situation occurred as the ArenaNet CEO appears to be should: (a) make a statement similar to the one that was put out regarding the expectations of community interaction and that the company will conduct an internal assessment before making a decision, (b) initiate a "cooling off" period to speak with the parties involved in order to make an informed decision that does not have the appearance of giving in to the braying mob, and (c) execute that action accordingly. 

 

All of that could easily be accomplished by the beginning of this week at the latest and would be seen as a circumspect, reasonable course of action that provides enough separation from the immediacy of the inferno.

She wasn't going to go along with anything other than Anet taking her side.  What this came down to was who was more valuable to the company her or the customers.

She also seems to have a history of behaving like this and even in the comments when this whole thing blew up someone complained about her behavior at e3 or some convention and how she was rude.

Anet wants to be known as a progressive company so the hired Price, given her history I'm guessing that she turned out to be a bigger headache than she was worth and they took the opportunity to shit can her.  Fries firing was just to blunt calls of sexism, which doesn't seemed to have worked, and I genuinely feel bad for that guy.  His twitter comments since being fired have shown him to be a decent person.

The need someone to kill off, right?

They already have Leia.

I got burned out on gw2 so I downloaded warframe today.

He wasn't just a customer. He is an anet partner, someone who promotes their game on youtube.

I wonder if they fired him to cut off any "double standard" complaints.
