Ever see one of those cartoons where the characters are starving and everything they see that moves looks like dancing chicken legs and whatnot? That kinda happens after you go without food for almost a week.

Did you at least cook the little bastard?
Well, yeah. I've cooked using both a hot radiator on a 1988 Chevy Bronco II, and a trashcan grill fueled with near frozen deadwood from the side of the road and newspaper.

Why would you eat the cat

(Gotta say, though, real cat tastes like month old bologna, if it was unspiced.)
How do you know this

I've eaten cat. I was homeless for a month during a really harsh winter in upstate New York. Weren't you listening?

Edit: Or do you mean the bologna thing? I know how bologna is made, and what it's made of, and how it looks and smells after a month in the fridge (failing that, the deli case. I've worked some really lousy jobs.)

I was just trying to talk about food. Then people started yelling. It was like the new Iron Chef, but in all caps, and there was no Alton Brown, and the secret ingredient was roadkill.
I feel tempted to sig this somewhat.

Feel free. I love being sigged. ^_^
I just did quote it.

Too bad I couldn't keep the other two quotes, oh well.

That makes me sad, that you had to lose those. That sucks. I hope the new sig brings you plenty of "wtf?"s, though.

You can put your stuff back, I will not take it.
You LIE! Everyone always takes the tallow I make with that stuff! Then they make +Cat Tallow Biscuits+ and I never get to eat them! I need the biscuits! They go so well with rock nuts and Dwarven ale. It'd make a perfect tea party for the baron when he arrives.

Try searching for Medium Temperature and Medium Rainfall
Agreed. That'll keep you away from both deserts and taiga/glaciers.

I concur, this is all Acanthus117's fault.

You could always claim a bit of land and water, wall off all the edges and staunchly protect the water from weird creatures. Or, if any show up, Runesmith 'em dead. I love that program. ^_^

Oh man that is so cool.
It's cool that I was a hobo, or that everyone's yelling? Being a hobo is only cool if you get to hop trains, which I did not. I slept in a truck in -40F weather, and ate bits of...unsavory animals that I cooked on the radiator.

DF General Discussion / Re: The CPU - FPS test
« on: July 26, 2010, 01:22:29 am »
So, I noticed that none of you had crappy computers, so I took it upon myself to test this save out on my old ass Compaq Presario (because that's the only computer I have.) SR1503WM (that's right, I bought it at walmart. You may all point and laugh now, and I will cry.)

CPU: Intel Celeron D @ 2.93 Ghz
RAM: 1.5 GB (I forget what kind. I believe it's Corsair, but I'm just not sure.)
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT by Sparkle

FPS: A steady 12, until the 30 second mark, when it inexplicably dropped to 8 for three seconds, and then jumped right back up to 12.

Conclusion: Don't designate a boatload of stuff all at once on a six year old computer.

I don't know how either-

Scratch that, I only know how Realmfighter looks like.

(wow, I didn't see that, MaximumZero. Sorry.)

(I meant stray cats and dogs, but w/e)
They were. I was homeless for about a month close to five years ago. I lived out of a truck, but still. Cat tastes terrible. Also, word of advice. If you ever get the chance to eat dog, don't, unless you're used to it. Small dog meat smells and tastes slightly of mint, but will give you horrible diarrhea and cramps for days.

Dig to the caverns! Quickly. There you will find both replenishing wood and probably lots of water.

I don't see any reason to keep the old versions up if the new versions work with the old DF.
