Mount & Blade Warband for 4 moneys. Weee!
Add in Fire & Sword expansion/sequel thing for 2 moneys if you're so inclined.
Link

'Tis a flash sale for the next seven or so hours.

Fire & Sword any good? I remember holding off on it a while back because people had a bunch of issues with it.
In my opinion, it would have been better if it stuck with a low-fantasy universe instead of trying to shoehorn in some historical stuff.

You mean Canadian-born son of a Cuban immigrant that fought for Castro? That Ted Cruz?

The GOP establishment will have a field day with that if Cruz actually looks like he could win the primary.
No no no, that sort of thing only matters if the candidate is black Democrat.

He was online earlier today, but yes. A PM would probably be best.

Also, keep in mind, this guy's son wants to be President of the United States.
So does the average grade schooler, but that doesn't mean it's going to happen.

From what little I've seen, Season 2 is even more intense :v

Only thing catching my eye is Walking Dead Season 2. It's not done yet, but 50% off is hard to argue against.

Every time I do a favor for anyone, it just happens to take an hour longer than they tell me it will.
Every once in a blue moon, a tiny minority of people have a small habit of underestimating stuff. But it is uncommon.

One of the biggest problems with DBZ is that after a certain point, Goku and Vegeta were pretty much the only ones capable of going toe-to-toe with the current villains while everyone else was relegated to either support duties or simply standing around on the sidelines. Of course, in an RPG no one wants to be useless or incapable of providing meaningful assistance. So how would you prevent that from happening?

You said "literally every single proper planet", so I tossed an extra Earth in there.

Without Earth the total diameters would be 237,561 miles, which would (barely) fit.

Read an article about how the ESO is blowing up part of a mountaintop to build the European Extremely Large Telescope.

Read the comments. Out of a hundred comments, only 3 complained about the cost, and only one about the fact that we made a mountain 30 meters shorter.

Faith In Humanity: +1
I would have posted to complain that they didn't come up with a better name than "European Extremely Large Telescope".

See, in America we would have called that "The Ronald Reagan Memorial Megascope of Liberty". And painted it red, white and blue.

Also doubles as a large laser cannon to shoot down things.
And there would be a bald eagle wildlife reserve nearby to gather their tears as coolant.

Do we really even need it to be in the sun? Just somewhere orbiting around the sun it's probably not going to do any harm either. Space is big yo.

They said the same about the oceans a few hundred years ago too.  Now we have a veritable continent made out of garbage. /hyperbole

Though space is at least a few million orders of magnitude bigger than the oceans...
literally every single proper planet (including pluto) togheter fits between just the earth and the moon though. you're going to need a lot of garbage to create even a decent-sized asteroid.

Including the gas giants?
Yes.
Distance between Earth and Moon: 238,900 miles.
Diameter of Mercury: 3,032 miles.
Diameter of Venus: 7,521 miles
Diameter of Earth: 7,918
Diameter of Mars: 4,212
Diameter of Jupiter: 86,881
Diameter of Saturn: 72,367
Diameter of Uranus: 31,518
Diameter of Neptune: 30,599
Diameter of Pluto: 1,430
Total: 245,479

So no, not quite.

OR you could quit being an ass, just tell us the name of the thing, and go update your actual games.
