I think I figured out what kind it is as well. Of course, I'm no birdwatcher and I couldn't get very close without scaring it off, but I think it's a Nuttall's Woodpecker. And at least there aren't many power lines in this part of town :P

GOG is having a free game for a day thing again.
I have the disc already, but it's awesome that they're doing this :D
Get it anyway, backups are backups.
It says I need an "account". That doesn't include a Steam/Desura like program, does it?

Is marijuana legal wherever Notch lives? That's the first thing that comes to mind when I see that second pic, and it probably looks crazier in motion :P

So, tell me, Truean - You have a client come in, who wears one of these, recording 24/7.

The police have accused him of a certain crime at a certain time in a certain place.

You have access to this recording that shows he wasn't even there.

Is this, in your mind, a bad thing? Is this... no helpful to you for some reason? Is this evidence in some way weaker than it appears?
You are aware that evidence can be declared inadmissible and it's very existence kept from the jurors, correct?


Why is it that every "progressive" thread I ever see invariably turns into a "omg guvmint out to GET me" thread? You're freaking out about a HEAD-MOUNTED iPHONE, people! Surely there's a charity running or something you can link to instead?

Truean, right now you're just a couple steps above "frothing-mouth tinfoil-wearing homeless man" paranoid on my scale. This is not a good thing, and pulling a worst-case scenario out of something that is barely even a prototype, is in no way mandatory, and has the same functions as the smart phone in my pocket does not an argument make.

Shit, I can pull worst-case scenarios out of eating bran flakes for breakfast. Doesn't stop me from eating them, and it doesn't mean that I should freak out about them.

As long as they keep the loot system (and expand it, of course) I'll probably get this. Ads for the original Borderlands claimed something around 13 billion unique guns. They weren't exaggerating much :P

The humor and story (despite the bizarre ending) were nice as well.

We've got a woodpecker banging away on the cherry tree in our backyard. I didn't even know they lived around here, never seen one before O_o

I feel all jizzy now :)))))))))))))
Yes yes, fine fine Claptrap, but do you have multiple characters? Online isn't much fun if everyone's the same muscled bearded guy that's in most of the media :-\

Fake edit after looking at website: You do! Yes!

Original game had sorta-plot missions. Like, you had to capture certain aliens alive in order to reach the end of the game. If you didn't know that or weren't focusing on live capture, you might be stuck for a long time just fighting more and more.

Can't you guys start a separate "hate on Notch/Minecraft" thread? I want information on this new project, not to read rehashed arguments from all sides of some other issue :P
There is no information. This is literally all there is to it.
But every time someone posts "notch sux lolzors" and someone responds "no u roflmao", this thread pops up in my unread posts list and I get all excited :P

Besides, if this little spat isn't nipped in the bud now, do you really think it'll stop once there actually is information and screenies and stuff?

Well, good news! Yesterday I saw a pic of a Basic compiler written for the architecture. I even think it was on Notch's twitter.

If you look on reddit (I feel dirty now) there are already some interpreters/compilers for the architecture out there.

EDIT:
Aaaaand just found an unofficial FAQ about the game, compiling all his tweets into a more readable form of text http://0x10.cc/
Also: Sceenshot! It looks frighteningly similar to Noctis. Just with a higher screen resolution.
Screenshot? Where?! Checking official site, fan site you linked, Notch's Twitter...not seeing it :(

Ships are stationary when building jump gates, and use no fuel. I speak from experience, having fleets of constructors moving from system to system for several years in between fuel stops.
