What does that tell you about the other guy? :P
Didn't, uh. Didn't the whole text thing say when the antichrist comes along the critter's going to do better by folks on Earth than christ did, and make everything basically utopian and grand until the end of times come and YWHW shits fire on everything? Coulda' sworn that was the gist of it. Pretty sure the antichrist would get my vote, considering it would be peace + prosperity vs fire and horrific monstrosities from the heavens. Soul might be damned, but I could definitely spare a soul or two if it meant no more starving people everyone was well fed and healthy.

That's easy. Back in the day, the typing cursor changed depending on INSERT or OVERWRITE mode. That's why the other three have lights, because there was no on-screen indicator. After the move to Windows, nobody bothered changing the keyboard.
It... it still does, at least as late as vista. Or at least does for the Opera typing bitsies. Does for Libreoffice, too. To wit: vs in Opera, with the second being insert mode overwrite on.

Uh.
Wait a sec.

Belated, since I didn't notice until I got to school and so couldn't really respond, but... I... I hadn't seen that fic site before. It... it has an option to search the entire bloody thing by word count. That... that makes me happy.

On the downside, I now really kinda' wish Loki would stop buggering Stark and molesting Thor. Seriously Loki, you can stop now. Well over a dozen Avengers fics in what I filtered through, like two didn't have either a Loki/Stark or Loki/Thor pairing. It's like Naruto all over again, except with added incest ;_;

E: Also bloody hell poor bilbo. Poor thorin. Poor all of them.

Well, you need light for your algae, so you structure has to be more or less flat.
Like. Mirrors, right? Or something with some water flow so the algae rotates into sunlight? Might be able to rock something pyramidal or cylindrical with stuff like that.

Also, uh. Sides. Sides get sunlight, too. Pretty sure that's why vertical farming works at all?

E: What I'm saying is I don't think flat has much to do with it. Hang a giant clear pyramid from a zeppelin and float it over the alps -- still work. Ridiculously inefficient, of course, but hell, Babylon needs to be one-upped one of these days. Forget the hanging gardens, we'll have the Flying Seven Wonders Algae Farm.

It is 12:58am, and I just got home. Still got work tomorrow, of course. Fuuuuuuuuck

Dammit, Sirus, they are just using you! Is there any way for you to not take this crap? Or will you just get fired?
Siru is in the states. You can assume the latter and be right more often than not :P

At least 'es getting paid for the time, I think. S'more than some get, at times.

*looks left* *looks right* Invest in an adapter? Because there's totally power plug thingies for standard appliances for 12v sockets. Don't even remember them being very expensive. And hey, you're not the one that eventually has to replace the battery... right?

*vague shrug* Why not? It's not like it's conceptually distanced all that much from spaghetti. Noodles in tomato sauce est.

The Dinger didn't perform as comparatively poorly as I was expecting in URF mode. It's nice to be able to really spam those missiles and grenades. Normally they're kinda' too expensive to really use as a mainstay. Ended up going top with a Varus, somewhere around level 2-3 we transitioned to farming behind the enemy top tower and chewing things apart as they approached <3

... 'course, I had also completely forgotten the change to Heimer's missiles, ha. Still went pretty decently, though~

Going for gold: T2/G3/L3 all day erry day. It's not as consistent but you get bunches of other junk on the side. I love me turmoil/luck, ha. Can stick the turmoil gains into more dominion or something, I'unno. Effectively basing your income on something unrelated (I think, anyway.) to the quality of your provinces and instead hinging on the quantity of them makes for interesting times. So many events *flails*

Also dem items and free path diversification and heroes >_<
