    What was it, Neo Scavenger - while it didn't do quite *that* it still threw these terrible deaths at you, like, dysentery more than once :D I believe it's the only game that actually lets the player shit themselves to death

    Unsurprisingly I usually encounter odd narrative elements in older game or indie games exclusively. Occasionally there is comedic gold such as "That's right. You have no head. That darn pool must have been filled with acid. You obviously can't go on living that way." -The Narrator from Space Quest when Roger drinks from the Pool on Kerona.

    What separates it from erectus anyway?
    zegh8578

    I haven't read the paper itself, it's paywalled and probably pretty dry stuff - but my impression is that little-to-nothing separates it, which is why paleontologists are voicing their frustration. The differences will be minute enough, to warrant careful comparisons with all known advanced Hominins in order to justify a new species

    Like I said tho, taxonomy aside - even if H. luzonensis is sunk into H. erectus - or in any other way regarded as dubious - that doesn't reduce the importance of the discovery itself. Here's a nice wiki summary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_luzonensis

    "We are outnumbered" turns into "We are superior" in Google translate -.-
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    I really am not sure how these things happen, it can't be just trolling, but afaik the translations are built on user interaction, kind of like Wikipedia. This isn't the first time results translate into *the polaric opposite* meaning though

    I was never into Iggy Pop (except "I wanna be your dog" is awesome) - but the dude refuses to die, and still tours, that's truly impressive

    Even 23 years ago, it's made into a joke in Trainspotting, when Diane just assumes the guy must be long dead, and Renton corrects her, saying the guy is still touring
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    He is 71 now, wrinkled skin hanging off his stringy abs, and I bet 20 years from now he will be still touring, 90 year old whisps of white hair dangling from his head

    The Stooges were awesome.
    Iggy seems to be whatever alien species that Keith Richards is. Every time some human takes 7 minutes off their life with a cigarette, they gain those minutes.

    I've long wanted that kinda American Psycho shower, with black tiles, no "booth", just a big room with water coming from the ceiling

    Sounds like a prison shower.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    I don't think so, prison shower kindov is the same as public pool showers or school gym showers. I'm talking about a much smaller room, with the black tiles giving a dark feel that is very underappreciated in bathrooms. Bright white bathrooms are easier to clean -
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    But a dark bathroom, that's goth-metal, ever showered in the dark with only a candle or two? I got so comfy, I managed to sit down and almost fall asleep. Which reminds me - I also want a chair in the shower.

    One of the more crucial points in designing a fantasy world map is to - at all costs - avoid subconcious penis shapes

    Based on legit source, while not exactly very perfect intepretation it simply much better than other scattered version in google image.

    That map isn't similar to Pangaea though, but I'm not blaming you, it's a misunderstanding of what Pangaea is (just the fact that there's a continent there that looks like Africa. Real life Africa would not occur untill after Gondwana rips apart)
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    That map looks analogous to modern Earth, more than anything - it has an Africa - it has a continent that alludes to the Americas, it has small Indian subcontinent as well as an overgrown Madagascar. It looks cool, actually (but has very little in common with real world Pangaea :D)

    Alt. history communities are so lame. I should join them, and just slap Norwegian conquest on everything as a rule, Qin? Conquered by Norway

    I like the alt history where Neandertal enslaved homo sapiens.

    What kind of cuckery is that toront? Neanderthals are bigger losers than even the jewyest jew! In alt history you can't "rectify" things for historical losers! You can only dream up the glory of your peop - OHHHHH!

    One thing I love about writing, is constantly questioning what I think I know, or things I never gave much thought - such as right now -

    - I had to go and find out what the spikes on a fork are called in Norwegian :D Apparently, they're "tinder" (plural of tind), which is the same word we use for mountain peaks, such as Glittertind. NOW I KNOW :O

    I also just finished looking up different shades of blue, just to double-check.

    I love writing too. Especially when it comes to mods for NV. I like to write all kinds of different questions, answers and responses for players to chose. It's fun.

    I love that there should exist anywhere between 60 and 120 nuclear devices unaccounted for, likely in private hands.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    One can wonder "what are they waiting for", while not being rethorical about it. What - indeed - are they waiting for, whomever posesses a (at least for a time) functional nuclear warhead

    What was it called when people many years ago had to hand-draw maps? Shit, I know it starts with a 'c'.
    zegh8578

    Not sure what you mean now (incidentally, I'm hand-drawing a map, made up one, but looking for good old political-map types for comparison, styles, line-work etc)

    I just now realized Jogre no longer posts. See, that's how you leave a forum! Back in the day, that's how I'd leave a party, just, *shadow*

    Did more people leave because of ""mod censorship"" or something and make a scene in my absence?, Reminds me of the good old days of Vergil's ban when everyone was throwing a tantrum, lol.

    Anyway, I'm kinda amazed that anyone actually noticed I dissapeared. I kinda just faded out and stopped posting so I assumed nobody would notice.

    That's how it's done. And nah, I think we only had Pariah Dog rage-quitting afaik, dunno if you caught his shenanigans? Hass renamed him "Cliffy McEdgeface" which kind of sums up the guys schtick, once everybody got sufficiently sick of him. Well, I say "everybody", I guess some people like the whole "angry self-loathing aspie" routine.

    The ones I got to spend time with were African penguins. I believe they are endangered.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    large number of penguins inhabit Africa, Australia + New Zealand, or South America, since primarily they are oceanic, so long as it's southern hemisphere. While Africa proper may be hot, they'll only breed there, and spend the rest of their lives in frigid oceans
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Yeah, checking a bit now, and as I suspected, Antarctica is like... "final boss"-level habitat, most penguins stick to warmer climates further north, while only a handful of badass species actually go to Antarctica itself

    Does anybody know a good all encompassing handguns information database online? Like a reliable go-to site?

    I used to go to modernfirearms.net, but I've gotten surprise trojans there before, and it - for some reason - seems to somehow circumvent my ad-block, so... I'm not comfortable going there anymore

    Not really but the internet movie firearm database is nice.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    I agree, but yeah, I woulda loved something searchable, like, models per year or something like that
