I guess I no longer have a reason to postpone the inevitable and will need to buy it now. :)

If my info is correct, Epic charges 12%, whereas Steam charges 30%. Which is probably why games like Metro & The Division 2 are moving there. Somehow, I think the gains made by lowering cost will be lost simply due to selling less though... But maybe this will force Steam to lower its rates on...

When I shoot indoors, it's with both ear plugs AND earmuffs. Hearing damage was super common (obviously also from artillery, not just small arms). However, there were some measures people took to get rudimentary protection: wax balls, empty 9x19mm/.32ACP/7.62Tok casings or cotton balls. It...

Having a normal conversation while under fire (and returning fire), ranks up there with the biggest nonsense in movies as far as I'm concerned. If you want to see movies with proper portrayal of gun fights, look up some Michael Mann movies. HEAT is legendary, and with good reason.

That's only the porcelain Glock 7.

I'm not adverse to paying subscription fees if the game is good, has a community and at least some of the money is used for further development & community management. I don't currently pay any subscriptions though. I hate pay to win games or games with paying lootboxes far more than any...

Aside from being ironically named, probably one of the first times Glock actually listened to their fanbase. :) I may not be a Glock fan in general, but the Glock 45 fits perfectly in its niche. Certainly one I'd consider if I were to buy a Glock.

I think you're going to have to define your interpretation of postmodernism and what aspects of it you want to discuss, because it's quite a broad subject and one that probably has a very fuzzy definition for a lot of people.

You don't need to have a cat named Niggerman to enjoy reading H.P. Lovecraft. C.S. Lewis being a religious kook or not hardly changes the value of that quote.

I was more thinking about the act (a kick to the nuts) rather than the person. But as for Roshambo, he could ban people for weirdly specific & not entirely meaningful reasons, but I don't remember him ever banning anyone without cause. He didn't put up with fools though, that's for sure. I do...

You could get a roshambo instead, if that makes you feel better. This argument is pointless unless both parties clearly explain what they understand to fall under the banner of "Gender Studies".

I have no recollection of why he got banned. There doesn't seem to be any discussion about him in the mod & admin forums. I would assume an administrator banhammered him & no appeal was filed. I do doubt that his quoted post above is the only thing that got him banned. I presume there were a...

You're troubled by the fact that a guy with an axe doesn't blindly rush to meet three guys with rifles & machine guns? Arguably, you could expect him to run away scared once all his friends are dead, staying in cover is his second best option in combat as it allows him to close the gap.

Your picture might give the wrong idea due to the red stripes on your arm, but be sure to NEVER dry fire a bow.

The comfort of holding a pistol in your hand is generally not a good indicator of how well it'll shoot for you. While it's not always possible, I would strongly suggest actually shooting a few handguns before making a choice of what works for you & what doesn't. Some guns that have felt great...

@Black Rose: Seems like the consensus is Bud's Gun Shop & Range has quite good classes in the Lexington area.

I'll ask around for recommendations. Do note that a lot of the "self-defense" classes will be oriented towards concealed carry. This is somewhat at odds with your goal of home defense. CCW requires a weapon which is small & light enough to carry without too much hassle. The most important part...

From previous comments, I take it you're in Kentucky? Various ranges near you & the NRA should be offering classes to get you acquainted with the safe handling of guns and will explain what to keep in mind when selecting a weapon for home defense. If you narrow down where you are, we can...

Well, in The Witcher 2 she was a character with depth. In The Witcher 3 she was only there to display her boobs. I like The Witcher 3, but I was seriously let down with what they did with Vernon Roche & Ves. Cover yourself up, woman! You're a fighter, not a harlot.

Women in games that I've liked: Jade from Beyond Good & Evil. Tali'Zorah from Mass Effect 1/2 Triss Merigold from The Witcher Ciri is nice too ofc, but she's your adopted daughter, you fucking pervert! Too bad they turned Ves into a harlot in The Witcher 3. Honorable mentions to...
