  1. Admin Vacation - Reign of Bii

    Have a nice nap.

  2. Foods to try before you die

    Sounds the opposite of what I wrote about. The point is to cook the surface because it may have been exposed to microbial contaminants and warm the meat, but eat the interior raw.

  3. General chat thread

    I should do that one of these days. I have done it in the past so nothing too novel for me.

  4. Foods to try before you die

    Ouch. The correct way to cook and eat a steak is to brown (not char!) the surface and get the interior warm. Then eat it before it cooks all the way through. For sauce, mix some cream into the juices left over on the frying pan and heat.

  5. Foods to try before you die

    I do not know if it is common in America or not, but if you have never had sandwich cake, I recommend you give it a chance. I fell in love at first taste as a child.

  6. General chat thread

    Nothing in the article indicates an outbreak that warrants calling it a plague. And it is apparently not new at all.

  7. General chat thread

    The Bible is quite explicit about it. When Joseph took Mary to Betlehem, where she gave birth to Jesus, she is referred to as his betrothed, not wife.

  8. General chat thread

    Blessed year of our Lord 2026!

  9. Zombie Invasion Underway!

    Working from home spreading the outbreak rather than concentrating them conveniently at offices.

  10. Video Games General

    "detailed turn-based battles" Sounds nice in theory, but the experience usually scales very poorly with number of combatants.

  11. Video Games General

    Trying to wrangle legion members to show up to fight in Warflow was frustrating. All it would have taken them was clicking one button in as I recall 30 minute window but it could have been even longer. I took that game way too seriously, though. At least I was able to pass my presidency by...

  12. Video Games General

    Interesting. Seems like I could drop some mods. Maybe this will help with the red and yellow spam.

  13. Video Games General

    I suspect there is more games than one with that name. Because I do not really see resemblance to the game about rogue AI managing resources and working to achieve technological singularity while avoiding human suspicion.

  14. Video Games General

    That is like returning to the roots of Doom though.

  15. Zombie Invasion Underway!

    *BLAM* Hah, I got you first! No dying in flames for me this time. I learned my lesson 12 years ago.
