Every time we do it breaks out into civil war drama. I also quite like this 'days without drama' sign. This is the longest we've stayed in double digits. Or is it triple digits? It's been quite a while. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread: 4 Score and Several Threads Ago... - Surge - 04-28-2016 Which is why I said I'm not supposed to!

Newton's third law. Most of the depictions I've seen of railguns describe them as slow firing but dealing massive damage with each shot. I would expect a lot of that reload time is letting the driver circuitry cool down and recharge. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread: 4 Score and Several Threads Ago... - Surge - 04-28-2016 I mean I have complained about the overzealous conflict aversion before but we have people who only come by to cause trouble and generally grief and they almost always log on for this subject.

Tell me about it? That 75% almost certainly includes spambots who attack this place relentlessly. Not only are there multiple levels of verification needed to make sure that the new users aren't spammers, but any accounts that are registered and then do not post more than a couple of times in 90 days are deleted to keep the user list at a sane level. Its amazing how desperate a lot of spam operators are to distribute their garbage. As for the people who decided to go elsewhere, that's their choice. They settled on a chatroom service that allows for much faster interaction than forums usually provide. I personally dislike that sort of scheme because it inevitably becomes a circlejerk that ends when the people involved get so tired of one another they start to fight and decide to leave. We basically don't talk about it at all on here anymore, since everyone makes their own choices in life and its better to just let things like that be as they are.

An infinite set of numbers contains itself because it is itself, simple identity. The statement is true because of the fact that it isn't necessarily self referencing , also liar paradox. Riddle of the Sphinx, baby human walks on all four, adult on two, elderly on 3 if the cane counts.

Because while they were used in portal2, they are in fact far older than that. And I'm pretty sure the sphinx riddle was not in Portal2, because AIs can solve that one a variety of ways assuming a sufficiently large knowledgebase. |
