Can you get a second opinion? I tore my gamekeepers ligament in my right hand. (it controls your thumbs movement) One doctor was all about surgery and shit, and how I would never have proper use of my hand again if I didn't go under the knife. Went to another doctor, he had me do a cast for 90 days, and then phys therapy with silly putty for a few weeks. I went to the first two Phys therapy sessions, and asked a ton of questions and shit, then went home and just kept doing those exercises daily, and never went back. After a few weeks, everything started returning to normal.

LMFAO And yet, here you are, again.... Anyway. I personally like what Kim Davis has done. She came out publicly, with a totally untenable position, and got people to agree with her. We can now look accurately at her "supporters" and judge them appropriately for being morons. (Looking at you, Ted Cruz)

http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2015/09/05/destiny-lawsuit-solves-two-mysteries-a-composers-departure-and-a-fractured-story/ Two mysteries have been solved today after the release of court documents regarding a lawsuit against Bungie by a former employee. The first is why after a long, productive relationship, composer Marty O’Donnell was fired from the company after he scored Destiny. The second is what on earth happened to Destiny’s story for it to be so fractured and incoherent at launch. VentureBeat has a deep dive into the court docs, and both the answers are within. First and foremost, O’Donnell won the case, which is the big news, as it gives him a cash award from the company based on stock he was supposed to be able to hang on to, but after his firing, that was in dispute. As for why he was fired, O’Donnell claimed that he sparred with Activision’s marketing team, who wanted to score the trailers for Destiny themselves, something he normally did on all past Halo games. After that, O’Donnell’s working relationship with Activision and Bungie became somewhat toxic, and his lack of engagement with the work apparently led to his eventual firing. But also in the court documents is the first official confirmation that Destiny dramatically reworked its story, which combined with issues with O’Donnell it seems, and led to a number of delays. From VB: “While Destiny was planned for a September 2013 release, the story was substantially revised in August 2013. That pushed the release date back to March 2014. O’Donnell returned to work after a vacation, but the audio team and his supervisor did not consider him to be fully engaged in his work. The release date of the game, meanwhile, pushed back to September 2014. Bungie set in motion a process to terminate O’Donnell.” Fans have always wondered why Destiny is so light on story, and rumors have circulated about the idea that a major rework took place ahead of launch. This has been hinted at and quasi-confirmed before, with early testers saying the Destiny they played was considerably different than the final product, and early trailer showed cutscenes that ended up not being in the game at all (see the lead image of this post). The rumor was Bungie gutted the story and brought in a Grimoire card author as a way to bolster the lore, but the damage was done. This document shows that in some capacity, this did indeed happen. Though the specifics of what happened to the story and why it was so dramatically changed at such a late hour is not mentioned however. There are a few theories as to that, my favorite being that Destiny contains a twist where the beloved Traveler is evil, and we’re his undead instruments committing alien genocide on a massive scale. That twist (or something like it) may still be coming, but it appears for launch, Bungie wanted to massively simplify the entire story into something along the lines of “kill all these aliens, trust us they’re bad.” With such huge changes to the story so late in the game, they quite literally didn’t have time to explain why they didn’t have time to explain. As for the O’Donnell feud that sparked this entire production, it seems to be as ugly as anyone imagined. The specifics of the issues between Bungie and O’Donnell have been under wraps, but with the release of these documents, neither side comes out looking great. Given his great work in the past, it seems dumb to spar with a genius like O’Donnell over something as trivial as the score for trailers and ads, and they should have just let him do his thing. But later, it seems that a large number of staff, not just execs, were dissatisfied with O’Donnell’s perceived lack of effort after being beleaguered by Bungie and Activision, which ultimately led to his dismissal. And yet the crux of the case was not “who was a jerk,” but rather, what O’Donnell was legally owed despite being fired. And it appears the answer is quite a lot. For a (very) thorough breakdown of the ruling, head over to VB. I find the story confirmation the most interesting part of all of this, even if it is just a footnote, and I’m hoping that years from now we can hear exactly what happened there. The O’Donnell issue is just sad, and though it would be amazing to see him somehow work with Bungie again, after this, that seems exceptionally unlikely. However, also from the documents, it’s implied that O’Donnell somehow composed enough music to last the full-ten year lifespan of the series, and it will continue to be used going forward. I’ve reached out to Bungie to see if they have an official comment on the ruling. Bonus Find: Also buried in the documents? Destiny is described as a five-part series, meaning the “every other year for a full sequel” theory many fans and observers have had for a while now may be valid.

what the actual fuck? those guys are clearly out of ideas.

My prediction: [spoilers] I spend all day at work getting hyped. I get home at 6 and check if the patch has started, it hasn't I walk the dog and then check again, nope I check the Reddit forums and get in an argument with a Thorn hater. Suddenly the DLC starts downloading I watch it up to 10% but then common sense takes over and I start making some food I repeatedly check the progress while food is cooking and continue to troll Thorn hater, food gets a little burnt Finish food, I've watched it creep up while eating. Obligatory chuckle when it got stuck at 69% Yep, even though I called the wife just now to tell her to fire up the PS4, the patch still won't be running

I almost bought the books this weekend for my son. I was going to make a post today about if anyone had read them, now I don't have to lol Last movies: Black Rock - fucking horrible movie Woman in black (w/ Daniel Radcliffe) - Really solid ghost story

Ouch! My family Dr has recieved 500$ in meals so far.

I actually wanted to do ToO at some point so that makes me sad PoE though, I had a lot of fun with you guys and would still run it. That being said, HoW was as big a let down as CE. The faction rewards were crap compared to any of the PVP factions or even Vangaurd. It was all way to muhc of a PITA. Still though, I play this to hang with you guys and I enjoyed our time in the game

oh dude NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I feel dirt for laughing at that one (Also, WTF is on her head?)

Yea, I have been playing Zavod Night ops It is far darker than it should be to be honest. to the point of being unenjoyable depending on the flag you are on. I was expecting Tehran Highway from BF3, what I got was a total blackout. Still though, I have been having a great time in BF4 lately.

Cirathorn 375 hours Deleted characters only 38 hours

What the hell? Not sure how I feel about this one, I am pretty sure I don't like it though

Need to hold off till I have cash, but I will be getting it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJkzcQDqbpE I don't know about the rest of you guys, but this actually really bothers me.

Why a slim version? Honestly wondering here, but do people buy based off of that?

Hold off. I might be making moves over to linux here soon. The reason is for the "spying" that is supposedly happening from Microsoft. Right now there is a ton of information out there, and most of it is questionable. So it is hard to say what is happening and what isn't

The Town Ben Affleck, Jeremy Renner, and some others. This was far better than I expected to be honest

It has sensitivity controls on it so you can control how fast or slow it moves. When I used to game using it, the battery lasted about 5 hours. Thats with constant use

Logitech G7 It is pricey, but it comes with two batteries, and the charger doubles as the USB port for the signal reciever. I've had one for about 8 years now, and it is AMAZING

Oh yea,I know. I was being silly

And the whack jobs are out in full force today it seems. Logistically, just how exactly are the Federales going to come and take all of our guns?

play rocket league? I think I deleted it actually, let me check later
