    PS4 Headsets

    Earbuds from my Galaxy s7 are great, but I also have the Sony Gold headset, which works fantastic. For PC gaming I have a pair of studio headphones, and a pair of Logitech bluetooth ones if I need to actually speak to others, which isn't that often
  4. I hope NPC's are cheap. I always felt that that was one thing EVE got right. You didn't need to worry about Crew at all, if you want to fly a Carrier, then go nuts, if you want a small frigate, then do that. You just need the training, and then you are good to go.
  5. I agree that is good. However marketing professionals need to, otherwise shit like this happens. Talk about dumb. They could have gone with a hundred other combo's but they went with monkeys
  6. Watch them then Via the FG App
  7. Not really like Taken Via the FG App
  8. Sorry man, I have zero idea about mac's
  9. Just watched this Really fun movie, serious Jackie Chan is much better than comedy action Jackie Chan
  10. Looks like someone spilled rabbit food all up in your dish man. Add some steak or something! (looks good minus the onions)
  11. This might be the best movie I have seen in several years.
  12. Not a fan of Salon.com typically, but I thought this op-ed was solid. https://www.salon.com/2018/01/06/swatting-didnt-kill-a-man-police-did/ “Swatting” didn’t kill a man, police did Police accountability needs to be a part of the conversation in the shooting of an innocent man after a prank call Andrew Finch, a 28-year-old father of two, was shot and killed after walking out of his front door. The police officer who fired the weapon was part of a SWAT team called out to what they believed was a violent situation that involved a shooting and kidnapping. It turns out the emergency call to authorities was just a hoax, and Finch an innocent victim. The story has been covered widely since it happened on Dec. 28 in Wichita, Kansas. The suspected prankster has been arrested, his criminal background repeatedly cited, and one headline after another has branded “swatting” as a deadly prank. “Swatting” is when someone calls emergency services anonymously to report a fake situation with the intention of getting a SWAT team or large police presence to respond to the address given. But is it the “swatting” that’s deadly, or the police officer who pulled the trigger? “There’s a reason why swatting is such an effective tactic,” said Kade Crockford from the ACLU of Massachusetts in an interview last week for “Salon Now.” “It’s because police departments across the country have largely, in the dark, militarized to the extent that they are really hair-trigger ready to be deployed by a malicious actor like this in a prank that unfortunately, in Kansas, ended in someone’s death." SWAT teams are primarily used in the war on drugs, often in lower income and minority communities. An ACLU study from 2014 found that 80 percent of the raids they analyzed were carried out to execute a search warrant. The allegedly violent incident that police were responding to and the amount of media attention paid to the raid in Kansas makes it an outlier. “This is obviously a very highly publicized SWAT raid that ended very badly. SWAT raids end badly all the time in the United States,” said Crockford. Watch the full interview with Crockford in the video below to hear more about the ACLU's findings The government doesn’t keep across-the-board statistics on SWAT raids, but a New York Times investigation found that at least 81 civilians and 13 law enforcement officers died in raids of this kind from 2010 through 2016, with many others maimed or wounded. “We really have to look at police department policies and procedures with respect to what happens after those SWAT teams are deployed,” said Crockford. “We have to ask, as a society, what are we doing or not doing at a systemic level that enables these kinds of mistakes to take place.” Despite a renewed national focus on excessive police force, thanks in large part to the Black Lives Matter movement, courts have shown that the law usually sides with the officers involved if they believed their lives were in danger. Radley Balko has written extensively about police militarization and no-knock raids. In his latest article at the Washington Post about the Kansas incident, he wrote about the conditioning of police to believe they are increasingly under attack, despite statistics showing the opposite to be true. “It puts lives at unnecessary risk. It increases the chances that a police officer will see an innocent gesture as a furtive one,” wrote Balko. As much as “swatting” is a waste of public resources and an atrocious prank that deserves attention, it’s irresponsible and disingenuous to leave police accountabilityout of the conversation about the case in Kansas.
  13. yes, but that isn't the case in Vanilla MC, you have to use Shulker boxes then.
  14. Back when I was still a member of the NRA, one of the things they always pointed out was that if you get sued for shooting someone in self defense, you need to aim to kill as the amount you would pay out is lower than if you were to injure them and permanently disable them. I was a pretty hardcore Republican so it made sense to me at the time. Sadly it still makes sense to me
  15. I got the name of the blocks and the trees confused, sorry. https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Purpur_Block Those are the blocks https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Chorus_Plant that is the tree. Sorry about that
  16. End cities are fun for Shulker boxes, and Purpur trees
  17. OMG this is amazing

    D1 v D2 pvp

    If you ever watch the live streams of Bungie Dev's in PVP, you will see that they absolutely hated it. Mainly because they sucked at it. IF The Devs were actually better at playing the game they designed, we wouldn't have half the issues we do now.
  19. Well shit, Sorry my dude. Something to keep in mind for Plumber's reset/ rebuild then
  20. This one is not a Strategy game. The series has one though, it is called Starpoint Gemini Warlords. I haven't finished the tutorial yet in it, to be able to say how it is
  21. Rockets should work with Elytra on our server. Also, on PC the Ender Dragon fight is a huge PITA. Take a group, unless your goal is to spend 30 minutes shooting arrows and breaking pillars. Honestly, IMO its not worth the headache at all, just go hunt for End Cities instead
  22. https://giant.gfycat.com/SoulfulCreepyArgentineruddyduck.webm Carrot Cake Cookies Ingredients: 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly 1 large egg, room temperature 1 tsp vanilla extract ½ cup maple syrup 1 cup (100g) instant oats ¾ cup (100g) all purpose flour 1 ½ tsp baking powder 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon pinch salt ¾ cup grated carrots (about 1 medium) 1/3 cup currants Cream cheese frosting: 1/3 cup powdered sugar, measured then sifted 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature 2 Tbsp butter, room temperature ¾ tsp vanilla extract Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350°F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: melted butter, egg, and vanilla. Stir in the maple syrup. Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Fold in the carrots and currants. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. Drop the cookie dough into 12 rounded scoops on the baking sheet. Bake 15-18 minutes until brown around the edges and cooked through. Cool the cookies while preparing the cream cheese frosting. Beat the cream cheese and butter together with a hand mixer, add the vanilla then sift in the powdered sugar. Spoon or pipe the frosting onto the cookies.
