Two Dope Queens is a new comedy podcast, there has only been one episode, but it appears to be recordings of Jessica Williams and Phoebe Robinson hosting comedy shows. The guest comedians they had were really good. http://www.wnyc.org/shows/dopequeens/

Somebody really wanted this thread started, but nobody took action so I did it for everybody.

Idle Cook Club - Veggie Feeds-me: My Body Is Ready
Cordeos replied to SuperBiasedMan's topic in Idle Banter
I found my broth disappointing as well. I ended up adding hoisin sauce to my broth to give it some flavor. I think I will just use Miso paste next time. A lot easier, and way tastier! -
Huh I thought it was oked by everybody.

I am sad you would make such a blanket statement about everybody like that.

Anybody who is anybody should.

I was hoping nobody would notice. Figures somebody would.

Nobody, but especially somebody.

I love waking up to companies already backtracking

This thread is now about ethics in video-games journalism, so it should probably be closed.

Idle Thumbs 256: The First Great Brand War
Cordeos replied to Chris's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
"A new Intro Pack now contains Prologue and Paris levels and will release at the new price of $15 or the regional equivalent. Each subsequent location will be priced at $10 as an add-on item to the Intro Pack. Alternatively, those who purchase the Intro Pack can upgrade to the full game with the $50 Upgrade Pack. Players can also buy the full game and upcoming content for $60 up front. This includes all of the 2016 content as it’s released along with all live and bonus content. A disc version of Hitman will ship at the end of 2016." Looks like its $5 more to buy the intro pack and then upgrade. https://www.vg247.com/2016/01/14/hitman-will-be-released-as-a-truly-episodic-aaa-game-experience/ -
Idle Thumbs 256: The First Great Brand War

Next level is being released on the 26th. I hope they pay attention to players about this stuff, but who knows. It also might take a few levels before changes start showing up. I imagine the Italy level was mostly done by the time Paris was released. We have seen a lot less of Morocco and whatever the airport looking level is. -
All pledges made on internet forums are binding contracts.

Idle Thumbs 256: The First Great Brand War
Cordeos replied to Chris's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
When Nick failed the mission, it was because he was playing an escalation mission instead of the main one. Escalation missions have specific requirements for what you are wearing or how you kill a target which is why you fail immediately for doing it wrong. Most hitman levels run without you. The Paris level will run till 'completion' if you let it. There have been a few missions in previous games that will actually fail if you let them run long enough. There was a mission in Blood Money where you are tasked with taking out three agents of a competing assassination agency and saving a government official from them. If you don't stop the payment briefcase from getting to them you have to move quickly to stop the assassination from happening. I am pretty sure there were levels where targets would leave eventually if you let it run long enough. Important Hitman video: I love this guy, he makes some great weird stuff. -
I think it's standard confirmation bias, people remember the things that make them angry so they have a skewed view of the reporting. Early on the issue was Sanders wasn't getting much coverage, but now I think its probably fine. The bigger issue is how trapped the media is by the two party narrative, there are so few stories that talk about issues outside of each parties talking points.

This recipe turned out well, aside from two mentions of mushrooms that are not listed in the ingredient list. https://food52.com/recipes/33350-vegetarian-shepherd-s-pie -
Nationalities representation in games aligns with pretty much with the representation of any other group, lazy writers use stereotypes.

Index funds are essentially betting that the stock market in general will do well. Usually its buying shares in the top companies on the market. If you ever hear people talking about the S&P 500, that is an index fund. here is the episode if you are interested. http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2016/03/04/469247400/episode-688-brilliant-vs-boring

You can use the vive sitting down with a controller, so not sure why touch would be an issue. I think it has more to do with Rift trying to lock down exclusives than anything.
