yeah, have fun with that, roomie

she’s freaked out because i found a recluse in the shower when i was in there a bit ago.  i made it a smear on the wall and then proceeded to tell the rest of them to stay out of the tub.  they probably won’t listen to me, but it’s funny how scared of them roomie is.

Microsoft's chief of interactive entertainment, Don Mattrick admits the xbox one was a "flop" → youtube.com

Don mattrick apologizes for the xbox one being a failure and not meeting to their customers standards.

OH SHIT

IT HAPPENED

omg! he really admits it, about time.

There are times when, as a businessman, you’ve gotta admit to your mistakes and failures. The next step after that is learning from your mistakes and planning to do better in the future. Just like anything else in life, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

I’m sure Microsoft will bounce back in about 3 or 4 years with a bigger and better video game console, just as long as they realize exactly what went wrong. (*cough*tv*cough*, *cough*superduperpiracyparanoia*cough*) I’d happily buy it.

Until then, let’s see what the gaming market does with a cable box equipped with mandatory (possible) spyware, lol. I’m excited to see what the hacking culture does with it.

I’m laughing so hard because this entire post sums up tumblr perfectly

My uncle died.

iwantcupcakes:

Resulting from massive CVA hemorrhage secondary to a ruptured aneurysm.

In simple terms, he had a stroke.

In simpler terms, his brain bled out.

He was 52.

(Hypertension, the leading cause risk factor of hemorrhagic stroke, runs in my family.)

:(  *hugs*

some more Torchlight stuff

-only three character classes.  restricted to a certain gender (ranged is chick, melee/mage dudes).  unless you mod game.  :-/

-has ancestor deal where you retire a character and pick an item to send to a character that follows it.  you can keep doing that up to 10 times with one item to make it a wee bit uber.

-i don’t know what the level cap is.  i’ve seen characters up to 100…

-you can transform your pet into various critters for xxx seconds to gain different strengths, bonuses, and weaknesses.

-base pet types are dog (wolf), cat (kinda looks like a bobcat) and a ferret (yes, a ferret).

-can get gems to socket items with.

-can enchant items (have to pay x amount of gold, i think).

Torchlight is pretty fun

Little dungeon crawler game.  Lots of loot.  Can send pet into town with loot to sell so you can stay in dungeon.  Very nice.

andtheniwaskilled:

Tumblr is a legitimate source of the forms of information that might be withheld by public education due to flaws in the system or the attitudes that control it but since the information is relayed in a peer-to-peer format the tradeoff for accessibility is a lack of the quality control enforced by education establishments which means those educating themselves through tumblr or other social media have to practise forms of fact-checking or verification in order to avoid being misled by those disseminating falsehoods and this is apparently the hardest concept in the world ever to understand.

And always assume Twitter posts are fake unless proven otherwise.

That’s a simple start, though I still think the person posting it is the one that ought to prove it’s real, but people are dumb.
