    what. Artemis and Drizzt are characters in R.A. Salvatore's Forgotten Realms novels.
  2. You have excellent taste in podcasts. I greatly enjoyed it as well.
  3. I can confirm this issue with Safari 7.0.1 on OS X 10.9.1. It's with the Sylo theme only and on the individual forum index pages only. The issue does not occur in Firefox 26.0 or Chrome 31.0 on the same system.

  5. If every issue were put to a national vote, the government would get even less done than it does now.
  6. Is that the original Nethergate or Nethergate: Resurrection? The original Nethergate was never made for OS X and will not run on any Intel Mac.
  7. I can't fix the clunkiness, but I have a fix for the lack of quest log.
  8. Hard drive access shouldn't be very CPU-intensive.
  9. I was disappointed that Jeff didn't add a quest to cure Pearlblossom when he made N:R.
  10. He did. He wrote a series of books that ended with the end of World War II. In this series, the South freed the slaves in the late 19th century, but African Americans were still second-class citizens who couldn't vote. When WWI came around the South sided with the Allies, having close ties to England and Franc, and the North sided with the Central Powers. Neither side sent troops to Europe, and instead fought a long bloody trench war in North America. During the war, African Americans in the South rose up in a socialist revolution. The were eventually crushed, but this hurt the Confederate war effort. The North fought a two-front war, holding the South at bay while they invaded Canada and successfully wrested it from British control. Eventually, the Central Powers won the war, and the Allied nations were forced to pay heavy reparations to the victors. This weakened the already strained Confederate economy and caused drastic inflation. By the time the stock market crash of 1929 came around, the South was in really bad shape. From this chaos, the fascist Nazi-analogous Freedom party rose to power, and similar fascist regimes took control of France and England. The Confederates started locking away African Americans in concentration camps and eventually started murdering them. Tensions increased between the two nations, and, eventually, the South invaded the North. The US fought a losing battle for a while but was able to turn the tide and utterly defeat the South, but not before both sides set off atomic bombs. The series ends with the North completely subjugating the South post-WWII.

    Party time!

    I could make a joke about going black and never going back, but there are several members, myself included, for whom that does not always hold true.
  12. That's not a meme. That's just the truth.
  13. In the unlikely event that Steam's servers go offline, you can start Steam in offline mode.
  14. I guess I'm not a real person then.
  15. When I make pancakes, I normally make them on a griddle greased with bacon grease.
  16. Personally, I'm a fan of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."
  17. There may have been some glitch that caused it not to accurately record when you played the game, or you may have played in offline mode. Steam does not track play time in offline mode. Steam has definitely tracked playtime across multiple computers for a very long time if not since the beginning.

    I love poutine. My sister went to a university in New Brunswick, and going to the local diner for poutine was my favorite thing about going to visit her.

    Congratulations, Nikki. I have never seen crumpets in the US. I've also never seen them in the UK, but I never looked for them either. Why didn't you offer me crumpets when I visited, Nikki?
