Regarding SWEATER I feel pretty sure that there wasn't much endgame content in WoW at release either.
There wasn't much, nah. I think only Molten Core, really, a lot of the dungeons were messed up, dire maul wasn't even in the game, you could raid the 10 man (or whatever they were) instances with 40 people to farm the loot there really quick as a guild etc.
In a game model that is focused around constantly adding content being an early adopter can seem kind of silly. Of course, wait too long to get on board and they start making content obsolete, though, usually only expansion packs will do that.

Speaking of major software, I'm considering the move from Logic to Ableton, if only for composition.
Like, I stayed awake for an hour last night thinking about it.
As someone with a small finger on the Apple Software world, you are best waiting a few more months, as I suspect an overhaul of Logic is going to be out by Summer.
And if the overhaul is akin to the "Final Cut Pro X" one they recently did, you will end up having to decide between two new products anyways.
Yeah but i hate this game:
"Oh SWEET new version of Logic, I'mma get it!"
"BUT A NEW ABLETON WILL BE OUT IN A FEW MONTHS AND IT'S A GAME CHANGER!"
The next version of Logic will likely be a total rewrite from the last - probably borrowing a lot from Garageband's interface while leaving the professional plugin framework and stronger MIDI tools, amongst other things.
The next ableton will be an iteration. What you see from Ableton right now is what you will get in their next point release.
But if you are itching for a change right now, waiting always sucks and you may as well just jump into it.

Let's play Mario Kart or something...
Sweater is fun but i really don't see myself subscribing to it for years and years and years or even year singular
If its not F2P in 12 months I will be shocked
Out of curiosity why?
It had well over a million pre orders, it's not more buggy than other MMO releases. It has a ton of content, some new features, a lot of old features that just work. Star Wars.
Sweater?
I don think the traditional MMO model works anymore.
I don't agree with your opinion, sir. But I am willing to make several republic scum die to defend it.
The propaganda train is trying to say "Oh well it didn't change anything so it doesn't matter" and I am saying this is a concerted effort at solidifying these extrajudicial powers and it does matter and people should be upset, at the very least, that this has happened. Hopefully it will backfire and trigger a proper outrage.
I see there as being a few silver linings to this:
It's easier to repeal (or challenge in court) an explicit law than a set of powers scattered across several laws.
It brings the issue into the public eye. This is bad for the President but good for the country.
Part of making these powers explicit was that the new version of NDAA grants more power to the President to decide who should be detained, where previously the Pentagon had more of that power. This gives Obama added ability to get prisoners out of Guantanamo; now he needs to exercise that power.
I don't know that anybody here is saying "it didn't change anything so it doesn't matter." I suppose some right-wing hawks are saying that? The basic issue, at least from my vantage point, is that a lot of liberal hand-wringing makes it sound like this is some kind of Constitutional apocalypse, where a month ago we had a Bill of Rights and today we do not.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
Once you aren't making good money off of box sales (which TOR should probably do for a good while still) I can't see why you would not switch to a hybrid subscription/f2p model (assuming maximizing income is your only goal). You still get the people paying for subs who want to pay for subs, and those who don't play for free but probably end up giving you money for features anyway.

Took me like a year to get to level 60 in WoW anyway, and I see it will probably take a while to max out in SWEATER as well. If only just because I am not babby anymore and have several important stuffs to do that take up time.

I agree with Jerry's post on Monday though. My brain is filing this damn thing as single player. I'm looking for the "Save" option before I enter a conversation because I want to try out all the options!

So if I made a bill that read:
1) Imprison everybody named Bill, forever.
2) Cats are awesome.
Then the president would have to veto that cats are awesome when he vetoes that everyone named Bill should be thrown in prison?
If so that is RETARDED. Everyone would throw an objectively good thing on the same bill as their controversial opinion, and you would never ever get anywhere in politics.
The converse is letting the house vote on contested legislation and agreeing to a number of compromises and allowing the president to go "FUCK YOU, VETO'D" for everything that he isn't in love with.
Line item veto is great when your guy is president and literally the worst thing that has ever happened ever including the holocaust when some other guy is in there.

i don't think reading is inherently more rewarding or valuable as an act than playing video games
i think the argument could be made - video games have been shown to promote critical thought, problem-solving, math, spatial awareness, etc, while books clearly promote linguistic skills like comprehension, spelling, vocabulary, etc. along with exercise of imagination
and i think that someone saying "i really have to finish Twilight this week!" is not really laudable, nor is "I'm going to watch all the Harry Potter movies this weekend"
but i also think that video games, as a young medium that was born from and exists almost entirely within a non-intellectual, corporate framework, has many less instances of intellectually or culturally valuable content than film, literature, or other media; i don't think that it's at all evident that they are inherently less valuable in those ways
someone saying "I want to play [games x, y and z] because I want to understand their meaning for the medium" or whatever is totally laudable, but most people are not saying that
they are saying that they are fulfilling the obligation/compulsion to consume, and finding satisfaction therein

Yes! Exactly! This is exactly what happens in the US every single year when Congress is passing a budget.
That must be great!!!! :O
It's one of the big reasons our defense budget is so goddamn bloated.
A Congressperson can score cheap points with his or her constituency by adding some requisition for military shit to be built in his home state. If that rider only ends up in the House version of the bill and not the Senate, then it goes up to a Congressional committee where they negotiate using some dark sacrificial magic which of such riders remain in the bill sent up to the President and which do not.

The SWEATER thing is silly and needlessly obfuscating as far as I'm concerned. ToR is a nice quick acronym that pretty much everyone gets at this point, like WoW.
Apparently if you type /getdown in battle, it will keep interrupting the enemy targetting you. I've only tested it on "boss" type enemies like this guy and an NPC sniper in the nearby area.

let's say my doctor gives me a script for 30 adderall on march 1st
but i fill it on march 3rd because i was jerking my dicks or whatever
then let's say my doctor gives me a script for 30 adderall on april 1st
but i fill it on april 2nd
they won't let me fill it on april 2nd, saying i have to have at least 30 days between filling it
that doesn't make sense to me- it's thirty days since i COULD have filled it, right?
like, i still have the same supply for the same period
is the concern that i'm going to OD, or something?
it seems really silly
Well, as you discovered, it's X days from when you filled the last prescription, not from the date on the slip.
That said, I'm surprised that it's 30. Usually there's a little leeway if you want to refill your prescription a few days early. I think the standard in California is 25 days, IIRC.
As for why they do this, it's because Adderall is a Schedule II drug, which means it has a high propensity for abuse and a high risk of addiction. As matt said, they don't want you to sell it. They also don't want you to get into a cycle where you're taking it a little faster than you're supposed to and filling it on shorter and shorter intervals.

Let's hope that first contact is with a really hostile alien race, that also look ugly enough to not invoke sympathy.
You'll finally get to use all that military infrastructure.
Unfortunately, anything advanced enough to find and reach us, unless their method of conflict resolution differs amazingly from ours, is not going to be threatened by our weapons.
Like, they'd have to land and then start making outrageous demands and punching people or something.

Have you considered advertising your gravy on the propaganda train? We're very good at it.
Two slices of bread, one slice of cheese and one slice of turkey is not a sandwich, it is a suicide note.
It's a stretch you have to admit. -tor and-ter are pretty different.
More that you're going to sell it.

While a love good bread on a sandwich, if there is more bread than fillings, it's more pie than sandwich.
Dude. The level of polish on the stories is just amazing.
Yea 1 raid 1 half raid that is getting finished later this month.
and they have 3 difficulties
I will consider this if I need someone to deceive, inveigle, and obfuscate vis-a-vis gravy and its vehicular rail transport.

Turians?
People are being banned for using that so beware
yeah but i mean
couldn't i do that at any point?
i still can't possibly get any more than 60 pills between the dates of march 1st and april 30th
Careful with that dude.
That seems like a very probable ban should they notice it.
