Zoom Rabbit Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Say, what does it mean if your middle name is Oliver? If it means you're short, wear glasses and have a lot of books, then I certainly fit the name.
mattig89ch Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Zoom, those apps are on the google play store. But, when I saw the permissions they were asking for, my paranoia kicked in. Why does a tricorder app need my gps location, access to my contacts, the ability to record voices and take pictures, and the ability to determine whos calling me? Edlib, have you tried turning it off and on again? But, in all seriousness, are you 100% sure the video connections are seated correctly? Then, are you sure the sound board is looking at the correct video output port? Just because they only made it with one output port, doesn't mean the software wasn't made to run on multiple sound boards, and can (In theory) use those various sound boards video outputs.

Why does a tricorder app need my gps location, access to my contacts, the ability to record voices and take pictures, and the ability to determine whos calling me? Well, a tricorder needs to know your location so it can coordinate with the ship's computer for precise site to site transporter routing, it needs to know your contacts so the predictive personality algorithms can build a cohesive picture of your 'real life' that it can use to help with scheduling and reminders, it needs to record sound and visual data because that's what a tricorder does, and it needs control of your communications data so it can translate indigenous alien cellular mediums into Starfleet Standard for use on your human built device. I don't know how your machine is configured, but on my iPad I can deny the app access to outside data. All at my discretion. I am an Oliver, you know.
mattig89ch Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Wait, didn't james earl jones die a while back?
Keyan Farlander Posted August 28, 2015 Author Posted August 28, 2015 James Earl Jones is still alive.
Zoom Rabbit Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 He's sitting right here with me. We're making duck sausage and drinking jägermeister. The fires out here are producing red and orange moon effects. I call it a war moon and sit on the front step of my house with a shotgun.
Rogue15 Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 payday bitches! got a 24 pack of yuengling for tonight. drinking and playing video games.
K_Kinnison Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Getting a credit booster today for warframe and going to do some farming. Been "In game" for about 4 days and real time 3 weeks gone through 3 million credits easy. Need to create a buffer that has been slowing me down a bit.
mattig89ch Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Going to have to Finish Shadow Run HongKong Tonight. No more side missions to do. I've never been able to bring myself to play a Shadow Run game more then one full play through, but I've never regretted spending money on them either. Its weird, I know.
acdcfanbill Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Going to have to Finish Shadow Run HongKong Tonight. No more side missions to do. I've never been able to bring myself to play a Shadow Run game more then one full play through, but I've never regretted spending money on them either. Its weird, I know. It took me 3 months and 2-300 hours to go through Witcher 3. I finished right before NG+ game out, but I'm a bit burned out to start a new one again, so I understand how you feel about playing through RPG's only once.
Keyan Farlander Posted August 30, 2015 Author Posted August 30, 2015 I think I may finally be approaching a state of health.
mattig89ch Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 A state of health? What does that mean? Finally beat shadowrun hong kong. Solid bit of gaming right there. But I'm sad, not sure I can go through it once more. But dammit, I want to try! School stars tuesday, *sigh*. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I don't want to go to school. I just want to be done already.
Keyan Farlander Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 A state of health? What does that mean? It means not being sick. Which would be nice.
Rogue15 Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 got my girlfriend to play star wars galaxies emu with me. had a great weekend...
Rogue15 Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 added 2 courses to my mondays and fridays. first aid class at 8am, and last class is a psychology class...theories and personality
edlib Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Longest day of my life at work today. What a complete nightmare. An absolute horror show. I start my vacation in less than 5 days. Nowhere near fast enough.
Zoom Rabbit Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Only day off this week. New cook got fired, newer cook not yet up to speed...the boss is off feeding wildland firefighters, and the kitchen manager who's been filling in (the comfy chair in the office, that is) is going away to get MARRIED for several days. Kitchen needs deep cleaning, and the staff is already burned out from carrying the cook they just got rid of. No vacation. So I think I'll make a fresh marinara to go with Italian meatballs for a sandwich tomorrow. I'll make the meatballs with hamburger and sausage, with ground walnuts for authentic old world flavor. I have fresh rosemary growing out back. I call it stepping up to the plate. How else are we ever going to outdo the Chinese...?
edlib Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Those were at Boston City Hall recently... but I missed it. They are supposed to go on permanent display in Salem though... so maybe I can still see one in person.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Meh. This is life at this moment. Nothing terrible is happening and nothing super exciting. Meh. I'm oddly content with this.
Rogue15 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 long ****ing day. first aid class is awesome. personalities class is awesome. think i made a good trade. i'll get first aid and cpr certified through the first aid class. long quiet day at work, got home chilled with the girlfriend, watched TWD season 1 finale. i think i fell in love with her. i even said to her that i loved her. i fall fast and furious. oh well what's the worst that can happen? who wants to live forever? l o l.

Keyan Farlander Posted September 1, 2015 Author Posted September 1, 2015 Yes, I'm definitely over my illness and feeling better. Don't get me wrong, though - I still hate everything.
