[META][RFC] Updating the current "now" to 2022 |

Since Mal started it with http://drunkardswalkforums.yuku.com/sre ... -Air-Force]the VVS retcon/update...
I've pushed the Senshi forward to 2022. Tanith decided against standing for re-election, retiring to Luna to resume social work. They elected a war hero to take her place - Sailor Atalantae became Serenity II, and one of her first orders was to resume construction of the two Hornblowers that were mothballed in drydock since the end of the Boskone War. Tai Angmeng took over as leader of the A-Team, while Sailor Atalantae's sister filled her spot on that team.
If anybody has any objections to this, we can re-update the FenWiki with something else.
Next up (from me) - the Stellvians. As soon as I decide which company or companies Noah's going to buy out.

For anyone who has the PC version of Just Cause 2, there's a http://www.jc-mp.com/]multiplayer mod that is running a beta test this weekend. It's as utterly insane as you might think. Last testing weekend there were at peak 1300+ players running around Panau blowing everything in sight up. Come join the total mayhem!

[META] Waving-up Eggs (no omelets) |

We know handwavium can make non-living material into living material...
I understand there are watermelons sold labelled as "Godzilla Eggs"...

If you make-up handwavium with dissolved videos, manga, movie posters...
Then soak the 'egg'...
Do you think a thermal vent on an active volcano would make a good hatchery? [grin]
Would Atomic Radiation be required? [grin]
(I'm thinking the original Gojira here, not the modern monstrosity.)

I've finally got around to reading At All Costs, and noticed one of the Star Knight class battlecruisers (the hottest new thing ca book 2 or 3 but dreadfully outdated 'now') is named "Star Ranger." Coincidence, or is our SR frequent enough to the Baen forums to be a fandom nod, I wonder?
edit: slag it, how do I get a two word tag without them running together or being split into two tags?

For all you Verizon customers out there... |

I've recently started training as a Verizon Technical Support Representative through KGB USA (formerly known as Infonxx).
Now, unfortuantely, I'm not troubleshooting for internet. I'm handling plain, ordinary phone service, however... I have every intention of moving into the FiOS side of the house as soon as they'll let me. (That may be pretty soon, given how they're hiring left and right.)
Once I do get there... I'll be more than happy to help out any Verizon FiOS customers. Just don't expect me to divulge anything that isn't publicly available knowledge. I will say this: public utility commissions on the East Coast play a real mean game and sometimes demand some pretty damn odd things.

So, once upon a time there was a Macross fanfic titled "Legend of Megaroad", and it was pretty good.
Something happened to the author while he was writing Book 2, and he vanished. (Word has it he died.)
FFNet has up through ch. 19, but rumor tells me that the author had posted up through chapter 25 of book 2 to his personal site.
Does anyone have copies of this saved anywhere, by any chance?

If you're interested, go here and watch before it gets pulled down!

http://www.gogoanime.com/uchuu-senkan-y ... -episode-5
http://www.gogoanime.com/uchuu-senkan-y ... -episode-6
I was warned that
Quote:"You'll have to navigate pop-ups and ads, but it does
work. Avoid the "download-start now" buttons (DON'T push them) and wait
for the episode to load."
However I found that with ad-block and no-script it worked just fine and no pop-ups appeared, though YMMV of course. Just a heads up about that.
Quote:When the screen says "watch high quality & fast streaming after the ads", hit the arrow, sit through an obligatory 15-second ad, and it hasshins!
You may have to let it buffer a bit to start. Anyway, the episodes get
thumbs-up -- robot tanks really are robot tanks (intentional gag?),
Makoto is a sweetie with a pervy mind, a small (maybe false) hint of a
romance/jealousy triangle, planet Gamilas looks incredible, and Yamamoto-chan (the fighter pilot)
is a badass. Joe Bob says check it out!
Just finished watching #3, which includes the Warp Test and the Floating Continent battle at Jupiter. AWESOME.

So, on July 31, my girlfriend, the forensic entomologist, got her first real job at West Virginia University. Which is, approximately 1300 miles from where she is right now. So, next week, we're moving her to Morgantown (just south of the Pennsylvania border, about 80 miles from Pittsburgh). I'll be out of pocket for a week, so you guys have fun without me.
And, apparently, since I'm crazy about this woman, I'm going to move to Morgantown too. Not sure when, but it'll be no later than the end of October, because that's when my lease is up. If a job offer comes before then, then that's when I'll go, but I will be going no matter what the case.
Interesting, indeed. Now, if I could just get the lizard brain to stop panicking, everything would be golden.
