>Hey guys, there's this awesome game I saw at PAX East called Deadrock Divide. It's basically a mix between X-COM and FTL and for some reason none of the major game blogs and news sites are covering it.
> >You have a ship and a crew and you explore the galaxy in a top down view. You go into space stations to buy/sell stuff, upgrade your ship and people, and grab missions. Then you go take your ship to different places to free colonies or whatever, sometimes your ship itself gets boarded by pirates sometimes you board theirs. > >This is where the XCOM style play comes in, when your ship gets boarded it's turn-based tactical combat on your ship; like in FTL, each room has a specific function that helps you in combat. > >You can also use mining equipment to mine asteroids. > >Anyway, I have nothing to do with the developer but I was really impressed with the game at PAX and their Kickstarter is really struggling right now. The guy I met at PAX was their lead artist and he was really nice and passionate about his work and this game. The art in the game is really nice, although graphically there's a lot of work to be done before it can be called a good looking game.

>My short bio: https://www.scribd.com/document/319188182/my-story Recently my husband seemed distant and I thought, as many wives do, that theproblem was another woman. I looked through his emails, his texts, his old phonesand finally an old laptop, from the time we met. Happily, I found no proof of anaffair, but in a file with my name on it that I found on the desktop - in it was a docnamed “candidate IOF guide” which caught my attention. Parts of it explained nothing and were just how to choose targets for recruiting into the Church, othersoutlined methods I suddenly knew had been used specifically on me by myhusband. This is why I am choosing to risk my life to out these people, who usethe broken, the sad and the desperate to further their own agenda. >This is my third try at this, apparently I deleted the first threads by mistake.

>First of all, I did try to find a more apropos subreddit than this one, since this place has mostly escaped the brunt of the recent protest wave to wash over the site, but I cannot find a better venue matching the feel of my question than here… > >I’ve been a long time user of online aggregator sites (low 6-digit /. ID, if that means anything to you) since they seem to have gotten most of the kinds of communities that once thrived on Usenet. Since “Eternal September,” however, it seems to me the fate of any online community is to thrive for a time, and then flame out spectacularly due to some economic or political fallout. I’m currently looking at Hacker News as the next site to migrate to, but this particular community is too acutely aware of the problem and has managed through policy to tightly limit publicity and topic focus to avoid growing too large, limiting its usefulness to me. I’ve also noticed that the various subreddits I’ve subscribed to over the years have gotten slightly “out of sync” with the surrounding culture at large, and I can no longer rely on Reddit as a sole form of current events anymore. I do understand more recent social media venues have taken up some of the slack, but my preferred form of communication online are posted medium-length messages, not the hyper-abbreviated “sound byte” like posts which are the current fad. > >Anyone else of you in this community have suggestions for alternate info feeds? While I plan to stay here as long as I can, 8+ years is a very long time by online standards, and it’s only a matter of time that another community migration takes place. Hacker News, Facebook, Twitter, et al just don’t cut it for me.

>TIL about Ivan Pigarev's "visceral" theory of sleep. Basically it states that sleep is required to switch the brain from processing of data from external sensors (eyes, ears etc.) to internal ones, like receptors in intestines, and do the adjustments accordingly. In his works he shows that if one stimulates e.g. the intestine of a sleeping animal it causes the response in visual cortex which is very similar to the response to flickers of light during the day, whilst there is no such response in waking state. He states that they conducted hundreds of experiments on animals in support of the view. > >This was completely new to me (which is to no surprise, I'm quite illiterate in neurophysiology) and I'm fascinated by the idea. The first thing I did is checked if his works are legit and if he has publications in respectable magazines, which he seem to have. He also doesn't look like a usual "science freak" which are plenty around here. However, I tried to google some popular articles in English about that but haven't found much. > >So I want to know if this view is known to Western scientists and if yes what is the common opinion on that?

On the one hand, people do need to know this is happening (whether or not this is an issue with Pushbullet itself is debatable - you can ask them during the AMA today) but the more attention it gets the more people who made a mistake using Pushbullet for these things will end up being punished because their sensitive details are posted for the world to see.

Last week 2/18/15 bravo told us that in the next community update they would tell us what would be getting patched and when the patch would roll out. Now if you look back at the past community updates and when they were posted thay have been between 14 and 9 days apart.

I just got back to the US yesterday, but I’ll return to Korea in time for the second week of Proleague. While I haven’t yet joined Prime, it’s my current goal to do so. It has always been my dream to join a Korean team and I will let you guys know as soon as it happens. > >In the meantime, I am no longer writing for Game Front nor will I be streaming during this next round of Proleague. My current training schedule leaves little room for anything else. Thanks to Game Front for everything they have done for me. While working with them, I discovered that I really love writing about StarCraft and I hope to start again when I have more time on my hands. > >Training in the Prime house has been amazing. The in-house practice games and competitive environment have been great for my development. I find myself now improving faster than I ever have before. Hopefully I have performed well enough in practice that you’ll see me soon in a booth in Proleague. > >Thank you to CatZ, Chuckie and my manager for helping me get to where I am today. Most importantly, thanks to all of my fans for your continued love and support. Please cheer for me and Prime in Round 2 of Proleague. 화이팅!

>Ever since I watched this video of a boxer getting motivated in the corner between rounds by his coach, it fascinated me. The focus of the boxer, the energy of the coach the belief that he had in him, you can see in both of their faces, just unreal... It gave me goosebumps. I really wanted to replicate that feeling by myself and I couldn’t just find some guy to shout at me every day so I decided to be that guy myself. The boxer and the coach. I started reading motivational books, printing motivational quotes and hanging them everywhere. Talking to myself in the mirror, repeating all those phrases, believing in myself. Every morning in the shower reading the quotes of my shower curtain getting hyped and ready for a new challenge. I started to be more confident, more enthusiastic about everything. I noticed the change in my attitude, it became more positive. I am just riding this thing and I recommend everyone just to try this and I guarantee you, you will see changes immediately. My point is surround yourself with positive thoughts and repeat them to yourself, some of you might think it’s lame but at some point I swear to god you will feel like shouting that stuff in public!
