This is still my go to game. Runs reasonably well under Wine on my old desktop system I built around 2006. I'll check out DOTA2 when I get around to rebuilding my system in the next year or two, but I have other priorities right now.
In this day and age, there is no need to go to war with an entire nation to remove in inhumane and oppressive regime.
Go to war with the leaders and only the leaders. The U.N. needs a tactical and surgical response. Use intelligence, snipers, spies, drones, DNA biological agents, laser-equipped frogs,
They'll eventually lose their nerve.
While we're going down that line of thought, granting me absolute authority over the nation could also prevent 9/11.
curious, how far down do skyscraper footings go?
Cue The Matrix parallels.
True, stories like this, and those related to my crack-smoking mayor, give me a reason to get up each morning.
FYI, regardless of what parents have been telling their kids for decades, most people actually sit too far away from their TVs to enjoy the optimal immersive visual experience

Same place the chem-ag fertilizers get it from - the soil. Who fertilizes the forests?
The parent poster is referring to plants known to be nutrient accumulators. They cycle nutrients from the soil into their leaves, making them available to other plants as they die off.
Yeah, "The Qatar plant—which is supported by Qatari fertilizer companies Yara International and Qafco"
If one really wants to discuss the possibilities behind "Greening the Dessert", Geoff Lawton is blazing a far more promising path:
Not to mention the queen is far too op. She needs to be nerfed to balance the game. I'm sick and tired of getting demolished by queen pickers. NoobS!
I resemble this remark, but I don't think I'm the target audience of these graphic card vendors. The only game I currently play is DOTA on the Warcraft III engine, under wine on Linux Mint 14 on an AMD64 system I assembled around 2005 that includes a Radeon 9500 or 9600.
I don't meet the system requirements for DOTA2 on Steam, so I'm guess I need to upgrade some time in the next couple of years.
This thinking big is fun, let me try.
Build a train track that orbits the earth. Build a huge tower that functions as an elevator. The top of the elevator is a train station. Once clear of the atmosphere, power up the train until it reaches orbital velocity.
IT CAN BE DONE!
Coding is more like writing a book than building a car. There is little reason to enforce a schedule and central location on everyone.
In the end, it's all about your ability to deliver - that's what determines your worth, so it should be up to each individual to determine what works best for them, as far as schedule and location.
I'd mod you up if I had points to give. Rocket stoves and rocket mass heaters are the most promising developments in clean, high efficiency and low-cost heating.
