Nope. They push the yeerks off of Earth, and then chase them out into space

The oldest system I have would be the NES. My brother received it sometime before I was born. I'm just holding onto it for him, though - it doesn't get played right now. I actually intend to clean it all up and retrobright it before sending it back to him... eventually... The oldest system I have that still gets occasional use would be my Gameboy Color, which I received, with Pokemon Red, for Christmas when I was 8 or 9. Unfortunately, I need to find a better plastic polish, to take some light scratches out of the lens, and until I do, it will remain disassembled... I've also been contemplating using the board for a complete boxypixel overhaul, but there's something about still having my full original GBC that I'm having a problem getting over...

If you read the article, it's pretty clear. Instead of the energy of the photons being used to heat the water molecules to state change, that energy is used to break the molecular bonds between small groups of water molecules, and those groups are small enough to then be picked up by the air and evaporate. This way, the energy contained in a photon is converting much more liquid water to water vapor than if that same amount of energy was actually used to excite the water molecules, as in a microwave.

I recently started The Bear and The Nightingale by Katherine Arden. Its the first book in a trilogy, and while I've read - and loved - this book, I haven't read the rest of the trilogy yet. I'm quite excited - my wife blitzed them and said they were very good.

I am but a humble traveling troubadour of Lower Noblesse. Or that is what I would have you believe. In truth, I am an information broker and spy for Steel Anne, the infamous forest bandit, and her band of Jolly Fellows from the Robbin Woods.

I assume this is Laurana from Dragonlance, but does anyone know why the Golden General is wearing all her upper body armor, boots and greaves, but no pants?

I think I shall boot Breath of the Wild back up, and see if I can't finish soon-ish. I got about half-way through during the Christmas/New Year's holiday break, but then got distracted by a restart of the Minecraft server I play on. :-P

I'm not familiar with Dragonbane - if it doesn't have PC ability nullification, how do "Monsters" deal with PC control abilities? Stunning Strike, Hold Monster, Hypnotic Pattern, etc, all need to be answered in some way, or even the biggest encounters can be trivialized.

Yes, and that's their goal. They don't want viable universities for the masses.

IDK. Most of the early games were actually pretty entertaining. I fairly recently played sorcerer's stone on the gbc, and it was still pretty fantastic.

I buy for myself only sporadically - most of my stuff comes from Christmas presents. It probably comes out to about $200 a year, maybe $300. Admittedly, if we lived closer to a LEGO store, it would probably be a fair bit more...
