    Revolution

    This episode was again quite blah for me, with too much unrealistic stuff and too many dumb decisions. I think I'm done, disappointingly.

    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    There were so many terrible RTD episodes that I often had to push myself through to continuing with the show. While there have been plenty of things that were nonsensical in Moffat eps, none of them have felt out-and-out bad to me.

    GLEE #70: The Break-Up

    Forgot to say that this one was also extremely good. Powerful, moving, really well done. Again, the directing and editing were truly outstanding. Those two are enough to make me glad I'm still watching.

    GLEE #70: The Break-Up

    Really, really liked this. The perfect song, decent performance, and excellent directing & editing. Honestly, the first time I've really liked something in Glee in many, many episodes.

    Looking for Casino Steam ship floor maps

    I think I found what you're looking for by searching Google Images for riverboat floor plan, with some slightly different results using riverboat floorplan.

    Revolution

    The lack of sewage disposal and treatment in highly-populated areas would be a massive killer. When you flush your toilet it all seems so effortless and automatic, but every bit of high-density living — apartments, condos, and even most modern neighborhoods of tightly-packed houses — would...

    Happy to help. I've run into this kind of problem before, where if I'd only known the right term to search for, I would have been set.

    dice roller ya know... for physical Dice! no APPS!

    You're looking for a dice tray. Lots of great options with a Google search, once you know the right term.

    Last Resort

    I agree that it was tight, had great tension, and I liked a lot of the characters. One of the very best pilots in some time.

    Agreed that we can but disagree. :)

    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    Not as I understand your argument. What I read you saying is that he is the master of time and therefor should have the very best time machine. I'm saying that "best" doesn't necessarily mean "travels to times another machine can't", that the bracelet is the laser scalpel, utterly the best for...

    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    I think it's the question that matters, yeah, based on your complaints. If it was a better time machine but couldn't do everything else the Doctor wanted it to, would that somehow make him less of a Lord of Time and Space? If I was the world's best brain surgeon and there was a laser scalpel...

    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    But is it a better device for The Doctor? That's really the question, isn't it?

    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    Not a new rule: River Song insisted that The Doctor must not read her diary due to "spoilers", that doing so will lock them in. It's a Moffat thing, yes, but it's four years old.

    Revolution

    You can push-start a manual transmission diesel vehicle without any electricity. However, I can tell you from experience that it behooves you to make sure you always park on a hill, pointed downward. :D However, finding any real quantities of non-degraded diesel fuel 15 years after a...

    Revolution

    Second episode SPOILERS So, apparently we haven't lost Elizabeth Mitchell, hooray! Plenty of post-apocalyptic nonsense, though it didn't bother me quite as much this time. And unsurprisingly, the "revolution" theme does indeed seem to be at play.

    Mac equivalent to windows fraps.

    There are many options. The completely free option is already on your Mac: QuickTime Player. You can record the entire screen or just a portion of it. See Mac 101: QuickTime Player about halfway down the page. If you're doing something more professional like a screencast, where you might want...

    Revolution

    I think that sounds, though I suspect from the show's title that a big part of the plot will be about forming a group to overthrow the current dictator.

    Revolution

    The new-ish clothes aren't that much of an issue to me, since it's probably safe to assume that 1/2 to 3/4 of humanity has already died off. Stuff sitting in drawers and closets of non-burnt-down houses can last a really long time.
