    Much like Iron Patriot's paint scheme

    It's just to make sure you know

    He is the Mandarin

    Except he isn't because wait a minute he made the Mandarin up a couple months ago. I get that he was obsessed with Chinese culture but that ain't make you no The Mandarin

    Ed also I had been assuming Neverwinter was a Neverwinter Nights sequel

    Ed2 what the fuck NWN is a D&D thing!?

    Ah, yeah. Neverwinter is one of the shared settings, like Planescape or the Forgotten Realms.

    There was a really early (possibly the first?) MMO called "Neverwinter Nights" released on AOL's service. It has a long history.

    i just remembered a fact...

    i have Dragonball: Evolution sitting in my bookshelf...

    I think my dad lent it to me... My dad has that disease... The one that makes you like terrible movies unironically.

    Should i irrevocably lose 85 minutes watching something that might remind me of my childhood and trample it savagely? Y/N

    It reminds me of every other generic MMO so far, but I haven't gotten very far so far.

    It is a cluster eff from start to end with no redeeming features

    They even fuck up the kamehameha

    It's an energy beam fired from the hands, how do you fuck that up, right?

    Also, I liked (IM3)
    Killian's dragon tattoos, rings, and general love of Chinese culture.

    I "made up" the name Malihin a few months ago. I can give it certain characteristics and then start calling myself that. How is that any different?

    No, he isn't The (Comic) Mandarin, but I am perfectly ok with him taking the name

    I got what it was there for, but c'mon.

    Neverwinter is a city in the Forgotten Realms D&D setting. Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Pools of Radiance, and Demon Stone are all in the same setting, but different locations within the setting.

    Dutch subtitles to IM3 chose not to translate the Mandorin to Dutch. Which is fortunate because mandarin oranges are eaten a lot over here, and would no doubt be everyones main association. Being identified as a soft peelable citrus fruit does little for your terrorist street cred.

    I would say so. Depends what you are using to manipulate it.

    Excel will shit itself. Something more specialist might be a little more graceful about dealing with it.

    I studied up by watching a video of incredibly hot portugese (?) dudes demonstrating how to wrap a toga. Naturally they started out in their tiny european underwear.

    For science.

    For some reason, a wave of nostalgia washed over me.

    I feel weird.

    Also i'm hungry and yet i am full.

    Why is my appetite so wonky?

    I was thinking of C++

    oh well, it was laziness extreme anyway. I can actually only use two or three float arrays 240 in length

    Excel's theoretical maximum numbers of rows and columns never really matter anyway, because it will thrash itself to death and fall over, taking the OS with it, long before they become an issue.

    I think I accidentally deleted my text message history with a friend

    My last icloud backup is from 2 days ago cuz I guess my wifi was off recently

    Is the only thing I can do = wipe my phone and then restore from iCloud?

    Ugh

    Not worth it I guess

    It shouldn't be so easy to accidentally delete all the texts I feel

    That would probably be fine, to be honest.

    You would want to break up whatever task you're trying to perform though, or use some kind of iterative method rather than loading the whole data set into memory at once.

    I mean (depending on the precision of the floats) it's big, but I wouldn't have thought it would be unmanageably vast.

    I only really want the whole damn thing because it's for an analysis project and tearing it apart later to dig out a number of interest will be annoying

    I suppose it'll be better to dump it all to a CSV. Excel would choke but I'm pretty dang sure Stata won't.
