I see your tactic - put enough stuff around it so you stop feeling its flavour.
 
@badp Like I said, I had it by itself.
But hey, I love raw meat.
I eat my steaks rare. Medium rare at the most.
You'll probably want to stay away from filet americain too then, or carpaccio.
 
Eh. I also eat rare meat, like fiorentina.
but that thing... it's slimy
 
@badp Which is?
A quick Google leads me to believe you eat football players rare.
 
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiorentina
sigh
 
ACF Fiorentina, commonly referred to as simply Fiorentina, is a professional Italian football club from Florence, Tuscany. Founded by a merger in 1926, Fiorentina have played at the top level of Italian football for the majority of their existence; only four clubs have played in more Serie A seasons. Fiorentina have won two Italian Championships, in 1955–56 and again in 1968–69, as well as winning six Coppa Italia trophies and one Italian Super Cup. On the European stage Fiorentina won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1960–61 and lost the final one year later, they finished runners-up in t...
 
10:04 PM
The T-bone and Porterhouse are steaks of beef cut from the short loin and including a T-shaped bone with meat on each side: the larger is a strip steak and the smaller a tenderloin steak. Porterhouse steaks are cut from the rear end of the short loin and include more tenderloin, while T-bone steaks are cut from farther forward and contain less. In British usage, followed in Commonwealth countries (except Canada), only the strip loin side is called the porterhouse, and the tenderloin side is called the fillet. There is little agreement among experts on how large the tenderloin must be...
 
Say T-Bone then...
 
La bistecca alla fiorentina è un taglio di carne di vitellone o di scottona che, unito alla specifica preparazione, ne fa uno dei piatti più conosciuti della cucina toscana. Si tratta di un taglio alto comprensivo dell'osso, da cuocersi al sangue sulla brace o sulla griglia. Definizione La bistecca alla fiorentina si ottiene dal taglio dalla lombata (la parte in corrispondenza alle vertebre lombari, la metà della schiena dalla parte della coda) del vitellone di razza chianina: ha nel mezzo l'osso a forma di "T" – gli inglesi infatti la chiamano T-bone steak – con il filetto da una par...
 
There's a difference between rare and raw though.
 
It's more specific than T-bone steak :P
Yes. You said rare.
 
But yeah, don't try filet americain then
 
10:06 PM
Is it sold together with other sliced... er... pottage?
 
I must say, I loved tartare when I first had it. I didn't even know it was raw when I ordered it.

Q: How to get "It's Truly Random!" achievement on LEGO Universe

PeterDCWhen playing LEGO Universe, there is an achievement called "It''s Truly Random!", which one must roll a six on "the LEGO die" one hundred times (in a row?) to get. This definition is very vague and leaves me with little to no idea of how to actually get this achievement. Must I possibly make a ...

Q: How to kill a giant

jwaddellI've seen and heard a lot of references to how powerful the giants are in Skyrim (e.g. Penny Arcade). How do you go about killing a giant? I assume if you level up your character enough, eventually you'll be able to fight one, but is there another way?

Q: Do SAM turrets add streak points?

RapidaIn modern warfare 3 you can now earn streak points for taking out enemy aircraft. Does the aircraft a SAM turret takes out count for streaks?

 
10:28 PM
@ArdaXi I love that you can get meat so much rarer here
Some places in NY won't even let you order anything under medium because of health risk reasons
 
Wow.
 
Yeah, it sucks
I <3 rare
 
Filet americain is quite popular here.
 
Which I find ironic because I've never seen anything like it in the US
 
All these skyrim questions bug me, because they remind me I don't have the game yet
 
10:29 PM
It doesn't mean American.
I forgot where the name came from.
 
Great the first christmas ads have started.
 
What.
Please no.
 
Wiki has nothing, re: name origin
 
Luckily we Dutchies get to suffer through Sinterklaas first.
 
Well Argos has started.
 
10:35 PM
@RonanForman As in Toronto Argos?
 
Also I saw an adver for a show saying "Is there any truth behind britains ghosts?" and I though that'll be a short show.
@Simon As in Argos that think shopping should be slower and confusing.
 
Ah :P
 
10:48 PM
So... In StarCraft II: They nerfed Ghost's EMP by 25% and made a ton of upgrades cheaper for Protoss. TvP late game is going to be though, I guess they want to put pressure on the meta game by forcing Terran to pressure early, pressure often...
 
@TomWijsman I think they are just trying to decrease the advantage that terran has over protoss early game
 
@Wipqozn The updates still require time...
 
Terran has the advantage early game in TvP, although late game that advantage shifts to protoss I find
 
+1 is unaffected in cost, so it's certainly not aimed at the early game I think.
 
@TomWijsman oh, true
didn't notice that
 
10:50 PM
Hmm, they want those advantages be equal.. Makes sense...
Perhaps Terran now has to anticipate when to get Ghosts out, so he has the extra 25% out.
 
Oh wow, @Wipqozn, because the GW Halloween finale was during the big NE power outage, they've put Festival Hat traders in LA and Kamadan so people can trade Halloween consumables for the festival hats in case they missed it.
ArenaNet's so awesome
 
Hmm, a medivac drop to take out the pylon powering the Forge(s) is an option.
Or the Forge itself, I don't know the HPs out of my head.
 
@FallenAngelEyes that's awesome
 
Because you can expect cannons to be in the mineral line. And this way you prevent him adding cannons at the natural and drop there again. Well, perhaps I'm overthinking this. But it really feels like a nerf from the Terran side...

11:09 PM
Oh my, doing hold position on an unit makes it lose aggro. o_O
 
11:30 PM
@TomWijsman wait, what? Do you mean that it stops attack, or that it will stop being attacked?

Q: Identifying an 80's arcade side scroller

PeterISSTrying to find the name of an arcade game I used to play when the fair came to town, around '84-'86 I would guess. It was a co-op side scroller with a space/sci-fi theme where the players each controlled their own ship. The most distinctive thing I can remember about it was you could collect a ...
