Zero Hour!

Zero Hour! is a 1957 movie with a screenplay written by Arthur Hailey. It starred Dana Andrews, Linda Darnell and Sterling Hayden and was released by Paramount Pictures. Zero Hour! was an adaptation of Hailey's 1956 Canadian Broadcasting Corporation play Flight into Danger. Hailey also co-wrote a novel with John Castle based on the same premise, titled Flight Into Danger: Runway Zero-Eight (1958). Zero Hour! was used as the basis for the 1980 parody film Airplane!. Because Zero Hour! was owned at the time by Paramount, the makers of Airplane!, also a Paramount picture, were able to use ...

@MBraedley How much free space do you have on that SSD?

Decency

@fbueckert Your interpretation is simply not reality, and again, your lack of SC understanding is showing. I provided links to replays because it's pretty much impossible to emulate a build just from text; there are way too many crucial subtleties. Every build order I've derived is through replays and VOD's. The build order is essentially just a post-it note reminding you of what you have to do. You can't bake a cake with a grocery list- you need detailed instructions. Thus, replays are superior.

Sterno

Also, an oven.

MBraedley

@LessPop_MoreFizz More than enough. Definitely more than what I have on my work machine. In any case, most of my games (everything Steam) is installed to a WD 1TB Black drive. D3 is installed to the SSD, but that's only because I was forced to, and it too requires a restart

Why is depreciation an expense?

That doesn't make any sense.

LessPop_MoreFizz

Depreciation is calculated as an expense when determining total cost of ownership over a time period vs. a lease typically.

There's an assumption that the asset has some value for which you will sell it on the back end and recoup some of the overall cost. That amount falls as the value of the asset decreases, representing an 'expense'.

MBraedley

@Ullallulloo It's also because the blue book value and accounting book value differ, although for tax purposes, you're only using the accounting book value

I'm looking for a game, "i dont want to post a question, because I have no pics".

It was a Lego game

on the pc

The first lego game had a guy hopping in like a grey lego cube area. There were lasers, jump pads, and everythign. Reminded me something like lemmings.

Second game was a puzzle game similar to Electric box. But it was in 3D

Also, lego, btw. You would combine pieces together to form "lego" creatures, that would serve different tasks ( i remember a duck, a car, not much else).

Also, side note, unrelated, what is the soundtrack (main theme) of the flash game Electric Box? I've been searching everywhere. The Newgrounds site references a "Psydom Records", but google has yet to reveal anything.

youtube.com/watch?v=q58wtCZukU4 here's the theme

badp

@Retrosaur Perchance it is Electric Box?

Retrosaur

09:37

Sorry, I worded it badly. It's a 3 part question:

a) Lego game kind of like lemmings, but only one character to advance to next level

b) Lego game similar to Electric Box puzzle mechanics. Different lego characters (duck, person, car, fan, etc.) server different purposes.

c) Electric Box 1's soundtrack. Youtube links to soundtrack. It's not Elastic Box (sounds somewhat funny :D)

Oak

Since you know these two games use the LEGO trademark, you might find this list useful.

Especially if you have a year range

Retrosaur

Well, i remember playing them from 2000-2005ish elementary schoolish

I can't seem to find the game I'm looking for on the list. It's hard to say. I remember what the game looks like, I just don't know where to get any images of it, but I know what it looks like.

Also, I think it came through a CD.

Oh yeah, not tied to any "film" franchise (ie harry potter, star wars, indiana jones, etc

I think it was so old, and maybe obscure, that maybe most kids at that age didnt play it (they were all playing Runescape and MapleStory) and neopets

Okay, as part of question 1, I remember some items. for example, there were these furnaces (imagine a box, lower 2/3 has a flame symbol in the center)

on the top, it was turn on and off

if you stepped on to the furnace while it was on (heat pad, whatever), you had to retry level.

there were also these yellow and black boxes, similar to the furnaces, but they would spring you in the air if you jumped on them.

Game was entirely 2d, (3dish perspective)

puzzle/platformer hybrid

it's really hard to explain, sorry if this looks like a jumbled mess (it is)

At the moment I am scouring googleimages in vain, searching for anything that looks remotely familiar.

One last thing. I remember playing these games around the time I got some other Lego game with a villain called brickster and some guy delivering pizza.

Although Startup Repair does seem to be doing something, though it's been stuck for quite a while

Ooooh I've got through to 'configuring Windows Updates', this is progress

@GrayStoat Apparently SE shifted towards empowering community-ran promotions rather than running promotion themselves

which brings me to the point, if you want to hype up some game's release with some contestin' it's now a good idea to propose it on meta

This is really the best synopsis of the McAfee story yet. Most of it is in his own words. Holy shit this guy is nuts.

> In all honesty, a first time user, or a user on a large dose, when presented with food, will simply figure out a way to include it in the ongoing sex play with their partner. If alone, they will figure out a way to fuck it, or shove it up their rectum. This is not a joke. Everything on the Tan becomes a sex partner or a sex aid. If only visually. I will not, anymore, let anyone on Tan be alone with my dogs for example. (I have 14 dogs).

Gaaaaaaah

> He’s convinced that, while he’s away from his compound, the police will plant incriminating evidence unrelated to Faull’s murder. “The police have been to my house seven times,” he said. “I expect them to uncover a cache of fully automatic weapons, four tons of cocaine.
