Another kindle question. The DX has a much larger screen. I know it's heavier but does a bigger screen make for a better reading experience? -- nm - ceregon Feb 7, 09:15 5
- Do not get a DX. -- nm - Ender Feb 7, 09:29
- I have a dx. next one I get will be smaller. the weight's not really annoying, I'd just prefer a smaller one. -- nm - mafic Feb 7, 09:28 1
  - why would you prefer a smaller one? -- nm - ceregon Feb 7, 09:29

        right at the southern end -- nm - znufrii Feb 7, 09:25
        
        yep. -- nm - Diva Feb 7, 09:25 1
        
        then it's a good place to go. -- nm - loosilu Feb 7, 09:26
      - "premium" open bar! Yay! I should bring JackDawson as my +1. I'll never get to go again. -- nm - Mop (194 lbs) Feb 7, 09:21

  - [deleted]

- ummm, can I take her body instead then and use it, in other ways? -- nm - Jovian Feb 7, 09:06

[deleted] 30

  - [deleted] 21

        Really? Hmm. I had been sorta avoiding that one. Good to know. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:13 11
        
        If you do them all, you get a one point boost for every skill. -- nm - Reagen Feb 7, 09:18

        after I do ALL the Devlin Malloy jobs and take over the thieves guild I'll do that one. -- nm - Remlik Feb 7, 09:14 8
        
        Yeah, it is next. Just went to Solitude for my first time. I think I want a house there. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:15 7
        
        that house is huge, and very nice, and expensive but - tRuMaN Feb 7, 09:17 6
        
        but Solitude has an archery shop. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 09:30
        
        Hmmm. Thanks. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:18 4
        
        here is the house details. -- (link) - tRuMaN Feb 7, 09:20 3
        
        Question: Can things be *stolen* from your house? That message abouty containers there makes me wonder. - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:30 2
        
        From what I know about the Elder Scrolls, no one steals from you. -- nm - Reagen Feb 7, 09:32 1
        
        Thanks. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:40
- I couldn't even do the 1st one where I have to raise a Ward shield. -- nm - Remlik Feb 7, 09:01 5
  - *laughs* -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:03 3
    - I have the lesser ward it just doesn't last long enough. - Remlik Feb 7, 09:10 2
      - perhaps you need to take a potion first, then hope it wears off after 4 to 6 hours... -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 7, 09:11 1
        
        it's probably a blue potion -- nm - Remlik Feb 7, 09:11
  - cool thing is, that first one is random - everyone gets a different spell to prove (spoil) - decline Feb 7, 09:03
- Yeah, that is one I left unfinished (for now). -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:00
How did a guy with a bow and arrow get put with "Earth's mightiest heroes" anyway? -- nm - Reagen Feb 7, 08:59 25
- The Ultimates leveraged him better. He's like an anti-Bullseye. Can kill you with a fingernail clipping. -- nm - Mop (194 lbs) Feb 7, 09:08 1
  - One of 4 books! -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:09
- truthfully the team needed Ant-Man and Wasp over Black Widow -- nm - Jovian Feb 7, 09:05 3
  - I was surprised they didn't incorporate Ant-Man ala the way he's written in Ultimates. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 7, 09:06 2
    - mass appeal. Do non-comic book fans want to see a guy in an Ant suit - decline Feb 7, 09:09
    - *cries* -- nm - Nathan Fillion Feb 7, 09:08
- He can't miss. Green Arrow is more interesting, but still a second tier hero that has no business on a team with the all-stars. -- nm - TWuG Feb 7, 09:02
- It is more than that. Think Bullseye. He can *see* how to physically do/hit/ whatever he needs to. Plus he can physically do whatever moves he needs. - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:02 1
  - The real question is Black Widow. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:03
- Red Shirt... -- nm - decline Feb 7, 09:01 2
  - He is actually their tactical side. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:04 1
    - and their witty comment side -- nm - Jovian Feb 7, 09:06
- bah, if anyone was out of place in that circle, it was Black Widow..... - groiny Feb 7, 09:01 7
  - I was about to ask who the chick with the gun was. - Krusty Feb 7, 09:10 1
    - You didn't see Ironman 2? -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:14
  - Yeah, at least giver her those stings. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:08
  - agreed -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 7, 09:07
  - this -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:04
  - I am not a fan of the comics at all, but I did notice that in the trailer - amoxy Feb 7, 09:03
  - and big boobies -- nm - decline Feb 7, 09:01
- Have seen the size of his arrow? -- nm - CrankYanker Feb 7, 09:00 1
  - ^you^ -- nm - CrankYanker Feb 7, 09:01
- he's a really good shot. and they needed a decoy. -- nm - sycor Feb 7, 09:00 2
  - plus he has "special" arrows. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 09:01 1
    - Not to the extent of Green Arrow, though. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 7, 09:06
