It's not really "camping", but a decent tactic in Ravenholm is to pull zombies and then retreat to a chokepoint to kill them off in a space where their numbers become irrelevant.

Liquid cooling to cut Internet energy use
The energy needed to run the Internet and other cloud computing storage systems is estimated to represent around two percent of the world's total energy consumption.
"...the latest research suggests that this year alone those will consume 43 gigawatts of energy. It's the equivalent to around 90 medium-sized nuclear power stations."
We take for granted how big the Internet has become, but these numbers are just 'fricken amazing.

It's been awhile since I've thought about those posts.

Did I read the page on Cato the Elder wrong?
Ha! Yes. You're right.

Am I the only one who finds it funny how on TV, how people will go to crazy crazy lengths to show as much as they can of women chest except the nipple? Its a little silly.
They do it because it attracts viewers. And that's the way they make money.

Still it's almost as though they're afraid that the spawn of satan will come out of the nipple if its revealed.
Because indecency regulations exist?
Well that is exactly what they are afraid of 
You should read up on Nipplegate. What happened is this: The conservatives in the US have a lot of power and control over what goes into movies and on TV. And they hate anything related to sex being shown or talked about. Now over time the limits have been pushed back a long ways. But there are lines that still aren't crossed. So what you see is a lot of pushing against those lines to make them move.

Oh, Cut, I thought that was going to be about the Virginia Attorney General's attempt to cover up the nipple/boob on the Virginia state flag.

Isn't "sic semper tyrannis" what the guy who killed Lincoln said? They actually have that in their flag?
It was used way before him. Dude named Caesar heard it as he was bleeding out, for example. Just because one particular assassin (Booth, in this case) chooses to use it does not mean it becomes an invalid statement and one worthy of being displayed. Also, the seal for Virginia predates the Civil War by about... oh, four score and seven years.
