Good guess, I had not thought of that one. But it's actually Starcraft from Blizzard Software.LostMormon wrote:Easy peasy, Supreme Commander!Corsair wrote:Video games on the Sabbath ("Nuclear launch detected" [bonus points if you can name that game])

Re: What are your hobbies?
dang! I was sure I had that one right. I didn't realize starcraft also had nukes, but I know supreme commander does, quite fun indeed. I'm going to have to get starcraft one of these days, if I only get one, which one would you recommend, is the one you linked to the best of the series?
Re: What are your hobbies?
The one I linked is the latest in the series. There is really only Starcraft 1 (released in 1998) with the Brood War Expansion (1999) and then the much more modern Starcraft 2 which came out in three releases (Wings of Liberty, Heart of the Swarm, Legacy of the Void). The original version can probably be found for quite cheap. The Starcraft 2 releases each told a continuing story so Wings of Liberty would be first followed by Swarm and then Legacy.LostMormon wrote:dang! I was sure I had that one right.

Re: What are your hobbies?
hobbies...
music (sing, flute, guitar, some piano - want to learn: banjo, mandolin, ukulele)
writing (poetry, long rambling missives, essays
reading (currently reading the outlander series by Diana Gabaldon)
discussing things of substance with like-minded individuals
discussing things with witty, intelligent people
people-watching (observational research in the human plight sounds better than creepy voyeuristic chick in the corner)
throwing a hell of a work shindig (unofficial party planner of my team)
taking classes at Ohio State University (for free even!) - I'm currently taking a class that has quickly become my all-time favorite - "gender, sex and power" - my first foray in academic feminism - I LOVE IT!!!!
crocheting - it's therapeutic and calming for me. it's how i would be able to make it through sacrament meeting. quietly crocheting all the stress away...
searching for great thrift store finds - i like finding beauty and usefulness in the things other people cast aside...
these are a few of my favorite things, but taking classes in addition to working full-time leaves me with little opportunity to pursue most of these anymore...

StarCraft is the game. What do you do that you would make WireShark a hobby? I moved from Route/Switch to network security back in June. Loads of fun.
As for hobbies:
Reading
Crossfit
Video games
History - Napoleonic era, American Civil War, World War I and 2
Wargaming miniatures and board games
travel

I am sure there are more, but I can't remember.

I do network security for a large company. Specifically, I look at incoming consumer web traffic looking for scans and exploits. I see a lot of traffic and it is quite interesting to me.Evil_Bert wrote:StarCraft is the game. What do you do that you would make WireShark a hobby?

Yep, that pretty much fills any and all available time. Sometimes, it fills too much time. Like right now, when I should be working on one of these things...

Re: What are your hobbies?
I am watching it on STARZ. I LOVE IT. I first got into it in a roundabout way of crochet. i had a shop on etsy where i sold some of the scarves and stuff that i make. one of my customers told me how much she loved my stuff because it reminded her of some of the things that claire wears on outlander. i had never heard of outlander till then. so i checked out some stills from the show to see what my customer was talking about. loved what i saw, found out there was a book series and that was all it took. i'm hooked (crochet pun only slightly intended). i can't wait till season 3 starts. and i started following diana gabaldon on facebook and it's wonderful because she posts snippets of the new book that she's currently writing... she is a fabulous writer...sirensong wrote:

That's awesome! The books-aside from being amazing- really helped me through my faith transition. STARZ is doing an excellent job taking it from page to screen. It's honestly one of the best book to screen adaptations I've ever seen. Season 3 is going to be epic! I love reading Diana's daily lines on her Facebook page. She really cares about her readers.
I'm so happy I found another Outlander fan on NOM!

Re: What are your hobbies?
Yes! I also like to read historical non-fiction, good biography, anything that can transport me to another place and time. And I'm a huge classics fan, Jane Austen, Dickens, the Brontes, Thomas Hardy. No one ever wants to read the books that I recommend.Fifi de la Vergne wrote:Reading, especially historical fiction, really gritty, character-driven mysteries, some fantasy, and history -- especially 20th century and American Civil War, or British if it's about the Tudors or the Plantaganets
I tried quilting once or twice and have decided that I'm a confirmed cross-stitcher, with some Hardanger and canvaswork on the side.
And I'm a public radio nerd. I fangirled when I saw the YouthRadio building on a trip to Oakland. Seriously in need of help here.
