Unfortunately, it seems they left out dual-wielding in the Apple II version. Off to greener pastures, I guess.

Why in the world would Fallout go RTS?

Because RTS is awesome, that's why. A RTS with RPG elements would be fantastic. That way you wouldn't have that clunky companion system.

How easy has it been to teach yourself so far? I was thinking about trying

All in all, it's possible but it takes patience and dedication. It's not hard in the sense that if you devote enough time and do it right, you will learn things sequentially. Now, if you want to learn quickly, you will need to use a guide of some sort and have at least a cursory familiarity with any prerequisite knowledge.
To illustrate, let's say you want to start out modding games. To get any further than merely changing variables and images around, you'll probably need to know how structs, classes, and functions work. Game engines are also very heavy on pointers, so that will be a prerequisite as well.
Not to discourage you from jumping right in, of course. The preliminaries shouldn't take too long, just make sure you have Google nearby and do a few exercises which help you memorize that knowledge.

All in all, it's a very enjoyable and rewarding thing to learn, and will help you develop many transferable skills. I would recommend that you get a C++ book or find a good C++ tutorial site and use it to look up any concepts you are unfamiliar with when they are mentioned in whatever game programming tutorial you are reading.

By the way, I'm at the point where I create code which creates basic models and custom shaders.

1 Package chopped lettuce with cabbage and carrot - 8 oz
1 pack of guacamole (I prefer "Wholly Guacamole") - 7 oz, only one "bag" in regular container. No 100 cal packs
1 quart fresh blueberries
18 oz salsa - I use Marketside Black Bean And Corn Mild Salsa, I would strongly recommend using a similar type if making substitutions. I also could not see a medium or spicy salsa working with the blueberries, but I could be wrong.

Clean and prepare all items as normal. Add lettuce, then guacamole, then salsa, and finally blueberries to a large bowl with a sealing cover. Cover bowl and shake vigorously up and down and side to side for 10-15 seconds. Open and stir with large serving spoon. Does not keep well, so serve immediately after preparation into soup bowls.

I'm looking for places within walking distance of the Union.

I have summer school and live close to campus, so I usually go there to study or work. When is the best time to visit?
