Fighting breaks out in South Ossetia
Unbelievable... These fighting idiots. "Oh, there hasn't been a war between two countries in Europe for some time now, let's start one!" "Yeah cool, let's show them we're still strong!" Animals with "superior" brains used for weapons instead of common sense.

DO NOT buy a new Geforce 8800GT
POV is doing the same game on 8600GT. See http://www.ipcstore.net/techdealer/index.h...l&id=105621. It's about the level of a 8400GS...

Ah, too bad. My little (ok, I shouldn't call her that anymore) sister liked what little she heard of VAST. Amplifier - Motorhead I found a hiding place / beneath a dirty blanket of distorted bass Metallica - Fade to black

PLEASE don't do the same mistake as bioware
See the NWN2-Boards for the latest iteration of the Securom FAQ. I've directed some people there after their DVD Burner stopped recognizin the NWN2 disc, or in some cases any disc whatsoever.

Movies you have seen lately
Yesterday: Birthday Girl. Considering that just before that I've seen a documentary about trading female sex slaves in Eastern Europe, it was pretty weird. That documentary again made clear that however ridiculous I find mankind, it is even worse. I mean, married women taken away from their men in the Ucraine and sold in Turkey?! Wtfh is going on? They're drugged and raped and used by pimps to make some money before they (the women, not the pimps) die. I hate humans. Anyway, back to Birthday Girl. I was surprised by Ben Chaplin who played very good, and by the ending that was too happy for my taste. But it was such a relief after the documentary. Also, it's funny seeing French guys and an American woman play Russians. Today: LA Crash. Wow. It's totally Hollywood with great feelings and all, but what intense feelings those are, and totally American with the take on enthnicities and the resolution with that song around the word "free" in the end. Got me quite emotional really, and the "free" song is actually about problems and by a Welsh band. The cast acts great without exception. What did bug me was that the whole film was convoluted with problems. While they were all realistic if taken one by one, they felt overblown when taken together. Nonetheless, a must see in my opinion.

Another one of those upgrade threads.
I think drivers for 64bit OSs are not as big a problem anymore with new hardware.

What you did today
Sometimes it's a good idea to do so. Saves you a lot of stress, tests (if there are any you haven't taken yet ) and money if you can tell the doctor what your various symptoms are, what you think it is, and what you need against it. Tested it, worked. Same for my girlfriend.

Fields of the Nephilim - Last Exit for the Lost (Live) Still getting goosebumps after the long time it's building up, when it finally reaches the finale (or never actually reaching it... closer and closer...) and people are getting extatic... I can still feel it. Ah, holy [edit: begone swear words ] awesome.

PLEASE don't do the same mistake as bioware
But to the degree that your DVD drive may be physically damaged. Not mine, because fortunately I have a DVD-ROM drive as well as a burner, but others. If you're interested, check out the NWN2 Tech Section or ATARI's boards and search it for Securom issues

If the drive's jumper is set to slave, but there is no master, it will not work Furthermore, if you have a new system that came with only SATA-Drives, make sure that IDE/UDMA/PATA (or whatever it is called in your BIOS)-support is activated in your BIOS.- The Music Thread

This illustrates my point of omnipresent discrimination of jews (and black people, and gays etc), be it positive or negative, joke or earnest [edit]Discrimination: Treating different when there shouldn't be a difference.

They're great. I'm patiently waiting for the mod to finish, for some years now, and I can wait some more. There's no need to hurry, and a lot to look forward to- The Music Thread
No Capital G for example wouldn't be any good without the lyrics, and with the lyrics it's, well, very spot on. But well, it may be just me liking NIN's lyrics and voice... Nine Inch Nails - The great destroyer- My awful computer needs an update. Bad.
If you go by Bokishi's advice, make sure you get the correct 8800GT, see here Furthermore, the HD4850 doesn't cost much more (15$ where I live) and delivers significantly more speed.- Radeon 48XX coming
It will never come I think, or not with the same computing power anyway, because it draws more power than a whole notebook normally does (including processor, screen, hdd, dvd, graphics etc)- The Music Thread
