  1. Greetings from my new computer. This thing is so fast I'm sending this message from the future *something going fast sound* I wanted to once again thank everyone for their help
  2. I just want an ability/trait/feat/whatever called ghost bleach. I don't even care what it does but that name needs to be in the game now
  3. http://www.microsoft.com/oem/en/licensing/sblicensing/pages/downgrade_rights.aspx#fbid=_ELtlWoVmge Though I'd probably just hang in there for now. Windows 9 is coming and is supposed to fix the start button and general UI and design fiasco (rumor is it's adding a proper start menu back in but with some live tile enhancements) but keep and hopefully improve on the performance gains. I would suggest getting something like D_N suggested (Start8 or Classic Shell) for now I run vanilla 8.1 but the long adjustment period and frustration with the changes nearly made me switch to Mac (which I hate for much of the same reason) or Linux (which I only dabble in)
  4. Now I'm just waiting for my video card and the RAM to come in. Thinking of going ahead and getting that second video card since I saved a bunch of money by switching to stuff that fell off a truck* *actually I got some great sales and promotions and got some liquid cooling doohickey for free. I just hope it doesn't suck
  5. Parts are slowly trickling in and everything should be here by Monday
  6. Data mining or If you sleep on a spring mattress they could be using the coils to control your thoughts
  7. Another teaser Seems "The Secret World-ish"
  8. As always greed? Its a best-selling book, if he wins he can collect a pay check... That or those alleged remarks closed doors for him, which he needs to be open. As I understand it, he filed the lawsuit while Kyle was still alive; death doesn't stop a lawsuit, it just means a loss would effect the estate. And he won http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2014/07/30/jesse-ventura-vs-chris-kyle-a-case-where-no-one-won/ Edit - Question for the more legal minded among us. Can he refuse to collect the settlement or give it back or do something so that the estate keeps it?
  9. Came back from Costa Rica to horrible weather in Denver, picked up my doge, ordered a pizza, and am now sipping on a vanilla float Dr Pepper
  10. I can't believe they aren't showing the invisible plane. My issue with the new WW is that I think of Lynda Carter when I think of what WW should look like. Gal is very attractive but she's closer to the stick figure end of the stick figure - Lynda Carter scale even with the padded costume and both of the 2 pounds she added for the role
  11. I've just barely started but I'll dive into it in a couple days. It was recommended to me by a coworker who also enjoyed the Raven's Shadow books so I'm hoping it's somewhat like that but with a more military slant
  12. As someone who only wants to download and play games all the services are pretty much the same. Everything else is just bloat to me as I don't see the appeal of achievements and I mostly play games solo.I've had more issues with Steam than with Uplay or Origin but you can probably chalk part of that up being a result of being forced to play more games on it. Which is my biggest gripe about the whole thing,non-Valve Steam exclusives.
  13. Day 1 - The arrival Our little hopper plane. Was an awesome rollercoaster-like ride from San Jose to Quepos followed by a short ride to Uvita and a decent climb up the mountain We got there fairly early in the morning so they served us breakfast first thing The pool was awesome as it had an underwater sound system for those horrible moments when you are in the water and you're torn because you really want to swim underwater but your favorite part of the song is coming up and you don't want to miss it Most of the room and other first day pics are still on the camera or on my phone and I hate my wife's mac so please forgive me only having these scant few to share at this point
  14. Laptop died as I was sorting the pics so I just went to bed. I'll have the first batch up shortly Uh... bonjour?
  15. Post allotted editing time edit- I still wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers
  16. Man, I'm completely wasted and that's not very appealing... For a Wonder Woman anyway
  17. Still a couple days until I blow this popsicle stand but my wife is deep in the wine and some book(Discovery of Witches book 3: The Book of Life) so I figured I'd put up a few pics
  18. Second to last full day at this resort. Not looking forward to heading home but I miss me doge. Tommorrow we are ziplining or some such then the next day we check out and head to San Jose and then head back to CO the day after that.
  19. The Thousand Names by Django Wexler. Military fantasy
  20. I kept calling it crusted butt when I was there.I said it so many times jokingly that it kept slipping out when I meant to say the proper name
  21. Desu desu kawaiii, Krieger-san. I'd like a version of the Shadowrun game that didn't suck. I really liked Dragonfall but I'd rob a bank to fund an Obsidian Shadowrun game Star Trek would be at least armored truck robbery worthy WH40K or Vampire would be insurance fraud or insider trading or whatever people in minimum security prisons do
  22. Thanks WoD. Whether I agree or not, I'm just trying to understand your position better and not really trying to argue the point.
