Congrats Kor!

Except Vista was ok and Windows 7 is on par or better while Fallout 3 was not that great and Oblivion was even worse. EDIT: I might pick up at least one upgrade once it comes out - or maybe before that, there's some good deals now.

DDO is NOT going free. They are simply switching to a business model in which you pay for stuff instead of a monthly fee. You can buy the items but you are not required to.

D&D Online is going free so that might be a good option, and Guild Wars is good as well.

Both are good games and Mass Effect 2 is going to be out soon if you choose that.

Yes, but only if you enabled the histories. However, the game did seem to know that you could do this as there is extra diolog when you first start if you use that trick.

EDIT: Nevermind, I looked at the wrong thing. Anyways, you're welcome.

The Hutt is and he likes it.

Well I'm trying to download it but it's taking forever, most likely because everyone else is downloading it as well.

There were other cases as well - that was not the first time he had been accused of that crime.

WoD RPG FTW!

The Malleus Maleficarum

VLC is now at 1.0.0!

Windows XP Service Pack 1a - Via Microsoft EDIT: Are legal mirrors of unaltered files ok*? I assume you were talking about versions that would work with pirated versions of windows, something the official ones would not do if I remember correctly, and I can understand that. However, if you were talking about other sites that have the original, unaltered files I would like some clarification about why this would not be allowed as they are doing nothing that the copyright holder is not already doing and, in many cases –although not in this one-, release files at the same time as the official site to save bandwidth and reduce lag. *I would have linked to some of those just in case the Microsoft file was removed but did not due to the ambiguous nature of your warning.

I'm downloading it now.

I would re-roll as I've never had that problem.

All of those statements also apply to my posting in this thread and/or my life, so, yeah… I did not intend to sound angry – just, at the most, miffed.

I agree, VLC is the first thing you should try.

Not a H.P. Lovecraft fan I take it?

So it is less arrogant to claim that a magical man in the sky is the root of everything? How does this make any sense without appearing terribly hypocritical? In addition, if the scientific method is not good enough what should be turn to? Apologetics? I am not trying to attack you but, frankly, I cannot see how saying “god did it” is anything but more pretentious and pompous.

Firstly, if you are talking about Gnostic Atheism –id est “there is no god or gods”- when you talk about all atheism you are mistaken, just as one would be mistaken to lump all theists into one group just because they share a belief in a god or gods. Secondly, and to address your point, atheism has no purpose as it has no tenets and no dogma. All one can infer from the statement “I am an atheist” is that the speaker does not believe in a god or gods. There is no church of atheism, there is no central authority. In the betterment and advancement of humanity for both future generations and ourselves. The comfort will be that I would have, hopefully, led a full, long life and helped contribute to the world in one way or another. Also, sure, I might not think that I am going to live forever in a magical kingdom, but then again I am also not afraid that I will go to an endless torture session because I “sinned.” A person described as agnostic is, most likely, an atheist as gnostic and agnostic convey the knowledge that the individual has on the subject and not the actual belief held by them. I can be both agnostic and an atheist –that is to say, I do not believe in a god or gods but cannot say that I know that there is or is not a god or gods- just as another person might be an agnostic theist. Even so, it does not matter what Darwin himself professed to believe for, as I have already said, there is no central atheistic organization. We are going to have to agree to disagree on this point, as it in my opinion that life is just as wonderful without a god as it is with one.

Opps, my bad I guess.

I'm running BG2 off my HD via .ISO files right now -I ripped them so I did not have to carry the discs around- and all it required was either installing from the HD or changing the ini.

Hopefully you'll get internet again sometime soon.
