The country of the lazies, the blame everyone else, the wait until the last minute to do anything, the complainers, the morally and sexually backwards, the makers of good food, the discoverers of the world.

Beard pictures are required.

Stop mentioning mods that urge me to install Civ again, please.

I'm not familiar with Thorgal, but I always thought XIII and Largo Winch were pretty awful.

Dutch women are hotties. The only good thing about Belgium is comics. Van Hamme sucks, though.

Actually, under Portugal it should be "Isn't that in South America?"

Agreed. Fortunately, your bourgeois democracy somehow manages to do both. I wonder how? *whistles absent-mindedly* Just out of curiosity, where do you live? Not in the States certainly. Right? Wrong.

So it will be one of those games like every other game?

So Windows 7 is a bit of a ****, then?

Quote of the year!

Sorry?

I just got it on Blu-Ray. It looks fantastic, easily the best Blu-Ray showcase movie out there. Didn't they crop the Blu-Ray version?

Skooled, I guess.

A stealth SMG? What's next, a stealth RPG?

How old are you, 3? Have you never seen a CRT TV? Or a CRT computer monitor? OR every single TV show until a few years back? Or movies before TVs showed up?

Not widescreen.

http://www.newsweek.com/id/236096 Will attempt to respond more fully later. I had not looked at it in those terms [priests abuse at the same rate as the population as a whole]. I'd be hypocritical if I did, since I've argued many times that incidents of violent abuse in the Army are not higher than those in the general population. So, I concede the point. However, this is not just about incidents of abuse, it is about the way the Church has handled abusers. Specifically it has concealed their crimes both actively and passively, to a degree which suggests an institutional policy. That is, in the technical vernacular, totally ****ing mental. It's what everyone does, though. Basically, everyone reasons that concealment and denial is the best policy until they get caught. There was a paedophilia case here in Portugal involving a charity organization where it was basically the same deal. Only over 20 years after the fact did the victims come forward.

You know, I don't like censorship because I lived in a dictatorship where ideology was kept under constant watch and dissents was close to social death or literal. So i'm a little biased on the subject, but now that you bring up: Why is that censorship is bad? I mean there are things that should be censored. ORLY?

Oooh, I know this one, I know this one! Let's see... perspective? I'm betting on semantics.

If it's regular fruit juice with nothing added, it should be perfectly healthy.

Between those and Jay Z, there are 3 good reasons to go to Roskilde, instead.

Games are significantly slower in 7 than in XP. Mostly, it's not the 2 to 3 frame drop off benchmarks online told me. They've gone from silky smooth to stuttering unless I start lowering the bling. The games I've tested so far are Dragon Age, Call of Pripyat, Last Remnant and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Also there's the previously mentioned tearing of videos on the HDTV.

My worry isn't about RAM, though. Doubling the amount helped general performance a fair bit. My problem is that the CPU, and maybe the GPU as well aren't giving the same mileage as they did under XP.

Nice post. Thanks.

Was he hired directly from Spain?
