  1. I've just been asked to delete all of Felithvian's post in this thread as apparently they weren't written by him but by someone else using his computer.. So, I'm going to have a global mod do that. Just FYI. Hope it doesn't screw up too much unrelated content.
  2. Do we really know that it's being used 'for good'. What if the NSA happened to know something that would guarantee that a major order went to an American defense contractor over other bidders. Would they sit on that information. Would a closed senate oversigth comittee even object. Whenever national security is involved the normal rules don't apply. Arguably no clear set rules apply at all.

    It's something about the way they move that's disturbing, but really they are hugely preferable to flies. Large ones will still get evicted once discovered though. Jumping spiders are cute. They don't have the freakish long legs.
  4. Why are the lines in the Pacific so wonky. I mean the whole point is to make clocks work so you could navigate. Well before GPS anyway. You can't just pick and chose what time zone you would prefer.
  5. As far as I'm concerned Surperman is lame, so if they changed if up a whole lot that's all potential gain.
  6. It's a public sphere thing. They don't dress like that inside.
  7. Neighbourhood of 4000 DKK./ 500 Euro.
  8. So, I'm looking to buy a mobo, ram sticks and processor combination . For now my GFX, a HD7950, will be salvaged as will the case. The biggest question is what CPU to get. I don't upgrade very often. Aside from gaming I use it for PS and 3Dsmax, so more ram and processing power will be much appreciated.

    I don't have DotA 2. Know a couple of people who are into it. The competitive gaming with huge Cash prizes is a nice touch. Steep learning curve, which is nice, but I'm just not much for diablo type gameplay.
  10. I'm pretty sure sound is nothing like radiation and accumulated decibel equals hearing damage. Only decibel over X ammount does damage. That said I got the most silent of the HD7950, the Asus one, and I'm quite glad I didn't get one 5% faster and 25% more jet plane.
  11. You have to do some cleaning inside your vid cards and CPU coolers once in a while, dust will always get through. You need a set of small screwdrivers and a lot of patience and care. I use a small animal hair painting brush to get the dust off, then it's just a matter of putting things back where they were.
  12. Turkey was always the exception in Arab states, besides what do they want with another Arab spring. Isn't Turkey demoratic.
  13. What's crazy is that there are tracks, which means it wasn't a one off.
  14. Once Sherman started operating behind enemy lines it became obvious that the north could afford to replace their losses and the south could not. They were never going to win. As long as Lee could keep winning and then giving the same ground and keep the Union tied up the illusion could be maintained, that changed with the scorched earth campaign.
  15. I still play UT2004 with a mate with a prehistoric Mac. Can't run anything more recent, besides it's still an awesome game. I also recentlt played Homeworld and the Total war series again. I think I'm done with BG and PST replays though.
  16. There isn't really much to be said for the Confederate position. It wasn't a fight over ideology though, at least not at first. Lincoln was keen not to be put in with the Abolitionists which were seen as disruptive radicals. Later the slavery issue became a means to an end; unification.
  17. It's a shame when you have a real actor or two, I mean above the skill of good enough for TV, or suitable for the attention span of a 13 year old, that there is no time to let them strut their stuff.
  18. Star Trek. Liked Benedict Cumbersomesurname didn't care if Kirk or Spok lived or died. Peter Weller has come a long way since Robocop. Must be all those David Lynch movies, he had a lot of presence. I was actually rooting for him. Why is the formatting doing that ?
  19. I can't help but wonder what the techs looking at kinect metadata at 5 in the morning are going to think. 'Sleepwalker over here. That's a guy jerking off, and we have... another guy jerking off.'

    To go back on topic, the Swedes have been somewhat surpised that after creating low income housing and after immigrant families started living there to the exclusion of most everyone else they turned into what is know in American gangster rap venacular as 'projects'. Granted they are pretty nice projects compared to most places, but it's all entirely predictable.

    It's easy to forget, but the early Nazi membership, the brownshirts, were all street brawlers who would fight with communist youth. A bit too unpredictable. Once he didn't need them anymore Hitler created the SS.

    No wait, it's another march in Sweden. Rudof Hess was borderline retarded. Seems a suitable tribute for Nazis.
  23. Gorgon replied to obyknven's topic in Way Off-Topic
    Is it the Rudolf Hess march ?. Swedish Nazis, lol. Anyway they come from all over Europe to throw bricks at them, have been for decades now, it's quite the party if you are into that sort of thing.
  24. I thought there was EU legislation in the works to ensure that digital content could change ownership, don't know what happened to it though.
  25. It very quickly gets boring without permadeath. I refer to the latest X Com game for why this is so. I would be much dissapointed if there was not at least a hardcore mode with permadeath.
