  1. Those are all Japanese, I don't know any of them.
  2. Vishnu and Shiva would make kickass superheroes.
  3. I'm almost deaf in one ear, does that count.
  4. It doesn't work off the grid, so no.
  5. That's like the Rolls Royce of dirtbikes. It's still a dirtbike though, you could overtake it on a bicycle.
  6. Why do you get to be seargent at arms. It's the coolest sounding title.
  7. My dad was in East Germany twice, both times passing through. Earlier every west German citizen could pass check point charlie just using a passport. It was only after the mass escape attempts and the shootings by the east side guards that it was tightened up.
  8. You could get into the Iron curtain without too much hassle, Their main concern was keeping their own citizens in. If you were connected with politics and even better, socialism, they would roll out the red carpet and give you the grand tour.
  9. The psychological effect is not to be underestimated. Who would buy irradiated food, even if the levels are entirely insignificant. No one.
  10. Wrong thread but Ron Paul is still the awesomest of all the republicans
  11. Ron Paul is tha man. I mean his theories are crazy, but they are all of them consistent and free of media fluff.
  12. WOT post don't count towards post count.
  13. On second thought that's probably too kind, more like it collapsed under its own ineptitude.
  14. I guess the Russians overthrew the regime because they were bored then.
  15. By that time the gear will be obsolete, quite a lot of the opposition requires +5 or better to hit. You could cheat your way with Gatekeeper, but that's a slippery slope, I could never get myself to stop and I would invariably ruin the challenge for myself.
  16. 16 gigs. Does GoG send you a CD. My internet is pretty choppy while I wait for an upgrade to kick in.
  17. Let me know if it's at all playable with a 2 ghz processor.
  18. I don't see it anywhere
  19. Why in gods name does steam not download a new version of a game and then apply it instead of making the game unavailable while you wait for the download to complete, thus creating massive demands on available servers every time a popular game gets an update. Is there not a setting somewhere that can turn autoupdate off for your games ? At least i managed to find one that turns the popups off.
  20. I've said as much before, but haven't the US been trying to kill him for a decade already. Spy drones, air strikes etc. Yes, they went in and eliminated him, that much seems obvious, and why then did they pretend it's something else. They couldn't put him on trial, a closed trial would have no legitimacy at all given their relationship, and an open trial would be a platform for him to preach from, and besides the US doesn't subscribe to the notion of international courts. If the official stance had been, 'yes we killed him, it was a military operation in an ongoing conflict'. I don't think there would have been much in the way of outcry at all. If we can't class him as an 'enemy combatant', then who, honestly.
  21. the whole Machine shtick is lame, but the show has it's moments. I suppose they will just go back to being an X files show now that the whole war of the worlds thing is over.
  22. Odds are that uranium dust is a whole lot worse for you. Banning dum dums and white phosphorous is stupid, banning cluster bombs certainly is not. Weapons shouldn't be banned because they are good at killing and maiming, that's what they are supposed to do, but a continuous health risk for the civilian population long after the weapon has been deployed, that's something else.
  23. I suppose I could OC my way to 2,66. Or maybe it's time to buy a new box and quit trying to upgrade. On the other sys rq this high are probably a one off, for now anyway.
