  1. Is it safe to assume that if FO3 ran smoothly that this will too ?
  2. I can't read it because google wants to translate it into some Eastern block country language. Which of these mean 'go away auto translator' ? N
  3. I'm sincerely hoping that 22/10 (that's 22 October you crazy yanks) means 22/10 at 00:01 hrs. If not, I'm going to break something.
  4. Governments are players in the markets, always have been, and like anyone else they try whatever they can to emerge ahead. So in a sense we are allowing the market to set the exchange rates.
  5. Don't all countries who can try and do that, affect the currency to their own advantage. It's a bit much to expect countries to be responsible when there is an advantage in not doing so.
  6. The main problem with the US credit crisis as you know was all the bad debt starting a vicious cycle as more and more foreclosures meant people were living in houses worth less than their mortgages. I don't think that's likely to happen again here. Although households where both wage earners lose their jobs are going to have a tough time with it.
  7. There's another one. An actual EI user. We have two on these boards now. We should capture a few live specimens for preservation and gene sampling before we lose them to extinction.
  8. It's like when corporations downsize, makes them mean and lean for the recovery. Britain is entirely dependent on world trends in it's economy, they don't have anything to fall back on. This is all they can do, other than create a massive deficit which will hound them for decades.
  9. I must have been very lucky with FO3 because I only remember the odd CDT, no hard locking. Not going to trust the quicksave button though, it's going to be miles and miles of save games as per usual.
  10. I don't even get that. I think we should form a secret tryst to find and slowly and painfully kill whoever is responsible for the European release date. We'd have to hurry though, if we don't get it done in the next 23 hrs we aren't gonna care anymore.
  11. Ruin lives, hardly. You make do with less. Builds character.
  12. Scores don't mean anything. I can't count the number of times I've seen absolute manure get 90+%.
  13. Ahh yes, I remember when I cited Playboy magazine for a 'scoop' involving a a campaign finance scandal. I was disappointed with the lack of response from the teacher, there seemed to be ample room for comments.
  14. You should basically work on your ninja skills so you would be able to block and reverse the stab attack. Drinking 30 cups of coffe a day would also work towards not getting snuck up on.
  15. Why, because I can. Also how do you do that VPN thing.
  16. I got it on STEAM. The buggers know where I live, ain't no fooling them.
  17. I don't have time to play Friday when some ****tard decided I could finally have the game I bloody paid for, I have time NOW. *grumble*
  18. You couldn't remap the most useful keys in FO3 either, like the pipboy and such. Well you could, but it would revert after loading a game. I recommend a gaming mouse with lots of buttons you can assign to any key you like. You would think full functionality of key remapping would be the worlds easiest job for the coders (not that I really know anything about it). Lots of games these days are just lazy about it.
  19. with respect, F Just thought I'd toss that out there. *highfive* Congrats! Excuse me, but what is all this ?
  20. Reign of Assassins Basically it's Michelle Yeoh and sortof an assassin love triangle thing going on. Sound like you have seen it all before ?, well this time the characters are more well defined and the whole getup less poetic and 'flying around like supermanish'. I absolutely love it, I'm gonna go see it again when it comes out in the theaters here.
  21. The term is 'recovering hippie'. One day at a time... one day at a time.
  22. I didn't know you needed internet to activate games for consoles. I mean there are so many other options, they could even make their own cartridges. I guess it's all part of a business strategy though, force them online and you automatically have a gazillion new potential users of your online store, or whatever Xbox calls it.
  23. This is the new reality with PC games, get used to it. STEAM is the limit of what I will put up with, but I will put up with it. I suggest you do the same. Crying about it is not gonna help.
  24. Those things are the scourges of petting zoos everywhere. You do not want to encroach on their territory or your thighs will pay for the trespass. We had a few in my hippie commune days. The dogs knew enough to give them a wide berth.
