It looks that the original topic was abandoned a while ago. Continued speculation about Biowares marriage with Securom here: http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=49658

Hanging out too much with Volourn again? Not really doing much these days, just alternating between work and sleep.

It's the same thing in Denmark. Only movies/cartoons for young kids are dubbed. You sort of "grow up" with subtitles and original languages. It has the added benefit of making it easier to pick up stuff like English in school, when you are used to watch english language movies with subtitles

For me it is a sense of violation of my privacy. The same thing as when you are under camera surveillance in a taxi or a public place. Besides that, the majority of the games in my cupboard is from companies that are no longer around. If those games had only been playable through online activation... *shiver* As for Securom and other things invented to insult the paying customer, I've experienced on my own body, that some of the games I have doesn't like my drives and only runs if tampered with. Things like that doesn't exactly endear them to me

Gorth I scratched my name from the list of potential buyers...

Definitely worth seeing

That one, and the enemy instant (re)spawning, which makes your tracking skill worthless just about every place where it could have been useful

I sure that a smart guy like you can do that without the implied personal insults...

You had me worried there for a moment Deraldin... that would have left me with the oldest and slowest computer on these forums :ninja10:

I sure can The Aussies still have a thing or two to learn about coffee making from their cousins across the Tasman.

A rather apt description. The game does that to you I'll probably give it a go again once I finish Fallout 2

Which is our sluggy friends way of saying "congratulations"

Finished playing Fallout 1. It has been too long since I played that one. I even missed the Master, only remembering that he is somewhere underneath the Cathedral, not the military base :blush10: Decided to have go at Fallout 2, this time with the "Restoration Patch" 1.1 downloaded from the link at NMA. No matter what I did (yes, I did follow the installation instructions and deleted the patch000 file), the game wouldn't let me exit Arroyo without crashing/hanging, so I removed the mod again. Now I am at Klamath, looking for Vic.

I had help (thanks Sand...) figuring out how to bring back the strategy camera mode of NWN2 pre-MotB Which, if I remember correctly, is very much like the camera in NWN1. It centers on what you have currently selected and rotates around it.

Privacy -> Ad Blocking -> Custom Button -> Animations

Do you have "Play Animations in Web pages" checked in your advanced browser settings? Some kind of privacy software installed? I seem to remember that my ZoneAlarm Pro has an option to block that kind of "intrusive" visuals.

Bought a handful of "nice price" DVD's yesterday. Watched two of them... Fantastic Four - Rise of the Silver Surfer. Not much to say about it, good easily digestable fun not requiring any cerebral action on my part. Tora! Tora! Tora! - I like some those old WWII movies. My first thoughts after watching it was: Wow, makes "Pearl Harbour" look like the poor cousin, doesn't it?

All the best just got back after the celebration beer. i successfully defended my dissertation today. in exactly 3 weeks, i'll be posting (for one day) as drtaks. man i feel relieved. thanks, gorth. mark Woohoo! Congratulations Dr. Taks

Yes. I don't know if you live in the US, but you might want to try this help line +1 (800) 388-7478

Came home late from work last night... couldn't really be bothered to do much work in the kitchen (not that I know how to cook anyway), so I grabbed some plain focaccia and put in the oven, then poured some virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar and raspberry vinegar in tiny bowls to go with it. All helped down with a generous serving of red wine. I just am lazy when it comes to food, having entrees for mains is almost as bad as an all dessert meal I suppose.

All the best
