You seem to think you have the right to live in a country whose safety was earned with the blood of your ancestors, without fighting for the values that they died for for ALL mankind.

Sounded like a bad driver (application).

It's actually been bothering me for a while ... televisions have had 50Hz and 100Hz models for years, which have their own shortcomings. I think the faster ones cause eyestrain for a different reason, but it is not as bad as the lower frequency.

I did not say they aren't cultured enough. Nowhere did I make such judgment. That is your judgment of them, not mine. They have a different culture than ours. The have a different set of social norms on what is acceptable and what is not acceptable. Their culture is no more advance nor any more backwards than our own. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Congratulations, you just defined Apartheid.

Obviously RP is respecting our more sensitive grammatical sensibilities at Obz.

Sounds like a description I'd apply to a certain very vocal individual, and his opinions, from these very boards ... " That's right, those dirty little semites aren't cultured enough to participate in a democracy. Adding racism to your isolationist diatribe, now? Excellent, I'm so pleased I re-opened the topic.

Right. Let's keep the discussion relevant, and not just bleat opinions ad nauseam, as this is not conducive to the fair and equal exchange of information.

*does not make a comment about the coincidental similarity between a tongue and a slug*

Eyes can be replaced with the tongue.

No the other topic was closed because it was being misused as a soapbox for a certain member to spam his opinion, without adding significantly to the discussion. But, as you seem to not want Way Off-Topic to have more leniency and a broader remit than the topics in other fora, then I am pleased to asist you.

I am rarely surprised.

Not quite: survival of the fittest (implicit: of non-aware intelligences) is regarded as amoral.

Well, as you demonstrated, it is immediately recognisable as a dance, so it is pretty useful as an archetype.

What you describe is not a bug that I am familiar with (and I have completed the game a few times); I would be hesitant to blame the game when there might be numerous other causes, such as your PC specs, for example.

It's good to collect useful information together, for people who search first, rather than just post new topics whenever they want to ask a question. Which is much neater. Unfortunately, people tend to use any excuse for spamming, such as name-calling "necropost" or "n00b" depending on whether the poster exhumes an old thread or starts a new one. A true win-win situation for the spammer, then.

Cool! I knew resolutions were standardizing on 1080p, but I wasn't so au fait with the concomitant gains in technology. Brand name, quality, etc: just like cars, you can get a good standard brand or a entry-level premium brand for a lower price point.

I'd recommend widescreen LCD ... prices are rock-bottom (and probably can't get much lower, proportionally), and there are 19" LCDs for about what you are looking for (1680x1050), e.g. some local ones here in ol' Blighty: iiyama 22", NEC 20".

He has detailed files ... :ph34r:

Correlation or causation, though?

Well, the British navy have lost a couple of ships in battles, though, not against men with sticks ... I recall a particular one (with German battleship, though) and the postmortem I watched indicated that the UK ship was in breach of safety regs; apparently is was quite common to not keep an air-gap between all the constituent links in the chain from storage of the munitions to the guns, which caused a stray spark form the gun to ignite the entire load of munitions. Apparently, this was common lexa-non-scripta practice for the navy, as it allowed the teams to speed up the reloading process significantly. I guess the reason for health and safety regulations was brought home with such incidents ... :D

Because I liked beating tanks with my man-with-a-stick? "

The perfect Lawful Good dilemma.

The player can lose points for imprecise work; you may not have noticed in because you were concentrating so hard on some of the unique characters ... "

I've heard them referred to as "ass antlers". ) I very, very rarely see a design that I think is worth even a momentary adornment, let alone a lifetime's worth, which is why I generally don't see the attraction in tattoos. then again, remarkably infrequently, I see one that I think is actually worthy of the "art" label, as it transcends mere graffiti and becomes something sublime.
