[quote who="bonscott" reply="16" id="3182528"]..., they came up with this Origin service which is mandatory. Uhhh, no. I know I'm not alone in that many gamers refuse to get an EA game because of the Origin requirement. Same for many Ubisoft games and their horrendous DRM. [/quote] I'm one of 'em. I didn't even get a new account once they also introduced it to the Bioware forums. Well, actually I didn't buy any EA games eversince it

Other than that: What StevenAus said in his last post. Work-life balance keeps you from degenerating into a kind of Smeagol... Our CIO works even in morning hours between 1 and 4 and also on weekends. He makes the money while the three women in his life (wife and 2 daughters) spend it.

That's why in Germany they already had to correct the text of their user agreement. Otherwise they would have risked a complete sales stop due to potential violation of german privacy protection laws. Funny enough: Latest news has it that EA states not Origin would access all those files but windows to adjust access rights for installation of patches, updates n stuff. I'd laugh my ass of if it wouldn't be so damn sad...

WOW! That trailer was 1000% better than the whole BSG series with Eddie Olmos. I like him and his version of Adama very much. But the series was as crappy as can be. Except for the ending with Baltar and Six watching the japanese robot, saying it's gonna happen all over again...

Although it doesn't explain the thing I saw and described earlier here, I think the more likely explanation for most UFO sightings is US experiments with new kinds of aircrafts based on what and who they harvested after WW2 during Operation Paperclip. The thousands of german scientists who were brought to america must haven been of SOME use, right?. I mean it's more than obvious that the B2 for expample is widely based on the Horten IX aircraft. And during the times it was still a bla

Funny how a thread about UFOs an aliens turned into a debate about causality, religion, quantum mechanics and whatnot. In school you would all get an F for addressing the wrong topic.

The big problem with people is that they cannot comprehend alien lifeforms that are totally different from humans. It begins with scientists ruling out planets that don't have the exact same conditions Earth has when searching for alien lifeforms. [e digicons]:|[/e] Still, last year a lifeform was found on earth that exists in temps above 100°C. All of the sudden scientist say:"Hmm, maybe we should not just look for Earth like planets when searchin for lifeforms." Somethi
