edit 9 March 2015 FYI -Rohin placed info about mod for Bloodline: Bloodlines Antitribu . I don't know anything about mod. Yet. I purchased downloaded Vampire bloodlines from Steam. The game runs fine, except that the edges (top/bottom/sides) are off the screen. I have used the Nvidia control panel to move and center the display so that there are black ed
yes, very annoying.
Sounds like a good way to go. i did, 2 years ago, 'save' a cell phone after swimming with it (accidentally) via the open it, disconnect sim/bat wipe out and fan for 2 days. It worked. (Lucky, am I?) About the residue, it may be the minerals / chemicals in the municipal water. I note that when I boil a lot of water, i get a residue on the sides of the pot - same for cell?
so true!
[quote who="Kamamura_CZ" reply="25" id="3451533"] As a person who has been diagnosed with depression and took medication for a few years, I will share my notes on depression. - I personally believe that it's a result of a deeply unsatisfactory life our industrial and post-industrial society forces upon us. I mean, we are designed to run through forest, pick berries and hunt animals, to mate and experience both thrill and fear to which physical resp

Awesome, starkers, just awesome. By the way, the sata cables ad an artistic flair to the entire composition! Don't cut yourself short. Great job, great look, great performance, great bro. What else could a sister want?
I cannot speak to anything but your CPU / OS... excellent choices. I run an i7 with win7 home premium, and I have no problem running skyrim with max graphics settings and mods.
Photos? Photos? Why not go for the vids?

I have never played starcraft. But the experiences you shared in your opening post sound a lot like playing an expanded version of rock-paper-scissors-steroids. Agree, play with friends.
Ah, I understand now. SONY is more predatory than the typical corp-gang.
agreed.
Who ever knew that the old chestnut "Spam-a-lot" would turn out to be prophecy in disguise.
Wow, maybe someone will pick up his ball on this?
Great idea. I never tried giving henchmen spell books. Thanks!
I agree with what Steve M wrote. No matter what faction I play, I start my sov as a Mage. When some heroes come along, I choose one as a side kick. This one chooses skills that increase the effectiveness of the army. This becomes core force. Magic is just too powerful not to maximize.
[quote who="starkers" reply="19" id="3450762"] Quoting ElanaAhova, reply 16Its not just individual offices. Its also the group mentality, the 'us' and 'them' attitude that forms. It doesn't help that anyone who expresses interest in the US bill of Rights is labeled a 'terrorist.' Seriously, that's one of the red flags! Sadly, it is the way of government and the bureaucracy... the presumption of innocence is now from a bygone era and the g
@ScorpNZ c and d are separate physical drives. c is smaller and has OS. D is for applications, games, word, writing projects, utilities. Does this change what you would have written above? I appreciate your help and through descriptions. :) This approach seems to be even better than a restore point.
the crisis will be the excuse to ditch the rest of the constitution, and put the NSA/CIA/FBI/homeland security directly in charge?
[quote who="Chibiabos" reply="4" id="3450532"] Setting aside the "we've heard all this yakkity yak before about this tech for decades," Sony is on my permanent boycott listanyhow due to their rootkit fiasco. Hackers that aren't incorporated get years or decades in prison, but because Sony is a corporation, it got little more than a slap on the wrist despite, essentially, willfully infecting millions of computers with what amounted to a rootkit virus and essentially hacking
[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="6" id="3450713"] Hell, it isn't even called software any more. The name has been dumbed down to "Apps" I can remember when phones were dumb and the caller was supposed to be smarter ....and if you had a tablet, you probably had a pen and pencil as well and knew how to read and write (correct spelling was a nice bonus) Ironic, as the devices I use have more and more function and memory, I have less and less.
