What if the University doesn't offer the degree you are interested into? I wanted to get into Biomedical (not for maintaining medical equipment, not interested in that crap really) to research implants, improving the human brain and all that. I have had to settle for Electronics with Telecoms...

Cool, now they just need to elect Darrell Hammond and Will Ferrell so we can enjoy more Celebrity Jeopardy SNL sketches. Shuck on it Trebek, shuck it long and shuck it hard!

Have you considered boxers? I've had German sheherds and while very loyal, they can become very jealous of other people. Mine was an excellent bodyguard and nanny. My boxer, crossbreed English and American boxer (had the stripes of the English boxer and the white chest of the American...

SLI and Crossfire, the biggest money sinks in PC gaming. Be wary of power requirements if you are going to use any new video chipsets...a high grade card can consume as much juice as the rest of the system. Your processor needs to be fast enough to feed data to the video cards at a good...

I have played Defcon and was astounded by it. It's interesting to play in a cold, noiseless room. With only its weird, electronic music playing. Makes you feel a bit like Skynet or WOPR, dishing out nukes and watching casualties soar without very much concern. Very dehumanizing. Once you...

The US and Russia have no interest in playing nuclear chicken. While the technology between the 2 countries is not 100% on par, there are several factors that could muddle a possible prediction of who would lose. The movie Wargames, while childish and oversimplifying showed clearly how in...

The problem with the PSP is that its one possible use, as a portable emulation platform, can be better done by a any smallish portable system. Hell PSP can't even run the SNES emulator at full speed, as the PSP version of SNES9X is written in C++ instead of Assembler. No chance of a better...

I liked Dragonball and the Z era but after the Cell saga, they come up fighting a damned bubblegum devil...WTF. They discarded most of the support cast in favor of the Saiyans, they served no more purpose than a role of cannon fodder. Not that the characters were particularly deep but...

You can also try disabling Vsync. Force it to off in the video card driver settings, be it Catalyst or the Nvidia Control Panel.

I would recommend going to the Co8 forums for TS advice. I remember having some issues in getting it to run on Vista on my laptop and got it working after reading a few posts.

What gives the government the right to tax its citizens is the fact that these citizens employ the constructs that the State has created. Namely an economic system and rules that allow you to conduct trade and earn a living. I have always used that argument for income tax and I think it works...

Its better that way. Much better. Trust me on that. Ask the wife if would like you covered in honey.

I've had it several times now. So far, none of my dreams are prophetic so I don't worry about the implications of them. Oh and I forgot to include the worst nightmare I've had: --I live with my dad in an apartment and my bro lives with my mom, our parents are divorced...I dream this by the...

Seconding the Pentium IV reply. I wasn't aware of how slow my Pentium IV 3.2 2MB was until I upgraded to a Core 2 Q6600. Netburst is really the worst architecture I have seen.

Damn, I thought I was the only one that had the teeth falling off dream. My dreams are usually what people describe as nightmares. I say nightmares because the dreams always cause me grief and discomfort. A most recurring dream is my version of the teeth problem: I'm walking inside an...

I can live with a more colorful Diablo 3 atmosphere. Sure, Diablo had a kickass atmosphere but at times, the monotony of the color palette actually caused me headaches and nausea. At least Blizzard is intelligent and implemented a highlight key so that you can see the items on the floor. If...

I found this disgusting little beast while browsing Pravda. http://english.pravda.ru/photo/report/naked_mole_rat-3120 Seems like radiation mutated this baby, gave it mangy, brown fur and made it a non-burrower. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_mole_rat

Don't lose much sleep about neither SURA nor HAARP. Both radiate "safe" frequencies (a little lower than TV signals and FM radio). The power is considerable but that's just to overcome the atmospheric dampening caused clouds and other factors. Stand in front of a RADAR array...and I'll bring...

I wish Fargo would convince Tim Cain and Jason Anderson to work with him on a Wasteland remake.

If the HAARP's intent is to sterilize Russia...they better rethink it. Russia has an antennae array like this one too. Feeling your 'nads hotter than usual?
