Quote from S14 DRIFT :

I agree with your comment(s). I hate the big brother thing going on and the more they try to implement, the more I'll rebel against it. All we need is a majority of people to do so with me and they'll have to drop it. This is not a dictatorship.

Wrong. Oh so wrong.Those 650 or so MPs don't actually have to listen to what the people think. They're MEANT to, but due to the way party politics works over here it is rare to see it. More often than not it's the ruling party's stance on the issue that eventually gets put into Law, not that of (even the majority of) the people. And of course, since the Police etc are upholders of said law there's very little you can do to stop it, I'm afraid. (Short of electing someone else, but that won't happen for a while yet)

That's exactly what I mean, yes
I was lucky to get the one I have now, it was given to me as part of an old P1 system. Now this is starting to act up I want something to replace it. Hard search, unfortunately

I'm a fan of mechanical keyboards and am having real difficulty finding one to replace my rather old, dilapidated thing that the LEDs have stopped working on and is generally showing its age. I've seen Das Keyboard, but that costs way too much for my (rather studenty) budget. If anyone knows of any cheaper keyboards that can be shipped to the UK for a reasonable price then I'd appreciate it if you could point me at them here. Layout isn't important, I touch type anyway (and can remap keys rather easily)

You forgot Opengl, lulz nub

He said or, foo'

Done. Have a nice day.
(Apologies for the terrible photoshop, but it should be enough!)

The only thing I don't like is the blue LED on the power button. For some reason blue LEDs, strip lights etc mess with my eyes.I should really get the LED replaced but heh

In need of a bit of a clean, and populated by a lot of loose change and staples...

Looks terrible to me, but then I don't like Windows' font rendering one little bit. I've opted for something a little...nicer

Quote from theirishnoob :

make sure the cnut deserved it ?

:chairs: I've been wondering how short sighted people can get. Something tells me I just found out.

Get a licence if you're going to be driving. No two ways about it at all. Stuff the PC until you get a licence. If you end up getting caught without one you WILL get in MASSIVE trouble with the law. I'd rather have the knowledge that I'm not going to get pulled over just driving along than risking it every time I wanted to go somewhere.

The common ground for the past few years with regards to Linux support is: if you want a decent 3D card with drivers that work, get nVidia. This is becoming less and less the case, however. nVidia's drivers have been getting gradually buggier, but the ATI drivers are in a worse state. Just as long as you avoid the 180.xx series in terms of nVidia drivers you should be okay. ATI is a matter of don't even go there if you want to keep everything else up to date.

No, there is no point in having Vista over XP. You can very easily get XP looking like Vista

I have to agree. The text in the first picture is mostly unreadable, so some panels are needed.

Dude. Are you the G-Man?

What makes you think that?

And if you MUST have a game that's properly 3D there's always the High Resolution Pack for it

So yet again some advice if U have beighn single since birth stay out of here you abviously don't know a thing or 2 about human relationships.

And camera bought so why the hell are we stil talking actualy

Quote from Jakg :

We've been together a year and 3 months

As for the argument - as someone without the pain of a thousand ladies, I wish Jack the best. If he wanted to buy his girlfriend something, who's to say no? And who's to say that she's just using him? There ARE some genuine girls out there...and in greater quantity than people lead you to believe. She's clearly a keeper if they're still together after a year and 3 months.

Quote from Sessions :

I believe walking out infront of a bus is the stupidest thing you can do, well at least in the top 10.

As for smoking, my great grandma died of old age at 98, smoked a pack a day since she was 12, my grandma and grandad are into their 80's both smoke a pack a day at least. They still manage to take my young cousins 4 and 7 on a walk round the woods once a week (and take care of them the rest of the day). When i was 14 i tried smoking tobacco and didnt really enjoy it, again at 15 and then at 16 i started smoking tobacco, at 18 i started smoking cannabis on a daily basis. I said to myself that when this starts affecting my health i will quit. Well i run twice a week , cycle 10 miles a day for work and god knows how many at the weekend. I practice martial arts and when i get time i play some LFS. I am 23 and have had no negative effects so far, judging by my family i can see myself not having any in the future.

Oh and nicotine is a 'smart drug' that can reduce appetite therefor reducing obesity, but so can exercise :P

The assumption of "well <insert name here> had no trouble, so neither will I" is a stupid one to make. Every individual is different, even in the same family. Where one person may not get a smoking-related illness, another may get one at an early age. It's never something you can take for granted.

Unsure which OS to boot into, I chose two...

If you're trying to record in 32bit colour, that may well be why. LFS+FRAPS seem to have an issue with it...try 16bit colour

Erasure - Chorus

I'm on a bit of an 80's streak...it's worrying me...Considering I was born in '89, that is...

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

It's 3.1GB, however Graphical memory is subtracted from that also for the total that Windows will recognize. Each application can only use 2 GB of it though (IIRC)

No. The addressing limit on 32bit Windows is exactly 4GB (2^32 bytes). From that it addresses main RAM, graphics RAM and a few other things, so it's likely you'll never see more than about 3.5GB. The each app only being able to use 2GB is right, though.
