Half Life 2 Crashing
Pretty much any game specific, and even more so scenario specific, glitch in a game would best be asked in the tech forum for that game, not here.

Report: N. Korea fires on S. Korea, injuring at least 6
I'm just glad it didn't escalate.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Inception - I definitely enjoyed it. It was pretty awesome the first time watching it having known absolutely nothing about it other than a few of the actors in it. This second time watching it was pretty awesome as well since I didn't have to formulate possibilities as the movie went along. However, I don't foresee myself watching this often, or possibly ever again.

Commuting
Around 28 minutes to get to work, around 23 minutes to get home. Same route, just different times because of traffic.

Limewire shut down
I almost bought a phone off one of those sites before. I'm still thinking about buying some hand painted art off of there (hand painted by Chinese slave labour most likely, hand painted none the less).

[Spoilers] Stargate Universe
I was kind of hoping one lived, but it makes more sense this way. I just liked Julia McNiven a lot.

Improving my internet for RS.
It can't. Whether he is using a VPN or not using one he is still going over the same connection. More likely the router is still the culprit. It sees VPN traffic and passes it just fine, but isn't passing other traffic fine. A very, very unlikely scenario is that the route from his home to the Runescape server is less efficient than the route from his home to his vpn server to the Runescape server. The data should be transferred through one of the most efficient routes though, and if it isn't the most efficient then the difference is usually negligible. Just for curiosity, what kind of internet service do you use?

Consumerism thread
I've owned just two cars, a 2006 Chevy Cobalt and 2010 Toyota Corolla S. I drove a 1995 Chevy Lumina EuroSport for a year or two, then a 1998 Chevy Cavalier coupe for a few years before getting the Cobalt. Small car wise my current one (Corolla) has been my favourite. It is most likely just because cars improve over time. It gets pretty decent gas mileage (avg about 34mpg). I did buy it new, like I bought my Cobalt, and in the end while I do really enjoy it I don't think it was worth it. Just should have put the $600 into the Cobalt and kept it for a while longer.

Computer Upgrade
What are the concerns? I would like to know before I start; I may try on a virtual box first. I've never actually done it before. It just seems like their would be a lot of crap from the previous install that is just not necessary anymore.

Possibly a bit of a stupid question
I've never seen it not work before, but just to double check you could do a google search for the model of video card + multiple monitors. But you should be fine.

Firefox Is Already Running
I do this when it happens and it usually fixes it :thumbup: That's what he said he does: But yeah, that's the quick fix. All you have to do to prevent that error is wait for it to close itself; in other words don't attempt to open it up again for a minute or two after closing it. Or you could do what I did: I said "[bleep] you firefox" and downloaded chrome instead.

Computer Upgrade
I would personally never upgrade a computer from one OS to another, it is just better to do a clean install.

Recording 360 gameplay through a monitor
Thanks, that answers all of my questions. :rolleyes: The main one I need to know right now, is whether recording gameplay from a small TV screen will impact on the quality of my footage. Depends entirely on how you record it. If you are pointing a video camera at the screen then obviously it would make a difference. If you are using a capture device before the signal gets to the TV then obviously it wouldn't.

The Walking Dead
I'm still not impressed, seems to be pretty standard, by the book zombie action so far.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Just from looking at a picture of the DVD cover and vaguely remembering the trailer in front of another movie a year ago, that is the exact words I would expect to give on a review of that movie. I'll probably get it here before long.

Closed
A lot of people say Bethseda games are full of bugs and that has always surprised me, I've been playing their games for years now and I've never really had any more problems than any other game.
-
What movie(s) did you last see?
I find them about even, maybe with Shaun a little better. I've watched 3 movies tonight. Space Chimps- better than I really expected Sgt. Bilko- great movie You Don't Mess With the Zohan- easily the worst of the 3 I would easily put Shaun of the Dead over Zombieland. But they are both enjoyable movies.

Check my build?
No idea about that.

Check my build?
Rosewill is Newegg.com's house brand. They are actually pretty good... But yeah I wouldn't get a 900W either for this build. I have a 750W in my build and it is completely adequate.

The Walking Dead
I think I might be over zombies, because I haven't been too impressed with this.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Oh god this. Awesome movie. Just watched it. Mary Elizabeth Winstead was one of my favourite actresses long before Scott Pilgrim ever existed, but I will say that after seeing her as Ramona Flowers I fell in love completely. Did you read the comic before seeing the movie? It's definitely worth reading once, even if you don't like comics :smile: , especially if you liked the movie.
-
What movie(s) did you last see?
Hardly. Although it wasn't nearly as good as the first... Best thing to do with someone who says a popular movie is the worst movie ever is to just ignore them, it gets them hard when someone tries to argue with them.

Limewire shut down
I don't want to but I can't afford everything I want. Also when purchasing it hardly ever is as good of an experience as I get from torrents. If I want to burn the music to a CD I can, or put it in my iTunes for my iPod, or stream it to my PS3, or put it on my laptop and bring it to DJ a party, or remote to media server from work and play it there. Can use any program I want, can change it to any format I want, can keep the original lossless rip on a backup drive and make a 320kbps mp3 for my iPod. I'm sure I could do some of that having bought the music from amazon or iTunes, with downloading you just never have to worry about it.
