Wasn't this the premise for an episode of Fringe?

I just got to Dantooine in my first playthrough on the PC since it came out; the prospect of going back through Taris again is mind-numbing.

Knew? Or hoped?

Part of my job is identifying pump replacement parts, which sounds about as exciting as it is. Our main manufacturer, WAY back in like 1995, developed a program for Windows 95 that's never been updated; it's still accurate (we don't really change numbers; for the one item that is changed, the seal kit, we just do the…

I'd say "Baldur's Gate" beat it to the punch on being the first D&D game on iOS, at least, but this looks pretty cool.

Be very glad. I was happy when she started it, because she really loves it, but it's one of those hobbies that's endlessly expensive.

There's a whole separate line of special acid and lignin free papers and inks and photo inks and stickers and whatever bullshit that people who are into this use to prevent that; I have no idea if it WORKS, but in a way the printing of pictures is a better way to do this; there's still an original digital, untouched…

My wife does a lot of scrapbooking, so she still prints photos out. She usually just uses our printer, which does a nice enough job; there are times she takes the images to a drug store, but really I don't see a difference. She does that mostly when it's a bulk group of pictures, or when we're out of ink (because…

A shame it all stemmed from a communication breakdown.

If you have any interest in any kind of sporting event, it's next to impossible to dump cable. I'd have done it a long time ago if I could find even a borderline easy workaround to watch Premier League and NFL games.

Any news on whether or not it can be used as a HTPC, to either stream content or allow it to be stored on the device and played back? That's mostly what I use my X-Box for right now.

Let's say I wanted to turn certain devices off at a specified time (kid's laptops and an iPod touch of my daughter's), but wanted to leave everything else on; would this allow for that?

There are things that I, ah, "obtain outside of standard distribution channels", but games have never been one of those things; I downloaded one once, and it didn't play right and it was way more of a pain than it was worth. That's just me, though.

The pistol isn't BAD, at least; it reminds me maybe a little too much of Han Solo's blaster, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I work for a rep of about ten different lines, so we have the best of both worlds; we get the lucrative part replacement money without any of the nagging "having to actually go fix the problem" issues (granted, our margins are slimmer than a contractors, but we also work primarily through distribution, so we always…

Right now I'm in sales (I do inside sales support for HVAC equipment, as well as run our network; since we're a small company, there's a lot of "other responsibilities as assigned"). I'd like to...NOT be in sales. ;-) In actuality, I'm not sure what else I'd do, as it hasn't really been realistic to explore schooling…

Okay, let's ask a version of this question. About a year and a half into my college education, me and my girlfriend (now wife) were in a really bad car accident, and I took a semester off. That semester became like 12 years. I have no debt from my time in school, and make an average salary now, plus really good…

There had damn well better be a fantastic Stefon sketch on this Saturday; he's barely been on all season!

That's actually good to know, because this is literally the only game that's been totally unplayable (Bioshock: Infinite had to be dialed WAY down, but it ran fine once I did that). Maybe I'll look into previous gen cards like the 6670, and worry about putting money aside for a better overall system instead.

Those were about the ones I came up with, too; I don't need it to play maxed out, just to run, but I'll probably go for the nVidia one. It's actually kind of amazing that I've never run into a completely unplayable game before this one, to be honest.
