    Is that a work perk you are wearing? Oh, and I still have not seen a video of you sniping the processor.

    It's a piece of cake to bake a GPU,
    If the solder's broken.
    Gotta do the cooking by the book,
    Or else that card is smoking.

    This will either make you rich and famous or come back to bite you in the ass in 5 years.

    I totally laughed out loud for a good five minutes at the song, Bobby. It came out great.

    And you're totally right about the boycott thing. The only way to get through to most companies is to simply not buy the product. They're not really going to care if you buy it and then don't play it- that doesn't really harm them.

    Totally agree here. I'll also add that pirating the boycotted game isn't a good way to get the message through either because 1) You still validate the publisher's opinion that even the boycotters will play the game and 2) It just encourages their desire to add lots of DRM, you know, to "enhance the purchaser's experience".

    ding ding ding. Online petitions don't mean shit.

    Now if the rest of the interwebs would realize this.

    +1 for having guns in the video :D

    Additionally, the complete debacle of getting Borderlands to work with Lynx and Canti made me "feel like putting a bullet between the eyes of every Panda that wouldn't screw to save its species, and opening the dump valves on oil tankers to smother all those French beaches I'll never see."

    Had a feeling you'd enjoy that part.

    The full version of my song is protected by the DMCA. You cannot have it. unless, of course, you install the rootkit that allows you to listen to the song once a day, thirty seconds at a time, after filling out a usage survey.

    I really don't know why people still flock to online surveys.. Are the masses really that dumb? To sign so many and never achieve progress should send a clear message that the process doesn't work. No matter how behind something I am, I will never sign another petition, it's just a waste of time.

    Hilarious that I still have the screencap of my anti-steam peition days. I was on dailup back then, and really hoped that I could help prevent such a service that crippled dial-up users. :rolleyes2

    Oh, and Butters, I'm going to hedge my bets on the latter... Lord help me.

    What's strange about it is that it wasn't an isolated case. All three of us were having the same issues, public and friend servers alike. Canti had played before without fault, but he was joining Myrmidon's game, and he had all sorts of ports forwarded to get it to work.

    That's always a safe bet. Gamespy does tend to suck the big one.

    Their choice of Gamespy is confusing as it is a failure.
