SpeedFan, but it's a pain in the butt to set-up. Never actually understood how to do it.
With SpeedFan you can control just about any PWM fan.

This is a list with the most noticeable FPS in history. Is Valve's CS:GO going to make a big difference?
This is just another shameless easy-to-produce-game so they can obtain more profit. MOAR profit. They're not even trying anymore to occupy a specific niche of FPS games. With the exception of TF2, Portal and the Half-Life series, there's nothing really special and creative in their releases. 2 zombie games released so quickly one after another? SHAMELESS!

Think about a Half-Life 3 release. It would rock the world. Heck, even our grandparents would know and discuss about it!
Um, ok, first of all fans have been asking for a new CS for years. CSS is like 7 years old, I don't see how a new instalment is a bad thing.
May I ask you what audience? 13 year old fappers? Yeah, they sure did.

Sure, you can go on and approve every new game Valve releases but it's being a ninja bitch about Half-Life 3.
CSS is 7 years old, but also the last Half-Life installment is approaching 5 years. And although CSS features maximum replay-ability(duh), you can't say the same for a singleplayer story.
So what makes more sense? To reinvent an outworn game that is anyway constantly bombarded by custom content provided by fans, or to release a damn continuation to a story we all crave about?

Humans are natural vegans, they are not intended to eat meat, but they can.
Not only they can, they're crazy about it.

I've resisted last week to not eat any piece of meat at all. I've eaten food without meat that is as equally delicious as a meal with stakes and stuff like that.
It's just that people don't know how to prepare their foods so they can stop eating so much meat.

If this won't be free for those already owning CounterStrike:Source, it's just another bullshit added to Valve's official bullshit list instead of focusing on Half-Life.

Valve is just proving that economics are far important than what fans demand.

Or it might be that Valve is secretely working on a huge episode of hl2 and doesn't want to spoil it. I hope it's not a delusion...

Overpopulation is not the problem.

Infrastructure and the methods of harvesting energy and foods are the real problem. At least that's my opinion.

Also, technology is supposed to transport us to other planets, making colonies and stuff. Where there are water resources( and there are a few moons in our solar system), the possibility of colonization is extremely probable.

I didn't read too much but if Dimbark's writing isn't good, and he is a native english speaker, then what about somebody like me? Yes, he is 12, but he is a native english speaker.

It shoots FullHD(1080p) actually, but never filmed at that resolution. Main reason is because my monitor isn't capable of such a thing.

Yeah but there are also 'star' screws.

You know, today I was trying to open an old 4 gb HDD that had these star screws(actually I think they're called torx screws) with a flat head screwdriver. Couldn't, so I used some pliers and force opened them instead :D.

It was an absolute pleasure to watch the HDD spin at 5400 RPM. Also, if I left my finger in the center of the metal platter, without tense, it would start to rotate at a speed such incredible that I could only see it blurred.
It was an awesome finger massage sensation.

Heh, thanks Archie. Always kind. That added a lot of horsepower to my motivation locomotive.

My problem with post-processing is that I know few standard editing procedures(like, say, applying a lomo effect or old photo effect, but even those I do not apply them like regular). It's mostly about colour themes though. I'm interested in these because they're useful for film editing too.

Do you know resources, suggestions, links where I could get directions on how to apply different colour\mood themes to videos\images?

Well Crollo, after you get that camera(hopefully soon), we better start some themed photography and try to come each of us with our best.
