No, that just shows that he's a schizophrenic that takes a card game too seriously. Also he needs to fix his hair and stop wearing a brick around his neck.

Why did you post a .BMP? It's 55KB! It'll clog my tubes!
(Seriously, at least use Paint to compress it to a .JPG)

Hello!
Stop posting pornographic content, there's kids on this site, lots of them.
Australia = Empty desert + Thin strip of fertile land along the coast

new york - when it's nighttime, you can't see or smell the trash
1024 x 768, No filtering (bilinear), DX7, blob shadows/reflections, medium textures/ models/ etc, full screen, props fade past 20ft., high quality sound, no vsync. I thought my system wouldn't be able to run it at all so this is ok.
It's fine as the last time I needed to boot up was 1/2 a year ago. I set my computer to go to sleep after 30 minutes and stop the hard drive after 60.
My PC from 2003 is still fine for everything I do. I don't get people that buy a new computer before a new version of Windows.
"HP Pavilion a255c"
Pentium 4 2.66GHz (No Core/ HT/ other crap)
512MB of PC2700 DDR RAM
120GB Harddrive that spins at 5400RPM & uses Ultra DMA
Nvidia Geforce4 MX 440 (4x AGP due to motherboard limitations)
Runs Source games at 50fps
Rips dvd movies with handbrake at 115% real time
Rips music CDs with LAME at 1500% real-time
Takes 20 minutes to boot up (stupid Norton 2007)

What's with all the hating and anti-homosexuality?
What will they do next? Add a shotgun?
Until someone robs you with a gun.
The permit is $200 a pop. If you happen to buy a grenade launcher (cost of rare grenade launcher + $200) for the high explosive rounds, each round is the cost of the rare round plus $200.
@Ansith: I have a box running with Windows 98 with those specs. I can't even imagine running a new version of windows on it.
HL2 textures = Half-Life 2 based?
Is anyone really stupid enough to get Vista just for Halo 2?
Halo 1 on the PC was terrible enough, requiring more computing power than Half-Life 2 and looking worse. Also they let kids with 500+ ping dial-up connections host 30 man games so your game would randomly freeze when it wasn't your turn to receive some bandwidth.

Steel beam grids, haven't they been around since the early 1900s?
But using DirectX = kickbacks from Microsoft and possibly less work?
A [perpetual] war.
It will in a year or two unlike Linux which is in a perpetual state of catch-up without official drivers.
Oh snap!
I am 100% sure that Windows Vista will be mainstream. It is a certainty like death and taxes. Windows will dissapear when PCs as we know them today dissapear. The Swedish police and French government are not mainstream and they'll have to deal with unsupported hardware and 15 open-source versions of solitare distracting people. "All sorts of companies" use Windows: http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/a/a4/250px-Blue_Screen_Phone.jpg (not just on embedded devices like ATMs but on PCs, registers, PCs connected to sewing machines/ heavy machinery/ air traffic controller PCs, etc).

Vista isn't that bad. They've made all sorts of subtle inprovements to it like seperate volume sliders for each program. Back when they first announced the required computer specs, I was floored, but now those specs are the norm. (You'll still want a really fast CPU, dedicated DX9/10 graphics card and 2GB+ of RAM though. Ironically, as I found out using my friend's computer, is that these specs only run Vista comfortably rather than insanely fast in XP.) Once Vista becomes mainstream, the chicken and egg problem of software releases/ bug fixes will be solved and there'll be no problem with Vista. But if you want to jump ship and use a less compatible, harder to use or more expensive computer, fine.
Hey, for $250 I get Windows, which includes:
- A shiny new version of paint
- A shiny new DVD
- A shiny new GUI
- A shiny new copy of HD DRM (i'll have to get this eventually)
- A shiny new EULA to sign off my privacy to Microsoft
I'm buying Windows Vista off my local store's website right now. Home Premium flavor.
The first thing Linux can't do is: games (such as Half-Life)
So what the hell can you do? No one's manage to get actual proof out on JFK's death and aliens.
Stop viewing porn and clean your computer of spyware. It's not Steam.
Time zone differences?
I take 9/11 and any other conspiracies this way:
If I assume that 9/11 didn't happen as the government told us, i'd have to not believe everything else the govenrment tells us. Might as well start an anarchist revolution. (Also conspiracies are full of shit relying on video grain/ noise and misinformation.)

Highlander, define "runs fine" lol.
Steam using 150MB is still a fact, whether or not my computer is "quite slow".
P4 2.66GHz (No HT/Core/ other crap)
512MB of PC2700 DDR RAM
120GB Hard Drive (5400RPM, "Ultra DMA," 80% is free space)
Nvidia Geforce4 MX 440
Before you idiots scream "OMFG GET TEH DUAL CORE," do I really have to upgrade to the latest and greatest just to web browse/ play Half-Life based games?

Stop verbing nouns!
You know it. The only time I use IE7 is for Windows Update.
When I launch Steam my total memory usage jumps from 200/512MB to 350/512MB. That's worse than Firefox (which I uninstalled).
It's is partly Steam's fault. Why fix all the bugs when you can release an update soon...
Oh wow, that was great. Thank you.
Saw1833: I've got a copy of the .bsp, readme, and some bot navigation file but the custom .wad is nowhere to be found in tubes around the world.
The thing about this is that schools now are willing to do anything to prevent another Columbine. But they're only going after symptoms, not causes (pettyness, bullying, quarreling). We can ban all the things we want, expel kids for any suspicious behavior, but school shootings still occur.
Huge ass P.S:
(There's a also a hint of bigotry when it comes to reporting shootings. When the shooter is poor/ a "bad" ethnicity, they just say he was troubled and the parents were letting him or her worship satan/ abuse animals. When the shooter is asian, they hint that all asians are one homogenous gaming, mentally-ill group ready to shoot up their work/ school/ mall. But when the shooter is white, and from a well to do family, the news searches high and low for a motive. Not whiteness (you never hear it was a "anglo-saxon" or "white" shooter), not wealth (rich kids get bored and cause trouble, some acts recorded for posterity on youtube), neighboorhood (everyone goes to watch their football team lose), or parenting. It's because he or she didn't listen to mainstream pop music/ not in band, 2 sports, & 5 clubs to keep him or her busy/ played GTA/ wore non-mainstream clothes/ lives in the US, thus granting him or her an endless supply of cheap "assault semi-automatic .50 caliber armour-piercing baby-killing machine guns." It's never bcause they're white. Almost everyone of these school shooting broadcast on 24-hour news networks had been perpetrated by white males.)

I've seen something like this in the Sven Co-op map "Puchi." The 5-inch garg is hilarious as it has 5x the power of a normal garg (like being in the way of a hydrogen bomb).
"Grand Theft Election 2000"
Several thousand non-felons were kicked off the eligible voter rolls for being felons. This happens at every election, but when the difference was just 537, every vote counts. After elections get this close, these random technicalities start to matter

You all were wrong. It's a key to use on HD-DVDs
