anyone pre order that retro 4 bundle? I looked up all the interplay games on steam and I dont have any of them on steam.... watch that one be the GOG title

 

[Hero Prinny]

Good morning my hoes! Today is going to be a good day no work, no school, no homework, & my shulk amiibo should arrive at GameStop for pick up later today. Idk if I want to play bayo 2 or evolve first, or hell, catch up on some shows that I haven't had time to see... Hmmm probably will start with evolve

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Welp, I dropped one of my RAM sticks on the floor and although it shows no physical damage it's dead. PC won't boot with it installed.

It's only a 2GB stick so I went from 12GB down to 10GB, but I feel OCD about it now...

I went from 16 gigs in my previous computer to 12 gigs. Annoyed me to no end.

I really hope that Spartan offers extension support like they're touting. If the extensions for that browser end up being as easy for Chrome developers as Microsoft claims, I might be dropping support for Firefox and adding support for Spartan.

Well dang. Unless Google ever gets their shit together when it comes to Chrome and multiple tabs, I'll never be touching that thing again. Hope Spartan turns out to be a good browser, especially with multiple tabs... Otherwise I'll have to stick to my enhanced client, cause I need my 100+ tabs!

I'm just happy to have the client version, ofcourse! But I wish it was a 'proper' program so I could have it automatically start upon bootup though.

 

[TheLetdown]

Anyway, the last game I bought was Ground Zeroes from Nuveem on 17 December, so next week will be two months without buying a game.

Is this not counting Scholar of the First Sin?

100+ tabs? And I thought I was crazy with around 20 and 10 on my phone.

There is a [/] code to doing it but a cheat is if you just highlight the text then hit the globe with the link button (called Insert Link) just above where you're typing then put in the address and it will do the work for you!

Thanks!

It wouldn't be any worse than the random assassins in Fallout 3.

Well... Ehm...

Good point. Guess it wouldn't be awful if it was implemented in such a way that you'd be able to do the kind of bounty hunting and such that was in FO3, only against other players if they did some baaaaad shiet to warrant a bounty on their head. Could be coo', I suppose.

Bruv... Bruv.

I've been above 300. Git gut bruv

[Chariot]

I hate having too many tabs open. More than needed make me mad. Bookmarks exist for a reason.

 

[rtcn63]

Firefox doesn't like it when I have more than a few tabs open. This thing eats ram, and I only have the 8.

So, I bought a WiFi router so that my wife can browse the net without occupying my machine. TP-LINK TL-WR841N to be exact?
Anything I can do to exclude outside access, wouldn't exactly want my neighbors to piggy back on my connection. I only allowed here mobile's MAC for wireless access, rest of MACs is blacklisted. Also set up a 25+ character access password, and obviously changed the default password for router access...
Should I install DD-WRT firmware?
Or is it that whatever I do, with WiFi, I am already dead?

Disable SSID Broadcast to hide your wifi connection from being detected by others. I should also do this for my three WiFi spots >.<

I haven't read that advice since 2004. Maybe '03. Don't bother, it does nothing. Just always keep the firmware up to date (and if there isn't any more support, buy a new device!), use the highest encryption and a superlong password. Ah and disable WPS if your Router has that, some implementations had security issues in the past and not all vendors bothered to patch them quickly.

It's useless? Ok, maybe it still can be scanned by more advanced tools, but how many neighbours would have this kind of knowledge?

Edit: Just read this article about hiding SSID.
Just have it still broadcasted, seems like more secure for some reason

You can create a MAC white list, but that will only stop people with little to no knowledge of networking, it isn't the end all to security. You should be fine with WPA2-PSK (AES) encryption and a strong password.

If you have security clearance concerns, your place of employment has an IT department.

It depends. The idea is if you turn yours off in an area where most are turned on, hackers will probably go attack lower hanging fruit. Now if someone is specifically targeting you, yes it does nothing as far as security is concerned.

Firefox doesn't like it when I have more than a few tabs open. This thing eats ram, and I only have the 8.

Chrome treats every tab as a separate instance of Chrome and tends to eat up as much RAM for three tabs as my Firefox does with 50. I think I prefer Firefox.

I talked with him this morning and he got it from his google+ circle. Apparently there is a clash of the clan hack from that site that is currently work so they thought they would give this a try.

[AbundantChoice]

there's this game called Snow that looks cool but I think that's just snowboarding?

It's actually more skiing than snowboarding. Their pricing structure is pretty odd; it's going to be F2P when it finally launches, but they're charging for Early Access.

[Freedom = $1.05]

That Arkham Oranges Mr Freeze DLC is a giant pain in the ass. They seemed to have cranked up the difficulty in such a way that i grew to detest all predator encounters in the game. And that final boss fight just feels so frustrating when you have to juggle avoiding armed thugs with trying to destroy the three items without being noticed by Mr Freeze.

It's a big meh, but i guess I should've expected that coming off of the meh Harley DLC from Arkham City. At least that game had the sense to not make it a chore to play through.

And with that, I've now played through all of the Arkham games up to Knight! He's my order for them, because i know how this thread loves lists and stuff:

AC>AA>>AO>>>Blackgate HD

Even with Blackgate being clearly the worst, it's still an enjoyable experience. I liked it more than Cold Cold Heart, for example.

I'm thinking those wings act like a spoiler on the back of fast cars to reduce drag, but maybe it could be for farts, who knows.

(Waiting on a PC reformat)

Same here though I've got a couple of plug-ins that really help out - one gives me a warning if it goes over a certain amount of ram and the other removes the tab from memory after a couple of minutes.

Using both them really keeps the memory usage low( ie 500mb as opposed to 1.2gb) and I rarely get a crash now.
