  1. Yeah, but breaking in to a car, JUST to steal that banana? Now that's a little extreme.
  2. All I can say is it appears to use a lot less memory than Firefox, and when left open for a while doesn't freeze for around 5 seconds every 30 seconds.
  3. I was initially put off by Chrome because I do not like things updating without telling me. On a slow internet connection in the middle of an online game, surreptitious unannounced automatic updates can be very frustrating. However I believe I have managed to successfully disable them through registry editing. I resorted to Chrome after Firefox's lag and bloat (even in Firefox 4) drove me mad. Since using Chrome, I've found it to be a pretty decent browser. I have Adblock running, but no Noscript equivalent yet. However pages load fast, the browser doesn't freeze, and it doesn't consume over 1GB memory after it's been left open for a day or so. I think right now the only thing I don't like about Chrome is the fact that I can't scroll along my tabs at the top like in Firefox, it likes to squash them all together, and I tend to be someone who keeps a fair few tabs open.
  4. Correction, this is why the human race as the capacity for invention. Most people will just fall down. But some aspire beyond that, and from those people now today we have our aeroplanes and whatnot, which fly amongst and even beyond the birds.
  5. It's counting down. http://www.aperturescience.com/a/b/c/d/g/h/abcdgh/ Around two and a half hours left at time of posting. Some people believe it's the early release of Portal 2. I'm wondering if it's the release of a demo.
  6. If it says you're using the wrong password and you can't remember what your old password was, you can use the 'I forgot my password' button on the login page to have it send you an email reminder.
  7. I remember Tie Fighter's intro quite fondly...
  8. I am afraid this is something only you can answer.
  9. Yup, Combine Advisors. I definitely hope we'll see more of them in Episode 3/Half-Life 3... But yes, they might make good administrators...oh sorry, custom titles.
  10. Well, I'm still after the name of the one I posted. I've had several people say they're sure they've heard it before, but no one can think what it is. Why wouldn't he? Maybe he would like to spend it. I'd invest it.
  11. All controlling?
  12. Awww, is that the last one already :'( Well the game is out in around nine days.
  13. What is your high score in Demonstar? If I remember correctly mine is somewhere between 5 - 5.5 million points. I honestly can't remember, it has been many MANY years since I last played it, but I remember it being fairly fun. Especially in two player, back on Windows 95...
  14. Personally I'd go Overwatch and Airwatch for our two Administrators.
  15. Administrator = Breen = Administrator What do you think? Clones? We have two administrators (excluding Ross).
  16. And for the final video of the new four before Portal 2's release, we have...boots.
  17. Well... good luck. Think of it this way: friday will be a nice day. Thanks, it will indeed be a nice day provided I finish it on time. It's looking okay so far, and a lecture has been cancelled tomorrow meaning I now have the entire day to proof-read and refine it ready for submission.
  18. Yeah, now it is, it didn't have a proper recipe whilst the promotion was on, but you could get it by crafting Spy melee weapons with tokens.
  19. I'm still working on my OS assignment. Which is due on Thursday.
  20. Rewriting reality may bother the game somewhat. You have far too much time on your hands.
  21. Should I feel honored or frightened? Both! Who is "BGT"? An alternate version of yourself where your name is in fact spelt 'BGTbullseye'? More seriously, I think there's definitely some interesting ideas here. I'm currently trying to think of some myself. Do you people think the Civil Protection title would also apply to Administrators? Or would they be better remain with the standard Administrator custom title?
  22. You are both not alone.
  23. So, has anyone else read the portal 2 comic? Personally I found it...intriguing...
  24. Hey I enjoyed Crysis quite a lot! However I'm perfectly capable of looking past the graphics when playing a game.
  25. Ah, but regardless, it hypes up the interest. People want to know what's happening, what the next clue is, etc. They don't even have to do anything, they can just watch the people who know what to do, who find the clues, things like that. It's quite fascinating really.
