A = B B = C C = D A =/= D What is A, and what is D? (this is not a math problem)

I recognize the name... Probly either ran a dungeon with you, or saw you in chat at some point. (I'm Bobthegreat a level 85 Dwarf Hunter, or Bobthemage a level 80 Human Mage) On topic, I just reinstalled TF2, and got Planetside 2. (looks to be a cross between Battlefield 2142 and Tribes Asced, with just a touch of Halo and CoD)

8/10 It's slightly distracting.

You were supposed to be at 1606... 1607 - English colonists make landfall at Cape Henry, Virginia, later moving up the James River to found Jamestown, Virginia, the first permanent English settlement in what is now the United States.

1/10 for dealing with... That... You realize that each of these lines is a quote from the second season of Babylon 5, right? -

My top reasons for pirating... 1. It's free. When you're out of a job like I am, you don't have any money to spare for software/games, and since the only way to be proficient in the software (so I can use it on a job app) is to use it, there really isn't much choice. 2. DRM. Digital Rights Management is the scourge of the digital realm. When you have to be connected to the internet 100% of the time just to run something you paid for, and have a physical copy of, it can not only be troublesome, (internet fluctuations, etc.) it can be downright impossible. (if their server goes down, etc.) The biggest issue is that the DRM protection only affects legitimate purchases and the people who crack the software. (and they still get the stuff out within a week of release for major titles) 3. Limited time trials. 30 days free isn't very helpful, especially when it leaves a file preventing the reinstallation of the program for longer usage times. WinRAR got it right with their trial that just nags at you when you start it up, but still lets you use it's core functionality for as long as you need it. 4. Overpriced and under supported programs. Many programs/games are way overpriced for what you get. $60+ for a game that is over 2 years old, and isn't that good anyways... Software that you pay $120 for only to find out that it will not work, despite you meeting their system requirements, and then having to wait 4 months, through 3 patches just to run the software. (I had this happen to me twice, the program designers didn't care because they had all the money they'd ever get out of me) 5. Cracked programs usually run better. The people who crack programs are usually extremely proficient programmers, and more than once I have come across games/programs that had major issues that have been fixed within a week of release by the crackers, but the actual devs wait years before fixing the same problem themselves. (if they ever fix it at all)

Happy b-day to everyone, belated or not.

Yeah, no. I'm dead broke, and jobless. Living with my parents that just took out a loan against their next paycheck just to be able to fix a car so they can get to work... Can't buy a thing. (good thing I still have internet so I can pirate things, and burn them to disk as Christmas presents)

The first one is mediocre, but 2/Brotherhood/Revelations are good.

You know that updating the programming of a driver in Linux usually only takes about 5-6 man-hours right? So total development costs for the driver is less than $250, and they get tons of positive publicity because of it... The only reason they'd ever stop updating the drivers is if they finally updated the design of their hardware. They're still using the same basic structure as ATI cards from the 90's, and Nvidia has gone through 2 major hardware design upgrades since the GTX 9xxx series. (Fermi and Kepler)

10/10 I feel exactly the same way right now.
