      Don't presume to speak for me. I love social networking and a lack of privacy. You don't know me.

      Someone needs to make an ad where they play clips of the old Google bashing, privacy focused ads from MS, but with stitched-in readings of the new terms of service in the middle.

      you should turn off windows defender in windows 10 cause it blocks everything including the task manager.

    New Laptop + Win 8 + Login = Black Screen of Death. I hate Microsoft.

      Just be happy you have a sound system that works properly, unlike us Linux users. So, Windows boots and *then* you get the black screen? I was first wondering if secure boot got messed up. Some apps like LoJack change the MBR. I wonder what happens if a user installs LJ on a new W8 machine with secure boot enabled?

      Black Screen of Death is where the screen is black, the cursor works, and nothing is displayed. Has something to do with Win 8 putting the machine into a state where graphics can't paint the whole screen. Got out of it by accident, and it's been fine since.

    Out walking the dog at dawn this morning. Light-sensitive streetlight at the end of the street decides it can turn itself off. House, cars, and street near the light disappear in the dark. My first thought: a visportal closed.

    Quickest way to test all the RIT your WIP AI are doing? Set "timescale N", where N>1. Hilarity ensues. Little tippy-tapping feetie sounds as they scurry around your map are certain to put a smile on your face.

      Hmm.. someone can make a time compression device so that player can accelerate time while waiting in the shadows for the alert to pass. XD

      That's quite strange. I just explained to my wife why the fancy restarant in Monsters Inc. was called Harryhausens. It's like I reminded death that he was still around...

    So did someone ping modetwo via email, or did he just discover the forum was down? If the latter, we need to get his email address so we don't have long outages again.

      No one had an email address for him, will PM him now.

      Well, the server stil doesn't seem too stable. A few hours ago I tried to access the site, but it timed out after having worked before. Can't say when this was, though.

      Seconding that the site was unreachable a few hours ago.

      So if Mars is near Snickers does that mean they're in Aero space?

    The forum is FUBAR for me. Miserable response time, repeated posts, blah blah blah.]

      I just can't believe they'd base a movie off the most gutted version of the series in the franchise.

    What do I do when not working on TDM, you ask?

      Looks great. Is it also good for real time radiosity? I'd love to see the next gen treatment of a daytime city street scene.
