There's a Half-Life mod that brings it to PC, along with one that ports the Decay co-op expansion.

So BB-8 is the modern Oddjob?

Its return was clearly foreshadowed by the meme using Windows, where "no" means "pop up again later".

"I slept with you because you reminded me of Ivanka, but you're actually a Tiffany."

Who else is better equipped? In my view it would solely depend on the lawyers that internet archive hires, and money plays a big factor in that.

The EFF. This kind of thing is why they exist.

The Archive making themselves an easier target was a huge misstep IMO. All it takes is one overreaching judge telling them they need to purge all copyrighted data (a common judgment in lawsuits like this) and the world becomes a worse place.

Spec Ops actually did have choices where you could be good (or at least less bad), but ironically people missed them because they didn't think being good would work.

For example, at one point you're being harassed by an angry mob of locals. A lot of players simply shot them because a lifetime of experience with shooters told them that no other input would be recognized. But in actuality, if you fired warning shots at the ground or over their heads the civilians would flee without incident.

You're able to run MemTest? That'd suggest it's not actually fried if it can still run things.

Check your BIOS/UEFI to see if Secure Boot was re-enabled. If your CMOS battery died and you didn't notice, your machine config could have reset to its default values during the power loss.

Honestly, as glad as this article makes me, I'd still like to see a perfect birth control for women. Periods seem like they must be the worst part of being a woman (biologically, not socially). Having a temporary, reversible way to stop ovulation without fucking up a dozen related systems and causing physical and mental anguish would be nice.

It should be noted the Irish team had the best catchers in the League, while the Bulgarian team was mediocre and carried by their seeker. And even then the Bulgarians only lost by a tiny bit.

If Rowling's goal was to show that other positions mattered, she chose a terrible way to do it. You'd have to be more than fifteen goals ahead in a game that often ends before a team scores fifteen goals, period.

Though you could do an identical meme with Games Workshop and Blizzard. There were so many people back in the day that didn't know Warhammer 40k had been around for over a decade when StarCraft released.

And then the same thing happened again when Dawn of War was released.

And that is all while ignoring that a republican congress will hold back the entire country for years just to make sure their guy looks better. And it works! People complain about shit not getting done but couldn't tell you how their representatives voted on those things.

And when something does get pushed past the obstructionism and helps people out, Republicans sometimes claim credit for the very thing they voted against.

"In English, please?"

Is the answer Linux? Because I feel like the answer is Linux.

I know it's basically impossible, but I wish practical suspend/resume game functionality would make it to Windows.

I believe you are correct. I had my MBR overwritten a few times back in the Windows XP days, but haven't heard of it happening on modern UEFI setups outside of warnings like these.

I still segregate my system drives out of paranoia though.

You occasionally hear of houses being hit by fragments of deorbited space stations or things like that. I'm wondering how much of our trash would survive a shallow reentry.

And also how bad spreading its aerosolized forms across hundreds of miles would be in the long run.

And it's partially your fault, you monster! /s

I own a cat. She's a needy cuddler. It's enough, most days.

Do a review of the movie and act confused when they keep sending you mail.
