by Maarten Goldstein, Sep 26, 2005 3:39am PDTFinished Total Overdose as I expected I would; the last three missions were a ton of fun. Great end to the game. I just realized I rarely ever used the Loco Moves though, I just didn't remember to do so during all the gunfights. Slowmo dives seemed good enough to kill the baddies. NBA Live 06 is released in the US today and for once it seems the PC version didn't suffer a month long delay. The Live series is about the only sports game series that I regularly play, and I can't wait to see all the improvements. Too bad the PC version doesn't share the Xbox 360 version's graphics engine ;( Also on FileShack

I've known this one girl (she's 35) for a while, and I finally figured out who she reminds me of (Jennifer Connelly + Kristian Alfonso, the woman who plays 'Hope' on 'Days Of Our Lives'). I just happened to be flicking through the TV and saw 'Hope' and figured out the missing piece.
Bad idea (to tell her thru email w/ pix?)
(Or should I just forget this nonsense and go back to hitting f5 on this page: http://www.fileshack.com/browse.x?cat=3185 )

When posting a resume on monster what should you use for a title? Im looking to get away from the IT work that my resume shows and into something a little more business/people driven. Any title suggestions out there?

Do any of you have multiple degrees? I'd like to get a Bachelor's in Biochemistry, English, Philosophy and Psychology. Is this realistic at all? I'm not worried if it takes some extra time, just curious if you any of have majored in more than one field and succeeded and have any tips, advice or stories.

My computer has been running kinda slow lately. I've run both my anti-virus and SpyBot and nothing weird has come up.
I did notice that my Page File usage is a constant 355 MB when the computer is idle (I have 512MB of physical memory installed). What could be causing this?
Thanks Shack...you're my only hope.

HELP NEED COMPUTAH
I preordered and tried DoD:S. Having played DoD competitively years ago, I was really looking forward to it. This machine is a 1700+ with a 9600. It runs like absolute dogshit, and that's being generous. HL2 ran ok (long load times) at 800x600 but DoD stutters and skips like a crazy clown.
I put this box together myself but don't really want to deal with that again.

Seems most sites have the same conclusion, nice performance but just too late to the game. And damned that 1600x1200@60hz limit is just stupid.

Abit AN7 2800+
1 GB DDR433 ram

I've been noticing that my framerate is starting to hurt. What do you suppose the likely bottleneck is? Is it worth upgrading to an AGP x800xl or 6800gt? Or should I buy more ram? Or is the CPU the bottleneck so I should just go home?
I can never tell how fast technology is moving and I don't want to buy anything after this for at least a year. Will an X800xl hold me over through FEAR and ETQW??
Anyone down to play at around 9EST/8Central?

I have a table. organization_id, first_name, last_name are 3 of the fields (there are others). each organization has a list of ppl (first/last names).
the first and last names got swapped during entry. is there an easy way to swap those names w/ an update query for those belonging only to one organziation_id?
using mysql, btw
I've been playing BF2 Sunday Night Shackbattle since BF2 demo ... pretty much every week. And sadly I'm just done ... because of the JET RAPE. In Gulf of Oman last night, USMC had ALL the jets and it was just wall to wall JETRAPE. Me and several other shackers just left and jumped out on a general server of Strike At Kirkland. And it was AWESOME. Great teamwork, great tactics.
So next week, I'll be back on Sunday night. But I'll be trying to recruit shackers to a lightly loaded general server that is playing non-jet maps.
In summary, the best maps are the non-Jet maps. Or, this can be further simplified as:
JETRAPE = BAD.
That is all.

Me and my girlfriend are going to start playing tonight. I have a few quick questions:
1. How does one choose a fast server, depending on geographics? Is there a list somewhere? We're looking for a good, North American, East Coast server. (Currently I'm on Bleeding Hollow)
2. I already installed WoW on her PC, but with my CD key. How can I change it to the one she got just today? Do I have to re-install the whole thing?
3. We're going Horde - Her, a Troll Shaman (herb/alch) and me an Orc Hunter (mining/blacksmith, or something). Does this look like a nice combo? Unless someone strongly advise not to do this, I guess we'll go for these...
