Yikes! Got sandblasted again when AFKing, so much so that the wire brush and gougers had no effect. It actually wanted a large crowbar or pick! ⛏
Probably not, for no other good reason than the other squillion games waiting on the to-do pile. 😛
Yeah, seems that way looking at this post at GOG, but things have changed somewhat since then. Reading from the general consensus from this thread at Reddit, if you were to acquire the game now, get the EE. In purchasing the game around 2007, the choice was not available, as Beamdog was not even embryonic. 😛Thanks. It happened at least once going back some time ago now. Not easy to pin down, so a different browser is a good idea. 🙂
Reported the diffed files as follows, the
mage.chris also different, so could have installed a character mod back then.Compare I:\games\Baldur’s Gate\Override with I:\games\baldur’s gate New\Override

A notable side-effect is the exception is not posted to any subcategory of Windows Events Logs, and the tab URL will not not show up in browser History. Used ChromeCacheView to search for any unposted text in the forum page, nothing.Heh, not unless you’re a super villain, in which case concerns regarding peace, order, and harmony in the community can be left at the door, assuming of course such an item will remain in one piece after your episode of rampant destruction. 😛
OMG, so many expansions to play- so tread carefully, for fear of falling into the evercrack!
Was never happy with the new liquorice bags, will there ever be a happy solution?
Shem the dog really likes the early spring sun!
On the list, (so long as Ming matches up with the character portrayed in the comic strip. 😛 )
Six Minutes to Midnight worked as a thriller – 6 or 7 out of 10 perhaps, the critics were obviously put off by extrapolation of the real life events. If they expected more from the film, what?
Funny how Body Double initially flopped. Here’s the trailer:
interesting cast selection, esp. Dennis Franz, and check out the penthouse. Definitely want one of these over here! 🙂
The Tail o’ the Pup hotdog stand featured in the opening scenes, overjoyed to see it recently restored! 🙂There are confirmed issues of issues with adding and launching shortcuts in Windows 11… Stay tuned!
Okay, so you did have four monitors hooked up to the old desktop rig, do they all have dvi/hdmi/displayport connectors?
Sounds like the new monitor is the one and same in use, right? (Still very much in antique DVI land here, and HDMI still for the televisions. 😛 )Oh, well while the weather is warming up for spring, the pebble button is wanting the firm touch again. Must be the contacts literally shrinking from the very idea of coping without all that nice permafrost around! 😛
And yes, definitely not running the Vax or any other heavy equipment (jackhammers, compressors, generators) near this rig whenever switched on. Sensitive, (and not so) new age connections, if you know what I mean. And, kid gloves, so as not to precipitate any kind of impromptu spiral descent. 😛Is it W10 still on the laptop, or has it upgraded, and did you end up managing to connect two monitors on it?
Could be, next time it happens, we’ll set up a crime scene, won’t be too long as there were one or two new arrivals today.
Yes, he updated it religiously, here are snapshots for 2005, 2010, and 2015, after which the site was revamped.
Subliminal is a nice turn on Superliminal, as seen in the trailer:
Um, sounds like you might be considering loading up Starfield.
Not tempted to see the TV series then?
After years of swarms of vinegar flies happily feasting on the citrus/onion scraps in a bucket in the laundry, there has occurred a mass extinction event. Possibly bacteria, but no perceived odour.
Tweak Guides lives on thanks to xjdhdr! 🙂Going to play The Sims on Windows again? Might go nicely with Vulkan on Linux.
Yes, MAD has gone entirely to Reprintsville, there will be nothing like it again, I’m afraid. Yet, … still looking. 🙂
Sounds like they they have found a template, or at least the rock had an idea of what you were looking for, and ran off to get it!Ouch! All my kerf for your surf & turf, herbs and spices from yonder werf!
It was the original, and back on the watchlist as might have confused it with something else. 🙂
Don’t get all of the negative feedback on Legend, even though Scott did take on the task of pruning a fair chunk off the original to “suit the locale.” It’s a fantasy after all, and seemed to be adequate for the genre, although some of the scenes were derived from such stock that might be described as somewhat “kitsch iconic.” Some of the events in the story & scene switches jerked on the senses a bit, and being a Fantasy focussed on Cruisey “valorization”, the dialogue was to be interpreted as music rather than anything that had to be put to the understanding. Wonder if the voice of the vampiric Darkness could have been the source of inspiration for The Transcendent One in Planescape: Torment? 🙂
Goldsmith’s original score was very good, as were the follow-ups, many of the youtube video clips may incur copyright censoring, so the following may not be around for long:
Second one is more in character, also like the retro ones.
Always thought pork fat was much healthier than beef fat. Turns out, not that much. 😛Certainly, or even some aspect of the card itself. Has been tested before. Nothing in the NVIDIA logs of interest, the times of the logged events (adjusted to local time only in their backup files) all point to the time when the driver is loaded. Nothing in the shell, CBS or DISM logs either.
And there’s always the drama with bootup. 😛When considering trying out the unpaid version of Personal Vault (PV for short), be urged to read the fine print beforehand, or incur all of what has befallen to this poor user in resorting to threads such as this for reference.
The extra 2FA security layer did look attractive at the time, so, upon activation through the explorer shell, the first epiphany came through loud and clear that nothing will happen if no files/folders are stored in the PV. After depositing a file in there, it’s not long before one finds out the unpaid version of the Vault will only hold a maximum of three files. If you place in there a folder containing more than 3 files, it will change colour, and the tooltip will be “Your Personal Vault is full.” As a matter of interest, stored an empty folder, and rebooted. A nasty series of notifications popped up, indicating the PV is locked, and the entire OneDrive synchronization will remain suspended until said PV is unlocked (to facilitate access to the grand total of one empty folder mind you.) In order to unlock it, one has to go through the 2FA process, where MS have turned off auto-suggest in the dialogs so that usernames and passwords have to be manually inserted. You then find that the PV automatically locks after a period of inactivity – 20 minutes on the web is default, but can be increased to four hours in the One Drive SettingsAccountpage. To make it easy for users, this One Drive Settings page cannot be accessed from the usual settings dialog, only by right clicking the icon in the explorer navigation pane, and Microsoft have conveniently provided no hyperlink shortcuts likems-settingsfor quick access toOneDrive-Settings.
One consequently finds that after repeat exercises of the 2FA unlock, the fun element begins to lose its shine, as does the prospect of running the PV at all, thus bringing the disable PV option into focus. Can be done, and as it so turns out, only through the browser interface, as opposed to the enabling exercise carried out above.
Ah, the things we do for the sake of security! 😛Sword Lord of the Goblin Horde? On your guard pard, smite ’em hard!
OMG, their 50th Anniversary up, and playing at the StoneDead Festival this weekend – great place to meet up with fellow zombies!
The size of the collection of Alex B on YouTube has now even superseded those such as erstwhile contributor Richard Maraña who shared vinyls of yesteryear from countries all around the world: Here’s one of them:
Some of the others like Universal, Various Artists, and The Orchard Enterprises are really big. 🙂How odd! On the desktop it is the submit button, so if the post body is empty:
- Error: Your topic cannot be empty.
Your call entirely, actually not unhappy with the way it operates right now. As long as folks know it’s under the auspices of WP and not something else going on with the browser software. 🙂
