Correct. I have an east German sitting beside me right now that never plans to become a citizen, even though she is eligible to do so. She has an SSI card, & pays taxes, just can't vote in local elections or hold (most) offices.
Selling out? Did you stop shopping at GOG.com when they started selling new games? Are they never going to have indie bundles anymore or something?
You certainly don't have any room to talk about high horses.
It'd be one thing if you completely skipped this Bundle, but you didn't. You took what they offered all the while shouting about how awful it was that you had to do that. You're like the punk kid that not only takes the whole bowl of candy at Halloween, you then shit on the porch.
I think I'm also going to allocate zero to the "Humble Tip" in at least the next few future bundles because of this.
That is an awful thing for you to do. THQ is basically giving their games away for Child's Play & the Red Cross & you're going to punish the vehicle they happened to use? They didn't mislead you in any way & word of mouth from this bundle will help bring attention to future *indie* bundles which can only be a good thing for those developers.
That totally depends on your state laws & how ownership of the land is structured. Also, Florida has some new interesting homestead exemption laws. Even as the taxes were this year it wouldn't be too difficult raise enough to cover it buy selling produce.

We have over 11 acres of very fertile & relatively high land in Florida. It's already zoned Ag-Res & paid for. My extended family has been farming for generations. I probably won't like it, but I'll survive. Hell, I may even like it not having to drive 90 miles a day for work.
And before you go there with any apocalyptic scenarios, We have large dogs, assault weapons, tons of ammo & quite a few close neighbors to make sure no would-be thief gets any smart ideas.
Not coding, but there is at least one *large* CATV company in the US that was burned so badly via contracting system design work to India, that they quit doing it completely.
I know this cause I've been fixing their screw ups.
The biggest design fuck-up in my opinion is that they expanded multi-monitor support, but the Win8 UI is absolutely horrible with multi-tasking (the main purpose of multi-monitor for most people). You can't have Win8 apps on more than one monitor, can't float them in their own little windows, can't launch another one without interfering with the current one.
Thanks. I'm a CAD/GIS guy. I haven't touched Win8 yet but those two little sentences tell me that would be bad news for my productivity.
Slashdot Mirror
Yup & she was one of the 1st ones over the wall when it fell.
You're missing the major difference. These are old games, that simply do not have any sales any more.
It was awesome for me since two of my friends were telling me how fun SR3 was for the PS3 & I was toying with the idea of getting it for the PC.

You've got no fucking clue what you are talking about troll-boy.
You are assuming the EFF even wanted to get involved with this bundle why?

Nice straw man. The gov't had fuck all to do with what we were discussing.

It will comfortably support a family of 4 in north-east Florida.
Are you stupid or a liar?
He's an AC, I'm guessing both.
Everyone buys food.
Except for those that grow it. If my wages ever drop that low I will stay home & grow stuff to eat instead.
Yes, Can't vouch for the manufacturer, but J&R (or hell it may have been Buy.com) has them on sale for ~$160 right now.
My Impreza has everything but the dash mount.
Alpha Centauri ...>
Without a doubt the game I most want to see re-envisioned on modern hardware.
FTL & Xenonauts (the 1st alpha at least) are great fun. The only KS alpha that I've tried that I'm not confident about is The Dead Linger.
This one is pretty entertaining too.

I haven't even touched Win8 yet, but that setup sounds stupid to hear you describe it.
Again, I take this back. Apparently my memory isn't what it used to be.
I take this back. Just tried running Catfish again & it works fine. It was the Palm Pilot drivers that refused to work for me.
The former *will not* work with 16 bit apps. I have an old file cataloger app (Catfish) & older versions of Microstation that I've tested this with.
It also requires any devices you use with it to have 64bit drivers as I discovered when trying to pull data off my old Palm Tungsten.
Yes, but that isn't using Windows 7 XP mode as the parent suggested either.
