Drogue · January 30, 2003, 16:34

You know TKG only said that so he could get another couple of posts

Bring me a Yuumei no kowai na yajuu (Kass's drink) served ice cold and flaming... I need a wake up call

Kassiopeia · January 31, 2003, 08:12

I would like to propose a toast, to the Term VI government, to everyone who ran for office, and, most importantly, to all the people of this great nation/colony/thingy

*is once again engulfed by paperwork*

Method · January 31, 2003, 13:55

_{he gets free merchendise anyways for working here}

Kassiopeia · January 31, 2003, 16:09

/me serves drinks, since Maniac is... not here *

I never liked your silly Xenopiss, anyway.

Method · January 31, 2003, 16:20

oh that's right, you don't drink. here, have an apple juice.

_{/me grumbles....xenopiss? how dare he...}

Kassiopeia · January 31, 2003, 16:24

Uhm. I'm the bartender here.

/me takes the apple juice himself *

Mmmm, sugar kick.

Lemmy · February 1, 2003, 11:54

eh..how come this didn't show up on the forum page...i had to use the search function to find it

Kassiopeia · February 1, 2003, 11:58

Indeed. I was sure this thread had been *gasp* deleted

GeneralTacticus · February 1, 2003, 21:06

Do you want it topped so you don't have to keep bumping it?

Kassiopeia · February 1, 2003, 23:39

No, no no. There are so many threads topped nowadays. It'd just clutter the front page. If the thread needs to be bumped, it will be bumped.

And bumping means post counts

I think someone needs a PCR here...MIII-IIIIIIING!!!

Thought I'd share the specs of my future Computer.

Processor:
AMD Athlon 2000 (1.67 GHz) or 2100 (1.73 Ghz) XP. The difference in price is 20 e, but the difference in power isn't too big either, mere 66 MHz.

RAM:
512 MB, DDR, DIMM

Hard drives:
80 GB, IDE, Maxtor DiamondMax+9, 7200rpm
8 GB, IDE, from the computer I have now.
A 40 GB hard drive on top of that would cost 97 euros, I'm considering it.

Graphics card:
Ati Radeon 9000 Pro 64MB DDR AGP TV-OUT DVI

Sound card:
Sound Blaster Live Player 5.1 PCI

The computer would have three RAM slots, one AGP slot and five PCI slots. I'll overhaul any other things (CD-drives, monitor, etc.) from the old system. I'll probably have to buy a new printer, though it is not certain.

Cedayon · February 2, 2003, 14:35

Actually getting a computer, eh, as opposed to that lump on your desk that can't even hold SMAC?

Those are some nice specs btw...not that i didn't hear them a few many times in the chat.

You might even be able to play *gasp* Civ3 on that.

/me runs out the Rec Commons before he's lynched for saying the C3-word

Kassiopeia · February 2, 2003, 15:53

Civ3? Nah, I don't think the specs will do.

And that wasn't spam, I deserve a :dance: after all that bashing, crashing and kicking

Cedayon · February 2, 2003, 17:46

Yea, anyone putting up with that rock-pretending-to-be-a-computer deserves to dance when they upgrade

moomin · February 2, 2003, 18:13

Any particular reason you go for the ATI card over a GF4, Kass?

Cedayon · February 2, 2003, 19:45

I think ATI offered to toss in a Japanese Schoolgirl or two.

Method · February 2, 2003, 21:49

recently returned from the C(anadian)I(ndoor)R(owing)C(hampionships) in toronto. managed 10th place in my JrB (16+under) event.

but wow, a whole weekend without poly. i'll have to make up for it by spamming the whole week

Hercules · February 2, 2003, 21:56

You wouldn't do that, would you?

Mr. President · February 3, 2003, 00:07

He might. Don't provoke him!

Cedayon · February 3, 2003, 00:33

I need one of those "Yuumei no kowai na kaijuu" drinks to keep me up long enough to finish this scanner and parser...

Well at the moment, because the store only provides those... but I'm thinking of switching stores; on a new one, I'd get a 120 GB drive and a GF4 card for only a little bit larger price.

Of course, the Radeon 9000 might be all I need, since I'm not a hardcore user of games with 3D graphics, considering that my graphics card for the past four years has been a non-3d compliant card with 4 megabytes of memory. Of course, I could always take back all those lost hours of decent gameplay.

Kirov · February 3, 2003, 10:31

*Kirov wakes up in the corner with the biggest hangover he ever had*

Darn, only few days missed and everything's changed so much... Fascists appeared, we will be under FM soon and my home region has its governor changed...

Oh, and where are my trousers??

*Kirov vanishes*

Kassiopeia · February 3, 2003, 12:01

Okay, my Japanese-speaking friend (

) told me that a proper version of "creepy monster of the darkness" would be yami no kowai bakemono.

Drogue · February 3, 2003, 17:25

Have recovered from my "Lost Weekend" now, and will be able to resume proper duties. After all the work being Governor, I felt i needed a holiday

OOC: Sorry for not being at turnchat... 2 18th birthday events, and a celebration of our quater final victory, none really expected to go on for so long
