SETI is a big waste of time and resources, we have yet to detect any sign of intelligent life on Earth much less on another planet.

God Fucking Dammit. Trying to get the A rank in RE: CV and made it to the fight with Alexia after saving claire. Stupid me I ran straight into her when I regained control after the fmv and she one hits me.
fuckfuckfuck.
It's not that aliens don't exist, it's that beings advanced enough to visit Earth are not detecting any sign of intelligent life and they are entirely indifferent to us.

"In Lovecraft's work, human beings are often subject to powerful beings and other cosmic forces, but these forces are not so much malevolent as they are indifferent toward humanity. This indifference is an important theme in cosmicism."

Don't upgrade to Windows 10 just for one game, if you want my opinion.Quote:

The answer is no, you can't run DOS natively on modern Windows but you can run Windows 95 on a virtual machine. I posted that link for the sake of convenience, so that you don't have to download and install an ISO.Quote:

Just curious.
You can boot DOS from USB, you'll need to create an installation on a USB stick.Quote:

Anyone know of any good, not too expensive HD capture cards?

I can live with it since I wanted this content but didn't want to buy a Switch again yet due to the prices. :wacko:Quote:

Somebody suggest me some torrent clients that are decent here in 2020.
Also something for mp3s, the Windows 10 included thing seems like garbage.
I use a little music player program called Musicbee. Fairly simple to use and it downloads coverart etc. plus it shows the lyrics for whatever you're playing. Should be free.Quote:

I use Torch for torrents, it downloads cover art when available.
I use qBittorrent.
I don't listen to music on my laptop so idk about an mp3 player.
I don't really use torrents. I prefer direct downloads. Though torrents can come in handy.
If you're going to use private trackers (now or maybe in the future) pay attention to clients that might be prohibited.
I've heard of that before I'm sure. Looking at its download site and that it's on Sourceforge it should be perfect.Quote:

So I'm looking at doing all that work on a PC and tossing it on the phone to leave it running unattended.Quote:

I'll give it a shot, thankies.Quote:

Avoid using utorrent it's just shit, old versions are ok but magnets can be broken and also udp trackers may or may not work.
Yeah, I mainly used utorrent since wayback when they were the best, and knew they went to shit. I tried one of the first shit versions and I went "lol nope" grabbed an old version and just left it running for years.
Few things haven't gone to shit yet in 2020, alien invasion would either be the end of a shitshow or an improvement.
Hey Ragnar, have you seen this?!
Interesting idea.
