    How Fast is Your Internet and How Much is it?

    Location: Sweden Price: "Free". It comes with the apartment. When they installed it, they raised the rent with about 2%(about 4 Euro). [edit] Also, no download/usage limit.

    Mexican Police Seize the "Marijuana Cannon"

    Saw this earlier today, had me smiling all day long. I wanna meet the people behind this, shake their hands and offer them scholarships to MIT. They have no business being in jail, we need them for bigger projects.

    Movie Defense Force: Freddy vs. Jason

    First of: Thank God for Jim! You set the bar high and you come through 98% of the time. I think the one(and only) time you crossed the line was with the whole "Dr. Genetalia"-bit. I do like this movie. It's a great...err... good slasher flick. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a "great"...

    You must move to a country that borders your own, forever - which do you pick?

    It's a hard choice. I live in Sweden, so I have some options. 1) Norway + I know the language + I have a passport + I technically own land - Its expensive - Its TOO expensive - Its been done before 2) Finland + Beautiful country, great climate + Kossu + KOSSU! + Sauna + Sauna +...

    The Political Compass test!

    ... I guess that kinda makes sense. I've never seen myself as such an extremist though. In my social group I'm kind of "middle of the road".

    Dealing with a suicidal friend

    Damn man, this sucks. I can definitely really to your problem, I buried a friend this August who committed suicide. All I really can say is that this probably isn't the place for advise. I'd ask you to seek out some professional for advice. Not for her, for you. Ask them what to do, and ask...

    Are these forums really useful?

    I used to find these forums useful and insightful, but lately that feeling has kind of faded. I still lurk around a fair bit, but it rarely ends with me posting something or voicing my opinion. I guess I'm getting a little to old for this forum, and the forum is getting a little to ugly for me...

    Terraria Goes to Consoles, PC Gamers Go Nuts

    I'm happy that Terraria is branching out to the console crowd. It's a game that I've play a lot and a game I've really liked. I liked it so much I even bought the retail "collectors edition", and I have that silly little plastic pick-axe on my key-chain. The game deserves all the players it can...

    What games are you getting in the last quarter of 2012?

    XCOM is the only one on my "must buy!"-list. I have some reservations about it, but I will pick it up regardless. I will play it, with hope in my heart. I might, and probably will pick up some other titles, like Dishonored and Hitman: Absolution, but they aren't equally as interesting to me...

    You are BOOLETPROOF

    I know, but one can dream. And I'm assuming that while hijacking a nuclear bomb, I'll come across some scientist who, with some persuasion, can jury-rig the bomb to explode when struck with a hammer on some spot. It's not like I'm worried about it going up in my face. :) [edit] Also, yes...

    You are BOOLETPROOF

    I'd get my hands on the smallest nuclear explosive there is. Getting it wouldn't be too much of a problem if I'm immortal... Well, it would be hard even with those power. But anyways, I'd get my nuclear bomb and just cart it around everywhere I go. I'd bring a hammer or something and always have...

    Best player-named weapon you've ever seen.

    I was running a couple of multi-player adventures through Neverwinter Nights with a couple or friends back in the day. We would rotate the "DM"-role around(every adventure was created by someone in the group). I was playing with a dwarf cleric that had a slight problem with humans. So many...

    So what is the advantage of a console?

    Now, I don't own a home console. But for my money, the biggest advantage is convenience, and that's a big one. Just to be able to "plug-and-play" and sit back in your couch and have a good time. Also, it's pretty easy to have on the road. A friend of mine came up to my town a while ago and...

    Poll: Father in rural Germany finds his young son likes to wear dresses; does the same to show solidarity.

    The story is really heart warming. The father seems like a really nice dude. If my(hypothetical) son had the same preference for clothing. I probably wouldn't adopt his fondness for dresses, but I would never scold him or forbid him for doing what he feels is right for him. In the long run...

    Favorite side scrolling platformer

    My all time favourite is Yoshi's Island. It's hard for me to make a cohesive statement about why. I don't know, I guess that game just "felt" so right. Also, really dug the art-style and the music was glorious. It's the only game that actually makes me drag out the old Super Nintendo, dust it of...
