    Hallucinations: The Waking Dream

    Could be a floaters aka flying flies, which are not actual hallucinations, but actually imperfections present in the eye. Pretty much everyone has them, but you normally don't notice them. I've experienced it myself, and to me, it literately looked like tiny flies buzzing about. I've been told...

    I need an antidote to Game of Thrones

    Something fun? I'll suggest The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha (commonly known as just Don Quixote). It isn't a true fantasy book. Rather, I'd describe it as satire with fantasy elements - Though it does take place in 17th century spain, written by a contemporary writer (meaning...

    A clouded subject

    I smoke cigars occasionally, though I haven't smoked enough to develop a preference yet. I'd definitely like to try more cigars, but the price is holding me back. A decent cigar (as in, one bought from a proper tobacco shop, not those you can buy in the average kiosk) will set me back at least 8...

    Infinite universes and moral responsibility.

    If an infinite amount of universes exists, then surely there's an infinite amount of "I" who've traveled to an infinite amount of universes, changing the outcome of an infinite amount of events. In fact, an infinite amount of "I" have already changed all events that happened within this very...

    Poll: Do you want or need localisation?

    If I don't understand the language of the game (neither english nor danish), I'd like subtitles, but only in english. Danish localisation, no matter how well is was handled, sounds absolutely ridiciolous to me for some reason.

    Cute kittens versus dirty homeless people.

    Most people would probably pick the homeless, but I'm willing to bet the majority of those people would be more quick to notice and help a kitten on the street. "A kitten! Aww, I bet it ran away from its owner. I should help it!" "Homeless guy? Where? Oh, right next to my feets. Probably on...

    How long do you think until DVDs are gone?

    I think DVDs will stick around for a long time, because the only real benefit of Blu Ray (okay, extra content can be fitted on one disc - Who would pay a small-but-not-that-small amount of extra cash for that feature alone?) is the fact that it delivers HD video - A feature that require a...

    Revisiting content after gaining new knowledge

    Wait... You've read a Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen novel TWICE? Is it actually good, disregarding the technobabble? :P

    Revisiting content after gaining new knowledge

    About 10 years ago, I started reading the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. What an amazing series! I loved every bit of it, and afterwards held the series in high regard. Having lost my old books, I've recently felt like reading the series again and went out and brought all the books at once...

    Let's talk American football, specifically your favorite and least favorite team(s)

    It's not very often I get to watch NFL, since it's usually broadcasted during the night here in Denmark, but I do catch a game every now and then. Mostly I just play Madden, though... During the early 2000's I rooted for Minnesota Vikings, honestly mostly because of the name (I'm from...

    Poll: Thought experiment (related to drugs and alcohol)

    Alcohol is a recreational drug, so this question doesn't make sense, or well, basicly boils down to if I want to remove all recreational drugs, or just one specific... Recreational drug. I'll go with the later option. Recreational drugs are simply drugs which have a pleasant or interresting...

    Will This Work (computer component related)

    I've got 2x ASUS GTX 770 mounted in my Zalman Z11 Plus case, and they easily fit with a bit of room to spare.

    Poll: How much can you do when downloading?

    I can do whatever I want when I download. My ISP is really great, none of that "up to" bullcrap - Instead, I'm getting a guaranteed minimum speed of 50 Mb/s up and down. Usually, during the busy hours (say 6-8pm) I'll have around 70-100 Mb/s, but during the night when few people is on it have...

    First Time PC Builder Needing Help!

    I'd reconsider the screen. A single GTX 760 won't be able to achieve the framerates nececary to take full advantage of the screen, unless you reduce your graphical settings. FYI I'm running 2xGTX 770 in SLI and can't even manage 144 average FPS in all games (on max settings). If you, for...
