    Error log

    Hi is there a win7 error log file? On startup this morning I had to go through the window repair thing after a bsod and I would like to know what the problem was.
  2. I just hang up on em without so much as a 'byebye'.
  3. Still taking 15? Well they made some kind of significant change but instead of rolling it back they have a hard on for whatever change they did. Or maybe they are just blowing smoke and screwed with it on purpose. Thus far they havent admitted anything except 'we are aware of the problem' type of thing.
  4. Yea saw that awhile ago. $12 for a bottle of wine to ask for a bj? Cheap bastard. 12 bucks hardly qualifies for basic cheap dinner wine. But as to priceless commercials, this one is much better imho. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1FDsKtF2vI
  5. True. Then again, it shouldnt be legal to shoot a bear unless he is licking his lips getting ready to eat you.
  6. More than that, it is suggested that they also throttled them by artificially creating huge bottlenecks at significant locations. Yes that magically went away. The question is, should we trust the big telecoms when they say what they want will be better us.
  7. All this Obamacare garbage is just that. Garbage. And that is because it is almost nothing like the system as it was first proposed to congress. Maybe that one would have been better and it shouldnt have been changed by congress... right and left... into the mess we have now. You need to go ask yourself what the major changes to the original were, who wanted them, and what they did to get them.
  8. Fox tends to say Obama this or Obama that but forget how republican presidents have done the same or worse. Funny how one of their commentators is Ollie North but they ignore how he got sent to prison for selling arms to Iran.
  9. Imagine if in the OW2 mod I built in advantages for players that wanted to pay me a monthly subscription for it. The more you pay the higher the damage your gun will do. Or how about a micro transaction where if you pay me you will immediately get a tac nuke. Sound fair? Free market after all.
  10. This has less to do with you and I but business. If you are a small company trying to get into the streaming market against a dominate company... say a HULU type business vs Comcast... their deep pockets will allow them to basically squash you like a bug by preventing you from even doing business and providing your product to your customers. Or if you are Microsoft, and want more bandwidth than Sony in a finite amount of space, you can pay the big telecoms 100's of millions. Of course Sony cant have that. So they outbid Microsoft. Who exactly benefits the most from this? Who loses the most since in a situation like this neither of them, even with their wads of cash, dont see that much of an improvement. Its still a battle for space. Oh and of course we get to pay for all of this with higher xbox-live costs. Unlike many things people like to compare them to there is a set total amount of bandwidth available. Like cellphones, water, electricity or others. You cannot wish up more even if you have 5 billion to pay. We have this problem here in my area with water. We have a set amount and no way to get more of it. Yet developers want to build more and more and more. They need water so what little there is gets divided among more places leading to shortages and rationing. Because of this new developments are huge battles between residents, developers and the city council that wants the tax money. Imagine you have a local delivery company but Amazon can pay the city huge bucks to have Amazon-only lanes on the streets. UPS wont like this so it becomes a price war. The most streets go to the highest bidder. Neither would you when you need to go to work. Sound good to you? Of course in a situation like this the city would make a ton of money. But what if every street in the city were privately owned? The city... and by proxy you... would get nothing. If anything you lose what you already have. The free market is great but should not be the knee-jerk solution to everything as tho the system was infallible and can do no wrong.
  11. Killcams are overrated. There are other more important things I am working on atm anyways.
  12. Uh, yea. No spin there. Nope. Nadda.
  13. Since when did 'leaks' become facts?
  14. Except for the Redskins thing, because its recent and ongoing, all the others are old news now and there is no new information. All you can do is keep reporting over and over what we already know. After awhile it is just noise. As for the 'green' thing for example, lots of small companies that the govt sends money to fail. If you want to call it that. Especially defense related. Many billions of dollars are spent, every year, to learn how to do shit. So the things they make up, and more importantly their methods and patents, often go on to great successes. Such as the failed company that made up processes that the US military now uses so equipment is much less dependent on oil. Perhaps you call that a failure because it wasnt an immediate success in the commercial world. What exactly have you learned about F&F in the last 6-12 months that you didnt already know?
  15. That is incorrect. I could say %70 of the American people think Saudi Arabia is an enemy of the US. But I cannot prove it. Doesnt mean I must be wrong because in the absence of being challenged to do so I could very well be right. In this case Stewart should have been. You ask to ask yourself why he wasnt. This is also the kind of thing that happens when a commentator on Fox says something as fact but nobody else inside the conservative world challenges it. Including other people on Fox. If there is no conservative equal to challenge Fox on what it says then it can present whatever it wants as truth. If CNN or Jon Stewart challenges it? They are called lying liberal hacks and their comments are worthless. True or not.
  16. There are mistakes. And there is spin. Fox has quite a few guests that fit the category of the one in question in this post. He was wrong and he knows he was wrong. The question is whether or not Fox consistently calls people on it when they are. Including their own commentators. News only gets a free pass from their supporters. Fox viewers give it a free pass when they are wrong or guests outright lie. Dedicated CNN viewers do the same. However two wrongs dont make a right. On the other hand when CNN does something truly stupid, and they do, it doesnt go unnoticed by the competition. For Fox there are no other media outlets on the right to tell them they were stupid. Its what goes with being the only game in town. If Fox had true right-leaning cable news competition things would be quite different. But they dont.
  17. Fox tells its viewers what they want to hear. No they are not unique in this in cable news. But dont kid yourselves they have a clear agenda. There is a difference between inviting people that are not politically correct... there are well known people on the left that fit this category as well... and people that are simply useful idiots. Check out interviews of people that do not fit their agenda. They are beaten down. What exactly is the point of unabashedly insulting guests on the air? Interviews with people that do fit their agenda are treated with great deference and spun answers to questions are ignored. I still remember the Sarah Palin question about naming a newspaper.... just one... that she reads. She couldnt. Even to just pick one out of the air like the Washington Post or something. Normally, so what? But she wanted to be VP. What did Fox do? They blamed the interviewer for asking the question. They still are upset at the presidential debate where Romney was wrong about something and he was called on it by the moderator. They didnt say she was wrong. They say she shouldnt have even said he was wrong. Almost sounds like censorship to me.
  18. First test demo for care pacakge space drop. Ignore the green smoke. http://social.xfire.com/videos/6316f2 There are several advantages. It is certainly faster. Still working out timing however. I dont want it too fast. The marker fx is stock so it doesnt need to be in the mod. The green smoke is custom. Rocket fx is the same as the jet afterburner and also stock. Simpler code since there is no heli or ac130. Several more allowed simultaneous drops since there are no vehicle limitations. I dont have the drop package from ghost but this is good enough and the regular care package is a complicated rig because it has all the team logos and also doubles for the decoy. I really dont want to mess with all that. This isnt strictly in the same realm as 'modern warfare' but the fun factor is more important than real weapons. Comments?
  19. Should have turned on the Benny Hill music in the mod.
  20. What do you expect? Fox also has some inferiority complex issues. Currently Dish network is going through the usual contract battles with their parent company over money. Next time it will be Fox vs Comcast or one of the others. This is America after all and we are seeing capitalism. They should be promoting this issue as a positive to show how the free market works. But their take on it in their commercials? Dish is 'censoring' them.
  21. Standard game max ranking is 55. I dont really know how it does it for 56+. It is most certainly mod related but I have no idea where it is nor have I messed with it. edit: Did some searching and ranks 56+ have to be enabled by the specific mod. Also, the max rank has to be set in addition to the points required to get it. Could be 62 could be higher. I dont know what the max is. Ranking in game is determined by your XP when it loads. Just to add, the max rank in this mod is 64. It is probably possible to do higher but as I said I have never messed with it.
  22. The rank you are given is checked each time you join depending on how many XP you have in your stat file. In other words, it doesnt save 'rank 65'. It just retrieves your XP and assigns the correct rank accordingly when you join. Also during the game as you gain XP. So you might also want to keep track of that over time. Is your XP changing in between games or going down while playing one? I seem to remember long long ago there was some issue about player XP being messed up but I forget what it was.
  23. If the mod has a different name then it is considered a different progression for rank. Just the way it is.
  24. You're welcome.
  25. Sounds like tournaments, when there is a set time for everyone to join, work well. Should do the same for other gametypes occasionally. Say once a month. CTF tournament?
