  1. Xbox 360 vs PS3 (yawn?)

    how does that work? I can understand to compare graphic quality of different video cards using the same base (hardware and software). But how can you compare it when there is more than one variable!? If a game looks like crap on a PS3, but ok on a XBox360 then they probably did a bad job porting it. Which one looks better: ...........Apple................ ..............Orange........... Which one looks better: ............. .........Orange........... ................. ................. .............Apple............ ...........

    Hmmm... Rainbow Six: Raven Shield
  3. I'm rich!

    heh.. people from europe often buy from play.com because it's cheaper than here
  4. I'm rich!

    we need some kind of next-gen guillotine
  5. I'm rich!

    Quite aweful. Unless you know somebody in the US that buys it and ships it to you. Customs just loves to stall things like that for a couple of weeks.
  6. Elections in the Lowlands!

    I think you can blame people only using the advice of stemwijzer for that I call bullshit. Fortuyn had different views on certain key aspects also Fortuyn was never able to execute his "plan". The retarded bunch that remained didn't have any directions. You can compare Wilders with the LPF without Pim Fortuyn.
  7. Elections in the Lowlands!

    Partially here
  8. Elections in the Lowlands!

    I have my doubts SP will become a governing party. They can't create a left majority. and I seriously don't hope that the by heart communistic party that is ruled with an iron fist gets to rule a part.
  9. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    what were we talking about again? oh right... you've got to have options!!
  10. Elections in the Lowlands!

    Well.. it's not like coal is very cheap. It's starting to get quite expensive to reach the coal, and it's only going to increase. Maybe. But if you want to reach 2040 (in case you believe that) you will need to start using nuclear power until you have better replacements. Right now nuclear power is a very good replacement for fosilfuel power.
  11. Elections in the Lowlands!

    We've already got that technology: Nuclear Power Hot Dry Rock Tidal Power (not really reliable for constant energy) Water current turbine (couldn't find a wikipedia article for that; it's like wind turbines but underwater; but it's quite reliable to deliver a constant stream of energy; the largest issue is transportation) etc. Ofcourse there are a few popular but aweful alternative forms for renewable energy: Wind turbines This is a very unreliable form of power production and you need reliable sources. And ofcourse there are people complaining about horizon polution (but screw that). Solar power It's good enough for initial heating of water. For electrical power it just doesn't produce enough. And it's also not very reliable (something with "nights" and stuff). One of the biggest problems is that the people that make the decision what power to invest in are oblivious on the subject or complete retards. For example an offshore wind turbine farm. Experts concluded that it wasn't a smart thing to do. But the goverment more or less ignored the whole report. Even the failed experiment in Denmark didn't convince them it wasn't a smart thing to do. And ofocurse to develop these technologies you should make it interesting for companies and research institutions to do it here. Investing is research is often not a popular subject for political parties because they want results within 4 years.
  12. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    Interesting, even thought the titles says "elmuerte's thread of liessss" my lies (well, lie) are outnumbers by the lies of someone else.
  13. Elections in the Lowlands!

    Every ruling party\minister has screwed up more than once and they will always do. Ofcourse some take responsibility and others don't. Ofcourse they only screwup D66 made the last time was when their bluff was called. The other (2) things were not screwups, they were just failures in the execution of their ideas (or as I prefer to "believe" they were screwed by VVD and CDA (mostlye the former)). It's actually ironic, Verdonk screwed up (more than once), but only D66 suffered from that. They actuallt did the "left" side a favour. Ahh well... we'll see what will happend at ... 23:00'ish (depending how fasts those retards are with counting the paper votes).
  14. Elections in the Lowlands!

    not being conviced for 100% doesn't make it evil. I would say below 66% it would start to become evil.
  15. Elections in the Lowlands!

    I haven't dug through all programs to extract the real content and their views on certain subjects. The actions they want to take a nice to know, but (unless the get asolute power) they will have get other parties to agree. So, to get back on subject. I've looked mostly at freedom and privacy. D66 is one of the few parties that doesn't want to limit freedom and privacy. To know how parties think about these subjects you usually have to look into the subject of security. An other important factor was the behavior of the parties, and not only during the campaign. How they work in order to try to make the country a better place. Blaming others for problems without providing (actual) aid makes you and obstacle. Sure D66 did a few things I didn't agree on, or at least, too late. But at least they admitted their guilt and took responsibility for their behavior. But I still think it was a bad move. Another thing I looked for is hypocrisy (lack off it ofcourse). For example the two scales of discrimination. e.g. We are all equal but some are more equal than others. Positive discrimination is also a bad thing. In the end, I had to choose from the lesser of X evils.
  16. Elections in the Lowlands!

    none of the above, but apperently that's not possible. so I'm going to vote d66, based on principles
  17. Zune...

    no alarm? no world clock? no stop watch? no games? wait... what was it again? oh.. a music player... my music player is even better... it has an agenda, lots of games I can play and I can even phone people. Although I don't have a lot of storage.. only 1GB... need to buy a 2GB miniSD some time.
  18. Connecting console to TV

    The other two connectors on your TV are for additional speakers. It's a very old speaker plug system thingy. the composite/s-video to scart connector does not convert the signal, if your TC can't handle s-video data that connector won't do you any good. I doubt you will be able to hook up either wii or xbox360 and get proper video output on your tv
  19. Zune...

    Somehow the term "zunejugend" comes to mind
  20. Warcraft Adventures (old old stuff)

    I remember it very well. Was actually excited about it. But didn't see it as a major loss, just a shame.
  21. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    it was for a good cause; or maybe not
  22. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    pfff... thread of lies... that's a lie. It was only a single lie. And what's wrong with spending time to read the rest of the magazine. It's not like you have anything better to do.
  23. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    that's because I made up that part... I thought that would be obvious
  24. ELMUERTE'S Thread of LIESSSS

    That's because Archie Bunker is a fictional character from a 1970's sitcom and he doesn't know shit about game journalism.
