I fuckin cringe when I’m sleeping and a mosquito fly over my head with that zzz noise ugh…
Yeah, because once that happens every movement of the air, each twitch of your skin makes you think something is crawling on you, and it keeps you awake for hours even though you are really tired and need that sleep so bad…
especially when you sleep around 4am and you need to wake up at 7am
reinstalling steam fixed gun sounds in ep1, but now my screen is covered with pink checkerboxes whenever i go underwater, making every area with water impassable 
Video card/driver problem?
don’t think so, looks more like a missing texture, so it looks like steam isn’t downloading the files properly
Right click the game, choose Properties, go to Local Files tab, click Verify Integrity of Game Cache?
(Steam should be run as administrator if you’re in Windows when you do this.)
Did that before I reinstalled Steam/the weapon sounds were fixed, but I guess I can try again.
Also, while I’m here, all that UAC and run as administrator crap on W7 is a load of crap, it just makes using windows more restrictive, even when you turn UAC off
when you first boot into a new install of Windows 7, before creating any accounts, press Shift+F10, open compmgmt.msc, go to local users and groups and enable Administrator, then in CMD type taskkill /f /im msoobe.exe
now you can be logged in as Administrator so no more need to click Run As Administrator, and UAC doesn’t show up no matter what its settings are
That’s pretty much the point. For people who know how to safely use their computers it might just be a hassle, but for everyone else it makes Windows a little bit safer by not allowing programs to operate at their own discretion. Not to say it’s impregnable now but it’s more secure than pre-UAC Windows. And you can disable most of the restrictions anyway.
Barely been a week and my ex already has a new guy. Some guy she’s been having contact with for months and I was too naive to think that it’s fine for her to help him tear down walls in his new house because I didn’t want her to think I’m a jealous sob.
I’m so confused and angry right now and I don’t know what to do. Ditch all contact with her, live with it, move on, … I guess moving on would be the best option, but I don’t know how.
Need to meet new people, but I generally wait for new people to meet me. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
There’s no way to properly disable it though, except by workarounds like what sersoft said.
I did it before by enabling the Administrator account and using that instead of the personal account created on install (and also deleting that one), which has pretty much the same results as what sersoft described.
In other news, still no luck getting a genuine install of W7 on that computer for my dad. Tried disabled different types of memory on the activator tool, tried installing SP1 before installing any updates, tried different OEMs (HP/Acer/…), nothing seems to work. Maybe the mobo is just to old to work with activators.
I should just go buy some CD-Rs and burn XP and install that.
Edit: @Bolteh, seems to me that the least you can say is that she was dishonest with you, so whatever the deal with that new guy was, don’t blame yourself. You weren’t too naive, you weren’t stupid, whatever. She mislead you with regards to her feelings for that person.
Not saying she did anything wrong per sé, but you aren’t responsible for what happened.
I think for the first time I have something to rage about in this thread.
Last week I applied for a contest to win a Galaxy S4 and I thought I won, but didn’t reply within 24 hours(they ended the contest 3 days early) so they gave my prize to someone else.
Today I find out that I didn’t win anything in the first place, it was a troll account.
Well, I’ve had time to think about certain things and I’m fitting different pieces of the puzzle together. This whole time I was thinking that I was part of the problem, that my worrying and doom-thinking caused it.
But thinking back on it, I started worrying when she seemed more distant than normal, slightly colder in her general attitude towards me. But now it struck me that she was always like that whenever she came back from helping that guy with his home-renovation (she worked as plumber for a while with her father). So my worrying back then now appears to be well-funded.
I’m not saying she cheated on me, for that I still trust her enough to think/believe she wouldn’t do that. But I am very certain that she developed feelings for him during the end of the relationship.
The thing that angers me the most in all this is that I’m certain she never really loved me like one should. I think it was more a case of “he’s a really nice guy that has supported me for many years now, maybe he’s the one”… But I wasn’t. And now I feel used, as if I was there to help her through a rougher patch in her life and then just discarded when I was of no more use.
We’ve known each other for over 10 years and now it seems she has just ditched me altogether, not replying calls or texts. I’m starting to realise that she’s a lost cause in regard of true friendship and/or relationships (considering that I was the only one of her “friends” to show up for her birthday dinner, but she’s still hanging out with them, not me).
Bah.
Why in the name of holy fuck does my Hotmail account need to be so fucking complicated to reset a password. I can’t use anything I previously used even after I swapped it 6 times.
@Bolteh: I hope things work out for ya later on. Been there, it’s best to just forgive, forget, and move on. It’ll eat at you otherwise.
Sorry to hear about all of this, mah bro Bolteh. Hugz for ya <3
On topic, OH MY WORD! I really want to get the Snows of Frostivus UI skin for Dota 2, but of course everybody wants a Dota 2 treasure key for it, and I don’t have a credit card or money to get one. Whyyyyy :’(
Oh boy, I know how it feels to be used. Been there, done that. It’s pretty pathetic of her to toss you away like garbage once she feels that you’re not needed. Especially since you’ve known each-other for 10 years and have, from your words, supported her, you’d think she’d at least keep it a good friend thing, not just erase you from her life.
I have a feeling she did cheat on you, the distant and cold attitude towards you coupled with her helping out this guy with his house, just the two of them, only to run off with him instantly once she breaks up with you, then sever all contact with you, it all seems like the typical red flags of adultery.
I suggest you stay single for a bit to let the scars of this shit heal. Spend time with friends, try and make new friends, game, do anything to get this off of your mind. Also, if her new relationship doesn’t work out and she comes back, I suggest not getting back with her. You seem like a caring guy, I can tell you really put your all into this relationship, you tried to make it work, you did everything you could to make her happy, and she thanks you by doing this.
You deserve better, I think.
Not his fault, Even I would spit on his fans! for making him believe he’s something
That picture needs to be spread to EVERYONE ON EARTH
Too bad it’s porbably fake.
