both sides have the 1rst objective of staying in power! sheesh! how long will it take to realise that. Stop accusing the other one to "do eveything they can to stay in power" because 1 ) it's true 2 ) it's true for you too. both sides try to cover up mistakes. both sides take any weenie detail and magnify it to reinforce their case. both sides care more about their image than the people that elected them. Clinton got a BJ, so what, Bush Jr went AWOL once, many of his family members have criminal records... I think you shouLd complain more about Monica who gave the BJ and made an hollywood celebrity of herself than about the one who was on the receiving end.

quote:Originally posted by Eclipse: quote:FDR made the depression worse?? When he was elected, the unemployment rate was 23%, by the time the next Republican president took over, it was down to 2.5%Unemployement rates do not necessarily reflect economic growth. FDR simply created a massive number of government organizations and absorbed the unemployed into them and thus redueced the unemployement rate, this doesn't mean that things were better than before because the money to pay these people had to come from somewhere: either higher taxes or borrowing money from foreign soruces. What this resulted in was a deficit and eventually the debt probelm we have today. In the short term what he did jumpstarted the economic cycle but in the long run it just created more problems. I'm not sure there was a better solution. FYI Canada did the same thing over here. Borrowed tons of cash to make roads and stuff that wasn't REALLY needed, but it gave work and money to people. .. and you have to consider that world war 2 did increased the debt by enormous amounts. The money to make all those tanks, aircrafts and ships HAD to come from SOMEWHERE ... As opposed to germany, the united states didn't piled up weapons and supplies for years before the war ... http://www.publicdebt.treas.gov/opd/opdhisto3.htm US debt in june 1929 (before the crash) 16,931,088,484.10 US debt in june 1939 (at the end of the depression) 40,439,532,411.11 2.39 times what it was at first On december 8 1941, the united states declared war on Japan, the declaration of war on Germany followed 3 days later http://www.law.ou.edu/hist/japwar.html june just before that, the us debt was at 48,961,443,535.71 then in the year of 1945, both germany (may 7) and japan (sept 2) have been reduced to a surrender, ending the war with a debt of 258,682,187,409.93 which is 5.28 times what it was at the start of the war ....

Someone in my PS outfit said he quit SWG because of the downright horrible framerates (and PS runs faster, while both games use the same graphic engine) and the fact that they put in perma death for creatures. TehBunneh - i can't say for you. I enjoy PS but PS and SWG are complete opposites....

Ambition. challenge. the search for prestige, the search for something to be remembered in history books. -
Modding: increasing carrier strike craft complement
Epsilon 5 replied to ToxicFrog's topic in Battlecruiser Millennium
furthermore, if a craft requires repairs/re-arm/refuel, you can dock it, give it for engineers to play with, and have the pilots launch in another one. -

now if the US could stop spending more money on the military and start doing SOMETHING in space beside observing how spiders make webs without gravity... china .. moonbase by 2010 ... russia ... starpath by 2030 ... USA .. war with whoever's next .. -
basically your best bet is to have spare parts to swap and test, hopefully.

I've reinstalled windows on my second computer, and while trying to update my computer on that website the updater window wouldn't download anything, and everything fails! I tried it on my main computer next, and it wouldn't work either.

nah, everything will change, they will find more oil, we underestimate our resources .. why do you think people have to die over and over because of some situation before a criminal law is enacted? The Titanic had to sunk before people realised we need to put enough rescue boats for everyone! but everything will be ok.

You want to see live footage? Here's something produced by Sturmgrenadier, a NC outfit on the Emerald server http://www.planetside-universe.com/files/d...oad.php?file=69 It's 106 megs, so please be patient, although it took me 5 mins to download it It's VERY well done and pretty impressive. You gotta see those 4 galaxies unloading troops on the base gun blazing. the zip includes a codec that takes a moment to install, FYI. -
i have win2kpro .. since win2k is an "older" os it will probably cheaper, since you are on a budget. I have yet to meet any compatibility issue. Say bye bye to dos though, in case you're using it, the closest thing to dos in win2k is the command console.
-
then it's probably the mobo only then
-
yes, anytime you change the CPU or the mobo you HAVE to reinstall windows. I think you can reinstall over (without a format) but if you don't you get a BSOD. you don't even have access to a command line. It's probably related to NTFS, but I'm probably wrong

The point of the video was to show something about the game with an added bonus - a short story, a context. Something special than just "the game". they could have just cut and pasted some extracts from the game seeing liberators bomb targets, but it wouldn't have been as cool. ... and you get to see formation flying Santiago is one of our outfitmates that took part in the movie making. You can see him in the credits when they get orbital striked, he's the 2nd guy from the right hanging on the liberators -

well .. with a video out on a computer .. and video in with another, along with a video editing program to add voices and stuff. The part at the end where they raise their arms is one of the game emotes. it took about 3 hours (if i remember well what Santiago said) to film it. -

For anyone that may be curious Malvision movies recently made a new movie about the liberator bomber. They had the luck of having GM support during the production. Don't forget to watch the credits. http://malvision.planetside-universe.com/m.../LIBERATION.zip ... of course everything is filmed ingame, if you have any doubts... -
