  1. I like new looking cars because hey, that's what ALL vehicles will look like soon. Maybe even more "futuristic".
  2. Seriously, it's people like you that make me with humanity was wiped off the face of... everything, really. That kind of attitude is what gets the world into situations like the one it's in now. Humanity must realize that to continue to survive and strive as a species, we have to put aside petty differences and work together to solve problems. Many of the biggest problems in the world today could be solved if everyone would just STFU and work together to fix them. Not bitch about their own petty quandaries. Now on to Steve Jobs. Apple might be a money whoring company, but again, in a capitalist world, what company isn't. But Steve Jobs changed the concept of not only the Personal Computer, but also the Personal Music Player and many, many other things. http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2011/technology/1110/gallery.how_steve_jobs_changed_the_world.fortune/index.html You have a sad, sad, argument if you quote Uncyclopedia for information. Don't you get that that site is a parody of Wikipedia, and people say whatever the hell floats their boat? It is a biased, extremely untruthful site, unlike Wikipedia which at least upholds standards of objectiveness and references for content. It is not a site to cite. Also, seeing the pictures of the historical flags of the East India Company, their flag didn't even look similar to ours until well in the 19th century, decades after our flag had been established. The earliest form of the true American flag, not including the Grand Union flag, go back to the late 1770s. The first design of the East India Company that looks similar, though based on the design of the Grand Union Flag (when the US was still a colonial republic of the United Kingdom) wasn't even in widespread use until after that time. Man, the Off-Topic section really needs to have a Debate Sub-forum, where you can start topics to discuss and debate... topics. A bit like Philosophy class at school.
  3. Read the comment. I didn't say we specifically invented the internet as we now know it. I know that the World Wide Web was invented at CERN. What I said was the first ancestor of the internet. The first networks/data transfers happened decades before the World Wide Web was even thought of and it was in American universities and research facilities. Might I also ask from which part of the deepest fathoms of your posterior did you pull that ridiculous 'statistic' out of? 9 out of 10 inventions are rip offs from other countries? Really now? Find support for that statement. I dare you. The fact is, and no one can deny it, without the technological innovation and driving force of America and other countries like even Nazi Germany (No, I'm not saying I support them. I'm saying they were decades ahead of any other country at the time), you would not be living life as you do now. http://www.mainstreet.com/article/smart-spending/technology/how-world-would-be-different-without-apple-steve-jobs http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2006/07/a_world_without_america.html http://www.noozhawk.com/local_news/article/051510_harris_sherline_a_world_without_america/ Those are all American right there. While I agree America has fallen off the top in recent years, name one other country that has influenced the world so much in such a small time span. I for one plan to continue our technological drives by earning a BS in both Physics and Alternative Energy Chemistry as well as Masters and Ph. D's in Astrophysics and Astronomy (and possibly an alternative to one being Cosmology), not to mention having a strong structural engineering/architectural background to go along with those.
  4. (I don't care if this offends some people. Just don't click on it if you don't want to see it. Simple 'nuff?) Honestly, whenever I think of the US I think of all the Britfags, Eurofags, Trolls, and other idiots on YT who demonstrate they know nothing of the world and have nothing better to do than constantly harp on America for being fat (even though the UK isn't incredibly far behind in the fat scale) and think that everyone here is an unintelligent hick (which I might almost give them, though I could say the same about a LOT of Europe as well, having been there quite a bit and even being a European citizen). I just wish more people would realize how much more the world would suck without the US and what we've done for technology (hell, you wouldn't be reading this without the US having invented the first ancestor of the internet), ideas, culture, etc. and would also know that we may be greedy, selfish, and arrogant (who isn't) but we are also the most giving country in the world. In fact, the only country that even comes close to the amount of foreign aid we give is Saudi Arabia and they aren't even close (something like $500 million vs. almost $3 billion).
  5. Pwnt. Besides agreeing with NFK and those who are more mod-literate, I would also like to point out that the cars pulling over would cause a whole lot more problems than they would solve. For example, if two cars wanted to go to the same place to pull over, you'd have a huge scripting conflict going on, and it would quite possibly cause a traffic jam (especially if the freeplay map has extreme traffic density i.e. Hoppah's map) that would just ensnare your own units. It's better just to leave it alone and bite your tongue. If you're having problems with the traffic, then you're just going to have to fight your way through.
  6. Vanguard, y u so overpriced? $100 combat boots, indeed.

  7. A little late, but I did answer. Some worthwhile bugs I get: So far, whenever I attempt to play either the Gas Attack or the Bomb Attack missions, it always CTDs as soon as I hit load. I have no idea why it does this; I've looked in the Logfile and all it says is that there's something it's not able to find (some start video), though I'm not entirely convinced that that is the cause. So far I've only observed it on those two missions. This hasn't always happened to me; it only started during the last few versions of the mod. I've included the logfile for reference. logfile.txt
  8. You don't need the ModInstaller to install the LAMod. It comes with its own executable file which will automatically install the mod with your selected settings. It should be wherever you unzipped the .rar to.
  9. You know, for what it's worth, North Korea is probably the best third world country lol. I mean, they had some of the right ideas like Socialism, the only economical system that makes sense (despite its many faults) and a totalitarian form of government (being the most efficient type of government, despite its many faults as well) though they kinda went and FUBAR'd the whole place.

    MW3

    I was kind of disappointed in MW3. Campaign was OK, but MW2 kicks ass in that department. Multiplayer is better than 2 from what I've seen (and played) and can be fun but is still a laggy, unbalanced mess. Again, the only MW with a good multiplayer was the first one, which still has the ONLY balanced, fair, no-BS COD multiplayer is is still some of the absolute best of any FPS out there.
  11. AHAHA can I Facebook quote that? I love the mods here.
  12. In-N-Out Burger, FTW. Best and freshest fast food I've ever had.
  13. Same Garry's Mod was once a modification of the Source Engine (Half-Life 2, Counter Strike CS, TF2, etc.) that allowed you to essentially do anything you want using the Source Engine. Any games you have running that engine will give you additional content to use, plus you can DL much more online or ingame. It's now a full game on Steam, and I think it's still $10. Go on Steam and search Garry's Mod or go here: http://store.steampo...d.com/app/4000/ One more thing this topic should be in the Other Games Sub-forum (hint hint Mods).
  14. Bit of the wrong forum but to do this you need to edit the camera bounds found in the config files. To do this, go to whatever folder your EM4 is in (in my case it's C: - Program Files (x86) - sixteen tons entertainment - Emergency 4 Deluxe. Then open the config file (in my case em4deluxe.cfg) with Notepad. Back this file up in a secure location, because you'll need it to revert. I believe (it's been a few years) you edit the value: <var name="e4_mincamz" value="1400." />, where 1400 is what I changed the default to, and it should go in farther. I think hitting the Pause button on your keyboard also activates Freecam.
  15. Wrong, the Belgians invented French fries. I'm pretty sure I've been through towns with less than 23 people here in the states (I think there's a town in Iowa with 1 person). How recent is that record?
  16. I'm pretty sure it's a US thing. Seems like something we'd do.
  17. Unfortunately, there is no easy description on how to do this. If you actually want to have the units spawn there in Freeplay, it will require Triggers, VOs. and major scripting. Even an openable gate takes naming, etc. and is time consuming. If you want, I could help walk you through the gate part in more detail, but for the scripting stuff you'd have to ask someone better with EM4's code than I am.
  18. So you refer to your laptop as your wife now? Harsh. (I jest, I jest)
  19. That would hopefully pacify them. IF it did, then it would kinda be like the LA Riots. If not, oh well, a couple less criminals in the world.
  20. If he sleeps and is wearing a tie or other loose article, staple it to the table or whatever he's sleeping on then smack his face to wake him up. With some luck he'll freak out and go crashing to the floor, stuck to whatever's been stapled. How about dem London riots? Lol, British people always seem to riot over nothing. I say shoot them and all protesters. The police's job is to keep the peace, not have little bitch fights with punk asses who think that something they don't like entitles them to break the law.
  21. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway is several scores longer than the map could possibly ever show. Would be impractical, as would the Superdome; it would be larger than the map itself.
  22. Stole? No. Just because some things are implemented first in one thing doesn't make them prima donna material. Or original. Come to think of it, whatever happened to the German NYMod? And why the hell does it say I only have 1 post? I have 2253. Have some profile things also lost during this little transitional phase?
  23. Cities XL is in my Steam Wishlist. If you want, I could buy it. Or how about ArmA III, the game better than BOTH MW3 and BF3.
