Anyone have any curry recipes that they would like to share?

I made chili yesterday. This batch tasted much better than my last but my stomach wasn't too happy a few hours later.

In the old chat thread, there were suggestions for projects for developers fresh out of school. Can anyone repost those?

Sooooo, the dealer I bought a car off of back in July still hasn't given the Secretary of State a valid title for the car. They'd taken care of registration back when I bought it, (charging me $221 for the pleasure) and I assumed this whole time that the bank I'd financed with had possession of the title.

Nope, I get a letter on the 20th from the S.o.S. saying that the most recent valid title for the car I've been driving and making payments on the past 5 months was issued one state over, back in 2013.

I've contacted the dealership about it almost every day since Tuesday last week, and each time it's another excuse for why the person responsible for titles is unavailable to help me out right now. I've been keeping a log of it. After the 10th call, I'm told today the only person who can help me out (3rd down the referral chain) has been out sick for 2 weeks and "Was supposed to be back this Monday but call back Friday and we'll see where she is."

I feel like they're jacking me around. How long should I wait to lawyer up? By all rights I should be able to drop the car off and get my full purchase price back, and I've got half a mind to do it.

They're not going to do anything for you. Call a lawyer tomorrow and at least find out your options. If you can, I'd park the car until you talk to a lawyer.

Sort of. There's coop missions you can play. Each player chooses a commander with special abilities and play through a mission. It looks like fun and it doesn't look like it's just for LOTV. It looked like there were some missions that I could play with just HOTS.

I know that the Battlefront Beta didn't run on my PC, luckily I'm hopefully graduating soon, so I'll be building a new rig sooner rather than later. I'm shocked that my lovely ATI/AMD rig with 8GB RAM and a 1GB video card has lasted since 2010, honestly

I'm still using an old hex core I bought in 2011. I have upgraded my video card since then though. I did that because my 560 TI died and they sent me a 650 TI. It didn't like dual monitors so I got a 7950 from a friend.

Anything to get away. The most common advice about getting into a fight is doing anything beforehand not to get into a fight. After that, it's about getting away and getting out of harms way.

:confused: They are an award winning studio with a very high profile portfolio and I've loved every game they put out. Between them, Blizzard, and Valve, they are one of the few companies I'm willing to pay full price for a game from.

And bug wise: The amount of coding in these games is IMMENSE, its really not possible to work all the kinks out in a reasonable time without missing your launch date or having the project closed for overrunning its budget.

While I agree on both points, I'm just tired of relying on the modding community to fix buggy games.

I'd just like to say that Great Lakes is generally good stuff. The only beer they make that people seem to be split on is Burning River. Dortmunder is their "flagship" beer and should be the easiest to find.

drat. I guess I should be prepared to spend about three bones on a card? That seems about the sweet spot for all the recommended cards. That 960 was attractive because of the price but if the performance is really that much lower I might just have to suck it up.

Newegg usually starts their Black Friday sales the week of Black Friday, not on Black Friday. If you can, I would wait a week to see what they have. I know this sucks because you probably want to play Fallout as soon as possible.

I have no idea how old it is now, but I have an 8gb GTX 770 which runs everything I currently use without any problem. Is it still solid enough for Fallout 4 when I inevitably break down and buy it?

I also need the key so I can actually download the Windows 7 image since I long ago lost my disc. I've got a lead on someone who might have a spare key, we'll see how it goes :v:

Last summer I re-bought the whole package from steam, since they're all ported to modern OS systems and they were on sale for like 5 bucks. It was easier than reloading from disc and finding the freeware emulators myself. They even had 3 expansion packs included that I've never played. The third one is hard as hell. I literally started it on easy and there's so little weapons/health that it took me like 20 tries to finish the first level. And this is after playing through doom 1 and doom 2 and 2 other xpacs so I was fully warmed up. It was nuts. Dual revenants in the first level, where you only have a shotgun, what the gently caress.

I got through it eventually but it became one of those sessions where you learn to quicksave after every single enemy is defeated or every door is opened. And some you forgot to stock up at the right time, so you end up hosed.

I think I own them all on Steam too. If not, there's always a chance I'll pick them up for the next Steam sale. If I remember correctly, Steam gives you the WADs so you can use one of the many DOOM engines. What amazes me is that there's still an active modding community for these games. Check this out:
