QL Friends System Seems To Be Buggy 
I had two invitations in my inbox (there was no notification on the home page) and accepted them, but they don't show up on the list. 
Heh -:D 
I accepted megmn as a freind today with IRC communication to boot, and it would appear that you have to send a freind request, then they accept it and send you another one then you have to accept that or something.

Either that or its just a bit buggy.

And the stats are disabled :(

Still a fun game though. 
Vacuum Cleaner Or Not ? 
As I said, components are ESD protected... (Oh, just for information ESD = Electro-Static Discharge)
Also, the CPU must be OFF when you clean it. Obviously you must use the lowest possible aspiration power.
The most important: DO NOT touch the component !

I do that once per quarter, and I never had any issue...
Depending of the "method" you are using, you can destroy, or not, your computer... believe me ;) 
That's True 
My dropping it from the third floor method got things nice and clean (and had the added bonus of venting frustration) but didn't leave the machine 100% functional. 
Gazoo 
the alter ego of fred flintstone, he arives at hard times as a helmed ufo to give him advice.

thanks for the responds, thing is my old comp had four screws around the cpu that would release the fan so I could clean it easily.

my new comp has four bars around the cpu with outturning arrows.
As I turned them to release the fan, I possibly(?!) may have lifted the cpu chip.
This seemed so obviously I could tear my hair out.
(and that are quiet a lot)
The fan seemed to be clipped on the cooling device AND the cpu.

Of course I had my comp out of energy for a day with cables off.

Ah, OK.

Anyone playing it? Add me to your friends list: Ankh_DK 
Dark Sounds 
I somehow ended up reading about doom/drone metal on wikipedia and listening to a few examples on youtube (damn, the internet is awesome) and it reminded me of the ambient music that was made for the PSX version of Doom. I used to map to this sometimes when I wanted to be completely absorbed in what I was doing as well as a dark atmosphere.

You can (probably illegally...) get it here: http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/1767 
Thanks Than

The link�s bust?

Reviews Site 
well, it's been about 6 weeks since I sent UWF the reviews, and he seems pretty dead to the world. Maybe it would just be better to start another site. Again, if someone does the design/html stuff, I'll do the content - starting with the crapload of reviews that are already done. 
I Thought About It And I'D Love To .....uhm...... Swallow You 
How come you don't use your very own sexy website btw? If you want, I'd teach you how! :)

If I had the time and energy I'd totally make you a site, but if there is something I don't want to do at the moment then it's my ugly kind of webdesign. So all I could offer (hell, I'd love to feature your reviews at my little sweetheart site ;) ) is creating a category for such reviews at Quaddicted.

Quick hack how it could look like (not clickable on purpose):
http://www.quadd icted.com/tronyn-reviews-digs 04zip-the-parallel-worlds/

I'd add a link to the reviews in the navigation and figure out how to do an index. The text is somewhat hard to read, I really got to improve that on the site anyways... 
Trinca And Penis Talk. 
Welcome to Func_Terrafusion etc etc. 
Quick Question. 
A friend has got a DVD with some AVI film clips ripped from another DVD. They work on the other friend who gave him them 's computer, but not on my friends. Specifically, the sound does not work in VLC player, and conversely the sound works but the video doesn't show in Windows Media Player.

Any simple advice (have suggested Quicktime, other than that I'm stumped).

Ta,
Sham x x x 
 
Damn Shambler, you are pulling penis from the past. Check the file with GSpot (no joke) http://www.headbands.com/gspot/

Alternatively, TEH video playback gem on Windows is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli2/
http://haali.cs.msu.ru/mkv/
I might have forgotten something and I don't remember if setup was a no-brainer, I think it was. 
Heh 
Yeah you know what I didn't really think of it, but I could just post the reviews on my site. I guess there's no real reason not to - a dedicated review site isn't necessary to just have reviews, and as for the polls/articles/extra stuff that UWF's site had, you are pretty much already doing all of that at Quaddicted anyway.

Alright, sorry to make everyone wait even longer but this week my time is shot to hell. I'll do it this weekend. 
 
Sounds awesome! Can't wait to see what you come up with! 
Spirit. 
K, will check those. Anything simpler I can get my friend to do (he's rarely on the web AFAIK). 
Windows Video Codecs 
There is a codec pack called CCCP, should be standard windows fare to install, and then it comes with a simple lightweight media player.

But as Spirit implied... AVI is just a container format which could have any number of different audio/video formats in it. 
So Heading To Japan Later In The Year 
any recommendations for places/things not to miss? 
 
fear the yellow people!!! 
Nitin: 
Than, of course! 
Nitin 
When are you heading out there? And where? I'm gonna be there a few weeks during April myself.
