They're coming to get me!

Welp. Looks like System is going to be making new music again. Apparently they don't want a Toxicity 2 and want to attract a new generation of fans. Hopefully it doesn't suck but who knows?

I know nobody here really listens to SOAD, but I know some of you used to, so thoughts on this news?

Since I'm turning 24, I thought maybe we'd have a Bioshock 2 multiplayer gameday. Believe it or not, people still play it on PC.

This will be the Steam version because PC Master Race. I don't know anyone who plays the Xbox 360 version anymore.

If you don't have Bioshock 2 via steam you can get it from the steam store for $19.99 or wait until it goes on sale. You will be getting both original and remastered versions. Install the original version for the multiplayer because the remastered doesn't have it.

Anyway, this isn't set in stone and I wish I had someone I could play the multiplayer with in this game, but maybe if some of you are interested we can play this November? I dunno, what do you guys think?

How do you guys handle death in the family? Especially if its someone close that you know. I've told a couple of you via PM or outside the site the whole story on what happened with me these past few weeks and I won't get into detail here, but I've recently lost a family member that everyone was close with in my family.

Their death was extremely sudden and unexpected, something that you would think wouldn't happen in a million years to that person, but it did. Everyone was in shock, and even in denial.

We've grieved in our own way, I for one couldn't really stay at home and I had to go outside to one of the libraries here to find some peace as well as explore the park that the library is located on.

As time went by, things begin to heal, but things aren't really any better, if that makes any sense. What about you guys?

With Diplomatic Immunity, you're pretty much exempt from the law, in other words, you're above the law now.

Say this just happened to you and you have Diplomatic Immunity for the rest of your life. In this example, you can get away with murder, and you won't be charged or face any serious consequences. You can kill anyone you want and there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it, you can't even be sued.

With that said, who or what type of people would you kill and why? How would you kill them?

Personally for me, if I had Diplomatic Immunity, I would kill every single sick scumbag that has raped and murdered innocent people who did not deserve it at all. I would also kill convicted pedophiles as a result. I'd also kill every mobster, gangster, let alone crime lord. I'd basically go after every bad person that has done or is going to do a heinous act.

As for how I would kill them? Pull out gun, boom, headshot. End of fucking story.

Slight topic change: If you won't kill anybody, what would you rather do instead and why?

I recall awhile back Ian gave a lot of shit about Windows 10, saying that its malware. While I wouldn't call it malware because malware itself is suppose to fuck up your entire OS as well as it crashing and burning, but I do agree that that the Windows 10 Anniversary Update has brought one change in particular that I dislike, that being you can't turn off Cortana anymore like you used to. If you're on Windows 10 Home, you have to turn her off via regedit, If your on Pro you can turn her off via Regt edit or via the Local Group policy editor.

Here's a tut if you wanna know how to do that: http://www.howtogeek.com/265027/how-to-disable-cortana-in-windows-10/

Now in my case, I've clean installed Windows 10, I even have gone back to Windows 7 to verify this itself and yes that Get 10 upgrade crap should now be gone, the 1 year free upgrade thing is over for good.

At least the product keys that I snagged, I own and I'm able to do a clean install of Windows 10 since I have a DVD burned to it. Now, I had Windows 10 Enterprise, but it fucked my chances of getting the Anniversary Update, so I had to downgrade back and that costed me a fucking clean install -_-

Reason why is because you'd have to get the Anniversary update for Enterprise via server or contact MS for volume licensing and I didn't have that option because I'm not IT. So I'm back on a clean copy of Windows 10 Pro right now.

I don't know why, that was stupid.

So... I have to agree with Ian, Windows 10 is kinda fucked up, and with the Anniversary update Microsoft is pretty much playing big brother, no doubt about that. But, I still wouldn't call Windows 10 itself malware.

I actually like a lot of the exclusive content Windows 10 has, if it wasn't for that, I would be back on 7 right now.

Anyway, which Operating System do you guys enjoy the most when it comes to modern Windows?

7? 8? 8.1? or 10?

You could just say Mac Master Race or Linux FTW or whatever if you want or XP. Doesn't matter.

Coming out September 13th. Steam users who have purchased Bioshock 1 or even Bioshock 2 with the second game's DLC, will get a free upgrade to the remastered versions of the games. (they're slight remasters to improve overall graphic quality but eh) Infinite on PC is the same so that's not getting a remaster, but as you can imagine its getting a direct port to the PS4 and Xbox One.

So if you've never played the series or never owned a hard copy of it, and you've thought about getting it for awhile, here's an option you can have.

If you're a Prime member you can save $10 when you pre-order instead of paying $60 for a digital copy or getting it anywhere else.

Discuss if interested.

Eventually... Same with me.

Officially by Microsoft. My dad is Microsoft and don't you forget it!

Anyway: https://xboxdesignlab.xbox.com/

All for the insanely high price of $89.99+ tax and shipping I'm sure.

Oh, and to have a custom engraving for example, your gamertag can be one, its an extra 10 bucks.

I'm still trying to determine what would be a good color scheme for me new controller that I'm going to order. If you guys got any 'design' ideas, post them below. Sadly there is a limited range of colors.

Also, this is still much cheaper than ordering from those super custom shops that sell it for like $200-$400

Because starting on the 20th, I'm going to be going back to school for CNC training, and then after that's all done, I'm going to be actively looking for work as a CNC operator. Of course I'm not going be able to do this alone since I'll have help, but I'm just posting this in case anyone does end up wondering where I went because after this entire week is over, I'm probably not going to have any free time to post on here. We shall see what happens.

How much is Pepsi paying you to have your forum name be Pepsi on here? What is this new form of advertising? Each time I see it I have a craving to drink Pepsi.

*sips Pepsi*

The fact that we're all eventually going to die, and not even naturally or from a natural cause, the fact that any one of us could end up murdered, or we kill ourselves if we're even pushed that far. Could even be from a car accident even, and if you're a pregnant woman, you could die from childbirth.

There are so many fucked up ways to just go from this earth, the only thing that does make it somewhat daunting is not knowing when you're going to die, well unless you have an aggressive tumor that's been gradually killing you, then you would know, but aside from that, you don't really know when you will and you can't even predict it.

Its also a fact that someone or many people in the world die everyday while new babies are also born each day, and we just go on with our lives not knowing, the only time we know is if its someone we knew personally, probably online if you know a lot about them, and if its a famous celebrity or one who was rising in fame.

So yeah... life is incredibly short. Make the best of it as much as you can, because you never know when you're going to be gone.
