DaemonFC | from two sources, I figured that Catalyst 11.11 will support X.org server 1.11 (meaning Fedora 16) | Nov 12 07:57 |
DaemonFC | will support OpenGL 4.2 | Nov 12 07:57 |
DaemonFC | and will be out next week | Nov 12 07:57 |
DaemonFC | they also worked on their cross platform OpenGL driver to squeeze some more performance out of it (because of RAGE on Windows) | Nov 12 07:57 |
DaemonFC | this probably also means they had to fix some bugs this month, because RAGE is literally using every OpenGL 4.x feature there is | Nov 12 07:58 |
DaemonFC | It makes so much sense that RAGE is targeting OpenGL 4.2 on Windows if you think about the clusterfuck situation Microsoft has made regarding DirectX | Nov 12 07:59 |
DaemonFC | XP won't run DirectX 10/11, but it will run OpenGL 4.2 if your video driver has an ICD for it | Nov 12 07:59 |
DaemonFC | Vista won't run DirectX 11 without a massive Platform Update (which is almost a GB to download and takes over an hour to install) | Nov 12 08:00 |
DaemonFC | And as with most Microsoft updates of that magnitude, a significant number of Vista users claim their system failed to restart after that and they lost everything | Nov 12 08:00 |
DaemonFC | and Windows 7, which supports DirectX 11, is on about ~20% of Windows desktop computers | Nov 12 08:01 |
DaemonFC | so unless they want nearly 80% of Windows users definitely unable or probably unable to run RAGE, they target OpenGL, if they want modern graphics API features | Nov 12 08:01 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz: if they want my money, they know who to sue | Nov 12 11:33 |
DaemonFC | I just hope they don't mind a little Chapter 11 on my part if they do | Nov 12 11:34 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 11:34 |
DaemonFC | wipe out the hospital bills and a couple of credit cards | Nov 12 11:34 |
DaemonFC | bonus | Nov 12 11:34 |
DaemonFC | even with the changes Bush rammed through on behalf of hospitals and credit card companies, it's still possible to file bankruptcy | Nov 12 11:35 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[gbraad/@gbraad] /me likely suffers from a winter depression already :-s | Nov 12 11:35 | |
DaemonFC | it's just that if they think you have enough money to pay them off expeditiously, they'll railroad you into a different kind of bankruptcy that makes you pay it back in installments | Nov 12 11:36 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[karsten/@karsten] heh, nice picture. Thanks! | Nov 12 11:37 | |
DaemonFC | the absolute worst place to "owe" money to is the IRS, followed by child support | Nov 12 11:37 |
DaemonFC | nothing gets you out of those, and you can sit in jail for not paying them | Nov 12 11:37 |
DaemonFC | unless you're rich and exploiting loopholes in the tax code designed as a way out of paying taxes, for the rich | Nov 12 11:38 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 11:38 |
DaemonFC | most billionaires have it set up so they're paying only a few percent of their income in tax | Nov 12 11:39 |
DaemonFC | while bitching that someone working at Walmart is a "lucky ducky" for "only" paying 8-9% to the feds | Nov 12 11:39 |
DaemonFC | we have a regressive system disguised as a progressive system | Nov 12 11:40 |
DaemonFC | it looks like the rate of tax goes up, but it really doesn't | Nov 12 11:40 |
DaemonFC | it's just there as a facade to make people who pay taxes think that they're in a "lower bracket" | Nov 12 11:40 |
DaemonFC | while the people who should be paying 35% are not | Nov 12 11:40 |
schestowitz | IIRC, the States has it differently for child support to | Nov 12 11:42 |
schestowitz | *too | Nov 12 11:42 |
schestowitz | For example, they can take it out of the father's paycheck | Nov 12 11:42 |
DaemonFC | yeah, each state has different laws | Nov 12 11:42 |
schestowitz | While hospitals cannot do that, right? | Nov 12 11:42 |
DaemonFC | but they're pretty much in agreement that only the man can be held responsible for the kids | Nov 12 11:42 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 11:42 |
schestowitz | Equal rights for both genders | Nov 12 11:42 |
schestowitz | But the males always have to foot the bills | Nov 12 11:43 |
DaemonFC | in Indiana, if you don't pay child support, they throw you in prison | Nov 12 11:43 |
DaemonFC | and make you lose your job | Nov 12 11:43 |
DaemonFC | and have nothing to pay the child support with | Nov 12 11:43 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 11:43 |
schestowitz | That's the only one area where the achievements of feminists need further amendments -- equality in support issues, the husband not being assumed to have to take the burden of alimony | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | Yesterday I heard an interesting stort | Nov 12 11:44 |
DaemonFC | there was a guy I used to work with, his ex wife took him to the cleaners in the divorce | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | Not just about marriage as an exist barrier | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | But child support too | Nov 12 11:44 |
DaemonFC | and then she bought stuff for herself with hte child support payments | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | This type of stuff can make the institute of marriage just collapse altogether | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | But these days the child support aspect is unaffected by marriage or not marriage | Nov 12 11:44 |
DaemonFC | he complained and the judge told him that as long as the kids were fed, clothed, and had a bed to sleep in, she can spend his money on anything she wants | Nov 12 11:44 |
schestowitz | yeah | Nov 12 11:45 |
schestowitz | Typical story | Nov 12 11:45 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Florida has lifetime alimony | Nov 12 11:45 |
schestowitz | Happens a lot | Nov 12 11:45 |
DaemonFC | so it's common for divorced women to shack up with someone and not marry them | Nov 12 11:45 |
amarsh04 | reboot took longer, found a kernel bug to do with the radeon 9200se in this machine | Nov 12 11:45 |
schestowitz | The entitlement needs to be made more fair | Nov 12 11:45 |
DaemonFC | so the alimony check keeps coming | Nov 12 11:45 |
DaemonFC | the check only stops if they get remarried | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | Oh,I see.. | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | No incentive for that then | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | Until the kid turns 18 anyway | Nov 12 11:46 |
DaemonFC | nope | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | [or kids] | Nov 12 11:46 |
DaemonFC | not affected by kids or no kids | Nov 12 11:46 |
DaemonFC | it's not child support | Nov 12 11:46 |
DaemonFC | it's alimony | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | Oh | Nov 12 11:46 |
DaemonFC | it NEVER ends until she dies or remarries | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | What's that all about then? | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | Alimony for what exactly? | Nov 12 11:46 |
schestowitz | Women can get p[aid as much as men | Nov 12 11:47 |
DaemonFC | for all the years of marriage or something | Nov 12 11:47 |
DaemonFC | I don't know | Nov 12 11:47 |
schestowitz | We achieved this goal | Nov 12 11:47 |
DaemonFC | antiquated law | Nov 12 11:47 |
schestowitz | Yeah | Nov 12 11:47 |
schestowitz | Sounfds like it | Nov 12 11:47 |
schestowitz | US is a religious country | Nov 12 11:47 |
DaemonFC | nobody will do anything about it because it's women benefiting off of unearned money coming from a man that earned it | Nov 12 11:47 |
schestowitz | I bet the marriage vows still bears some stuff about promising to feed, cloth etc. to the rest of the life (not for kids, adults) | Nov 12 11:47 |
DaemonFC | marriage is a huge liability for a man | Nov 12 11:48 |
schestowitz | It doesn't have to be | Nov 12 11:48 |
schestowitz | Depends on how it's done | Nov 12 11:48 |
DaemonFC | a woman can not only get out of it, but make a profit by doing it | Nov 12 11:48 |
schestowitz | And there's prenuptial | Nov 12 11:48 |
DaemonFC | some states don't let you do that | Nov 12 11:48 |
DaemonFC | or limit it | Nov 12 11:48 |
schestowitz | If you want to blow money on the ceremony and not bear the liabilities | Nov 12 11:48 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: It used to be common for people who wanted a divorce to flee to Indiana, live here for 6 months, and file here | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: this leads to risk for the groom | Nov 12 11:49 |
DaemonFC | because some surrounding states used to treat divorce as a jury trial | Nov 12 11:49 |
DaemonFC | to assign fault | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | Which in turns gives him no power in the relationship | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | And he becomes "pussy-shipped" | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | *whipped | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: so, why don't *you* get married? | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | $30k ceremony | Nov 12 11:49 |
DaemonFC | you basically were compelled to get up and lie under oath about the other person | Nov 12 11:49 |
schestowitz | And then dreading a divorce | Nov 12 11:49 |
DaemonFC | so the divorce would be "more" their fault than yours | Nov 12 11:50 |
DaemonFC | so eventually all states did away with that | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | hmmm... | Nov 12 11:50 |
DaemonFC | I think New York was the last | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | scary stuff | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | butl... | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | With prenup maybe there are ways around it | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | I have a friend who is 40 and lives with his fiancée for 10 years | Nov 12 11:50 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Each state has different laws about who is a resident and who is not | Nov 12 11:50 |
schestowitz | They don't get married, they're not religious and there's no benefit to it | Nov 12 11:51 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: resident? | Nov 12 11:51 |
schestowitz | For applying applicable laws? | Nov 12 11:51 |
DaemonFC | it's mainly to prevent people from getting in-state tuition at colleges | Nov 12 11:51 |
DaemonFC | or for tax reasons | Nov 12 11:51 |
DaemonFC | but marriage and divorce too | Nov 12 11:51 |
schestowitz | Microsoft ia based in Navada | Nov 12 11:51 |
schestowitz | For tax anyway :-) | Nov 12 11:51 |
schestowitz | Frausdsters | Nov 12 11:51 |
DaemonFC | Indiana's law is that if you have lived here for 6 months, you are an Indiana resident | Nov 12 11:51 |
DaemonFC | unless you're not a US citizen of course :D | Nov 12 11:52 |
schestowitz | I'm waiting for interview answers from someone who protests about it | Nov 12 11:52 |
DaemonFC | They would need a physical presence there though | Nov 12 11:52 |

schestowitz | just for the tax handling | Nov 12 11:53 |
DaemonFC | Amazon has a warehouse here | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | IOW, loophole for thr rich | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | It's a serious crime | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | But rich people do it | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | So they legalise it | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | They control the law | Nov 12 11:53 |
DaemonFC | and they threatened to close it and fire everyone if the state made them charge sales tax to Indiana residents | Nov 12 11:53 |
schestowitz | And they have their cronies (former employees) in the government | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | It's just legalised theft | Nov 12 11:54 |
DaemonFC | so they get away with INDOR looking the other way | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | And people should rebel over this | Nov 12 11:54 |
DaemonFC | while Indiana residents make purchases from an in-state business | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: what you describe is blackmail | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | For this too the people should be sent to prison | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | But they legalise this blackmail | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | The law doesn't work against rich people | Nov 12 11:54 |
schestowitz | They just legalise their own crimes | Nov 12 11:54 |
DaemonFC | apparently the political fallout from Amazon closing up and firing thousands of warehouse workers is enough of a threat that they get out of taxes | Nov 12 11:55 |
schestowitz | It's easy to buy "justice" | Nov 12 11:55 |

schestowitz | They write those laws | Nov 12 11:55 |
schestowitz | if you're poor you can;'t do that | Nov 12 11:55 |

schestowitz | It's time to call for jusitce against Microsoft | Nov 12 12:55 |
schestowitz | I'm pretty much fed up | Nov 12 12:55 |
schestowitz | The US looks the other way when crime is committed | Nov 12 12:55 |
schestowitz | And ignored legal instruments like RICO Act | Nov 12 12:55 |
schestowitz | Time to call for people'a attention and have them ask their MPs | Nov 12 12:56 |
schestowitz | Maybe it can be stopped, but I very much doubt any MS execs will end up in prison | Nov 12 12:56 |
schestowitz | Even for breaking the RICO Act-related laws | Nov 12 12:56 |
schestowitz | Rich people don't go to prison | Nov 12 12:56 |
schestowitz | Unless it's symbolic to appease the public and restore some confidence (e.g. Madoff) | Nov 12 12:56 |
schestowitz | Prisons are built for poor people whom the high society can no longer keep under control | Nov 12 12:57 |
oiaohm | iophk: In fact they are from the same university. | Nov 12 12:57 |
iophk | Yes. That's why he is where he is now. | Nov 12 12:58 |
iophk | Speaking of universities, routing so much of the population through the prison system has adverse effects on society and culture. | Nov 12 12:58 |
oiaohm | Gates wrote the school's computer program to schedule students in classes. He modified the code so that he was placed in classes with mostly female students. | Nov 12 13:02 |
oiaohm | He started his underhanded computer usage very early did gates. | Nov 12 13:02 |
iophk | Probably myth. | Nov 12 13:02 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: To quote Will Smith from Enemy of the State | Nov 12 13:02 |

DaemonFC | "A Hobbs and a RICO, ohh baby don't stop!" | Nov 12 13:03 |
oiaohm | iophk: No that one is not a myth its on the harvard record. | Nov 12 13:03 |
schestowitz | also broke a machine so that he can get free computer time to 'fix' it | Nov 12 13:03 |
schestowitz | That's a verified fact | Nov 12 13:03 |
oiaohm | iophk: Ie he got caught. | Nov 12 13:03 |
schestowitz | I think he took pride in doing that with Allen (the troll) | Nov 12 13:03 |
iophk | IIRC they also stole a lot of hours of computing time. But that's small potatoes compared to the damage they do daily now. | Nov 12 13:04 |
schestowitz | I wriote about this some years ago in TEchrights | Nov 12 13:05 |

schestowitz | "Good to see that explicitly stated. I was a bit confused by the previous 'lower levels of Android' weasel words. I thought, "But that's Linux!". So Mozilla are putting an HTML5 shell on top of the Linux kernel. Maybe they should talk to HP about GPLing the rest of the WebOS code." | Nov 12 13:10 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: right | Nov 12 13:10 |
schestowitz | His highest qualification is high school diploma | Nov 12 13:10 |
schestowitz | But then again, maybe plutocrats are like that | Nov 12 13:10 |
oiaohm | Other commonality between Ballmer and Gates was that they were both studing a "bachelor's degree in mathematics and economics" | Nov 12 13:10 |
oiaohm | Ballmer completed his Gates did not. | Nov 12 13:11 |
schestowitz | Smart people don't feel like they need to crush those whom they envy | Nov 12 13:11 |
schestowitz | They just do their thing | Nov 12 13:11 |
oiaohm | So head of MS has had bugger all diversity. | Nov 12 13:11 |
schestowitz | Ballmer had high SAT scores in maths | Nov 12 13:11 |
oiaohm | Same leaders trained by the same people. | Nov 12 13:11 |
schestowitz | IIRC RMS and Ballmer both got highest scores | Nov 12 13:11 |
schestowitz | But RMS also aces the other SAP component, not just math | Nov 12 13:12 |
oiaohm | Ie MS has the company equal to inbreeding. | Nov 12 13:12 |
oiaohm | Normally you try to have staff that have trained up in different universities at top. | Nov 12 13:12 |
oiaohm | So there is some difference in ideas. | Nov 12 13:12 |

DaemonFC | Speaking of the Minty Browser Hijack edition of Ubuntu | Nov 12 18:47 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 18:47 |
MinceR | :) | Nov 12 18:48 |
dyfet | Well, I recall Canonical hijacked Ubuntu browsing before them :) | Nov 12 18:48 |
MinceR | this might be based on the debian-based mint, though | Nov 12 18:48 |
DaemonFC | dyfet: On Ubuntu: sudo apt-get purge xul-ext-ubufox | Nov 12 18:48 |
DaemonFC | on Kubuntu: sudo apt-get install firefox --no-install-recommends | Nov 12 18:49 |
DaemonFC | :P | Nov 12 18:49 |
dyfet | Yea...exactly...and there was the time they went to yahoo because they could get more money... | Nov 12 18:49 |
DaemonFC | on Kubuntu, the global menu extension is not needed | Nov 12 18:49 |
DaemonFC | and the Plasma global menu widget will work with it, but you won't like it | Nov 12 18:49 |
DaemonFC | slow glitchy menus in Firefox and THunderbird | Nov 12 18:49 |
MinceR | i won't like any sort of global menu widget | Nov 12 18:50 |
MinceR | :> | Nov 12 18:50 |
DaemonFC | What do you expect when they're having Firefox render the its menu and hiding it | Nov 12 18:50 |
DaemonFC | while at the same time, sending it through dbus | Nov 12 18:50 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 18:50 |
DaemonFC | I'm only surprised it works in Unity | Nov 12 18:51 |
DaemonFC | I'm not sure what they did to get it to work there | Nov 12 18:51 |
dyfet | The whole global menu is both stupid and uneeded. There are BETTER ways to solve the problem it claims to solve without having to break and patch every application toolkit | Nov 12 18:51 |
DaemonFC | I'll have to burn the Mint 12 ISO later | Nov 12 18:52 |
DaemonFC | it's hard to imagine they could have made GNOME Shell worse than it was | Nov 12 18:52 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 18:52 |
dyfet | Yea... | Nov 12 18:52 |
dyfet | And with far less ability to fix it, too... | Nov 12 18:52 |
DaemonFC | no, the Shell is easy to extend | Nov 12 18:52 |
DaemonFC | with Javascript apparently | Nov 12 18:53 |
dyfet | Yes, the shell is, unity is not... | Nov 12 18:53 |
DaemonFC | ahh | Nov 12 18:53 |
DaemonFC | Unity is not meant to be improved upon | Nov 12 18:53 |
DaemonFC | it's meant as an as-is end user product | Nov 12 18:53 |
DaemonFC | same goes for Ubuntu as a whole | Nov 12 18:53 |
dyfet | It is meant to serve marketing purposes, and so the decisions made are wrong for the community as a result | Nov 12 18:53 |
dyfet | I remember for example when Shuttleworth argued about the placement of the launcher must be fixed on the left side because it must always APPEAR UNDER the ubuntu branding button on the then panel in 11.04. Decision making for inflexibility for marketing purposes, not for users.... | Nov 12 18:55 |
dyfet | That statement by him said it clearly | Nov 12 18:56 |
DaemonFC | GNOME Shell probably wasn't going to let them be as in your face as they wanted to be | Nov 12 18:57 |
DaemonFC | which is why they forked GNOME | Nov 12 18:57 |
dyfet | It may well be...that they felt they could not brand it ubuntu enough... | Nov 12 18:58 |
DaemonFC | Steve Of Linux has pretty much left Kubuntu alone | Nov 12 18:58 |
DaemonFC | :) | Nov 12 18:58 |
dyfet | They are probably lucky :) | Nov 12 18:59 |
DaemonFC | I'm surprised they even have Kubntu and Xubuntu and Lubuntu | Nov 12 18:59 |
DaemonFC | well, maybe not surprised at Xubuntu | Nov 12 18:59 |
DaemonFC | they managed to jam their DRM'd Ubuntu Store into that | Nov 12 18:59 |
DaemonFC | I figure the DRM store will find its way into Muon and bloat it eventually | Nov 12 19:00 |
dyfet | Well, they dont have ubuntuone in xubuntu | Nov 12 19:00 |
dyfet | though they do have it...for windows | Nov 12 19:01 |

schestowitz | there has just been a little incident I had to attend, so wasn't quite so responsive over the past 2 hours. It ought to be fine now for the rest of the night | Nov 12 19:15 |
schestowitz | I can't believe this one document I work on gre to the point where it takes up 800MB of RAM just to keep open | Nov 12 19:16 |
schestowitz | Sometimes it just puts what's not visible off RAM | Nov 12 19:17 |
schestowitz | But I can't quite grasp why and when | Nov 12 19:17 |
schestowitz | So it eats up my swap | Nov 12 19:17 |
MinceR | sounds like an application bug | Nov 12 19:17 |
DaemonFC | You're using BlOOoated Office again? :) | Nov 12 19:18 |

DaemonFC | aspirin | Nov 12 19:22 |
schestowitz | I've been spending houts speaking to someone this week after pressure at work had negative impact on the head | Nov 12 19:22 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: doesn't always work | Nov 12 19:23 |
schestowitz | depends on the cause] | Nov 12 19:23 |
DaemonFC | I find headaches happen when I go without sleep | Nov 12 19:23 |
Faither | I've been having problems with migrane since i was 6 | Nov 12 19:23 |
schestowitz | yeah, same here | Nov 12 19:23 |
schestowitz | esp. if you use coffee to keep awake artificially | Nov 12 19:23 |
DaemonFC | well, aspirin + caffeine will usually get rid of it | Nov 12 19:23 |
DaemonFC | it's what I use for migraines | Nov 12 19:23 |
Faither | DaemonFC: I can eat them until i burn a hole into my stomache or bleed out of every orfice without any effect | Nov 12 19:25 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: I try not to get strung out or go without sleep | Nov 12 19:25 |
DaemonFC | those bring them on | Nov 12 19:25 |
DaemonFC | and once they're there, they're there to stay for hours | Nov 12 19:25 |
Faither | normally when I could get a night of sleep they'd be gone | Nov 12 19:26 |
DaemonFC | Faither: Try the enteric coated aspirin | Nov 12 19:26 |
DaemonFC | it dissolves in your intestinal tract instead of your stomach | Nov 12 19:26 |
DaemonFC | if you use regular aspirin enough, you'll get an ulcer | Nov 12 19:27 |
Faither | I'll go ask my pharmacist, thanks for the tip | Nov 12 19:27 |
MinceR | or you could try paracetamol :> | Nov 12 19:27 |
Faither | -.- | Nov 12 19:28 |
DaemonFC | acetaminophen | Nov 12 19:28 |
DaemonFC | :P | Nov 12 19:28 |
DaemonFC | you communist | Nov 12 19:28 |
MinceR | that's what they call it in the USA, yes | Nov 12 19:28 |
Faither | I've used ibuprofene | Nov 12 19:28 |
MinceR | you nazi | Nov 12 19:28 |
MinceR | iirc it's not recommended to keep using ibuprofen for long | Nov 12 19:28 |
MinceR | but i'm not a pharmacist :> | Nov 12 19:28 |
Faither | I don't even have any at my home right now | Nov 12 19:29 |
DaemonFC | prescription strength is 800 mg every 6-8 hours for Ibuprofen | Nov 12 19:29 |
DaemonFC | over the counter strength is half that | Nov 12 19:29 |
DaemonFC | you can take 800 mg of the otc stuff and it's the exact same as a prescription dose | Nov 12 19:29 |
DaemonFC | but you shouldn't make it a habit | Nov 12 19:30 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[glynmoody/@glynmoody] hmmm... | Nov 12 19:31 | |
DaemonFC | acetaminophen is probably the nastiest OTC pain killer there is | Nov 12 19:31 |
Faither | I'd rather eradicate the source of my headache but so far no one could figure it out | Nov 12 19:31 |
MinceR | it's your head :> | Nov 12 19:31 |
Faither | MinceR: now that you mention it | Nov 12 19:31 |
Faither | xD | Nov 12 19:31 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz can recommend a good chiropractor for that | Nov 12 19:32 |

Faither | cozy xD | Nov 12 19:35 |
DaemonFC | but, it would probably save electricity | Nov 12 19:35 |
DaemonFC | turn the heat off at night and stay under the blanket | Nov 12 19:35 |
Faither | Oh i thought you ere talking about the exess heat of the fire xD | Nov 12 19:36 |
MinceR | yeah, the house fire keeps you warm for the rest of your life, and doesn't use electricity | Nov 12 19:37 |
