The new Nokia Lumia 1020 ad is top notch.

Just in case any of you aren't yet aware, if you're gaming, do NOT get Windows 8.1 - it will totally ruin everything with a fair few games. Minor mouse-lag issues, especially on FPS games. Not really a big deal for me. My mouse is fixed at a very low DPI, and seeing that people have been making suc...

What is the main diference between Windows 8 and Windows 8.1? And where can i uprage my Win 8 to 8.1? Better desktop and Start Menu features, boot-to-desktop, DirectX 11.2, support for 3D printers (!), oh, and the ability to set your desktop background as your Start Menu background. Though strangel...

Mine is mostly shortcuts to desktop apps, though. Don't really care about all the other Metro apps.

For those who use Windows 8, you can also share your Start Screen setup here.

An educational gif.

Well, kind of.

Suddenly I'm reminded of the Nokia N82 ad.

Actually, I've found a better wallpaper now.

EDIT: updated. Wallpaper made by this guy.

I got a new laptop.

I should stop playing bot matches.

My racing number is #38 because it's the last two digits of my college student registration number... Well I won't need the last 2 digits of my secondary school's exam number anymore, if I use my college ID number just like you do (and yes, I'll be starting college as well), I might have to change ...

You upgraded to Windows 8? That's what we call downgrade :D. I don't understand the excessive hatred over Win8. Yes, I know that the Metro UI makes it look like a closed platform, but hell, Windows is known for it's customizability. You CAN ALWAYS find a loophole to it. Just remove all the Metro ap...

Only one for me:

I'd suggest you turn that into the official GeneRally Steam group. That way we can easily organize more games within GR players.

I don't know why I kept playing Dota 2 even though I suck terribly after at it after all these years.

Also watched The International last week. That last match of the grand finals were amazing.

Seeing my compatriot resir014 who competed in more races even though he's slower than I do (in GRC), I'm still questioning myself if I am "it" or not... And how, I didn't know I had Top 10s, but once again, I didn't aware... No, Rendy, you are WAY better than me! I always think I'm way sl...

Not really the same. There are a few new blocks added to the game.

On a brighter note, TM2: Valley is now out!

If you've played TrackMania long enough, then you know you've messed up this run.

I've recently started playing Metro 2033 . It's the best underrated game I've ever played so far. Sure, it's not as polished as any other AAA titles out there (with the AIs being buggy, pretty resource-draining and stuff), but the storyline really makes up for it. In fact, in a span of 2 weeks, I'v...

I may have done the worst login attempt in the history of my career. It's almost 1am when I did this run, and you know the rest.

So I ditched the race altogether. The new login still doesn't work for me either.

I just started on the first Dota, but could you tell me how Dota 2 looks like? Dota 2 is somewhat a more easier version of the original, here are some of the new stuffs: - All shops are now merged into one (a lot easier compared to the original. Item recipes are also easy to find) - Steam integrati...
