    How long would things last in a PA world?

    After Fallout 3 there were a lot of discussion about how unrealistically the 200 years setting was implemented, like wooden houses still standing without any maintenance, canned food remaining uneaten and edible, cars still having paint, clothes lying around in dressers in abandoned houses still...

    Dual Monitor glitches

    I bought a new display to finally realize my decade-old dream of having two monitors. On startup, there are some graphical errors on my old samsung syncmaster, particularly when scrolling in a window, but in general it seems linked to input. Maybe not, haven't tested it that much. This...

    Formula 1 2013

    After a pretty inconclusive winter testing it looked like the top 5 teams were closer than usual, with all of them setting fastest times in Barcelona during february and march, with some rainy days making it hard to make predictions. Driver changes from 2012 include Hamilton going from...

    South Korea cures Starcraft addiction. Or do they?

    No. Or do they? No. http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2010-08/19/starcraft-addiction This is unbelievably stupid. The fact that they even got funding for this crap makes me angry.

    Audio Card Madness

    I got a new laptop at work yesterday. It's a slightly modified Dell Latitude E6400. So I plug my small speakers in and fire up Spotify, and this really weird property of the sound starts to annoy me tremendously. It's like the volume is compensated somehow, it really destroys the sound image...

    SSD - to wait or not to wait

    So my friend got an Intel 80GB SSD and speaks highly of it. Win7 starts in 15 seconds etc etc. Apparently they're releasing a new series pretty soon, so I wonder if it's worth the wait. My system on an old Caviar 500GB HDD is behaving oddly right now, so this is an annoyance that influences...

    A tale of two vault dwellers

    A few months ago, me and a friend talked about picking up pen and paper role playing games again. We have both played before but not together. After a while I decided to game master a Fallout pen and paper campaign. Since I knew another guy who had never played the crpg, and I had never been...

    Pictures of nuclear proof bomb shelter

    So, a friend of mine sent me a link to a blog with pictures from an old bomb shelter in Stockholm. There are some strange pictures in the beginning, because the blog belongs to a band who took pictures for album art down there. Since it's in swedish I'll translate some of the more interesting...

    The pirate bay sold

    So the founders of TPB has sold the site to Global Gaming Factory for £5 million, who supposedly want to make it legal and generate income with it. How do you think TPB will change under the new "leadership"? Do you think the users will stay, and do you think the new legal incarnation will...

    Post apocalyptic short film

    I don't know how old this is so some may have seen it, but I assume it's fairly uknown. It's not fallout, but I gather there are a few PA-fans here that might enjoy it nevertheless. This short film is based on a swedish pen and paper RPG called Mutant, published I think in the 80's but...

    Fallout Online: Impossible to keep the wasteland feeling?

    Will it be possible for an online fallout to maintain the feeling of living in a scarcely populated wasteland? Or will it become a monster where you constantly run into WoW-kids screaming elite abbreviations, selling phat lewt and looking for an xp farming group? I fear that especially now...

    My first unarmed build

    Do I need to write "spoilers" here? =) So back in the day I played a small guns, speech, science charachter with high INT, AGI and pretty high PER ad LUCK. I liked that because I could get the sniper perk, which is very rewarding for me :p. I completed the game with this type of charachter...
