I'm kinda surprised you're up this late,although it's normal for me to be up playing till 1-2 am.
so your machine is up to the challenge?
from memory it was holding you back playing NEWSA,
I can hardly wait for the 2.5 release, make sure you put your re spawn times to
"Very Frequent" in the additional options menu, I found it was the only way to keep the sods re spawning
an example.
at the Bloodsucker Ville in AW, took two out then went down to take the Military/Soldiers out at the little camp, came back through BSV and the Controllers were back!

It's very flattering to see that the Top Guns in gaming talking about NEWSA+SIMBION-tweaked here in the Bar as well. :)

Also, after reading a couple of posts above, syuddenly I remembered something that I read once.

Anyone wants to read something deep? Here it is. Is it an answer? Maybe it's not an answer at all, but it sure is beautifully written:

It is said that those who dream of going hunting will wake up in the morning to find themselves weeping and those dream of weeping will wake in the morning to fond themselves going hunting.

When I am in the middle of a dream, I do not know I am dreaming nor can I interpret the dream until it is over. Only when I awake, do I know it was a dream.
One day there will be the Great Awakening. Not until then will we know it was all one great dream.

One night I dreamed I was a butterfly. I knew I had never known any other existence but that of a butterfly. I was happy to flit from flower to flower. Suddenly I awoke. I was astonished to find I was Zhuang Zi.
But now I am not sure whether I am a man who had dream he was a butterfly or whether I am a butterfly who is now dreaming he is a man.

Zhuang Zi. (thought to have lived 330-275 B.C.) From The Book of Zhuang Zi.

The hell I am ](*,) , I'm just really bored and find that kinda stuff interesting, the whole existance thing, are we alone and also ancient stuff, lost civilizations and so on.
And when I'm even more bored I like to ramble about those things.
And besides there is a point in that thing, how can you really know if this is the reality? Haven't you ever had any doubts?
So what do you think, are we alone on this rock.


I have long ago abandoned the thought of analyzing my dreams, at times they make no sense, at times I'm up high in the air looking down on on this frail world, at times I'm wondering in a seemingly endless plain and at times I'm ......... I don't know where, I'm not me. At times I find my owns dreams freaking me out, and those are the ones I have before waking up and remember, I don't even dare to think about the ones I might have in deep sleep.

I once dreamt that I was walking across a bridge holding hands with a dolphin and as we walked the dolphin pointed out a horse swimming underwater.

It means you should lay off the mushrooms buddy!!

As for NEWSA, my old machine would have played it, but probbaly on lowest settings, and I cannot cope with that!! I have since upgraded my machine and should get silky framerates in NEWSA now, I get 150+ fps in vanilla.

I'm not really holding out much chance of beating your controller tally, it will be my first tiime playing NEWSA, and I just know I'll be going "Ooh, how does that work" and jumping out into the game files to look. Although I promise Nightwatch I won't change anything!!

That is a good guestion isn't it but more importantly (leaving out the universal scale), are we alone amongst ourselves, there is so much we do not know about our world. Who is to say that there aren't some other beings walking among us.

No, there are supernatural things in on earth, and there most likely are "Aliens" on earth somewhere, and also there is definatly some kinda of intelligent Species somewhere in the universe, its impossible for us to be the only beings so to speak.

Seriously, how can you be sure. Just because you can not see it, feel it or touch it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. I'm not saying that they absolutely do exist but how can we deifinitly know

I said they do exist, i have had some F-ed up moments that can not be explained at all, i know for a fact this house i live in is haunted, i dont care about ghosts or wateva, they never harmed me, so i have no reason to hate them etc.

There are Aliens somewhere, as for ghosts im 50/50 right now due to things i have experianced etc.

Maybe what we call ghosts are the things DT speaks of. People have been chasing ghosts for centuries. Must be something more to it.

There are many things we can not explain in this never ending dream called life. We have yet to understand among other things what really happens to us after death (apart from that our bodies will after awhile return to the dust).
For humans to recive sudden enlightenment would be like staring into the glistening sun, the knoledge is too great for us to comprehend, we would only succeed in destroying ourselves. We have yet to evolve to another plain, maybe then are we able to recive greater knoledge of verything around us and use it properly.
Some say that forsight is a gift, they are wrong, it is a curse. Think about it, you know something horrible is going to happen, you want change things so that it won't happen but what if it is supposed to happen, what if that something is supposed to happen to somebody you love and you can not do anything but wait for the day to come. There is no telling what might happen if you change things, ''Ignorance is bliss'' .
