  1. May the Fourth be with all my old buddies here at Deadly Stream! Major props for keeping this community going over the past two decades!

  2. milestails has logged back in for the first time in over two years? 😏

  3. Samsung Galaxy S9+ - Yay or Nay?

      Which phone OS are you more familiar with?

      Really, if you liked the previous Galaxy S# models, this one just seems the same but with a faster processor and little else. I always thought Samsung phones looked super cool, but I prefer IOS so what do I know.

      Android moreso.

      Mind you, I am upgrading from a S4 😂

  4. I approve of Solo: A Star Wars Story.

  5. Used the Kreia quote about plans being fragile things as a Tinder opener. I was unmatched as a result.

      You need to keep your creepy old lady fetishes under wraps until at least the third date.

      Unless of course you're using "CreepyOldLady" app. In that case, don't mention what you want to do in the arboretum.

  6. Hong Kong is an awesome place.

      Enjoy all of the amazing food!!!!

  7. I do a mean Gollum impression.

      I'd ask if you can do a nice one too but that would be Sméagol, wouldn't it?

  8. TLJ release date is January 5, 2018 in China, but December 14 in Hong Kong....possible excursion to HK?

    1. Rinku

      Rinku

      I did this for TFA! Went to Guangzhou (super cheap compared to HK) and then hopped on the train to HK. Back then the train was 2hrs, but I've heard there is a faster train now. We saw the movie at Element Mall, it is definitely a fun time! There's lots of food and they had a cool Star Wars art exhibit. Protips: Buy your return tickets when you arrive at Kowloon Station to avoid scalpers later (if you make it a day trip). Also, get the curry popcorn, it was great.

  9. In Beijing until July!

    1. Rinku

      Nice!!! Have a great time over in China!

      Beijing's pretty cool, have a good time!

  10. Still amazes me how much attention to detail and innovativeness is on full display by the modders here.

      Definitely Dark Hopes work is included in all this, one of the best reskinner around these parts.

      Attention to detail is what killed a lot of mods on KotOR's Filefront, I feel. If you don't pay attention to the details, you don't have a quality piece of work that feels real, in my opinion. But I can be pretty picky about that stuff. :D

  11. It has been some time. What have I missed round these parts?

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      And deprive you from enjoying reading the WIP threads?

  12. Chargers moving to LA? What a joke.

    1. Mr Ardvark

      Mr Ardvark

      They have no base there, and no San Diego fan is going to make the drive after getting stabbed in the back.

    2. LDR

      If you think that's a joke just wait until you see their new logo.

  13. Took a picture with Darth Vader at Disneyland yesterday. Tried to tell him to use his influence to make KotOR III a possibility. All he talked about was finding a hidden Rebel base.

  14. It's official. I am never going on Star Tours again. Same boring planets again and again.

      I went on that ages ago. You'd think Disney could update considering they now own Star Wars.

  15. Cyber Monday! Buy! Buy! Buy!

  16. Nothing like assembling IKEA furniture.

      What types though? Curious about the bed frame. Is it Hemnes?

      That's the bed I got, I think.

  17. Just finished the Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast demo and purchased both JKO and JKA for sale on gog. Time to learn the ways of Kyle Katarn.

      HK-47

      JK DF2 more so than DF1 (df1 is really really hard and doesn't always work, so just read about the story or watch a play through). And Mystery of the Sith. JKO takes place after JK DF2 and MotS. JKA takes place after JKO. (DF1 -> DF2 -> MotS -> Outcast -> Academy) You get a better feel for Kyle when you play JK DF2. It makes a lot of stuff in JKO make more sense.

    3. milestails

      Okay I just bought DF, DF2, and MotS for less than $3 total.

    4. Tyvokka

      Tyvokka

      so i never have finished DF or DF2... just JKO and JKA

  18. How do you know what career to pursue when you have zero idea about what you want to do?

      I guess that's the real question. How do you figure out what you want to do?

    3. Revanator

      Revanator

      You have to experiment. Take the time to immerse yourself in a variety of different things until you find something that you both love and makes a good career.

    4. Fair Strides

      Fair Strides

      Try some volunteer work, work up some basic everyday skills (like office skills, or Microsoft Office), and then look at what variety of internships you can do.

       

      Also, it NEVER hurts to ask someone if you can job shadow them or get a quick 20-minute interview about their job or field.

  19. Was at Disneyland today hoping to visit some of the newly added planets in Star Tours.....I got Hoth and Naboo.....and I was not the Rebel Spy. I did, however, see a guy playing KotOR on his phone.

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Was once the Rebel spy. The other holocrons never let that one go.

      Are they still co-locating their own server? If so, that's madness in this day and age. I thought they dropped that piece of crap for a VPS a couple of years ago.

      Good to know Canderis.

      Sounds like they're still using their own.

  21. Opened up my Origin client to find Mass Effect in my library.....I never purchased it from Origin.....

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      It will automatically detect any installs from other sources and add it to your Origin library.

  22. Been MIA for the past few weeks. Summer camp will do that to you!

  23. Wish I had known that you could refund games on Steam. Don't want Dragon Age: Origins, Rome Total War, Far Cry 2, or FEAR 2.

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      You can only refund them within 2 weeks of purchase and if you have less than 2hrs of play time. It's not a way to get rid of old stuff. You want to use trades for that.

    2. bendarby24

      bendarby24

      why don't you want them, dragon age is a banging game

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      agree with bendarby there^^

       

      but on a side note, you can also delete games from your accounts somehow but you obviously don't get the money back
