@Tom, Ive heard of laptops with instant dvd playback. it wouldnt suit me because a laptop screen is far too small for me to really get much from the dvd, but I can see the advantage, although Ill stick with the power dvd program and my 40 inch plasma monstrosity

Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Well, as for myself. Currently I am upgrading an older Averetec 6240, restoring it to working order, because although it is old it is a good multimedia laptop.One of the particular features I love about the Averetec 6240 is that it was designed to be a portable
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Well I thought Id post to this thread and hopefully get things out of the slough of dispond we have wandered into. The last few days Ive been taken up with several things, particularly the new entombed, considering gameplay, testing versions and communicating
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@TwardYes they have already done this. A young woman has come to my school since the 10th of April and we have talked about how are we going to deal with final exams. What I really think most of the public schools should do here, is hiring one or two or more
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@tom, Im sorry to here that myself and it does sound actually scary. I do definitely think the world is devided into two, the people who get all the good stuff and the people who take all the crap, its another reason I tend to have a low opinion of most

Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
You get the best experience in the end of each school level and the most toughest thing about it is that it ends rapidly.I don’t really like some ways people used to spend their spare time. As you said, Dark, it isn’t really amazing and satisfying going
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Afrim, university can be a very good experience so if I were you not to write it off as potentially being dull, boring, or unexciting. Believe it or not there are many things about university that are better than high school, or at least I felt so.For one thing
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Tom that is rather different. My decent secondary school where I did my A levels had sports teams, but never being into sport I didnt particularly bother with those, it also had a choire I joined (although when i was 16-18 my voice didnt know what it was doing
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Oh tward you seem to be lucky where you are.Here we do not have so many clubs during university and you do not have many choices to pick.The most boring thing is that some professors may not come at the right time, or they may postpone the time when they come
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Afrim, I agree with you about high school. I think high school was the best years of my school years because there were a lot more things to get involved in such as clubs, dances, football games, and other sports so it was a really fun and enjoyable time for me
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Yeah, being blind can be a real bastard sometimes. In fact, a lot of the time, but it happens to be the hand we have been dealt. So have to deal with it the best way that we can.What Im finding difficult is that I am slowly going deaf, am now having serious
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
It’s been going, good, not bad, just school and all its stuff. Enjoying the last days of high school and feeling nostalgic about the days I spent in this school. What I can say is that high school, without a doubt, gives you the most wonderful experience
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@TwardI’m really really sorry about your hearing problems. I know a bit what does it mean to have hearing impairments because about six months ago I had a problem, which was passed in a few minutes, but kept going on for a week.I instantly became inactive, I
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Tom, Im extremely sorry to here about the hearing difficulties, that must be a nightmare. unfortunately this goes along with the general theory Ive had over the past few years which is that fate, or karma or God or whichever cosmic force doles out the bad stuff
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
I also do some tests orally, but its worrying for me. For example, when the teacher asks the question, and I dont remember it right away and keep thinking for some minutes, I got the impression like my teacher is saying to me, come on, dont you know
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Tests are generally given to me in braille, and I complete them on whatever device I have at the time. Sometimes, if they arent brailled, they might be done orally. but this was rare and depended on the teacher.Speaking of final exams... I should be doing
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
My problem regarding music is that I can’t listen to the music produced in my country. It’s lyrically and instrumentally bad, and the rap music here gets on my nerves seriously.We’ve come to the point where we cannot really call it music. It’s totally wasteful
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Very sorry about the hearing loss as well, being deaf-blind is a bitch. I also hate doing any kind of assignment orally, because as well as the problem Afrim mentioned, which is embarrassing, its much harder to edit something youve written. On an unrelated note
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Hello,@dark: Regarding firefly I dont know much, but I do have perhaps some interesting news. I think, at Feel The Force Day this year there might be some Firefly characters or at least, people in costumes. Some costumers might speak in character, some might
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Cae, encouragement speaches annoy me as well, mostly because they are made by people whos worst traumer is not feeling like doing their homework or not feeling accepted rather than being actively barred from doing things or worse. I will say I loved secondary
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Cae, very well put haha. @Dark, I think Ill probably get Blindsquare, whenever I can scrape up some money for it. Ive always been slightly curious as to how well I might sing, but have never really felt like trying it, think Ill stick to learning piano off
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Wanderer, Sorry about your disilusion with school. Id like to say your wrong but not quite. Personally i did have a great time at uni because people were decent and I was doing something amazingly interesting and getting involved with things that interested me
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
At Wanderer: I think you just summed up my life again.Even though the shallow over-achiever sacarin speeches are dreadful and the idea that the majority of people find value in them makes me feel like I belong in a different universe, I still found graduation

Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Well, there have been a few things going on here, though not necessarily for the better. My parents may be going through a divorce, which is bad enough, and Im starting to think about moving, being as Im now eighteen, and already feel like I should be doing much

While the guide does say that you have to change your region, you actually do not for BK 3. Just set BK3 to output text to the clipboard, install Instant translate and there you go! Changing your region is only necessary for the games made with Text Game Maker

Im not sure what you mean about Backtrack through buffy to get the full story its just like anything else, if you want the full story you start at the startt. Its got some streight out sort of monster of the weak type episodes, but I can see that that is going

@Kg4, good luck with the job. Unfortunately Ive got always been a bit too scared to balls up my computer to try all this region changing shenanigans with the Japanese games, not to mention installing god knows how many bits of software, I actually wish
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Dark, thanks. I will be starting out on the plant floor since I have no previous work experience, but will be moving to a customer service position once I have been there for a bit. I have never watched any of Buffy but maybe I should. I loved the Narnia books

@Kg4, Im sorry to here about your other half. What sort of job will you actually be doing for these vision people? @Tom, I dont think we have Hardys here in England, though I assume its a chain of some sort like Mcdonalds or Subway, so I cant say much about
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Dark, as far as Hardees goes it is a fast food chain. Actually there are multiple chains owned by the same company Carls Junior, Hardees, and Red Wheel and they all basically sell the same type of food. They have cheese burgers, chicken sandwiches, ham
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Dark, yeah, having any kind of medical condition is a major drag. Im glad you are feeling much better. I know I am beginning to which has made all the difference.As for myself today I took my son to see the new Movie Home and then we stopped off at Hardees
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Well, I just saw this and read all the posts. As for me, My life has been a series of ups and downs since I lost my partner, Randy, in July of last year. Without getting too much into it, he had an infection that he let go for too long and it damaged his liver
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@mirage, judo is easier sinse everything is contact anyway so everyone needs some hands on demonstration, indeed my brother did quite a bit when he was a lot younger and I went to a couple of classes although not many. I wouldnt try judo these days sinse I dont
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
As for myself April is going well. I was out of town a couple of days ago doing a bit of shopping with my family when I found the entire series of Lois and Clark on sale which I purchased. So for a lot of this month I have a feeling Ill be spending plenty
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Hello,Agreed, in the group class the teacher goes round the class as you are doing the exercises, and will correct my posture physically or whisper to me when he comes to me if he notices anything. Its also quite similar and a very nice counterpart to my one
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Ive always wanted to try martial arts, for self-defense as much as anything. Ive heard a lot of blind people take judo, and if I ever move to a bigger city where there might be classes, I may try it. I dont have it all the time, but every now and again, I get
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Aaron, I can definitely see the cultural side being fun, I get about the same with my Italian language lessons which is nice. As I said unfortunately all the Tai chi Ive seen hasnt had individual classes, just the teacher at the front of the class emonstrating
Monthly Chat april 2015
Well another month, another chat topic. For people who dont know (last months id sort of get missed for some reason), the purpose of these topics is to be a more casual place for discussion. After all, the offtopic room is not intended to just be the tech discussion
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
Fingers crossed, things are looking up for me as this month begins.I have epilepsy, and also non 24 disorder, and those two things collide sometimes and cause me problems. But Im sleeping better, and feeling better, and I hope that means good things

Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
I took Tai Chi a few years back. The instructor described many of the postures, and the occasional more direct correction/explanation didnt seem too out of place, as it was a beginner class and plenty of sighted people needed correcting (sometimes verbal
Re: Monthly Chat april 2015
@Aaron that is cool. What sort of martial arts do you do? And how do you learn in the class if the instructor stands at the front and demonstrates? Ive always fancied learning Tai chi, for the exercise and philosophy, but all the classes Ive seen the instructor
