With recent austerity measures, the UK are looking at bringing these fighters back into service.

Thanks David!

A good way to use wine is to build from source and build into /usr/local/wine-$winever-vanilla, point a symlink from /usr/local/wine/ to whatever version you want and add /usr/local/wine/bin to your path.

Very very good for hunting down regressions and not worrying about your package manager, also don't forget to build wine with ccache! ("CC=ccache gcc") to really help with build times, especially if you want to use a patch.

Comparing wine to a full system emulator is your first mistake. It's more akin to running things in a chroot then an emulator. Performance wise it's great as long as the program you are using works perfectly.

I'm a super admin very a couple of dozen games on the appdb with ratings between garbage and platinum and the truth is that nowadays I'm disappointed where wine doesn't run something out the box. It's older games that it struggles with, for instance RAGE worked out the box for me yet something like Starfleet Command 3 doesn't work at all.

If it works, wine is as quick as running something natively. I've never played Eve online on windows for instance, I have no need to. I wouldn't do anything mission critical with it though, don't let the stable tag fool you.

I'd also want them to put in a subdomain that links to the official site so it will always work as intended for everyone who's in the know but still get to stiff the opposition.

ah my bad, didnt even RTFS properly. Thought it was a SOPA like dns block. Well guess TOR it is then. Get a magnet link from the site and let the torrent client do it all.

undid last two vandal edits, main_page as it should be

So get everyone to use http://dot-bit.org/Main_Page

Ofc being a wiki page someone has just ruined it but anyone who should know enough about torrents should also have it in their locker to get dot bit running and then by using piratebay.bit they'll never have to worry about this sort of rubbish again. (check our previous revisions for all the information)

The alternatives are either remembering a static IP address (which could change at a moments notice) or use an alternative DNS root which has its own worse problems.

heh beat me to it by seconds! It so does haha

It might be pronounced differently(is it?) but everytime I read fracking I think of Battlestar and this subject it's funny;

Earthquakes That May be Realted To F*cking close Ohion Oil Well.

Love it :)

I agree with poster below. If you're that upset why don't you download it from pirate bay and donate them the retail cost of the game over paypal to some email address. Also moan about steam activation in the message as why you didn't buy.

That way you can argue you've bought it without the steam bullshit (it's what I do with music when I can)
