Arghghghg my dvd drive in my laptop is no longer detected for some reason ugh
My built-in camera is no longer detected either. Which means every time I log in and it tries to do its little face recognition thing I get an error message.
But in this case "for some reason" is "because I dropped it, like, a bunch of times."

I'm done with optical drives. They are in the past, I hate them. It removed the one in my laptop so it would stop making stupid noises. Eventually I want to replace it with an SSD.

I think my ideal RPG would have perhaps four well-developed characters, who can all change for the better or worse as a result of interacting with the main character over the course of the game. They all have different motivations, goals, and believable reasons for aiding/travelling with the main character. In addition, they talk to each other off and on, with some contribution from the main character. It'd also be nice if you could guide two of your companions to have a romance (though obviously not inserting it), because I can't recall ever having that as an option.
I'd also like a fully-fleshed game about politics, with managing different factions and legislative goals and such. Obviously this would have to be historical or in another world, not current.
I would like this too. Let's do it.
The first one, I'm guessing? And the romance should be more than "talk to you, butter you up, then we fuck", and then nothing more is made of it except maybe a brief cutscene at the end showing you with your partner. Also, it'd be nice to have an RPG without much combat - if you have to fight someone, for the most part, you're doing it wrong.
You may want to take a look at Winter Voices. It's an SRPG where the enemies are negative emotions stemming from grief. It's an odd take on the genre, and very indie.
Perhaps make the relationship system somewhat comparable to a combat engine? Verbal sparring; instead of killing your opponent, you're trying to change their mind about something?

I was interested in SSD's but then I read that you will constantly loose memory cells moving stuff around. Then I decided to not be interested any more.

I find it odd that someone could claim that they weren't 'the straightest of the straight shooters' and then go on to say that they find the male form incomprehensibly unattractive.
You're lying about something.
well saying I've no experience with that side of matters, would be lying
so no I don't find the male form incomprehensibly unattractive
mostly the ass
or, like, I don't have anything against male assi
I don't really get the appeal of it
also, mantits are nasty
When someone talks about mantits without specifying, I assume they are referring to pecs, which are quite sexy indeed.
If you're referring to fatty manboobs, well obviously singling out a trait that is only found in an overweight, out of shape guy is not a good argument for saying that the male chest is unattractive.
this not something we can make arguments for man, it's pretty damn subjective
God damnit I'm becoming such a sad sack and I hate myself for it
i think i'm in a good place re: just about everything but it's worrying because i've become increasingly frustrated about being single. which usually leads me to make rash and bad decisions just because I want a warm body to be next through the winter and not be alone on valentines

This virus: changed my desktop to some message about YOU ARE INFECTED, RUN YOUR ANTIVIRUS RIGHT NOW NOW NOW DO IT NOW BEFORE YOUR WIFE SEES WHAT YOU WERE UP TO (not kidding about the last part).
Then it put a phony SystemCheck 2011 thing on the desktop which would autorun and pretend to be antivirus software. And pop up ten thousand alerts. And also kill Norton and disable the task manager.
All the hate of a thousand suns is burning in me right now.

Ooh, I like that. And instead of classes, there are various approaches to conversation: persuade/intimidate, plus maybe cooperation with your companions to get a guy to crack or surrender or whatever. And possibly as additional incentive to get good at the conversation system, you get more XP for outcomes that require higher DCs, and less for just killing the guy.

This may sound stupid but did you try system restore?
My dad got something that sounds very similar. First time I went deltree /y C:\ on it. It was time for that anyway.
But then three days later he got the same thing, which is weird as hell to begin with, and a system restore and venture into the registry fixed it.

And it didn't let you run any programs right? I recently fixed a friend's laptop after finding that logging into a guest account let me run stuff then I blasted that fucker. Superantispyware ftw.

It's completely subjective.
But since I can see the merits in the female form despite not being sexually attracted to it, and you clearly do not share my ability to to so when it comes to the male sex, I think it's safe to conclude that your opinions on the relative attractiveness or unattractiveness of entire male bodyparts is worthless.
Like, you're entitled to the opinion that there's nothing appealing about a male ass, but that opinion is really devoid of merit to the point that you shouldn't even interject it into the thread unless someone is polling you about it.
I'm not trying to be rude.
I'm trying to spare [chat] from the occasional need of certain straight men to announce to the world that they don't like cock for no comprehensible reason at all.

Yeah, I couldn't run anything. I tried starting up in safe mode but my antivirus software wouldn't work from there either. I didn't try a guest account though.
Part of the catch-22 of it all was that I couldn't look up how to defeat this thing because it was currently raping my only means of looking up how to defeat it.

Hey, I fixed one of these recently! Were all the dialogs written in broken English? It was pretty funny.
The machine was a Dell Mini 9, had no optical drive and no restore media and they wanted it fixed for $0. I threw Ubuntu on there. Double win for them. It's faster and they can browse all the terrible porn sites they want!

My secondary harddrive in my laptop constantly disappears and reappears.
WHAT
never stop looking at porn
NEVER

But in this case "for some reason" is "because I dropped it, like, a bunch of times."
I have sexual imagery tattooed on the inside of my eyelids.

Becoming?
you'd be able to see the inside of your eyelids i guess?
dunno what this is, but it has hugh laurie
I think Nifty is gonna be my new go-to, since I'm pretty sure they aren't going to computer-fuck me with a horrible virus.
I ran across this the other case. Error 039 or some such?
I'm trying to remember the solution; it was very easy.
No like, I close my eyes and stare into a light and I see porn.

At least Mass Effect 2 is awesome.
I can't imagine they would be
but I have to switch it up between imagining scruffy punky guys making out and actually seeing it
