skyrim is actually kind of hard if you insist that your melee sworder wears nothing but robes
That is pretty hardcore.
i ended up wandering all the way to markarth from the first barrow
at like level 5... in robes
it was...interesting
oh and also i haven't upgraded my sword
unsmithed iron sword
keep hoping to find a steel one
keep getting disappointed
what is the theme, here
i just think swording in robes will look pretty cool
and i'm trying to do a kind of roleplay where my character is kind of like the justicars in ME where they are like religiously devoted to punishing evil and injustice with brutality
God, our old server runs SBS 2003. Such a huge pain in the ass. Are the newer versions just as bad?
They're not as bad but they're still pretty bad.
I'm ditching SBS 2003 (finally). I'm running a Hyper-V server with two licenses of Windows Server 2008 R2 - one virtual server is running Active Directory, the other is running Exchange. The licensing costs more than SBS but I can run everything on one physical box.
I'm just having a bitch of a time getting this old SBS server out of the environment. The way you're supposed to do it is uninstall Exchange using the control panel - the uninstaller will clean all of the references to the old Exchange server out of the Active Directory schema when you uninstall.
But this server has been going "no u" in four different ways that are all idiosyncratic to SBS.
It's like a clingy ex-girlfriend that won't accept that you're breaking up with her.
I've been to some talks and read some articles and stuff on the hows of virtualization, but never really the whys. I'm guessing it's probably because you can restart or disinfect/reformat limited parts of the server without doing the whole thing? And that you can limit hardware resources, so that when your Exchange server goes nuts, it doesn't slow down your file server?
Are there any other advantages, or is that pretty much it?

Why are the prices so cheap. $2 a pound for boneless chicken breast? Do they fill it with lead shavings.

Yeah, people aren't really good at explaining the whys, and it sometimes comes across like some buzzwordy panacea. "Virtualize!" "Why?" "Because virtualize!"
In my case, I'm doing it mostly because I do want to run Active Directory and Exchange on the same physical server, and you're not supposed to run them on the same Windows instance.
In the past when I've virtualized it's for similar reasons - low-impact software that conflicts with other low-impact software. Like running two webservers that both want port 80. Or two database-driven applications that both want port 1433. Stuff like that.
The flexibility is nice, too. Maybe you want to run an evaluation of a new version of Windows server. You can create a virtual machine for it and you don't need to futz around with reformatting a physical server.
Or in a larger data center environment, you can retire old server hardware just by moving the virtual guests over to a different physical server. You don't have to go through the whole convoluted process of an Active Directory or Exchange migration with different server names and IPs. You just take the guest offline in the middle of the night, save the guest state, and copy it over to the other server.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
On this server we have a little bit of CPU time and RAM left over after Active Directory and Exchange are fully fed, so I'm using it to evaluate Ubuntu Server as a possible Intranet host.
I could be using a desktop computer to do that evaluation, but that's not quite as good - if performance sucks, I dunno if it's the hardware or the software. This is a better test.

You can also do things like... hey, Active Directory was given 100G and Exchange was given 200G, but Exchange is running low, so let's just reallocate another 50G to Exchange. You have to take the guests offline to do that, but you don't have to go through any actual hardware upgrades or RAID configuration. You just use the native utilities to expand one virtual hard disk and a third-party utility to shrink the other.

I hadn't even considered ease of migration. We're not even running an Exchange server anymore though; just an AD server/file server. Though, I have a couple instances of SQL server running on it now, too. It's too bad the licensing is so expensive for virtualizing. :?
1) what race?
2) what fighting style?
3) what difficulty?
4) should i use cheats?
1) One of the spindlier, "thiefier" ones
2) Limit yourself to short swords (or knives), clubs and hunting bows. Things a poor scavenger would have some skill using.
3) Hard?
4) Only hilarious ones.
if you get a super bow-y character how many shots does it usually take to kill a non-god-tier enemy
bows are really good in stealth
a little rough in open combat until you pick up some perks (mostly the ones that let you move quickly with the bow drawn and the one that increases draw speed)

Its pink slime.
I have a 42" in my living room, so my opinion is that TVs in the bedroom are silly.
Edit: Also hey chat. No Jays baseball this evening has me in a sour mood! Regardless of the fact that they already won today.

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
skyrim sorely needs some kind of direction imposed on it
obvs you cant understand

It is the worst thing.
I have used it as intended perhaps once.
The other 913 times it has been a nuisance.

There is no such thing as "too big"

i'm definitely not playing on hard. i am not the type of video gamer who wants to die often.
It's Japanese for girly man/pretty boy. They're the anime characters where you aren't quite sure what their gender is.
1) Nord
2) Nordic
3) Nordmal
4) Nor...no
I only play Skyrim hard.

Pretty much this. If anything, magic is weaker than the godlike sneakbow.
So 95% of all anime characters then. Thanks.
