    MX518 mouse buttons not working in UT GOTY?

    Hi Dave :) cheers for that Solar - I tried this, but it didn't work for me... but I was trying to map F6 and F7. As a question - what O/S are you running?

    Nuclear power

    I agree completely - we need something else. I think that Nuclear is the best choice for now - but only because of the environmental and health damage of coal/oil/gas. We need much, much more use of renewables (and this also means environmentalists need to shut the hell up about stopping wind...

    Nuclear power

    it's all about the base load Bart - I am a big fan of renewables, I want to see us using lots more solar and wind (and especially moving toward microgeneration on rooftops etc), but the simple fact is that renewables cannot ever produce the steady state base load power that's needed to run the...

    Nuclear power

    oooooh, good thread. this is my pet topic - heck, I'm even writing a book about it (expect it to be published sometime after hell freezes over :rofl:) I am pro nuclear. Personally, I feel that if the danger of global warming is as significant as we think it is, then we should be shutting down...

    You got owned!

    some of them are pretty sick, as folks obviously broke bones etc - but that one... well there's a story there - the guy got sucked through the engine and *survived* His helmet caused the compressor blades to shatter, which cut of the fuel supply almost instantly - he didn't even break bones if...

    European constitution

    Just a wee addendum from me, less structured argument, more just comments on what has been said. The UK's rebate from the EU budget is a historical hangover, and should go - but only when the CAP is scrapped (preferably) or reformed. IMO The Common Agricutural Policy is bad on just about...

    End of an Era (for us anyways!)

    Well... It has been a lot of fun, a long happy journey, but like a tired old dog, =[FDC]='s time has finally come. To all of the clans who have had scheduled matches against us over the last few months, when we showed up with half a team, or even not at all, our apologies - everyone wanted...

    Space Flight vs Social Programs

    When you spend money on high tech development in order to prompt new technology, it has an enormous positive effect on society as a whole. IF you decide to develop, for talkings sake, a space hotel, when you award the initial multi-million pound contracts, that money doesn't vaporise - it is...

    European constitution

    Some points. 1) The UK *IS* a part of Europe. Get Over It. 2) The UK is *NOT* a Strong, or Thriving nation. It's an also ran, a has been, and to be blunt about it, it's xenophobic attitudes like the one you are displaying here that are to blame. Like it or not, this is a global economy, an...
