Oh baby!
Maybe that's how quarians operate their suits, they use their forked tongues to move joysticks and push buttons.
I'm imagining a bored quarian girl entangled in the embrace of her lover, too tired to get up, but too comfortable to undress as go to sleep. Her visors lights up and using her forked tongue, she starts playing some rudimentary game that came preinstalled on her suit.

You are not thinking of the possibilities and the capabilities of said modification. There is a very practical application to it that, while it's not aesthetically pleasing, it could be sexuelle pleasing.

>>145671651

The R9 480x is 199$. I think it's a much better alternative, eddrf. Especially considering the 750ti can go up to 170$. Unless you're buying cheap second hand.

I considered going for an AMD card, but they're apparently louder and hotter and I had scoped out the 750ti for some time. Secondly that card was still more expensive than what I had. I got the 750ti for 137 USD.

>>145672748
Sounds nice.
>>
>>145674801
>louder and hotter
The 380x makes not a sound. Don't know about the 480x, since it is not out for another few weeks, I think. As for hot ... dude, you're in Sweden! You need the hot. The price tag, though, very nice.
>>
>>145675526
Thanks.
I could agree with the heat, this summer is really pretty damn cold and wet.

I just realized that I bought the wrong card though, I bought the 1gb version instead of the 2gb version that I was looking at. I'll have to call tomorrow and see if it's worth changing.
Maybe I'll change cards then, maybe. the 2gb version was at 166 dollarinos.

Godammit. I need to learn to re-read and double-check. I'm so eager to be done with things that I end up fucking stuff up.

Friend told me the multi-player was fun and it is but everyone crashed out for the day that I was playing it with. Otherwise I would have just pirated it.
>>
>>145704658
then are you a poorfag or something? I could buy without ever giving a thought all ME DLC's with my 3rd world salary but I played the whole trilogy more than 20 times so I don't see the reason why should I pay for it now
>>
>>145704658

Install the bought version in one place, and the pirated version in another.
>>
>>145704968
Kind of a poor fag but mostly don't want to pay 45 dollars to have dlc for a 10 dollar game.

So I did this and then when I opened the legit version it opened the pirated version but with no DLC and every time I try to open the pirated version it opens but act as the legit version.
