So, I stumbled across an article earlier today about the SImulated Universe theory, where everything we have ever experienced and ever will experience, is part of a simulation. Kind of like the Sims, but on a more advanced level. A way more advanced level. We already have supercomputers that can run basic simulations of up to 14 billion years long in about 30 seconds. That's f***ing crazy. Imagine what we can do in 50 years. We possibly could simulate the earth being created, every event that has happened, and even the 7 billion individual human minds that populate the world. And it would only take a few seconds. Each mind in the simulation wouldn't be able to tell you it's a simulation, and to them it would percieve that live is moving at a constant pace just as we do. Another theory I came across is that God is really just a programmer, who programmed our world and minds are ran a simulation, yet personally contacted some people to help advance his simulation. Crazy stuff. But looking at all this, I thought about other life in the universe. Through rough estimates, we can figure there's upwards of 100-200 billion galaxies in our universe, each with billions upon billions of stars, each star with planets orbiting it and those planets with moons. We can't be the only planet with life. There's probably 10-20 billion earthlike planets in just our galaxy, which can support life like ours. But ,we can't descriminate. We have no idea what conditions other forms of live can live in, making the possibilities of life on other planets extremely, undoubteldy likely. So...why haven't we met any? Humans have an undoubtable fascination for the thing we call Space, and traveling through it, and I would think other intelligent life would too. Intelligent life older than us, possibly. Inteligent life who has even mastered space travel, so why haven't we heard from them? There's some theories out there that there has been intelligent life who have contacted us, telling us that the way we are going won't end well. To back off from space and fix our problems. Again though, theories and speculation. How about you guys? what do you think? Simulated Universe article - http://listverse.com/2013/12/02/10-reasons-life-may-be-a-computer-simulation/

I saw a mod on the nexus recently that removed the Essential tag from every NPC in the game. I don't know how he did it, but I feel like that could make for an interesting, though short, playthrough of the game.

From what I know of the government and media, we have no problem tacking on the word Islamic to the other word Terrorist. Muslims in general are not terrorists by nature, as every american citizen seems to think so, and we need to understand that the people who blow themselves up at airports or public areas are not doing it because they love Allah. They're doing it because they think it's necessary to cause terror in exchange for change, and they're using Allah as a front.

I would recommend getting Windows 7 rather than Windows 8.

House MD Season 6 Episode 8 Good show,Kinda Repititious,House is hilarious,Racists and sexist jokes everywhere Pretty good show 8/10

Everybody is worried about the skills not being in the game. While I agree that it could be a bad thing, I think that Bethesda has been good to us so far and they'll pull through. If the layered perk system works like people think it'll work, things will be good (if not better) than having skill points.

I have an AMD card, but no Raptr, and the same problem. I'm quite frustrated and just want to play my damn game, so if you have any magical solution I will pay you in all the Trident Layers you want.

My game is having a freezing issue in the opening slideshow. After a re-install with no mods, it continued to freeze certain times when I started the game, yet let me play other times. The addition of mods is a slippery slope, because sometimes it works fine, yet when I close the game and open it again, it will freeze and require another restart. Adding any more mods is out of the question, because at that point it freezes consistently no matter what I do. If anybody has any tweaks to the Ini files that might help me or suggestions that would be great, thanks in advance. Edit: I apologize I posted this twice, i had not meant to.

I'm sorry it took so long for you to get a response here, but the order your mods are in on the left does not matter. The panel on the right is the .esm's and .esp's your game loads (as i'm sure you know, this is your load order). The left panel is just a list of mods you have installed to your game :)
