It's an EA game... Half of their titles have so much DRM that they may as well be malware.

Who's bright idea was it to upgrade.

Typo, I'm way to lazy to deal with multiple partners of any gender. One wife and one mistress (computer) is enough.

Graphic card driver issue?
There are issues with AMD graphic cards with some games (Diablo 3 for example).
I'd rather be phishing!

I am a Derby County fan, I have been all my life, I blame my dad.
This summer we* have spent 20 million quid on new players, nearly more than we ever have put together before.
And last night we were bought outright by Mel Morris, who had been one of a group of owners before hand, and who had personally funded the summer spending.
Mel is a local Derby boy.
He is also a software developer who made money from a number of ideas and ventures throughout his career, then last year made half a billion quid when King was floated on the stock market. He had put up the startup cash for King back in 2003.
King are the company behind Candy Crush, amongst many other games.
So, to all you Candy Crushers out there, thank you for helping to fund our increased sense of hope and expectation that is currently far outstripping our performances and results, and will no doubt end in disappointment again next May.

I'm just one good idea away from being a half billionaire.

What is this soccer you're talking about? It's football!
|
|
|
|

Rugby football? American football? Australian rules football? Canadian football? Gaelic football?
Oh, you mean Association Football like what they talk about on Soccer AM (Sky TV UK)!

Soccer is a corruption of Association Football that was invented by the English to save themselves having to keep saying Association Football.

That's nothing, Everton broke all their previous records splashing out a reported 17 quid and a double Kit-Kat for Aaron Lennon!

I bought myself a beer to watch the last hour of Transfer Deadline and ended up spending more than Arsene Wenger.

Is it the time of year when students need to start the final-year projects they have chosen? Or is this the time they need to decide if a project is one they want to do? I'm seeing a lot of "How do I <do some high-level complicated project>" questions. Is that what people do these days? Start a degree but want someone else to do their work? If so why become a developer? Do they think that a development job is going to be the same gig, they'll just find someone else online to do their work for them?
I wish people would choose degree subjects they were interested in and had an aptitude for rather than something they think will earn them the most money. Are medical forums plagued with questions like "How to do heart transplant? Plz its urgent".

I think, the solution is much easier ...
They got teached that everything is allready writen and existing. Most of them do not learn something about the "Background". I see it often on my work.
Sometimes it goes a way like this : I need a door, so why not derive from roof and try to build the missing parts around.
