    Help with younger sister

    Not any based on any kind of fact, as I have yet to meet him or talk with him. Any information I have on the guy is completely second hand. I don't know what he and K get up to, as K doesn't talk to anyone. I have not seen any physical evidence of cutting or of her taking substances. However...

    Help with younger sister

    I found the bfs Facebook last night. Pure happenstance, K tagged him. I plan on talking to him tomorrow. As for drugs... He does weed. Theres no mention of a job. Basically the sort of lad a father would be entitled to point a shotgun at, for daring to touch his daughter.

    Help with younger sister

    Thanks for the reply Cat. Yes, we weren't what you would call close, but I did try to provide for her. The problem is that she has essentially broken off all contact with us. When I spoke to my mother yesterday, I was told that K hadn't been in the house in three weeks. We're all worried about...

    Help with younger sister

    Hey guys...I don't know what to do. I've had a big fight with younger sister, let's call her K. Here's relevant information. I'm late 20s. K is 18 at the end of November. Both of us were raised by our mother. K never really knew our father, because he was kicked out of the house when she was...

    I think I heard elsewhere that this is time limited. Is that true? If so, how long do we have access for?

    Valve Fined $3 Million For Not Offering Refunds to Australians

    I agree. Valve sell Wolfenstein games to German customers in Germany, but the German customers receive an edited version, one that has Nazi iconography stripped. Valve do this because of German laws.

    Poll: GTX 1070 vs. 1080

    I myself will be gunning for a 1070 build. There are system builders in my area and I can save up for a system with a 6700K, 16GB RAM and 1070. I can then later on add a second card.

    Fraudulent bank card charge, looking for tips to stay safe online

    I should do that again. I do have a Swirl Mastercard, one that can only be topped up by going into a store and paying to use it. I did use it at first for all my online purchases, but eventually the cost of topping up got to me. That, and I thought I was safe with my merchants - I only ever use...

    Fraudulent bank card charge, looking for tips to stay safe online

    Yeah, I'm mystified too. I suppose a POS machine (no, not THAT POS! A point of sale machine, i.e. what I use my card at at a checkout) could have been compromised, I remember Target's checkouts were compromised a year or two ago. This is the second time I have been compromised - the first was...

    Fraudulent bank card charge, looking for tips to stay safe online

    Hey guys. Just this evening, as I was walking home from work, I got a text from my bank, saying there was suspicious activity on my debit card. I called them up, they say it was several hundred euros worth, an online shopping transaction that had been done about an hour beforehand while I was...

    Re-reading Terry Goodkind

    You're mis-remembering book 2. There's no dragons that show up. Also, why wouldn't Richard stay at the Mud People village? From his point of view, he's there to marry Kahlan, to marry her as part of the Mud People tribe, it's sorta like a holiday for him since he's just defeated the Big Villain...

    Re-reading Terry Goodkind

    So, I'm re-reading Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series. Love the heck out of it, only this time, I'm taking my time and reading every word, instead of my usual method of just scanning a paragraph and getting the intended meaning out of it. I finished Wizard's First Rule yesterday and a...

    You Can Now Pre-Load all 80 GB of Gears of War 4 on PC

    I remember the 'fun' I had with GFWL. I remember I bought Bioshock 1 on DVD. Put it in, run the installer, it says something at the end about having to connect to the internet to get some needed files, doesn't explain exactly what, fails. Okay... Installer quits and I see about trying to play...
