Yet another reason nobody in their right fucking mind should ever use Uplay. I got Blacklist with my graphics card. I installed it. I got an SSD so I copied Blacklist over to it, installed uplay, tried to launch, and it won't. So I check for registry entries, update them, try to launch, and it won't. So I check uplay for something akin to "verify integrity" on Steam. Doesn't exist. Fucking dumbasses at Ubisoft want me to download 20GB that's already sitting on my hard drive.

He strikes me he was a genuinely nice guy. And seeing he was coming from charity function when it happened I think people could cut the guy the slack. I didn't care for the F&F crap either but that's no reflection on him as a human being. If I could make a dumptruck full of cash doing crap like that I'd do it too.

I had to google the guy, blonde pretty-boy-loyd, no talent to speak of.
So, a Google search tells you Walker was "no talent to speak of"? Wow, just WOW!![]()
No, I had to google his name because I couldnt remember who that was. Once his picture came up I remembered his glorious performances in a number of horrible movies I wish I had never watched.
Nevertheless what your opinion is, his young daughter, his friends and his family will miss him. And IN MY OPINION, he was great in "Running Scared", and also good in "Joy Ride" and in "8 Below". But to each their own.

Paul Walker (Fast & The Furious) died in a car crash today (not during filming the latest F&F7 movie). RIP.
Saw that earlier. Pretty fucked up.

Guys, take your pointy tin foil hats off. How did they get the information that she had mental health issues? They googled her. You can to - look up her name: Ellen Richardson.
Or maybe you prefer to believe that the NSA hacked into Canada's healthcare database and then turned the info over to customs.
Also: I hear that there never was a Soviet Union, much less a fall of the eastern block. It's a lie perpetrated by evil capitalists meant to discredit the virtues of communism.
The real story here is how stupid some people can be by spewing info like that all over the internet and then be surprised that the government can in fact use public search engines. And then there is the fact that apparently no one else uses a search engine - they just take it for granted that some reporter is not trying to slant the story.
