That is the brilliance of OpenGL, it is fully supported to this day, so worst-case scenario is that you could load it up in GLQuake.

Pretty much, or risking our lives by fighting a massive hoard of enemies. Wearing metal armor, swimming in sewer water, and getting lost in an underground labyrinth are just some of the things I hope I never experience.

Shrugs, they might be making another Quake game soon, though I doubt it would be Quake 1 oriented. Even if it was, it probably would try to cater too much to modern audiences. Honestly, the reason we are in the situation we are in is because of the mentality of many individuals that they need to see the entirety of a game in a short period of time. "I have to work and have a busy life, so I don't have time to get immersed in this world, but I want to beat the game and it is frustrating if I don't". This mentality frustrates me to no end, since it dumbs down gaming for a thought process that shouldn't exist. You should never be worried how long it takes to complete a game, even if you only have a few minutes to play a week, since the entertainment comes not from finishing the game but from the experiences of playing it. Why people get so impatient and feel the need to complete games the same week they bought it is beyond me.

Me, I am a bit insane, but I don't like to put games on lower settings. When I play a game, I like to set games to the maximum possible setting as I feel anything else is sacrificing something. I probably would need to upgrade my graphics card if I was to play the new Doom, luckily I haven't even touched a game that started production in this decade so I am pretty safe in that regard.

We have many expenses here, as I listed before. Water, food, lights, gas, electricity, internet, mortgage/rent, transportation, life insurance, car insurance, house insurance; the list goes on. It is better to be in poverty here, since the government will give you many benefits, to working since you will have so many things to pay for that you are unable to afford them all.

Yeah, I don't travel. There is nothing I really want to see, anything I want is on the computer, and getting away just is boring.

As for the locals being nice, people are people. I don't think there is that big of a difference between areas.

That is definitely an interesting newspaper article indeed. Definitely can't be me, I haven't worked with tires in a few years and never did it in Massachusetts :P
