    Hearts of Iron 3 - How To...

    Love the game and have been learning new things about it each time I play. I have one thing that I can't figure out for the life of me. How can I get the AI to do an invasion that is not land based? I've always played as a European country but when I played as the US, I couldn't figure out...

    Architect type software

    Does anyone have any recommendations on software that can be used to draw plans of houses? It needs to be relatively "easy", so I'd sacrifice powerful features for ease of use. Googe Sketchup comes to mind, I will propose that as an option. Any others?

    Villanova/Kentucky

    I've been watching college basketball all last night and all day today. Only game not in HD is Villanova/Kentucky. I get CBS from Philly, does it have something to do with it being a constant feed? They wont swap out another game with nova playing. Even so, how ridiculous!

    GameznFlix really sucking lately

    Joined GameznFlix a couple months ago, when I joined the xbox 360 crowd. For 2 months everything worked fine (but slow). Always had things from the queue shipped promptly and things returned show returned promptly. For the last two weeks everything has been AWFUL. Games show "On Order"...

    Fantasy sports - Vetoing trades

    I have reached the breaking point in my fantasy career. I will be retiring after this football season. I had a trade vetoed today. It is my opinion that the veto system is flawed in fantasy sports. Too many people use it as a way to block trades or they feel it is their responsibility...

    High School Cheerleading Cheers

    Ok, I haven't been in high school for 8 years, but I can't get some of the chants out of my head. These were typically done during basketball games by cheerleaders. "We got spirit, yes we do, we got spirit, how about you?" "Come on *name* grant our wish, all we want to hear is swish!" "We...

    Netbeans vs Eclipse

    First, let me point out that I am not biased towards either. I had been using ultra-edit for years as my development tool. Now that I joined the IDE club awhile back, I am not seeing why Netbeans is getting pooped on so much. It is not a bad IDE and the GUI stuff is way superior, in my...

    When do you say to yourself, "I spend to much time on ATOT."

    Ok, I think when my DREAMS at night involve me getting banned from the Anandtech Forums should be considered a sign that I spend too much time on here. I basically check it out when I wake up, go to work, get bored (which is all day at work), get home from work, before I go to bed. To be...

    "Diversity" in America

    I dont want to get too wordy, so I will try to be brief and to the point. Basically, people get on my nerves. Today's group is people who promote diversity as equality but execute it as special privileges. Diversity is promoted regularly as a benefit to the organization because it brings...

    Call Of Duty 2 Multiplayer

    They didn't fix any of the issues from the previous version. People can still launch grenades all over the map (not to mention not enough new maps) and the damage doesn't seem to be realistic. I guess it is my own fault for expecting a realistic game. This is just quake with a WWII flavor.
