Looks like we can rest easy with the PC version, then. They've been developing the PC and eighth-gen ports all along since it was first released, but it took more than half a year of speculation before they decided to go for the big reveal:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DBrG2YjqQA[/youtube]
Quote:Grand Theft Auto V will take full advantage of the power of the PlayStation®4, Xbox One and PC with across-the-board graphical and technical improvements to deliver a stunning new level of detail. Increased draw distances, finer texture details, denser traffic, and enhanced resolutions all work together to bring new life to the cities, towns, deserts and oceans of Rockstar North’s epic reimagining of Southern California.
All new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations will also be available for the PlayStation®4 system, Xbox One and PC with much more to come. In addition, the current community of players will have the ability to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PlayStation®4, Xbox One or PC.
Grand Theft Auto V for PC will also feature a video editor designed for advanced movie-making.

Title says all. Mind if you guys do the whole Linux community a favour and teach this company a lesson on sharing?

Spam Thread Candy Review: Chase's Cherry Mash |

The Stats:
Cherry Mash is a chocolate covered cherry treat that is made by the Chase Candy Company of St. Joseph, Missouri, USA. You might be able to find this in the candy section of your local grocery store or convenience store, but in my particular town, only one store in town has these in stock on a regular basis. To make this easier, Chase has made a handy map listing all the shops across the USA that sell Cherry Mash. You can find that here:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cherrymash.com/find-cherry-mash-candy/">http://www.cherrymash.com/find-cherry-mash-candy/</a><!-- m -->
Nutrition:
In regards to the nutritional value of Cherry Mash, here are the most important stats.
Serving Size: 1 bar.
Total Fat: 13g/20% DV
Saturated Fat: 7g/35% DV
Cholesterol: <1mg
Sodium: 33mg/1% DV
Total Carbs: 39G/13% DV
Dietary Fiber: 1g/4% DV
Sugars: 35g
Protein: 4g
Has 2% of Vitamins A and C, 8% Iron and 3% Calcium.
The Look:
Doesn't this look good? Chocolate covered cherry nougat candy.
My Opinion:
Cherry Mash is tasty, yet very sweet to me. The outer coating of chocolate and peanuts is swell, but the inner Cherry nougat-like filling is very, very sweet. For people who have a big sweet tooth, then Cherry Mash will definitely fit the bill. For people who don't like their candies too sweet, then Cherry Mash is not for you. For me, even though the cherry center is very sweet, I can still eat the whole bar without issue. I do plan on enjoying Cherry Mash again in the future.
The chocolate coating isn't too hard or too soft... it's just right, making this candy easy to chew. The cherry center is much softer than the coating. It will basically melt in your mouth along with the chocolate.
Conclusion:
Cherry Mash is a nice treat for people who love sweet candy. It's just right for that quick snack that won't spoil your lunch or dinner. For people who can't stand powerful sweet candies or need to watch their sugar intake, then you should pass on Cherry Mash.

I wouldn’t go too long-winded on this one, but here’s what I have to say with the Lenovo A369i my aunt and I picked up at the store.
The phone’s cheap. As in ridiculously cheap. Yet the lads who made this thing shoved in a MediaTek 6572 SoC on it - 1.3Ghz dual core, ARMv7 with 512MB RAM (of which 300-something is reserved for the system, and the rest for the Mali-400 GPU afaik). Antutu benchmarks place it at around 10k, which is pretty much along the same league as Samsung’s Galaxy S II. GTA3 works, San Andreas works, and it’s fluid enough for users to play around with. Build quality-wise, it does feel plasticky, but other than some subtle flaws it feels solid and doesn’t look like it came from a shanzhai sweatshop.
Lenovo didn’t skin the phone much other than some icons and a proprietary launcher* - pretty much everything else is an AOSP-esque affair. It did come with some bloatware, like Norton Mobile Security, some casual fishing game and UC Browser, as well as the usual social stuff like Twitter and Facebook.
They did cut some corners, though, which accounts for the PHP3890 price (it originally retailed for 4,499). There’s no GPS, for one, just some ersatz version i.e. Assisted GPS aka network location services - don’t expect Instagram or some other app that depends on GPS to work properly, but why should I care about IG? Battery life’s a bit of a drag, as Wifi can drain the phone’s juice at a significant rate. Camera is also meh at best - just a somewhat muddled 2MP snapper typical with cheapo devices.
Overall it’s an OK device - it won’t beat a Galaxy S5, of course, but it’s good for messing around and stuff like that.
* - The one on the pic is an Xperia launcher I installed. Didn't really like how Lenovo's launcher looked like, so I ditched it in favour of Sony's.

Anyone still interested in editing the SSC Wikia? |

Title says all. As much as I would like to spend some time doing my stuff to the wiki, I have several other projects to poke around with. The Wikia's more or less in a state of neglect, with newb-ish editors (read: tweens and possibly younger kids) making poorly-written or irrelevant additions to articles.

Keyboard Virus? |

The good news is, this is not on my PC or my brother's.
Just last night, my parents' PC suddenly had a strange behavior with the keyboard. Pressing any of the keys at the far left side (1, Q, A, Z, Tab) will make the PC tower beep, and then all other keys having the same line as the pressed key will respond.
Also, each problem key has some other responses other than the mentioned. Tested with Notepad, pressing A also brings up Winamp, Ctrl+F, and IE. Pressing Z erases an entire line of text. Pressing Tab shuts down the computer. Still so many others I cannot mention them all.
Tried updating the antivirus and running a full scan, no luck. Haven't tried more complex method yet, though.
Additional info: My parents' PC is old. It's still Windows XP, and the keyboard is still the purple plug (PS2)
