So I'm installing the Half-Life 2 Cinematic Mod, right? Well, during the install, it tells me that it can take up to an hour, depending on the speed of my I/O subsystem. It then urges me to use to time to do something useful. However, I'm kinda lost...
Due to not knowing what useful things to do, I must disregard this advice for now. In the event that I should ever come across a situation like this again, though, what should I do?

Masturbate. That'll waste a good 4 minutes or so.
Beyond that, watch a movie/show? Make a sandwich/cook something?

I've got one, read the whole readme for the mod, nobody ever seems to read those things...

Oh, the irony, I almost asked if you were serious then...

I actually read readmes (readme's?) from time to time. Especially if they're short and concern modifications (as opposed to simple software installs).

Oh, the irony, I almost asked if you were serious then... Haha, don't feel bad, people in real life make the same mistake. I'm a pro at making it so you're not sure if I'm being sarcastic or serious. It's like a mix between a serious and sarcastic tone. I'm in the same boat as Luci, I tend to read them for mods and complex software installs. Past that, not often.

Yeah, I find that putting a support URL at the beginning automatically grants them reason to not read the rest and then complain. So I hide the URL in the amidst the readme...

Same thing for readme's.... but I read them if I have a reason to.  Typically I know what to expect and how to use the software. Scorp: You made the right decision by posting on SZ. That's something useful.
