Watch yourselves on those OCZ Vertex 2 drives. Whatever you do don't use the sleep and/or hibernate functions on them as they've got a chance of never waking back up. My 160GB version locked up a few months back, and took everything on the drive with it. Luckily I keep all my documents in my dropbox folder on a…

I started using LastPass after the LinkedIn hack, and haven't looked back since. It's awesome to not only have completely random passwords for every single site, but to also have LastPass automatically fill in those passwords for me every single time. I wish I had started using it sooner just for the autofill and…

At home I've got a dual 26" 1920x1200 setup, but at work I've got a quad monitor setup between the two computers I have to use (Windows and Linux boxes) at work. I really need a lot more than that though at work. If I could get another 6 on my Linux box I'd be happy. Eight monitors would allow me to look at…

Well, that's it folks. It's time to call in the Darwinism Squads. He doesn't necessarily have to be removed from the population, but for all our sakes he should probably be removed from the gene pool. I've done multi-day gaming sessions myself (Halo 2 between my freshman and sophmore years of high school... shit),…

TF2 isn't that addictive. I only have 820 hours in it... and 250 on the Xbox version before that.

Don't forget that if you're computer is up against a wall, especially a brick or concrete one, you'll probably be getting a shitty connection because of the signal propagation. Basically the wifi signal is going to hit the wall, and some of it is going to bounce back. That bit that bounces back is going to be picked…

As someone who has a couple of gay friends I can tell you right now that while they may prefer men they can still appreciate some fine boobies! Hell, I know a number of women who are big fans of boobies too! Forget that whole sex sells thing, it's all about the boobies.

But I thought "But can it run Crysis" was the oldest meme there is? Well can it?

We're not all that bad. While I do support women having the right to choose I also realize that I know very little about the way that part of the world and it's people actually work, and quite frankly it's their choice how they handle their own affairs up to the point where they're doing serious harm to others. …

"The truth is while some of these women want to wear what they're wearing, there are others who would like the freedom to choose and won't get it unless they leave their homes and families."

Hm, yep I think that would work. I didn't even realize he had a brother...

While I really do like Chris Hemsworth as an actor I don't really think he'd fit into the story real well if he was supposed to be Cormac. Maybe Cormac's brother or something, but I always pictured Cormac as more of a "normal" guy who's not the biggest, fastest, or smartest but still manages to play an important role…

I'd recommend trying a non-fruit wheat beer. I'm a fan of Erdinger's lighter Hefeweizen, but I've also found recently that I quite enjoy Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat as it's got kind of a sweet taste to it but not an overpowering one.

I think I remember seeing something about this years ago on some tv show or documentary. Isn't it also called the fire worm or something like that in some places due to the burning sensation in produces when you try to pull it out?

If there is an exception to a rule then it is no longer a clear cut rule. This is pretty much the definition of a blurred line. If they decide that X is an exception to the rule then why not Y and Z, and if all those are then why not ABCDEF... you get the idea. As soon as a single exception is made it opens the…

Turns out I somehow accidently ordered the wrong pair. They've got normal hi-fi earbuds, and then the expanded bass ones. I apparently didn't check the picture or model # before ordering, and picked the wrong pair. I just went ahead and put in a second order for the right one since they'd already shipped my first…

Well since both my Skullcandy FMJs and my Shures have died on me in the last two weeks, I don't get paid until a week after I start my new job on Monday, and I have no other earbuds left I went ahead and ordered a pair of these. Hopefully they'll be as "good" as the Skullcandy pair was, and who knows they might even…

Well congrats everyone here! You just saw the best parts of the Chernobyl Diaries! No need to go see the movie as it was pretty horrible. Actually the movie just reminded me of a bad copy of The Descent except you're in Chernobyl instead of a cave. So basically if you want to watch the movie look at these pictures…

Well let's see. I've got a 160GB SSD (OS & programs) + a 3TB HDD (data) in my desktop with around 800GB remaining on it. Then I've got 4TB of various drives in my server which will provide backup for all the computers in the house (3TB + 250GB + 250GB + 500GB) as soon as I actually find the time to set that up. …

So I'm surprised no one else has pointed this out yet... most of you are probably attempting to be "mature." Well I don't care. When they shook the box trying to get the lid off this is what I heard, "fap fap fap fap fap fap fap." Future awkward moments when your housemates think they've just walked in on some of…
