  1. Catching up on lab and lectures. I don't think I'll have time to go to the gym all this next week. Damn tests. I rented The House of Sand and Fog but I haven't had a chance to watch it so 1.6something down the drain.
  2. I prefer 4 buttons because I'm too stupid and uncoordinated to have to deal with 6 buttons.
  3. I posted about this but no one gave a crap. flock you guys. and flock censoring.
  4. I'd like to see AMD reclaim the gaming CPU market but Intel is kicking their ass up and down for the most part.
  5. I love that site. It's really strange reading those and it makes me feel sad. But flock Jon.
  6. It would be easy to trick the average person. Nice way to pick up chicks.
  7. http://ghosts.nin.com/ Last night, out of the blue, Nine Inch Nails released a new instrumental album called Ghosts I-IV. It's a volume of 4 albums, each with 9 songs. If you are a fan of NIN's instrumental stuff like in The Fragile and And All That Could Have Been you'll like this. But the big thing about this release is not only the music, it's how it is being delivered. You can choose to download high quality MP3 (320 kbps), FLAC, or Apple Lossless. Each of the songs has it's own little artwork which is a really nice touch for when you load it onto an ipod. Also, it was released under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike license so you can remix, share, do whatever with the music. It seems that Trent Reznor truly understands, or is at least doing his best to understand, how to deliver music in the digital realm. The first volume is free to download to anyone. You can get it from the site or through any torrent site. An official torrent was released somewhere with a message that kind of went like "Bit torrent is a great technology blah blah." However, you have to buy the other volumes. The entire package comes in different forms with different costs: - $5 for a one-time download in any of the formats I mentioned above. - $10 for one-time download and a mailed copy of the CDs with booklet art. You have to pay for shipping which is pretty expensive really because I'm paying $7 shipping. - $75 for a Deluxe version that comes with a bunch of extra stuff like something Blu-ray - and finally the $300 limited Ultra Deluxe edition (2500 copies only) that comes with even more stuff and is signed by Trent Reznor. - You can also get it through Amazon (though MP3 quality is not as good and does not come with all the extras) and another site w hi If you want to support properly done digital distribution then please go ahead and actually pay for it. If you're anti-RIAA, anti-big labels that suck, this is the best way to stick it to them. Also, it's cheap. http://ghosts.nin.com/main/order_options And the site is SLOW AS HELL. It took me over 2 hours to submit my order and to download it. Holy crap it's slow.
  8. I truly loved that first skin. There was something unique about it. However, it was not converted to IPB 2.x. The new skin is very professional looking which is a new direction for us.
  9. I remember that one dude who got super pissed off and asked for us to delete his account. Hahaha...
  10. I look forward to seeing gaming benchmarks with this type of RAM.
  11. Looks cool. The Star Wars ones were fun so I expect good things from this.
  12. Well yeah, but I'm talking about here.
  13. Unfortunately it has a lot to do with anything here especially at a younger age. I know pretty much how you feel ryuken. Unfortunately I have no good advice to give since I'm trying to figure it out myself. I don't really have any close friends right now, just the ones I see in school. And one of them has been my childhood friend since elementary school but we still have a fairly superficial relationship and we rarely do anything. I have a very superficial relationship with everyone in my class. The extent of our conversations are basically "Hey, how's it going? I've got a lot to study. I hate studying. I'm so behind. I don't want to go class. flock this." It's just so menial and trivial. I don't really know, I've pretty much stopped caring. I'm too busy trying to study (not actually studying, just trying to motivate myself to do it). Just don't think the way you are is wrong or abnormal. It's different but not wrong. You'll eventually find a niche. Keep your head up, keep trying, but don't be fake. And to answer your question about whether friends are important. Yes they are. Very important which is why my life feels so flocking empty right now
  14. It's coming to PC so I'll be able to give you the final verdict whether it's good or crap. Stay tuned.
  15. If you have an insurance card you can show it them and ask them if your policy is still active since you're not sure. You'll have to pay the co-pay on the spot.
  16. It's probably lupus. Just kidding. But seriously, go see a doctor. Go to the ER or something.
  17. I don't really know. I think its the people. When I got most of my posts his place was a bit different.
  18. I think the game looks very interesting. It's made by the same dev team that made the badass Hulk game and you can see some gameplay similarities. Here is an extended trailer http://www.gametrailers.com/player/30524.html
