    What a cruel world we and our children are living in

    Not surprised, Twinkies and Wonder Bread were at the top of the hit list for health-conscious living.

    How I wasted $59.99

    I feel the same way about Arkham City, 16GB of which I finally installed just to learn that Games for Windows Live somehow fucks it up and a lot of people have the problem (on Windows of course) with no apparent solution and of course no support and of course the EULA forces us to waive our...

    Creator of McAfee Anti Virus, John McAfee.

    I don't really trust media that feels the need to emphasize that the dude has tats as if though that actually says something factual about his character. This reeks of character assassination and the cumstain writing for gizmodo (as only cumstains would do) is clearly jumping on the bandwagon...

    Windows Time not keeping up/weird times randomly

    UTC (Universal Coordinated Time) is the new name for GMT 0. The registry editing is not technically editing as it is adding a new value to force Windows to sync relative to UTC google copypasta

    Windows Time not keeping up/weird times randomly

    OSX keeps track of UTC and displays time relative to that while Windows just syncs it straight to whatever the most accurate time seems to be. I'm guessing editing the registry is all about making Windows see time the same way so you should probably get to it. Why wouldn't you edit the...

    Dirty Hotels

    lololol at the article photo dude's :notbad: face This is not surprising, I mean it's just part of the "cut corners" approach endemic in Canadian society. The hotel saves money by using only 25% of the disinfectant/soap they should on their 3000 rooms and that adds up to a pretty significant...

    EvE

    OK one last bump to generate some interest before I abandon this thread. Why do I care so much? Because a lot of you guys are bigger gamers than I could ever be and even I think you deserve better than the crap you're playing now. SO hear me out. EvE is not a game you can judge by screenshots...

    Upgrade update!

    Zalman doesn't even have offices outside of Korea, you could be waiting a while for them to get out the ol Engrish dictionary and put gangnam style on mute for long enough to send a response. I feel you on the stock fan noise. the heatsink itself is great but the fan is so ridiculously small...

    Left Arm - Highest Accuracy

    I always just assumed that it's because the left arm is a big target if you're facing a player's left side and it's also the arm that has the most exposure from the front since it holds up guns. Would be annoying but still kind of awesome if CS were like Red Orchestra in that you couldn't hold...

    EvE

    haha I haven't mined a rock since my first month of play. There are pretty much two types of players: PvE guys who mine rocks and build everything on the in-game market, and PvP guys who buy stuff off the in-game market to strap to ships and go blow up other ships. It's very much a yin and yang...

    EvE

    now that i know by experience that CS:GO is a crock of fuck I'm gonna promote this much awesomer game. For those not in the know, basically EvE is an MMO. That does mean some of the mechanics are the same as other MMOs but the focus is very much on PvP and PvE stuff, unlike in other MMOs, is...

    CS:GO $9.99 + Free Weekend

    I'm glad I finally got to try it for free instead of having to buy it on sale and regret it. The improvements across the board are impressive but the spray patterns and crosshair have been fucked with to the point that it's ruined the precise feel that kept me playing CS and CSS. The younger...

    It's time for an SSD

    I would wait at least until the first gen of PCI-E 3.0 SSDs starts to get released for an idea of the speed gap, also if that happens by December 26th then that RevoDrive might be one of the items that gets hugely discounted for Boxing Day sale. I got one of my SATA2 SSDs for a massive discount...

    Opera

    yeah i've been getting that too. after many, many years of Firefox loyalty I've finally switched to Chrome. It launches and renders faster than FF and WebKit dev features make FF's Gecko seem outright dated. Especially cool is how Chrome launches separate processes for every plugin and extension...

    Not enough time

    I think there are three possibilities on the table: the first is that a person is prioritizing out of necessity and really just doesn't have time, the second being that a person is simply marginalizing some potential life goals because they don't want to deal with the risks that may be...

    Donating to Charities

    I've donated a few times to Wikipedia and plan to do so quite a few more times. To me, there has never been a higher priority than promoting the availability of free, unbiased, factual information to as many people in the world as possible and Wikipedia is the best thing going so far towards...
