    Under the Dome-CBS

    I missed that this was being made a TV show. I thought that UTD was one of King's better novels the whole time I was reading it...until I got to the shit fuck retarded ending.

    Laptop bags

    I like the Hazard 4 bags. My sherman will fit a 13'' notebook which is fine since I only carry an ipad these days.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Windows has had baller handwriting recognition since vista, it was just that no one used it. I had a convertible 13'' HP that I used through college that was amazing at reading my scribble. The only thing it didn't do well was formulas, and they fixed that with Win7 and the Math mode.

    Good luck, 3k used to get you a decent used car, now you're looking at 6-9k for a nice honda/toyota because no one wants to get rid of them.

    Do I want a tablet or a convertible?

    if you do your notes in outline form keyboard is the only way to go. That said, I used a convertible for notes at school in the days before even the ipad was out. I loved it. Convertible + OneNote is prolly the best college device ever.

    Buying a car?

    Nice. I used the carwoo.com website that does pretty much the same thing as you described. Select your options and it emails all the dealers within your radius and lets them make offers. Cool thing about it was that since it's done all through the carwoo website that the dealers never get...

    Microsoft should have dropped the optical drive and maybe they could have gotten away with selling it as an always online device/no trading. Tell people that you're going to follow a steam like system of multiple weekly sales and discounts. I think that would have went over better. Maybe...

    Man of Steel

    Not sure why you are worried, with the amount of reviews, trailers, and other shit that you have read and watched you prolly have the whole plot down pretty well at this point.

    I didn't buy a ps3 until last week just because I finally gave in to all the exclusive ps3 titles that I wanted to play. I said fuck it and already pre-ordered a ps4. I will still play 90% of my games on PC and just the exclusives on ps4.

    Texas Says It's OK to Shoot an Escort If She Won't Have Sex With You

    Are you agreeing with me? He shouldn't have been tried for murder because of that law, it's a valid defense from prosecution in Texas. If he were to have been charged with manslaughter they might have been able to make it stick. I'm sure you are right about other states but I don't know...

    Texas Says It's OK to Shoot an Escort If She Won't Have Sex With You

    He wasn't found not guilty because he was stopping a theft, but because he didn't meet the elements of murder according to the way the law is written. Should have tried with manslaughter.

    The V1 is still a great detector, with the new app + custom sweeps I isnearly as goodas the redline. The redline does have better off axis detection plus with the excort live app you can "teach" your redline to ignore false alerts that you drive by everyday which quiets it down in the city...

    Piecing together a speaker system

    After reading it again it sounds like you have a single crossover. In that case your range of acceptable crossover settings would be 55-150. I'd set it to 100 just because you wouldn't want your bookshelves to be getting 55Hz signal. I was confused for a moment when I read your post because...

    if you watch all these fucking trailers you will have seen most of the fucking movie...does that not bother any of you guys? For movies that I know I'm going to watch I will go out of my way not to see trailers.

    Windows 8

    I don't disagree that the "metro" ui isn't a good interface. I guess the disconnect comes from the fact that you can use the OS in the same way you used windows 7 with no issues at all. As a "power user" I don't see why you would go back into the start screen when you are already at the desktop...

    Windows 8

    Just so we are clear, the reason windows 8 sucks is because it's missing the start button and while your working in a desktop application using the start screen makes you lose focus on that application? Other than the visuals, it's the same system, you could never multitask - the start menu has...
