    Homeland

    Claire Danes is becoming a bit pear-shaped. Still, I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers.

    Interstellar (2014)

    They're just making shit up. I will say they are puttingwaymore thought into it than the writers ever did.

    Dark Souls 2

    Okay, so I picked this up for 15 bucks for my PS3. Getting ready to start playing it during my 2 week Christmas vacay. Any recommendations on character builds purely for PvE? In Dark Souls I kinda just winged it, ran with a cleric-type build wielding a halberd and upgraded stats...

    Homeland

    Yeah this felt more like a season premiere.

    Black Mirror(UK) Season 2

    It does make me wish they would revive The Twilight Zone or Outer Limits. Not sure if these types of shows are expensive to produce since it would involve new sets every episode.

    Black Mirror(UK) Season 2

    "Marathoned" (there's only 3 episodes per series) through this just recently. Majority of it was good to just interesting. "Fifteen Million Merits" was by far the best episode although I haven't seen the Christmas special yet.

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    Well, she does have hairy arms.

    North Korean Hackers Attack On Sony

    I seriously doubt people would "forego going to the theater" because of North Korean threats.

    The 100

    Oh, and Clarke's boobs.

    The Interview - Rogan and Franco attempt to assassinate Kim Jong-Un

    What? Are they going to paratroop in ala Red Dawn? Total bluff they should have called.

    I, Origins: Jimmy Darmody whacks Intelligent Design

    Yeah that sounded bad ass.

    Grimm

    No, otherwise Nick would've been de-Grimmed before discovering he was one.

    Homeland

    Maybe he's there for diplomatic reasons? Remember, Lockhart asked Carrie if she had heard anything about back home. They were "shopping for his replacement" and that "something was up" or some such.

    The Flash

    True. Although, IIRC, they were the cause of the disruption in time in the series finale.

    Marco Polo

    Is this family viewable?

    The Flash

    Yeah, haven't you fuckers watched Star Trek? Jeez.

    Headphones & Audio Devices

    Can anyone recommend headphones that have a built-in microphone amplifier? This isn't for gaming but for work so don't need amazing audio quality. Colleagues are having trouble hearing me with the cheap piece of shit I'm using currently. Adjusting the Windows amplify properties seemingly has...

    Computer Issues

    The old motherboard has 4 SATA + 2 additional via another controller. However, the BIOS setting is either all RAID, ACHI, or IDE. I set it to RAID, configured the 4 2TB drives as JBOD, then leave the SSD as a single drive. Windows installation only sees the JBOD array, not the SSD. The thing...

    Computer Issues

    Don't care. It's basically a media PC and I have gigs of movies, TV shows, pr0n, etc. It would be a pain in the ass to split that across multiple drives. I'd rather just have one massive drive and dump everything onto it. I have external drives which I've backed up anything super important...

    Desktop Computers

    And, honestly, is it even all that noticeable anymore? Other than the numbers spewed out by a benchmark program? Processors are so fast it's like you're just splitting hairs at this point. I have an i5-2500K that I had gotten up to 4.2GHz. But eventually just said 'fuck it' and set it all...

    Computer Issues

    No, this is during Windows installation. You know, when you pick the drive you want to install it to (this is a boot drive obviously). The SSD just ain't there. It'll show the RAID drive and any single HDD. But if it's an SSD, it's not there for some dumb reason. I can switch the SATA...

    Computer Issues

    So I bought another motherboard, a newer ASUS socket AM3+ with the SB950 southbridge -- EXACT same fucking problem. If the SATA controller is configured for RAID the Windows installation will not see the single SSD. I've Google'd it and can't find anyone else complaining about this issue. To...

    Terminator Genisys (2015)

    I disagree. I don't believe there's anything in science and engineering that says a T1000-like machine couldn't exist. Also, I believe in T2, when Arnold got shot up, Sarah asked him if the wounds would heal. Pretty sure he said yes. Which suggests the biological layer cells do die and...

    Interstellar (2014)

    This wiki article explained away a few of my grievances. I kinda wish they explained this in the film (maybe they did and I wasn't paying attention): Interstellar (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I still maintain that the time dilation they experienced on water world is wholly...

    Terminator Genisys (2015)

    It's not really a reboot. All of the Terminator movies (with the exception of Salvation? I never saw it so I don't know) deal with time travel and altering the past/future. This is a Terminator movie being a Terminator movie.

    Street Fighter 5

    I love Street Fighter. But none of my friends know how to play and won't bother to learn. And I just get my ass beat online.

    Terminator Genisys (2015)

    Well, remember the Model 101 units were designed for infiltration. So there is some logic to Skynet designing old-man versions. Regardless, come on...it's Arnold!

    Terminator Genisys (2015)

    Looks awesome to me (I'm a huge Arnold fan, so there). And I enjoyed T3 for what it was. I never did see Salvation, though.

    The Flash

    Oh my God, I'm going to have to start watching Arrow just for Felicity.

    The Walking Dead

    Well, remember how boring season 2 was when they were at the farm? So, yeah, screw the hospital.

    The Walking Dead

    Yeah it was definitely an accident.

    Interstellar (2014)

    Pretty fucking sure no one is going to survive falling into a blackhole. The only out for this is that it wasn't a blackhole but an artificial construct that just happened to behave like one.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Well, he effectively made Star Trek into Star Wars. So maybe this franchise is a better fit.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Millennium Falcon gave me chills -- very cool and I'm not really a Star Wars fan (I prefer (old) Trek). Roll-a-R2 looked like another merchandisable Lucas toy.

    Dark Souls 2

    Was hoping Dark Souls 2 would go on sale for ~$20 for the PS3 this holiday season. Now, not sure if I should just wait for the PS4 version this spring (I realize it won't be $20 but that's okay). I read a lot of complaints about the PS3 version's graphic quality and framerate. Was it really...

    Actually, shouldn't they have noticed something was up with the signal? It should have beenextremelyred shifted.

    Simple video recording & editing software?

    Can anyone suggest an alternative to Avidemux - commercial or free? All I'm looking to do is clip about segments of an AVI or MP4 file, resize, and re-encode it with a different video and audio codec. Additionally, sometimes I'll need to append multiple clips together, re-encode, etc.
