Who the fuck thinks eating ground turkey that has sat in a car for several days is a good idea and then is surprised when he's not feeling well after eating it? I never thought I'd have the answer to this question, much less the need to ask it.

I've bought several windows and office keys from s5ean on that reddit. Only had an issue with 1 key not working and he had a new one for me within an hour. Never had any other issues.

When setting up computers for people, I've been installing uBlock if they want an ad blocker, but if they already had ABP I left it alone. Once I saw that I knew I'd be telling anyone I see using ABP to make the switch. Whitelisting benign ads I can understand, as shit needs to get paid for...

I read the whole damn thing, jesus christ.

It's listening for you to say "OK Google", then it sends everything it hears to Google. You can actually go to your Google account and listen to what it has recorded.

4 player co-op, weapon customization, procedural content. This is looking like it could be a lot of fun. Preorder is an extra 10% off if you own the previous one, so it's only $32. So tempted.

Oh I definitely want a Nexus (Pixel) as I want up to date vanilla android if I decide no to root it along with support for all carriers. I had Sprint in the past (EVO 4G, Galaxy Nexus) and a friend uses Ting, but the network isn't good enough where I live to rely on Sprint alone. If my coverage...

The pro-rated data is the reason I'm willing to give Fi a shot. T-Mobile is ass here and Sprint isn't a lot better. Unsure about US Cellular. Once the new Nexus (or Pixel according to rumors) is released I'll be trying it. Hopefully it is good enough, as I rarely use more than 2GB of data, so...

That is really overkill and over the top end of the budget, considering he has added speakers to the list. I wouldn't even buy an i7 for myself. The case might be a good option though and I hadn't thought about using a M.2 SSD. I doubt he'd notice the difference performance wise, but it's not...

The simplest solution would be dropbox or some similar service.

Shit, I forgot the power supply. That's what I get for doing this at work. As far as storage goes, he's got several HDs from the computer it's replacing if he needs more. He's definitely not interested in OCing it ever, plus water cooling scares him. He doesn't want to ever have to tweak...

A friend of mine is asking me me to build him a $1k-$1.5k system (preferably on the lower end) and this is my first pass. He's not a heavy gamer, I think the most taxing thing he plays is Diablo 3 and Skyrim, but he's going to keep the system for 4-5 years and doesn't want to worry much about...

I'll never get tired of this one.

So...Bistromathics?

A friend of mine needs to replace a laptop that recently died and that looks like an excellent candidate for him.

Oh we'll be wary all right. Right up until the next hype train picks up speed and we all hop aboard again.

They're no more difficult to install than any other drive.

Well, Steam denied my second attempt at a refund, so I opened a ticket. I just got a response that the 2 hour playtime limit is still enforced and I do not qualify for a refund. Dammit.

If I'm understanding you correctly, this is very possible. My parents get the TV/Phone/Internet package from TWC and were getting charged for modem rental. When they raised the rental rates again I looked in to it was possible for them to use their own cable modem to avoid the fee. I bought them...

Resubmitted my refund request as I had uninstalled the game before my last one and have made no attempt to play it since. Hopefully it gets granted this time.

Yup, I made sure it was steam wallet because I was going to buy Deus Ex.

I guess 15 hours must be Steam's cutoff or I did something wrong on my refund request that got Steam to deny me.

All these people talking about how awesome their new phone is just makes my wait for the Nexus launch even worse. I hope I manage to get lucky when they go on sale and don't have to wait months for them to be in stock.

Yup. I always buy mice with thumb buttons.

I always hated backspace>back. I have never used it intentionally, but I accidentally used it often enough that I was glad to see it go. Unfortunately most of those accidental uses of it happen at work in IE.

Definitely uninstall the driver from EVGA, clear out all traces of it and install the latest driver from Nvidia. I haven't used a manufacturer's driver for a video card in probably 15 years.

I was at 15 hours and they denied my refund, as expected. I'll shelve it for a year and hope they deliver on future updates. As of right now it's just Space Mining and Inventory Management Simulator 2016 and not that interesting.

A good payoff after enduring all those episodes of Subaru being an idiot. Hopefully this keeps up to the end.

Obligatory:

Denamian - (Steam: Denamian, B.net: Denamian#1847) Also Denamian on PSN and XBL, but I haven't used either in years.

I can no longer be bothered to hate on Apple anymore, but if the best way to just buy what you want at a retail store is to order it online as an in store pickup, that pretty fucked up.

Got called in to work early with just hours notice for the 2nd day in a row because perpetually sick/mental case girl can't complete a fucking shift even if she does show up.

I hope so. We need some damn competition. I'm 6 hours in to a TWC outage with no ETA for restoration. I would jump ship in a heartbeat if the next best option wasn't shitty Verizon DSL.

My boss walked in to the office 30 minutes ago accompanied by such a thick cloud of cologne that I can fucking taste it.

Got an email from Hulu yesterday, it seems they are moving to subscription only on the 23rd.

I never got to play the old Gameboy Metroid , so I will have to check this out as I love the old style Metroid games. The one thing that would get me to consider buying a Nintendo console would be a proper Metroid game along the lines of Super Metroid.

I used to think that the packard bell I put a voodoo 2 in was hot shit back in the day. Unfortunately that was only true in the literal sense.

This is just to say that I've caught up and totally not another post to farm likes.

UBW was good, but Zero was better in my opinion. Iskander is the King of Bros.

Yes and no in my experience. Typing on a mechanical keyboard with the right switches feels a lot nicer, which can result in faster and easier typing. Different switches have different actuation forces and adding different size o-rings changes the distance to bottom them out and makes it quieter...
