    No I haven't, never even heard of Vault, but after reading that article it looks like exactly what I need. I'll try it tonight, thanks!

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    I won't argue about TDK, because I think it is slightly better as well, but I'd rather re-watch Spider-Man 2 than TDK any day.

    X-Men: Days of Future Past.

    Hopefully Colossus gets more than just a bit part in this one. I've been waiting to see Colossus mop the floor with people since the first X-Men movie.

    Windows 8

    No, just one mapped drive period right now. On my old computer (Windows 7) I had several different ones that worked fine from day one, but with this one I've only got one, and it won't remember no matter what I do.

    Snowpiercer

    I was able to suspend my disbelief about the train, but I just didn't like the whole look and feel of the movie. The person that said Bioshock mixed with Brazil probably hit that on the head, since I hated Brazil. That's probably why I didn't enjoy this movie at all. I got where they were...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    Did you ask if he had any idea if they are going to pick up Almost Human for next season?

    Forgot to get back to you on this, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I still have to type in the username and password for my mapped network drive every time I restart my computer. So frustrating.

    Minor car accident - now with ambulance chasing law firm

    Not to mention, just because something is discoverable in a lawsuit doesn't mean it should be volunteered. It gives the lawyer additional information that they shouldn't necessarily have when making their demands. I realize this is common sense (which apparently has no place in the legal...

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    Personally I agree with Tarrant, but it is also one of those "at the time" things that can't be replicated now. Just like movies I enjoyed in the 80s were awesome, but not so awesome when I re-watch them now. At the time, Toby and the first two Spider-Man movies (and X-Men) helped put...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah, but a "Secret Wars/Infinity Gauntlet" type movie with all of them, preceded by several individual movies of their own, of course, could easily make a billion or more each like Avengers did. It would be worth it if the cost were anywhere near 1-2 billion I'd say. However, I think they'd...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    She was in Fringe? I don't remember it, unless you're just confusing redheads. She was on Eureka for the last season or two, and started ok but got boring fast. She's also popped up in Supernatural several times, which is a couple too many. I cringe every time they do the "THEN" bit at the...

    Arrow

    I'm not really a fan of Sarah's pouty face, but I wouldn't ever say no to that body. That bitch squats, you know it! Laurel needs to take some tips from her. It was nice to see John Crichton for a change too. I almost didn't recognize him at first.

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    Hey, I agree with you Grimm! I wanted to punch this guy in the mouth most of the time, whereas Toby conveyed a lot more of the insecure yet finding his own strength nerd that I feel was an integral part of Spider-Man's origin. I still feel that Electro looks more like Mr. Freeze (and I've...

    The 100

    I watch some terrible shit, and am no stranger to CW programming, but I was tired of the stupidity and teen angst halfway through. It didn't help any that the douchebag with the knife is the fucking douchebag from Continuum, who absolutely makes me rage. If I could kill that guy's character in...

    Arrow

    I've never been much of a DC fan, let alone a Batman one, so I definitely never cared much about Harley Quinn (didn't even like her much in Birds of Prey). I get that she's nuttier than a fruitcake, but that voice sounded way too "insane little girl" for my tastes. I'm confident they'll do a...

    Disney's "Frozen"

    I liked the movie a lot, despite noticing several of those issues. I'd watch it again if it happened to be on, I'm sure.

    I'm all for VPNs, but that has been going on for years. Amateur Allure was big into it several years ago, and pretty much it boiled down to a bullying scheme. Send someone a letter saying you are going to sue them, and offer them a settlement for a few thousand dollars. Every one that pays is...

    Brooklyn Nine-Nine

    I haven't watched many new half-hour comedies in years, but this is one of my current favorites. Glad to see it was renewed. Hitchcock and Scully were awesome this week. As was the Captain.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I was excited to see all of the things they've accomplished and the teasers of what they have planned in this episode. I haven't loved every single movie, but as a whole I'm absolutely thrilled by what they've accomplished, and what they hope to accomplish in the future. Sure, this was pretty...

    Archer

    I liked Cheryl a lot in the previous seasons, and even in the first episode or two of this one, but she's even worse than Pam this season. If I hear "Outlaw Country!" one more time my jimmies will be severely rustled. The show really needs to stick to focusing on Archer, and let everyone...

    King of the Nerds

    I'm disappointed that Jack didn't win too, but mainly because I didn't like Kayla at all. We get it, your parents wanted a boy. I really don't know who I wanted to win from all 11, maybe Geordi LaForge, but I have to think it would have been hilarious if Xander won. He'd have been glorious...

    Nah, but the main reasons someone goes through this much effort for a chick is if you want to bang her, she's a relative, or a friend of your significant other that she "suggested" you help. I'm sure there are others, but those are the main ones I can think of. If pirating skills equaled...

    Torrents

    Well, the obvious questions now are, is she hot, and are you banging, or attempting to bang, her? You don't have to answer that, but you know we're all thinking it! If the answer is no, however, you could always just say, "You're right. Enjoy waiting for movies and shows to come out on...

    Torrents

    Yeah, that's exactly right, Plex is downgrading them before even sending, so it doesn't matter what you have downloaded, you should be more than fine. That's also the same router I have, and unless you changed something (I didn't), it should be just fine. Your speed is fine, your processor is...

    Torrents

    Yeah, holy shit, 30-50 up is far and away more than enough for just about any quality you want to send. And that processor is plenty as well. It is entirely on her end, unless you're leaving something out, which I doubt you are. 320p should run flawlessly even over a fucking 3G phone I'd...

    Torrents

    What problems are you having precisely? And when are they happening? Typically it isn't the rip that is the problem, but the settings. Plex has settings for what resolution and bitrate you stream to other devices at, so changing those settings should fix the majority of problems, regardless...

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    XBMC does not have a working Netflix app anymore, that I'm aware of. However, since it is a PC, you can just open it in a browser. Slightly less convenient I realize, but that's what I do for now, and you'd be doing it to watch MMA-TV anyway I imagine (I don't use it, but assuming it is...

    Windows 8

    Tagging isn't going to do much when like a terabyte of my data is going to be tagged "unknown name, hot, tits, pussy" etc. How will I ever find my favorites?! Serious question that is annoying me with Win 8.1. I built my new computer a couple of weeks ago, and at first it was fine, but now...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Looks alone Sif is hotter (to me), but I didn't think Lorelei was ugly by any stretch of the imagination. As Astro said, if she wanted me, she could have me.

    The Veronica Mars Movie Project

    It annoys me that my digital download version for backing them on Kickstarter was a fucking Flixster/Ultraviolet copy, so of course I still pirated the thing to watch (not a theater closer than San Francisco I believe, and fuck going all that way to see a movie amidst a sea of middle-aged...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    Purchased, even though I've already read it! I'll put a review up tomorrow, but for the forums here, this was absolutely my favorite of the series so far. I'm not just saying that as a fanboy either. I loved Boomworm (FM3), and at the time it was my favorite, but this one was even better, and...

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    If the Roku is like the Boxee, it will transcode pretty much everything you throw at it, except perhaps full bluray rips, but if you're into those you wouldn't be worried about our solutions anyway. Again, never used a Roku but it *should* work just fine. Unless you are trying to stream 1080p...

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    The number of NAS that can run Plex media server all by itself is pretty low right now, and pretty expensive. It definitely can be done, and that would be your most convenient solution, but if cost is an issue you need to do some checking to see what is available. There was a site linked...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Their sister/aunt actually drinks ionized water already, and swears by it. Of course, she's too fucking poor to actually buy it so she mooches from her minister because he feels sorry for her. Funny thing is, they both think she is the nutty one.

    Two jimmy rustlers really getting to me today at work. First, the people that still don't get even the tiniest part of technology. We have a program that we do a lot of our work in. For sending things out to contractors, we use that program to print a report in PDF format and send it via...

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    Honestly, it sounds like you need a HTPC since you have multiple web-based options. You can go a couple of different ways with it, but they will all be more costly than just doing something like buying another Roku. I definitely think you need to consider the HTPC avenue though, because I...
