    Fuck this:CBC News - Local Weather - Edmonton, Alberta Actual overnight temperature is -31C or -24F. With windchill it's around -40C or -40F. Kind of hurts to breathe outside right now. On the plus side, it's too cold to snow!

    So why in the fuck can't the Oilers play like they did last night more often? Taylor Hall was a fucking beast.

    Thank god, now everyone can forget about Paul Walker. Poor Mandela, though, they should have let him die years ago.

    Hobbies thread (With pics!)

    Mine's been packed up at the parent's place since I was 16 or so. Shit was too expensive, had to give it up as a hobby. I had a fairly neat track setup, but not much for terrain, buildings and the like. When I retire it's probably something I'll get back in to, shit is fun as hell.

    In all fairness to Florida, the Senators have one of the smallest fan bases in the league, even for a Canadian team. Being a government/bureaucrat town, the majority of people who live there weren't born there, and they bring their hockey allegiances with them from wherever they were born...

    NHL 2013 - 2014 Season Thread

    Keep in mind that Rask is 26, Lundqvist is 31. Goalies fall of extremely rapidly after 34/35ish if their name isn't Roy, Belfour or Hasek. Then again, the cap is going to be increasing rapidly again, so maybe it won't look so bad in a few years.

    Anyone have Google Map coordinates on where the crash happened? Curious to see what the road looks like. Yeah, that shit is stupid. Just because Porsche paid out the 350k doesn't mean the car is inherently unsafe. It means Porsche didn't want to spend money defending itself, and 350k isn't all...

    I skimmed it. Seriously, who the fuck sends that shit to every girl on another man's friend list? I'd have to strongly consider murder. What a cunt. That's not just bro code. That's completely and totally fucked up. It would be one thing if he just sent it to the chick that they were talking...

    RIP Paul Walker

    You forgot titanium, magnesium, carbon fiber, steel, aluminum and so on. While the body of the car is lightweight, the frame and mechanical aspects of it are incredibly strong, otherwise it would be a shitty car. Yet the thing was clearly wrapped around the tree, the frame obviously completely...

    That seems like too much term and money for a goalie who might only have another 2-3 really excellent years left in him, but he's so damn handsome I just can't hold it against him.

    Yeah, I've always felt that a 27" 1080p (or 1920 x 1200) is the sweet spot. My desk and monitor setup results in me sitting fairly far away from my monitor though, so the worse pixel density wouldn't be an issue.

    It's a difficult car to drive,when you're driving it fast and pushing it to it's limits.If you are driving it at legal or near legal speeds, it's not going to suddenly go sideways on you. While I haven't driven the Carrera GT (and I think my dad is selling it, sadly), I did take his GT2 out for...

    The Beer Thread

    I never really set out to like hoppy beers either. A friend of mine pushed them on me a few times, and I found myself liking them more and more. Now when I'm at a brew pub that has them, I definitely go for the extremely hoppy, strong beers that most of my friends think is terrible. On the other...

    Ah, fair enough. I thought you were saying that the car itself, even when mechanically sound, is dangerous or difficult to drive. I mean, in a lot of people's hands it is, but the same can be said of any car that has a 0-60 time of less than 6 seconds. And even professional drivers can fuck up...

    The Butterface Thread

    Actually, I would give the butterface label to Amy Reid for sure. Her body is infuckingcredible, while her face is this skrunched up mess. Even with phenomenal makeup they aren't able to make her face look half as good as 90% of other porn stars. It's a shame really.

    RIP Paul Walker

    Yeah, I don't think that's been established at all. There are plenty of mid/rear engined cars with similar power and weight characteristics on the road, like the Audi R8, Ferrari F360/430/458, every other Porsche and Lotus on the road, and so on. The only reason you might consider the car...

    RIP Paul Walker

    Regardless of whether there was a mechanical failure in the steering, it seems apparent that the vehicle was traveling at a speed well in excess of the legal limit. Even Carrera GT's don't just disintegrate if they hit a tree at 45mph. It'll be interesting to hear what the specifics of the...

    I want your margins. Gross we're about 18-20%, but after overhead we're netting about 10-12%. Volume this year is going to be almost triple what it was last year, but that's more a statement about how bad last year was. Overall I'd say we just had an average to good year in 2013, but that feels...

    Yeah, hence why I'm starting out with 8gb. I just figure that if this CPU and mobo last me as long as my Q9550 did (5 years), I might want to slap in some more ram a couple years down the road.

    Hail the master race - Steam hits 7 million concurrent users

    Pretty much this. It's pretty eye opening to look at the global achievement statistics for most Steam games.

    Similar question: if I buy a new mobo and RAM right now with 8gb (4x2), and I later add another 16gb (8x2) of similar if not identical ram, is there any concerns with performance, compatibility etc?
