Damn, that thing looks tempting as fuck.

What the fuck does that have to do with what I said? I'm not disputing whether or not the car was hacked. That's certainly possible, I suppose. You and other people when it was talked about a week or two back (specifically Araysar, who was most likely trolling) have latched on to the fact that...

That sucks that people you know have been ripped off. On the other hand, my parents have had a house in Playa Del Carmen for 6 years, as well as a couple of my uncles/aunts, my god parents, and several other family friends. All told there's about 10 families that own a house down there, and...

Yeah, Canada. We've been around since 1958, and at least in the last 3 years haven't had any complaints filed against us, so I guess that's why we're A+. We don't really deal with the public a whole lot, so that's why a) I don't care if someone reports us and b) why we don't get reported in the...

heh, I love it when people threaten to report me to the BBB. I just laugh at them. Although I checked out of curiosity, and apparently we have an A+ rating. Odd, since we've never joined. They do seem to know how long we've been around, and even what kind of work we do, which is somewhat...

So again, maybe the cause of the crash is suspicious. But if you hit a tree at 100mph and the engine and tranny of your car goes flying out the front, it stands to reason that the fuel tank is probably going to rupture as well.

The cause of the crash itself might be suspicious, but the car catching fire isn't. The fucking engine block was a hundred feet down the road, you idiot. No shit the fuel tank ruptured.

Pretty much this. I have a QNAP box, it works great, took next to no setup, and I barely use half of the features on it.

It's not a room by itself, it's just my living room. I live in a large open concept loft. My primary seating position is roughly 13 feet from the screen to my eyeballs. For most PC games I play at 720p because I find the UI/text elements too small to read at 1080p. I generally leave the desktop...

I don't really see that being the case. Many low paying jobs don't really benefit from hiring "more qualified" people. Someone better educated isn't going to be able to flip burgers any faster than a hard working highschool dropout. I would think though that raising minimum wages could lead to...

Yup, sounds about right. Most games won't ever get up to that kind of a load, more like 60-70% of whatever it hits with the two programs running. Be careful with Furmark, it can definitely fry a GPU if you don't have good enough cooling.

Chick next door when I was 15 or something. There was some sort of block party going on, and a few of the families in the neighborhood were over at my house. We'd made out once or twice before. She asked to "see my room" so downstairs we went. Came back upstairs 15 minutes later and her dad made...

Fixed.

Not sure if this was posted here or elsewhere, but it's a mildly amusing read:http://www.cavemag.com/my-year-as-a-...ticket-holder/

Just use Prime95 and Furmark to max everything out.

PS3 controllers and most RF or BT PC peripherals should be fine. I've never had any issues with PS3 controllers or Logitech "Unified" RF devices, they're good for 30-60 feet. The older RF stuff was only good for 3-6 feet, but both Microsoft and Logitech peripherals with the mini receivers are...

Of fucking course.

I dunno, he may well have been thinking he had some serious player/game shit going on, and that she was going to jump on his dick any minute. Hell, if he'd dialed things back a bit, that might well have been the case.

Do tell why we won't be hauling "them" in. Be specific about which objects you're talking about, and the physics and orbital mechanics that precludes them being "hauled". What the fuck are you even talking about? Even amongst near earth asteroids, there's thousands upon thousands of them of...

I don't think that resource production in space is going to be done by humans. It's going to be automated to the max. Maybe some humans will need to be present to do repairs here and there, but that's it. I don't see the very real limitations of living in space precluding the development of...

Again, I'm not interested in getting in to the gun control debate. You're an asshole for posting a graph you knew to be bullshit.

Ah, shit, forgot to provide the link. I had it up in another tab and everything! http://www.civitas.org.uk/crime/crim...ecdjan2012.pdf For a debunking of that graph you posted:http://blog.skepticallibertarian.com...t-than-the-us/ Again, I'm not getting in to the gun control debate. I'm...

Yeah, she might have to go a couple years older depending on her budget. I guess what I was wondering is that for cars in the 2006-2008 model years, is it even worth looking at domestics or Korean cars? I thought back then the only manufacturers making halfway decent cars were the Japanese, with...

Well, as far as your first request goes, we can start with murder being approximately four times higher in the US. Rape also appears to be higher, but there's not a big gap. Robbery is about the same, but the positions are reversed. Assaults are pretty much impossible to compare given the hugely...

I'm not saying that the UK doesn't have crime. However the "statistics" in that image Hodj posted are bullshit. As Hodj himself said, criminologists have great difficulty in comparing violent crime from one country to another, because there's huge differences in what the definition of "violent"...

Girlfriend's car got "stolen" a couple weeks back, and by "stolen" I mean "parked in a back alley downtown with the passenger door unlocked and a spare key in the glove box". That aside, her car hasn't yet turned up, so she's expecting her insurance company to pay her out in a week or two. She...

Yes, it's ceiling mounted. I'm on the top floor of the building, so yes, the ceiling itself will move up and down slightly during heavy winds, causing the picture to sway a bit. There is no "dropped" drywall ceiling or bulkheads in my condo, it's an open timber former warehouse, so the projector...

I don't know if I feel that positive about it, but yeah, I thought 10,000 Days was pretty solid from start to finish. Better than Lateralus, but behind their other releases. Rosetta Stoned is awesome on a number of levels. Every time I hear it now I have a huge smile on my face, because I find...

Glad to hear it was enough of a success for Netflix to go ahead with another season. I still have to watch the last 2-3 episodes of Season 4, but overall I personally found it to be somewhat disappointing. There's some very good moments still, but if you watch a Season 4 episode right after you...

So, I'm doing this tomorrow:http://www.24hoursofadrenalin.com/ca...ls/course-map/ A friend asked me if I wanted to join his 5 man team a few months back, and I agreed with the intent of getting out on my bike lots and being in decent shape for it. The reality is, of course, that I only got...

Freudian slip Tucbro? Or do we need to have a talk? I dunno bro, seems like you worry plenty.

Dude, are you getting all stalky again?

The regular season generally starts around the second weekend of October, so probably around October 9/10 or so. Barring any games in Europe or elsewhere that might be a couple days early.

Fair enough, I don't disagree that wealth is even more skewed than income. However most of the discussion about "the 1%" was specifically about income, and not necessarily wealth, because income relates more to taxation and that was what the debate was really about. And I was also specifically...

heh, sorry to hear he fooled you. Word is he's going to SKA St. Petersburgh, which is owned by a friend of his, whose dad is one of the main oligarchs in Russia. He's supposedly going to be paid 15-20m a year. err, not owned by a friend, the friend is head of marketing or some...

Dammit! In my defense, that retard probably doesn't even want to be in Canada any more. You're a fucking Quebec Nationalist, aren't you Tanoomba? Let's listen to him justify why it's okay for Alberta to subsidize the living shit out of his lazy, arrogant, unappreciative province.

This shit is just plain retarded. Are all doctors evil? What about engineers? Small business owners? Shit, there's some tradespeople that are in the 1% up here in Alberta (because they make a ton of money here, and the cutoff for being in the 1% is lower in Canada). You're making completely...

That's what he was saying, yes. And he's wrong. But so are you, because the next post after you made the idiotic comment that "500k doesn't make you that wealthy depending where you live" you dug quite a bit deeper: Your brother is very wealthy, regardless of where he lives. Maybe he doesn't...
