    Buying a car?

    Yeah for sure, no disagreement there. Regardless though, it's ridiculous to not have a bigger tank in the Tundra. Everyone I know who has one bitches about it.

    I don't know why anyone would make the distinction in the first place. Maxis is wholly owned by EA, are they not?

    He certainly did. Only caught the first period, which we dominated. Apparently we dominated the second as well. I only saw a blurry, regular speed replay of the own goal so I can't really say too much about it, but that shit happens. His timing could be better, that's for sure. As far as the OT...

    Buying a car?

    I dunno, maybe the fuel gauge was extremely conservative on my dad's, but when I used it to haul a trailer with 3 bikes in it (so maybe 4,000lbs) down to Montana, I couldn't get more than about 280 km or 175 miles out of a tank, and sometimes less if it was really hilly (it would constantly drop...

    Look around on Anandtech. I think it was possible initially for us Canucks to get it working because it worked on the bands that our providers have 4G on, but not in the US. And with an Android update later on they disabled it entirely. Something like that. I just did a Speedtest on mine, and it...

    Yeah, I wouldn't want a physical home button either. I've grown so used to not having one on my Nexus 4 that when I use my Touch I find it fairly infuriating to hit the home button (which is also starting to shit out). microSD card slot and removable battery are two features that would be very...

    Anchorman: The Legend Continues

    Hi, I'm Cal Naughton! And I'm Ricky Bobby! Urging you, never travel to Tijuana. Really though, I thought Talladega Nights was a pretty good movie. Extremely stupid, but it didn't try to hide it. And much like Anchorman, it gets funnier if you watch it a few times. For example, I didn't...

    I don't really give a shit which team ends up where personally. However I think it's idiotic that 14 teams have a better chance of making the playoffs than the other 16. It's just flat out retarded that they didn't come up with a way to ameliorate that issue. And my team benefits from the...

    Buying a car?

    Yeah, the size of the gas tank in the Tundra is a huge problem. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking. Like using your 5.7 liter V8, full size truck to tow? Congrats, you get to fill up with gas every 2 hours or 150 miles, whichever comes sooner. Too bad, otherwise it seems like a really...

    Not sure that I'd want to go much bigger than the Nexus 4 @ 4.7". With a couple pairs of my jeans that have shorter pockets it's damn near sticking out the top. But I guess 5" wouldn't make too much of a difference.

    *shrug* Booing former players is pretty common in hockey. I don't know why some people get so offended by it. Wayne Gretzky's first game back in Edmonton after he was traded to LA he got a standing ovation in the player introductions, and then mercilessly booed every time he touched the puck...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    That's entirely up to the the couple to decide. Whatever floats their boat. It's becoming more and more common for women to have a higher education and earning power than their spouses. I would think though that even in those cases, most of the time the woman wouldn't have nearly as much to...

    Speaking of battery life, all of the sudden my Nexus 4's battery life has seemingly doubled for no reason that I can find. No it's not from the last Android update, it was still pretty mediocre immediately after. But since last week I've noticed that if it's fully charged at 6am when I unplug it...

    It was pretty known, at least 5-10 years ago, that a significant proportion of NHL players were taking a lot of ephedrine before games. I believe they cracked down on it, but I'm not really sure.

    Like I said, we have your number for whatever reason over the past few years. That roster is on pace to finish at or near the bottom of the conference and league for the fifth year in a row. It's cause our d-men have been mediocre with Smid and Petry taking steps back, Whitney playing fucking...

    Depends on when someone was born. I think for boomers it might be a bit shorter, for X'rs it's around 5'9"-10" or so in North America. It's gradually going up due to better nutrition and possibly selective pressures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_h...ound_the_world

    Scott Howson is scouting for the Oilers for the rest of the season. Old boys club strikes again. I almost hope we finish near the bottom this league, not so that we can draft high again, but so that the entire fucking city will storm Katz's house demanding the entire management of the...

    I'm trying to find the one in Canada from a couple months ago that was similar, but all I'm turning up is this recent one. Regardless, like I said, any contractual agreement can be litigated.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    No precedent has been set with that case, near as I can tell. Prenups get thrown out all the time for similar reasons. As do many other contractual agreements, for a whole variety of reasons. That's because in the past, women did need those protections. And in some cases, they still do. lindz's...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    My thought is, if you're getting married, don't be a dick and coerce your wife in to signing a pre-nup 4 fucking days before the wedding. That kind of shit should have been talked about and finalized long before. No shit that's coercive to bust that out 96 hours before the wedding. There was...

    Blenders for smoothies

    Yeah, I just wanted some opinions on whether or not a run of the mill blender would be decent for smoothies or not, given that I'd been told I HAD to buy a $500 dollar one. Coincidentally, I noticed that Booster Juice uses VitaMix blenders.

    Never found too many issues with SLI when my main gaming CPU had it for a few years. A couple little niggles here and there, but overall nothing major. As far as said issues go, they're the same whether you have to separate cards or a dual GPU single card. They function virtually the same in...

    North Korea goes full retard

    I don't really have a dog in the fight, but using hodj's link above, the Great Leap Forward resulted in approximately 5% of China's population starving if you assume it was 30 million people. During the Arduous March famine in North Korea it looks like it was in the 5-10% range as well...
