Thanks, will give it a shot.

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=413512 I really like this trade. I haven't seen Fistric play too much in all honesty, but I know when he played against the Oilers he hurt a couple guys with huge hits. Not sure how good he is otherwise, but we really do need a physical presence on the back end...

Explain.

This. He also tested positive for cortisone in competition. His excuse was that they forgot to submit his prescription for saddle sores as he should have. The real story was that he never had saddle sores and that they came up with it as an excuse after he tested positive, and that he should...

I don't even really know what Plex is. Will the QNAP run that? I don't want to have to leave my desktop or HTPC on, I want to feed/stream media directly from the Qnap to the Nexus. I've downloaded MX Player since the built in player wouldn't play any of my media, and it seems to work alright...

So if I have a Qnap TS-439 on my home network, what's the best/easiest/simplest way to access media stored on it through my Nexus 10? Mostly concerned about TV shows and movies I downloaded through torrents.

What part of "they couldn't even test for EPO for half of his Tour wins" is so fucking difficult to comprehend?

Go on...

Livestrong did provide some funding for research, but that stopped in 2005 as Famm's article said. They also continue to help people cope with cancer and have various support programs for it, but again that article indicates that the majority of it is farmed out to other organizations. For the...

I really like how the shots look. Normally not a fan of depth of field bullshit, but it works great here.

Yeah, that's part of my problem. Generally even when getting obliterated I don't get all that hungover, because when I do it's off Jack and waters and/or shots of jack. I might start the night out with beers, but after a point I just can't drink them anymore, so on to Jack it is. And I'm pretty...

I'm really enjoying mine, but I don't really have a point of reference as my previous phone was a Torch. Any halfway decent smartphone is amazing compared to that buggy, slow piece of shit. As mentioned a bit earlier, only concern so far is battery life.

Canada has a far larger proportion of foreign born citizens (20% vs 10%), a higher immigration rate, and a more urbanized population. You're wrong on pretty much every count, with the caveat that the US does have a larger "visible" minority population in blacks and latinos, but the vast majority...

Good to hear, keep it up. Out of curiosity, how heavy of a drinker were you before? I've considered giving up booze for a few months before. I'm not a constant drinker, I'm perfectly able to have a beer with dinner and that's it. But once or twice a month I'll have a pretty good binge of...

He said clips! Get him! Again, that's not true, and I posted sources saying as such. The US has far higher rates of murder, assault, and robbery than Canada. Canada has moderately higher property crime. But please, continue trolling.

My Qnap, which must be close to 4 years old now, can send files at around 70MB/sec, with just some run of the mill WD Green drives in RAID5 (mix of them actually, I think there's a couple Seagates as well). That's damn near saturating the network. Never had an issue with the array dropping...

I wasn't intending that to be an argument for stricter gun control in the US. I realize that Wombat is arguing for that, but I'm not. It's pretty much a lost cause in the US at this point, and culturally it's just not possible nor likely to change any time soon.

You have to understand though, that outside of the US, very few people consider permissive gun ownership an "essential liberty". People outside the US can't understand how/why Americans are so enamored with their gun rights, and people in the US can't understand how other nations aren't up in...

Do you normally eat rib eye cuts? Rib eye is far and away the best steak cut if you don't mind some fat/gristle.

Yeah, except it's not.

What part of ""violent crime" is typically pretty tough to compare from one country to the next as the definition is often not the same" is so hard to comprehend? The most obvious and easily compared one is murder. The US murder rate is triple that of Canada's. Congratulations! Otherwise it's...

If we're talking murder, it's about a quarter of the rate in the US. Otherwise, "violent crime" is typically pretty tough to compare from one country to the next as the definition is often not the same.

Fair enough. My only concern is that someone else is negotiating the next CBA for both sides.

That's what it comes down to really. I don't think he's a bad GM by any means. Some of the moves he made in Toronto were highly suspect, especially the Kessel trade, but others were pretty good (Phaneuf). The problem is that he hasn't earned the right to be a complete cunt to everyone who...

They pretty much invented low cost index funds, and still generally have the lowest MER's. That's the reason they get mentioned so often.

Bought a bunch of Icebreaker merino wool insulating layers for skiing. Shit is unbelievable, seriously. I have huge problems with sweat management, and this stuff does an amazing job of wicking away moisture while keeping you warm. On top of that, it doesn't smell. Compared to my older synthetic...

I would imagine about 95% of people who follow hockey are smiling about Burke's firing. What an arrogant fuckwad. The only thing he ever won, the Cup in Anaheim, was with a team built by his predecessor. He did an alright job building Vancouver before he left, but they'll likely not win the cup...

http://www.edmontonjournal.com/sport...=Google+Reader Pussy is going for the most sympathetic interview he can find.

I'm not turning on him. I thought his stories were fucked up before, and they're fucked up now. Dude has some serious issues. But that's just my opinion.

The ghost poop is by far the best poop. Not only is there no evidence of it on your bunghole, but it also mysteriously disappeared down the toilet, as your anus was somehow able to aim it at the perfect angle to go through the s-trap with it's own momentum.

I'm being quite serious here, and not trying to be a dick. But have you considered seeking some sort of counseling or psychological help? You quite honestly seem to have some serious issues that you should be talking to someone about.

I just run a QNAP 439 Pro (whatever the exact model number is), and backup the most important stuff from that on to a 2tb drive in my desktop PC. I don't bother backing up movies and porn. I really recommend going with a pre-built NAS, they're pretty awesome.

I said "move on", not fire. You'd think even Bettman could recognize that pretty much everyone is sick of his shit, and it would be better for everyone if he retired or resigned. It doesn't even have to be immediate, but when his contract runs out.

On what justification though? Eris is the same size as Pluto and likely significantly heavier. It does orbit out much further, and has a more inclined and eccentric orbit. Haumea and Makemake are smaller than Pluto, but orbit about the same distance and have less eccentric orbits (albeit with...

^possibly I guess, but they don't seem too outlandish given that many people here have professional or IT backgrounds. Have you ever considered the possibility of a) not fucking whores and b) not being complete and utter gutter trash? What the fuck man?

20 timbits and an extra large triple triple.

At the end of the day, Michael Brown made a pretty good point: there's no official definition of what a continent is either. Would people freak out if Greenland was upgraded or those filthy Aussies get knocked down a peg? Probably. With astronomical objects as we discover more and more about our...

Christ you guys like to exaggerate what I make! My business just finished up it's 3rd year of minimal profitability, and we still have bonuses/dividends left from 2009 to pay out due to cash flow issues caused by projects going sideways and lack of payment on a few things. I've been making...

Actually, it was extremely contentious even within the IAU. And the definition they came up with was quite honestly fairly retarded, as it only applies in our solar system. They tried to please everyone and ended up just pissing everyone off. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IAU_definition_of_planet

Some (slurpee) Indian women can be absolutely gorgeous, no doubt. Perhaps some of the most gorgeous on the planet. Most aren't though. That was Rangoth's deal. Technically my Christmas present to her was somewhat of a Package, as I went with several smaller gifts together instead of one big one...
