    I guess it's about time to celebrate his life again...

    Mad Men

    The last episode was pretty good, but outside of this one, I haven't had much interest in Season 6. It seems to have lost something special that held me for seasons 1-5. I'm not quite ready to give up on the show just yet, but it definitely seems like something is missing.

    That really sucks. Gandolfini was the man.

    He's just a little bit more like Kenshin now, who also had dual swords of varying lengths.

    That's wrong. I've purchased more than a few region free blu-rays from Amazon UK, and my wife always buys shit from Amazon JP. They'll ship to you and usually at a great price. You can often find region free box sets on Amazon UK that's cheaper than Amazon US even AFTER you add in shipping.

    It's actually impossible for them to remove Kinect requirement. The Xbox One doesn't have a physical on/off button. You HAVE to speak to it for it to turn on. So, if nothing else, you're still stuck with Kinect for that reason.

    EQ Classic? Not really.

    The test server is still active, however, there currently isn't anything new to test out. We've pretty much tested what's currently available as much as it can possibly be tested. Now we're in limbo, waiting for the next bit of content. YL is allowing players to create things, but he has to...

    I won't believe it until I see it. They seemed way too bull headed about their online policy thing.

    We use Huggies for Natsumi, and they work great. They don't "feel" plastic at all, and they have a lot of absorption. We tend to use the Huggie's Little Movers Slip-On. They're like shorts, in that you have to pull them up from your kid's feet. They seem to be comfortable for my daughter...

    The same day delivery thing is why UPS began charging tax in the first place. Various government groups (New York specifically), were annoyed that Amazon came in at such a better price AND they didn't require sales tax. So they threw a fit and were going to ban Amazon from delivering to NY...

    The LEGO Movie

    This actually looks cute. If my daughter were older, I could see her absolutely wanting to see this. I was able to make out Morgan Freeman's voice (the old dude), but that's about it.

    It would be awesome if they offered local pickups. Then you could do same day. Not me, though. Closest distro is a state away. A small state (Delaware), but a state none the less.

    I bought a $1700 TV from Amazon in '06. The thing was totally tits. They had a standard box truck deliver it (instead of UPS), and 2 guys to unload it and bring it into my house. I was even able to quickly set it up and make sure it worked before they left. If it was DoA, I would have boxed...

    I'm in Pennsylvania, and began seeing Tax on my Amazon orders June/July of '12. It sucks, but it happens. They only tax you for items they sell directly, though. If you use a non-amazon vendor, even if it's fulfilled and shipped by amazon, you aren't charged any tax.

    Yeah, and they would intentionally limit the availability, just to drive desire. Microsoft and Sony are trying to add more and more consoles to be sold at launch day, but Apple would limit it to like 5-10 consoles per store. That would cause the people that want it to get into a frothy rage...

    NYC Early Week Night Life

    Cake has been getting a lot of attention lately. It's a Wednesday night thin at the Pink Elephant. 40 West 8th St. This guy, Whoo Kid, usually DJ's for it. He's also the DJ for 50 Cent and some other rappers. Supposed to be a great time with tons of "bitches with moisture".

    Kids really are just little monsters that you care for. They run around destroying every physical thing that you love and think nothing of it. Monsters. That said, my daughter is really awesome when she isn't in a bitchy sleepy mood. Sometimes she just gets really angry for no real reason...

    Until a product is officially on sale, companies can and will continue to change it to increase their profit margin. That may include putting a different battery than previously tested in the controller. I tend to believe it's a correct Q&A for the twitter response team.

    When the 2nd wave of Testers came in, the majority of bugs had been fixed already. They weren't posting because you can't really report when bugs don't happen, and everything appeared to be working as normal. People stopped logging in because there wasn't much point. You would hit level 60...

    Bert Kreischer is a pretty funny comedian. He's on the Joe Rogan podcast a fair amount, and has his own Podcast as well. He's also on the Travel Channel. He hosts a few shows (Trip Flip, Hurt Bert, ect.) and has somehow been a guest on almost every other show they have. Anyway, he's going...

    It isn't Vaporware because a lot of us have actually PLAYED it. It is in beta (well, Alpha really), but it's progress is on hold for the rest of the year. Yeahlight, the lead developer, is having his RL company bought out by another corporation, so there's a lot of legal bullshit and auditing...

    I vote republican, but fuck Xbox. I'm having a war of my own against an Xbro on another forum who insists that "all of his friends are getting it, so he will also. Besides, the PS4 sucks. They'll never have cool games like the Kinect can give you." It baffles me.

    A lot of Xbox fans only continue to purchase the system due to Halo being exclusive to Xbox. And I'm sure with the release of "The Last of Us", plenty of people that don't have one already will purchase a discounted PS3. This game is being heralded as "the best game of this consoles...
