    Looking to learn HTML formatting

    Emmet does look pretty sweet. If you have a PC you really can't go wrong with Visual Studio. Express edition is free and it has Intellisense for HTML and Javascript.

    The Animated GIF Thread

    Yeah, I don't get why they feel they have to have huge breasts. Some guys prefer them small. Not to mention a lot of boob jobs aren't done that well. Case in point:

    THE Drunk Thread

    I don't drink or get high. Can it be the "Drunk or High or Straight-Edge Thread"?

    Buying a car?

    I've owned a 2004 WRX and a 2005 Legacy GT. The WRX's paint was terrible -- easily chipped. The Legacy was fantastic, though. Great car, kinda wish I had kept it. Subarus in general are very reliable. And if it snows in your region then you'll have no fear (well, within reason).

    Robocop - Remake

    Now, wait a minute. Robocop had the typical Paul Verhoeven humor (like the silly commercials), but I really don't feel it was cheeseball. What's your definition of "cheeseball" anyway? It was a great movie and I still enjoy watching it. The first one, anyway. Second was crap and never saw...

    WDTV/ Roku Streamers

    Speaking of WDTV, I have a WDTV-Live which is wireless. After a few days it gets INCREDIBLY SLOW. Like menu navigation gets all sluggish and playback takes a while to buffer in. I have to power it completely down and back up to fix this. It seems like the wireless signal has degraded and a...

    American Horror Story: Coven

    I suspect she's not really dead. But if she is, the writers are fucking stupid. Real bright having her turn her back to a serial killer while dumping his ass. This show has been flopping around like a fish.

    Too bad the buff MILFy blonde was killed. Although happened off-screen so maybe there's hope.

    AND you get to see Peggy's tits. Seriously, it's a good mini-series.

    Looking to learn HTML formatting

    I found this site Googling around: Scratchpad - Realtime HTML and CSS Editor Might be better out there, but this would serve the purpose I was looking for.

    Looking to learn HTML formatting

    Here's the thing, I'm not interested in drawing boxes and buttons on the screen like Photoshop. What I would like is an output window that will render the HTML as I type the code. It's annoying to constantly flip back and fourth between the editor and browser hitting refresh. Microsoft's...

    The return scored a 4.4. So apparently the public fucking loves Kevin Bacon.

    Bitten

    Speaking of which, and maybe this should have a thread of it's own, but I recently started watching MTV's Teen Wolf. I'm almost done with season 1 and, honestly, it's NOT that bad. It's nothing like the 80s movie, I have no idea why they even named it that because I'm sure a lot of people...

    Person of Interest

    So, they've made it known that the dude from Warehouse 13 was successful in creating his own version of the machine but apparently it was never brought online. But perhaps it IS and that is the system that Root is, unwittingly, communicating with. It would explain the differences in how it...

    Modern Family Season 4

    I stopped watching Modern Family beginning of last season. Just felt like the same gags over and over. Although Cam screaming like a girl never quite got old. Has Alex's tits got any bigger for this season? It became obvious they were trying to cover those puppies up.

    Bitten

    Attention all you werewolfs lovers out there: Canada's Space channel just started broadcasting "Bitten" starring Laura Vandervoort (aka Supergirl from Smallville). I've watched the first episode. Wasn't too bad. And, hey, get to see her ass so that's a bonus.

    Not really. Unless the finale is somehow amazing (which is in a couple of episodes). I pretty much wrote this season off as a loss.

    Investing

    Is anyone into ETFs here? Wondering if there are any potentially "hot" ones for 2014. I opened a Vanguard account nearly two years ago and have been pumping funds into their VTI (Total Stock Market ETF). Needless to say, 2013 was pretty good.

    Working for Amazon Web Services

    We had a software engineer return to us after being employed by Amazon for little over a year. He didn't go into any real details, but he seemed to imply they aren't very organized. And we are tiny little potatoes compared to Amazon, so I was surprised he'd give up a career with them.

    Looking to learn HTML formatting

    Up until this point I mostly wrote various Windows based tools for our support guys. They were written in C# and WPF. WPF, if you don't know, is Microsoft's system for rendering the Windows GUI (as opposed to the old WinForms crap). It's based on XAML which is HTML-like markup. Anyway, I use...

    By the way, Microsoft Expression Web is now a free product. It's comparable to Adobe's Dreamweaver. It has some nice formatting abilities, as well being a pretty nice HTML and CSS editor. Unfortunately development on the product has ceased so it's Intellisense feature doesn't recognize some...

    American Horror Story: Coven

    This season has been somewhat of a disappointment. Honestly, Nan and Misty are the only two characters I even remotely care about. So much for Nan -- poor girl needs a break. She's been killed off in both seasons.

    Saving Mr. Banks

    This movie left the impression that Travers was happy with the movie. But from reading the Wiki page on the subject, it appears she was still quite pissed. There were no further Mary Poppins movies, for example. Plus, I found it odd that the movie, at the end, portrayed a heart-felt...

    I signed up for Zoosk a while back and constantly get spammed every day with a new "match" (despite having entered zero information about myself). What's hilarious is that every match is with an extremely attractive woman. Makes me wonder if it's actually an escort site. Speaking of which...

    Streaming video from PC to TV

    A guy at work claims to stream 1080p video. I think he has a Wireless-N set up. I use a WDTV-Live to stream from my PC. It just uses a simple network share (can also connect to the PS3 media server software). I wouldn't really recommend the WDTV as I think it's a piece of junk and there...
