    Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Amazing!

    In all seriousness, this movie is probably the worst offender I have ever seen for bilking an end of film series into a 2 part movie split. Absofuckinglutely nothing happened of consequence whatsoever in this movie. It was literally two sides playing video propoganda at one another making...

    Just an Intel marketing hype blurb. Worst of all, it's old news. Samsung already beat them to the market with 3D V-NAND flash with the 850 Pro series SSDs. Intel playing catch-up on the SSD market is all.

    I have 3 days off every week too though. 12 x 4 = 48 hour work week and a bucket load of vacation days per year with a hefty salary. I can't honestly fathom going back to working 5 days a week!

    Two weeks per year? That is just crazy talk to me. Unlimited rollover means nothing with that accrual rate. I value my vacation time far more than pay at this point. I love to travel and see the world while I am relatively young. No pay would convince me otherwise.

    Not every defence contractor. I work General Dynamics IT and we are on 48 hour work weeks. It's whatever is written into the contract. Over 48, we get OT but there are others on site that are doing far more than that and never see OT. Different contracts, different hours / OT structure. I...

    Bicycling

    I bought this for my MTB trail light. It's expensive but it is the brightest light I have ever seen. I have been flashed by cars multiple times and others on the track / trail shield their eyes from it. On full power, the housing gets hot as fuck. You do not want to be stationary for long, it...

    Interstellar (2014)

    They also said they woke the daughter from cryosleep. Who knows how long that went on. Saw this last night. Amazing movie for me. The imax sound system was crazy and it felt as if the entire damn theater was the rocket ship and trembling / shaking. I had no idea how long the run time was for...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    Umm, not really. I was in NZ on a few sets back in March. The original movies were filmed on mostly private land (the entire Shire included). As to the Shire set specifically, it was filmed on a farmer's property specifically for the surrounding hills that obscured any views in onto what they...

    If you are powering it off and then it's losing the date / time, you should check your motherboard battery. Otherwise you should set it to automatically sync time / date from an internet time server.

    Shit happens on my work PC all the time. The computer is slow as balls. Sometimes you click the X to close an unwanted tab, nothing happens so you think you might have misclicked, so go to click again and in 0.1 seconds the old tab disappears and you close what you wanted to keep open...

    If I ever got a bug that nasty, I would honestly just reformat when you get the chance. It's ust not worth the risk of having leftover malware floating around on your system.

    Survivor

    No doubt, they are treating her like shit. My point was more along the lines of, she really doesn't need a million bucks so there is little incentive to try and work some survivor magic and change her situation. The best (most entertaining) players in Survivor will do whatever it takes to...

    Unplug everything that is not necessary. Keyboard, mouse, monitor, video card, all but 1 ram stick, etc. Basically MB, CPU, and a stick of ram and see if the thing stays powered on or cuts again. If it stays on, start adding 1 device back at a time. You can possibly eliminate a few points of...

    I love this show. Great season.

    I did kind of find it ironic that Baylor was trying to play with her heart and her 3x divorced mother Missy was basically telling her to shut that shit down and be a ruthless cunt. Sure, there is a balance needed in survivor but you can see why that psychopath has the failed marriages. "Smile...

    The biggest problem with the travel woes is xpac inflation. A well designed original release continent or two may be well balanced and with a good community, ok to deal with slow travel with one or two port classes. However, 3 or 4 years down the line when you have endless unpopulated zones...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    If any of you have ever been to one of these sites, you will see the area they launch from is typically MILES from any manned facilities. At Cape Canaveral, the launch center is ~3.5 miles away from the pads. The launch site doesn't have much to it.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    The fact there was a Dev grouped in our actual raid window and using GM rez, just highlights the fact how screwed it was. That is Beta server behavior, not live release game.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    My point was not even about the raid scene. It was more to do with the fact GoD was tuned for level 70 and shipped without the level increase. The real story was GoD and OoW were supposed to be one single xpac. SoE tried to rush things out the door and effectively split the xpacs up. GoD never...
