    CFB 2013-2014

    People also don't realize that UCF is fucking HUGE. Bigger enrollment than Ohio St, Michigan, Texas any SEC school, etc. 2nd largest enrollment in the US behind Arizona St, and it's only behind them by a couple hundred List of United States university campuses by enrollment - Wikipedia, the...

    Wichita KS - No, really

    Eh, Wichita isn't a hellhole or anything. It's a pretty typical small to medium sized, boring, generic city(I think the population is a few hundred thousand, it's not tiny). Has all the typical stores and chain restaurants that you would expect, as well as a fairly large university. They have...

    Tablets

    I'd honestly stay away from Kindle as it has no access to the Google app store unless you root your device. Everything has to go through the Amazon app store only. Get a Nook HD(7") or HD+(9"), it's a lot more versatile with access to both Google app stores and Amazon app stores if you want...

    Laptop Computers

    What do you consider reasonable? You can get some 15.6 and 17" laptops with dedicated graphics cards that are decent starting in the $600-$700 price range, although those are probably going to be 1600x900 screens at best. 1080p is going to cost a couple hundred more with a dedicated graphics card.

    Yeah, I didn't buy anything from Newegg this year. Everything I buy for my PC now is either from Tigerdirect, Amazon, or Microcenter(B&M)

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Honestly, if I waited for my wife to initiate sex, we'd probably never have sex again.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    My wife has never had a very high sex drive, even when we were dating. We've been together for like 3.5 years and married for 1.5 and we've always had sex like a couple times a week on average, and that rate has been pretty steady both pre and post marriage, and now post child(7 months old)...

    There can be a couple different kinds of notices. One kind would be a bandwith notice, if they see your are uploading hundreds of GB per month, that could put you on their watch list and they might send you a nasty letter saying they can shut down or throttle your service. Also if you are what...

    Desktop Computers

    Looks real solid The only thing you *might* consider would be a larger SSD, like possibly going with a Samsung Evo 250GB for like $40 more than you were going to spend on the 128GB Pro The reason I say this is that generally speaking, the larger the capacity the better a SSD performs, so...

    No, never. Between my wife and I we had 2 S2s, she now has an S3, I had a S4 for about 6 months and now I have a Note 3. No vibrating problems with any of them and we had the S2s for 2 full years and my wifes S3 is a good year and a half old

    HDTVs

    LG is damn good, I have a 55" LG Plasma and it looks incredible. It was also only $700. I couldn't justify spending 2 grand on a Panasonic Plasma, I could barely see any picture quality difference, so it definitely wasn't worth 3x the cost to me. The bezel is also about the smallest I've ever...

    Hell I played through the whole game, completely upgrading my ship(only 93% completion, fuck getting fragments and chests on deserted islands) and I never realized that firing your side cannons without aiming does more damage. Damnit

    Wel, spoke too soon, just died to desync at lvl 45 going through the Vaal ruins with a lightning-strike Scion. I should have kept my mouth shut, lol. No loot drop differences at all, unfortunately.

    Path of Exile

    Everything is viable in nemesis/hardcore as long as you put almost all your skil points into survivability (HP, ES, Evasion, +all resists). And if you can't cap all your resists, at the very least cap lightning, lightning tends to wreck your shit faster than either of the other spell types...

    Computer Issues

    While 115F isn't that hot, thats only like 46C, if that is a temperature while your computer is idling, then you could be having temp issues. Most modern processors with appropriate cooling will idle in the 25-35C range. A full load should push your processor into the 50s, maybe even approach...

    Path of Exile

    I exclusively play hardcore, and I've never died to a desync. Then again, I tend to not play melee builds, and the few I do play definitely aren't fast-moving ones (flicker strike, ground slam, lightning warp, etc). I tend to lean towards ranged builds more than anything (casters and bow...

    That is it, they make pizzas in most of their stores. You can buy it by the slice or order a whole pizza to go and they'll bake it fresh. Damn good stuff.

    whoever made the design decision to let the CPU and GPU both share a cheap, thin copper heatsink should be flogged in the streets. Such a bad idea.

    Gravity (2013)

    This movie is basically a 90-minute visual effects show. Watching it on your TV at home compared to the IMAX 3D experience is about the same difference as if you watched something on your phone compared to your big screen TV with surround sound. It's a massive, massive step in quality of...

    Housing on the coasts just absolutely baffles me, I don't know how people afford it. I know general salaries and wages are higher than here in the midwest but not 5-10x higher. A new 2000 square foot home with a 3 car garage on a good sized lot is like $200K here in the KC suburbs. Thats a...

    Yeah you have to root your device to do it. Not going to do that to my nephews tablet as I don't want to have to manually update it for him until the end of time.

    Childrens Leap pads

    My little 9 year old nephew got a Kindle Fire HD for Christmas and I was helping him get it set up. Man, that thing pisses me right off. No access to the Google Play store at ALL. I still have some credit at the google play store from when I bought my Nexus and I was going to purchase him a...

    Computer Issues

    What brand of laptop is it? Is it an HP? Many models of HPs made from like 2008-2012 or so have severe heat issues with the GPU. They built them to where the GPU and CPU both share a heatsink, so the GPU never gets a chance to cool off(with the CPU always keeping the heatsink hot) and over...

    Tablets

    I'd be curious if the pen even works at all with a screen protector. I have multiple Samsung Note products(Note 3 phone, Note 10.1 tablet) and they don't work for shit if you put a screen protector on the screen, the pen goes all wonky and glitchy.

    Lol. We were so busy over the holidays that my wife forgot to take her birth control the last couple days. When she realized it this morning I just told her "that's ok, we can just do anal for the next week". She didn't find it as funny as I did. Although to be fair, I wasn't completely...

    Path of Exile

    Hardcore takes some careful balancing. You don't want to be under-leveled for an area and get killed, but if you over-level everything too far, your loot drops suffer. So in hardcore, I generally try to stay anywhere from 2-4 levels above the zones I'm in. I don't mind a little bit of a...

    I did just get married last year for the first time, at age 35, so I had plenty of long relationships previous to my wife. I'd only known her for 2 1/2 years when we got married. I had been engaged once before in my early 20s but she passed away unexpectedly, that did take a long time to get...
