So I'm finally replacing my 560 Ti and I'll probably get a GTX 970. Is there any particular version that's better than the others at the moment?

The most effective AV nowadays is a few browser extensions and having half a brain. I use ABP and Ghostery (and noscript when I use FF) with MSE and Malwarebytes. I only run scans when MSE prompts me to and run Malwarebytes every 6 months or so. Haven't had any real infections in over 10 years...

A chimichanga would have been even better.

Android cameras should improve as we see more 5.0 devices. 5.0 adds a lot to the camera API, so camera apps will have a lot more control over the sensor once they update to take advantage of it. The Sony Exmor sensor on the OPO is supposed to be pretty good, but low light performance could...

Used NY's free system this year, it was pretty easy. My taxes are about as simple as it gets though.

Don't forget that in 6-12 months they'll claim it was a temporary promo and start billing you for triple the original price!

So I just got an OPO invite with 12 hours until it expires. Anyone who wants one PM me and Ill send you the link.

Got my OPO today and I doubt I'm going to regret not waiting for a Nexus 6. After using Lollipop for so long going back to Kit Kat just wasn't going to work. I immediately rooted it so I could update it to CM 12, which works well enough for now. I'm hoping PA updates to Lollipop sometime, but...

I figured I'd end up having to make one, it just annoys me that they use play services for the useless achievements, but don't enable cloud saves. Guess it's time to dust off the old yahoo address I used to used for stuff I don't want tied to the email address I actually use.

So has anyone managed to migrate the game to a different device without using facebook? IIRC, if you restore the game from a backup on to a new device it checks your device ID against what the save is expecting and resets the games if it's different. My OPO gets delivered today and I'd rather...

Won't bother with it until there's some sort of adblock or noscript available for it. Even then, getting me to stop using chrome after the useful stuff Google has built in to it would be pretty difficult.

Android 5.0 will fall back to mobile data if wifi has a bad signal or no internet connection, so maybe the iphone is doing the same thing.

If it finally allows me to tell Time Warner to fuck off, I'm ok with this.

You have to buy an app to change the APN setting on Windows Mobile? What the shit?

So, Slaine isn't completely worthless after all...

That's unfortunate. I thought they eventually expire, but wasn't sure. Hopefully my tax return gets deposited soon so I can start tracking one down.

So, it looks like I'll be opting for the OPO once my tax return comes in. Any of you still sitting on invites for the 64GB model?

I used to drive at night around upstate NY for a living and the worst were the Canadian truckers. If it was tearing up I-87 at 75 mph in a blizzard it probably had Quebec plates. I made crawling around access roads between mountains in Killington and Ludlow VT a pleasure by comparison.

Getting the abnormality bullshit using Shida as well. Unfortunately I don't really have much of a choice but to use him as I'm on my new account that's less than a month old. I think it's time to find a new game.

How do you like the N6? Is the pink tint when when the screen dims much of an issue for you? How's battery life? You might want to keep an eye on the back cover, as it apparently has a tendency to separate from the phone. I fought with sprint a while back about an ETF when I ditched them...

I've been without cable TV for 16 years, it was never a priority for me. Stopped bothering with a home phone 14 years ago so bundle pricing was never attractive. I use Netflix, Prime, Hulu Plus and Crunchyroll, though I am dropping Hulu Plus. As with everyone else, sports are the biggest...

Phones are much better at preventing overcharging, a good chunk of that is built right in to the battery. The battery is normally not allowed to be fully charged, nor fully drained, to maximize it's lifespan. I've also seen wireless chargers that detect when the phone is fully charged and...

If you tap on the text below the wifi icon it takes you to the wifi settings. Same goes for bluetooth.

I imagine he's going to eventually have his orange mech wrecked at some point and he'll end up stealing one of the martian's. If he could take Slaine's that could prove amusing. As far as Log Horizon goes I'm just watching it out of pure habit at this point. Other than Aldnoah, Parasyte and...

That's a pricey modem compared to Time Warner. Until I finally got around to buying my own modem a few months ago, I had been using a Toshiba modem that was old when they gave it to me 8 years ago. That was probably better than the Ubee pieces of shit they give out now though.

I don't know if they do, but there is no obvious attachment point for one.

You can use Plex for that. Hell, Amazon was giving away the android app for free last week, normally $5.

Came here to post Conan, glad to see I was beaten to it. Battle of the Mounds is the best track though.

Got caught up on UBW, things are finally getting interesting. Up until now I had felt that Zero was superior in every way other than animation, though a lot of that is probably my preference for adult characters over teens. Going to see if I can get caught up on Cross Ange next while waiting...

Got a response from support, they sent me a generic response to connection issues, nothing to do with losing my account. Fucking useless. Still don't understand why they implemented the Play Games achievements but not the cloud saves. Decided I'll just restart and never give them another...

GotAmazon.com - SPACE Seating Professional Dark Air Grid Back with Black Eco Leather Seat, Managers Chair - Adjustable Home Desk Chairsfor christmas. Comfy and sturdy. It's a big improvement over the shitty chair I got from staples 6 years ago that started falling apart this month. Though I...

Binged on Fate Zero and I'm now a few episodes in to UBW. Goddamnit why can't everything be animated this well?

Well, I think I'm done with this. I got a "Cannot find user info" error a few days ago and the game wiped itself and wanted me to start from scratch. Tried restoring from backups but the games tells me my live session has expired, which is normal for restoring from a backup, then gives me the...

Looks like I'm going to be giving my parents the Fire stick in exchange for their chromecast. Having an interface on the TV makes it a lot easier for my dad to use, plus they don't have any other way of getting prime videos on the TV easily.

The thing is that it can turn your TV in to a monitor for any device on the network that supports the casting protocol. Hell, they just updated the android chromecast app to allow devices not on the same network to cast to your chromecast if you give it permission. It's mainly a convenience...

If you are interested in getting a newer phone, you might want to check out the Xperia Z3 Compact. It's smaller than the infuse in every dimension, same weight, 4.6" screen and water and dust resistant. Supposed to have very good battery life as well. As far as going on contract, does the Go...

The stick already has allcast support? Damn, I should have checked. Would be nice if it supported the screen casting protocol that's built in to 5.0, but allcast will do.

Awesome. Must have missed that when I was setting it up.

Well, seeing as the infuse is a 4.5" screen, the iphone 4S would be the last model that was produced with a smaller screen (3.5"). The 5 has a 4.5" screen, so that might be too big as well. IIRC, carriers usually offer the previous iphone at a steep discount and the one before that for almost...

Only downside to it is the lack of youtube, google movies and no support for android screen casting. If those aren't a concern it's a no brainer. I have yet to try Plex on it, I'll have to see how well it handles higher quality videos.
