    The E-cig Thread

    Hey guys. For Father's Day, I wanted to get my Dad a vaporizer, to try and help him to stop smoking. He's been smoking Camel unfiltered for years and years, and he says he's tried vapes before, but without success. So I'm a little late for Father's Day , but still wanted to get it for him. A...

    Smartphones

    So after having the Note 5 for a little while, I'm feeling like going back to a slightly smaller phone. The S7 looks to be the logical choice, but then I read about the Note 7 coming, and damn does it look freakin' sweet. Bringing back the SD card, IP68 water resistant, great camera, etc. Then...

    The Fast Food Thread

    That reminds me of the bottles of watermelon juice I bought at Costco. Cold pressed watermelon's I guess? Was a little odd, because it tasted like the watermelon rind mostly, but it grew on me very quickly and I was downing those suckers so fast. And Mike and Ike's are by far the best chewy...

    Babies in da house!!! Think the wife said Feb 20th for our due date. Trying to decide if I want to know the gender of this one before hand, or do a gender reveal party, or just not find out. It's crazy.

    I got told on Father's Day that we are expecting our 3rd child. Oh shit.... We were not preventing it, but not really trying either, so we knew it was bound to happen. I'm still in denial, but it'll come around eventually.

    What do you do?

    Job I'm in now is my first contract job, and I'm beginning to see the down sides. Lately it's been a little tumultuous because parent company is consolidating staffing agencies from 3 to 1 new one. I'm sure they just under-bid everyone, but watching the old ones fight to keep us under them is...

    Recently came back, and was catching up on all the things that changed. I wanted to do some HVTs for loot, as it was said here how much loot drops from there. Then I realized I needed the currency to buy the HVT missions. Then I realized I hadn't finished every single encounter or side mission...

    TeamViewer Hacked

    I think I have a TV account, but don't use it. Just got an email about an account login confirmation. It's all in Chinese and the sign in is from Beijing. Since I don't use it and it's not running on my computer, I should be ok, right?

    So my responsibilities won't be changing, but the staffing agency will be. Company I'm contracted to finally worked out and signed a new contract to provide IT services to another company, and with that, want to consolidate the staffing agencies they use from 3-4 down to 1. We'll see what...

    Tablets

    So the Kindle Fire kids tablet is great for the Freetime. It's neat being able to restrict times of day the kids can use it, and how long they can use it, and can only run entertainment apps after so long of educational apps. Those things are neat, and I wish Freeitme was available on all...

    Yeah, system has been stable and normal for years, and then I OC'ed to 4.3Ghz, and ran prime95 and it remained stable. Couple freezes, but for the most part it's been great. The problem is I haven't ever noticed any slow down or problem, but just happened to notice it yesterday that it's...

    Suggest me games

    Borderlands 2 is what I thought of immediately after you said being able to solo stuff that was previously only MP. Game has raid mobs that can be soloed if you get good enough gear. As far as I know though there isn't any PvP.

    Yeah, that's how it used to look. The programs that max it out are changing constantly.It's not 1 or another constantly up top. Edit: And it's not one doing it all. Literally the top 10 are in constant flux.

    So I learned today that my system is running at 100% CPU load constantly according to task manager. I overclock my CPU, and I'm pretty sure that I checked off the setting that makes my CPU speed variable? So it's not pegged at max speed constantly? Would this be why it's reading 100% constantly...

    Weight Loss Thread

    #1 is the most important thing about any of it. I think that most attempts that I have given to weight loss, do stem from wanting it to happen. But things change, life happens, who knows. The ability to keep that motivation. To not give in, to keep going. That is more the battle. Then again, if...

    Understandable. Before starting anything, I'm going to get back into a doctor. I just moved to the Northwest 5 months ago, and haven't actually gone. The idea of a keto diet sounded more manageable than other diets. Right now, I still don't know how healthy eating habits will turn into a...

    So I don't want to cause a huge nasty debate on keto, but from reading this thread I'm considering trying that. I've done the calorie counting before, with MFP, and just generally had a calorie deficit, but I didn't stick with it. I'm diabetic, controlled with Metformin, so technically...

    So a question that I have is how come this game gets a bad wrap for being grindy, when Diablo has similar systems, and everyone just accepts it? I'm not saying the old system was at all good, no. It sucked dick. And grinding out gear when hardly any gear is dropping is just tedious bullshit...

    How much do you weigh?

    I've never worn my pants above belly roll in my life, unless you count that 1 suit that was tailored to fit that way with suspenders. But, I do feel that I'm a lot of torso at the same time, so maybe both are working against me. Recent image for reference, at Black Bear's Frozen Yogurt.
