    Strange, they do not list their calories on any cakes. I did find this pretty insane though:

    Was this a real disk, or a pirate download version? In my experience, I have had more crappy 3D rips than good ones. I'd be sure to try a legit 3D BR disk and check that all is well.

    Collections question

    Jeez. That still seems crazy for rates. I own only two cards and they are 7.9% on my Platinum Master Card with $20k limit and 9.9% on my Signature Rewards Visa with $50k limit. I pulled my score a couple months back and I was 804 or 806. Can't remember.

    Yea, I noticed the exact same thing Tuco. I browsed the storage and the parts sections briefly, but they list all their "discounts" off of MSRP price. Which basically puts the same price as it already is year-round.

    Survivor

    When have they done a 2 hour episode? I really can not recall one in the past. (outside of final vote / finale of course) Hopefully its not a 1 hour season recap, followed by a normal episode.

    Khane, I do pay mine off every month. My comment about his lousy APR was in direct response to his worry about the effects of this collection on his credit score. The APR you will likely get is weighted on your FICO for the most part. He said he had a previous 805 score, so 12.9% is a terrible...

    You've linked this OCZ SSD:OCZ ARC 100 ARC100-25SAT3-240G 2.5 - Newegg.com For $10 more, you get the tried and true 840 Evo vs some relatively new unproven OCZ drive.

    Tuco, swap that POS SSD for this: Amazon.com: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-7TE250BW): Computers Accessories The rest looks fine.

    Chromecast is over Wifi, no? I had issues in the past before my hardwired Boxee connection. I basically torrent 1080p BluRay quality rips with HD-MA and would suffer from buffer stuttering and search (FF / RW) functions due to wifi bandwidth issues. I'd much prefer a hardwired solution that is...

    I'm completely clueless with PLEX. How does it generally work? I am guessing I would need to install a copy of Win7 and run within windows? What are the best options for a remote? I love the Bluetooth remote with the Boxee with a tiny keyboard built into the back. I am guessing this...

    Kinda fucking weird, but my only celebrity interaction was with Summer Sanders. Back in high school (near Orlando FL) she worked on a shitty MTV show called "Sandblast". It would film at one of the disney water parks, which i forget the name of. So my girlfriend at the time and I actually got on...

    SOE do the occasional triple SC. I seem to remember it at Christmas time. I don't play any SoE games anymore, but I am certain I have over 20k SC piled up from the last triple SC sale.

    I wish Boxee Box didn't sell off to Samsung. I still use mine, but I would kill to have an updated version. It's basically just a media player that connects to your network. I use a NAS to drop all my torrents on and the Boxee will organise, create thumbnails, descriptions, trailer links, etc on...

    Survivor

    I was shocked to see Jon absolutely clueless that he was getting votes. As you guys said, his reaction was completely dumbfounded "What? Are you sure?". They had his ass packing if Nat didn't say anything. Still a lame season overall, but I like seeing those crazy tribals!

    I hate this period of flux for monitors. Stuff migrating to 4k and panel tech changes like IGZO, etc. I REALLY need a new monitor that is best of both worlds. I want 27" or greater, IPS quality panel with the fastest possible response time. Basically, I want this monitor for both gaming and...

    Pretty good deal. I bought the 850 series drive a few months back. I imagine vendors are just trying to get rid of the old 840 series inventory at this point. Nice time to get a great SSD for sure.

    Jurassic Park 4

    Yea, the first two books were Michael Crichton novels. The first movie followed fairly close and was a success. The second movie was miles away from the book and was generally panned. The third movie was complete hollywood nonsense. I hope they can turn it around with this one.

    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.
