  1. I have this shit running on my computer right now. its one of the most amazing things ive seen in a while. it has a lot of really usefull features to it, its not all for looks. i recommend any of the other linux people on the board to check it out (that is if there are any)
  2. why dont we start a section that is dedicated to computer related stuff, that way people can have their computer questions answered. it could include like cool computer stuff relating to cars and stuff too. hell it could be a straight up tech corner! for are geeked-out needs! ive got it, we will call it "staight up tech corner!" oh hell yeah! well, its just a thought
  3. if this is a repost, GFY! i want to make one, really nice place to keep your wine! http://www.thatimagesite.com/image/988
  4. The ticket was $25, with $75 court costs! I've called the number a few times and left messages and they never called back.
  5. Is a seatbelt ticket like a parking ticket, if I dont pay it can they issue an arrest warant? Plus its in a different state.
  6. Portsmouth is full of unmarked cars, and I see them pulling people over all the time. They actually just did it the other night out in front of my house.
  7. ok so I just paid for armored fury, but it keeps giving me a server error. so I cant download it I have to wait till later errrr
  8. finally the one thing I always thought war games were missing, US soil!
  9. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=51417 Discuss I would start, but I would be breaking some of the main rules of the board, and thats not what im about.
  10. now it wasent his whole foot, just part of it. He continued playing after that. I usually hate sports, but I loved slamball.
  11. for those who cant hear so good. lol http://www.stuckeyandmurray.com/unicornhearing.htm
  12. ok, so 2 days under the one month of owning my pc, my water pump died. my the computer overheated real bad and shut off. my big problem is newegg says that i have to go threw the manufacuturer and thermaltake has realllllly shitty technical support. im a little pissed. but the stock heatsink is working pretty good.
  13. I go to Shawnee State University for Game/Simulation Engineering. I am working for the school making a simulation of the campus and as a lab tech. but, I also do some freelance programming, and I have a few projects of my own that I hope will one day make me a very famous computer programmer.
  14. Two thumbs up, five stars, 10/10. Kicked ass! Well thats my review. This game was put together well. Music rocked, graphics are awsome especially the lighting fx, great story too. Alot of people said that it was scary, which it does have that the Ring feel to it, but I even tried playing it in the middle of the night with all the lights off and the volume cranked I didnt find it scary but I did think it had a lot of cool parts. This game and Prey are both great games that should be in every gamers collection.
  15. thanks for the suggestions shawn, im going to stick new fittings on that external radiator. the problem is that the inside of the fitting was striped real bad. im going to experiment with that one when its fixed. maybe submerse it in oil, or remove the fan caseing and submerge it in salty ice water. just for fun its quiter than my last set up, but its still fairly loud (plus i upgraded the fan). but the fan speed is adjustable. which is cool because this time around they went from the 1/4" tubing to the 3/8", which moves a hell of alot more liquid, so it tends to stay cooler even with the fan all the way down, which is extremely quite.
  16. its nice to see others like the trackball, to bad everyone is discontinuing them. little known fact trackball > mouse for pc gaming. less body movement alows for better speed and accuracy. The whole setup was about $1400, for everything but the usb speakers keyboard and mouse. yeah its dual core and 64bit (which i still dont understand why all the windows folk still waste there money on a 64bit processor, and use a 32bit os) im going to get race driver 3 and wheel, when i get some more money.
  17. price, and i needed this now for work.
  18. the 1900 kicks ass, but the linux driver support is appalling. im still having problems getting xorg and the ati drivers to cooperate. and on the mr2, i waited 2 years for that car to be for sale. its mine! lol
  19. Decided it was time to upgrade so I gots me a, 19" Rosewill Widscreen monitor (1440x900) big enough for me Asus P5LD2 mobo (cheap, but it gets the job done) Pentium D 930 3.0GHz overclocked to 3.9GHz (heluva lot faster than the P4) Thermaltake Bigwater 745 Liquid Cooling kit w/arctic silver 5 soon to get a VGA waterblock 2G of OCZ DDR2 Ram ATI Radeon X1900XT 512M ram 500W Thermaltake power supply 2 DL DVDRW drives 1 WD 320GB SATA drive 2 Maxtor 200GB EIDE drives The processor runs at 36degrees celsius idle and 45C with a load. I removed the large radiator from the water system, it only droped the temp 1degree, and it leaked . but the GPU runs a crazy 75C with a load, so I will get a waterblock for that soon. Currently running Gentoo Linux and Windows suXP Pro Its a sleeper http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/ohio_wookie/IMG_1981.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/ohio_wookie/IMG_1974.jpg

    Prey

    also, it looks a shitload better on the pc. i personally think the 360 version looks like shit.

    Prey

    awsome game, lacking a little in the AI department. I was very impressed. First game in a long time in which you see little kids die. Definatly one of the best endings of any game, and the story line is pretty sweet. and stay for after the credits.
  22. Well I personally like the set up. damn close to what i just bought.
  23. Ok, i was under the impression that if the cop gets any of your information on the ticket wrong it became invalid. If so what information would have to be wrong? I got a ticket in north carolina for not wearing a seatbelt, and on the ticket he put my address as being portsmouth, virginia instead of portsmouth, ohio and he didnt record my social.
  24. I have the 2000 oldsmobile equivalent to a trailblazer. Im not a big fan of these older models. The smarttrak automatic all wheel drive does not work like I would like it, and the ABS seems to be waay to sensitive. Thats my opinion, could be my particular car, and the bravadas could be more different than i think.
