Wife bought me one for xmas. Actually, she bought me two. I'm to decide which one I want. So, if anyone's familiar with these things, what features should I look for? What do you use? What do you wish you had? Both of the ones she gave me can record programs for later listening, and both can hold M...

I won him over. . . he's ditching the radio buttons and going with regular push buttons for navigation. We decided he could put radio buttons in there for quest type stuff when the time comes to fulfill the radio button requirement if need be. What broke him was when he'd ask me for help, I'd tell ...

My son took a programming class in high school (freshman). They are learning VB. What's killing me is, his current project is kind of a mix between a text adventure and . . . I don't know. Basically, the bottom of the window is a picture to show you what you see instead of words describing it. You ...

His books always seem to work out better when they are a tv mini series than movies.

I watched the whole series over the course of about a week, or less. By the second DVD, the song was near agonizing to listen to. I found it extremely homosexual.

How's the event going? I was considering going down, but then I found something more fun to do. Spending the day in ER trying to pass a kidney stone.

This sucks more than anything has ever sucked before.

Reported size: 3mm x 6mm. I'm just hoping it doesn't come out sideways.

All of the examples you site are situations were the consumer enters into it voluntarily. I know the game is about Spongebob when I buy it. So I don't feel screwed over when his image is plastered all over. I knew what I was getting into. BF 2142 has ads. I know it has ads. I won't be buying it. (b...

My brother in law and nephew came in once too. OAPI was great. Bringing friends in and rewiring the Network for maximum playability was awesome.

Well, if they did it right, they should get a huge payout on their death bed. I don't really see the coorilation between insurance and ads being crammed into games after you buy them. I know going into insurance that I only 'get my money's worth' if I fuck up. In game ads are up there with popups (...

Way back in the day, movies (Laser disk and even VHS) cost $50-100. Then, Top Gun included a Pepsi commercial with the movie and it sold for $10-20 cause Pepsi was covering the difference. Let's see if PC games follow that plan. Oh, wait, they are including Pepsi commercials, but the price hasn't c...

Wait a minute. . . you said semester. Are you doing this at a college? I've only known people who do the 3-5 day class thing. If they are dragging a 3-5 day class out across a semester. . . I can see where there'd be some fluff.

I've managed to pick up a nasty hijacking malware thing that's fucking up my browsing and doing who knows what else to my system. Soooo, I'm going to reload my OS. Is there a way to keep my EVE settings. Stuff in the notepad. Sorted buddies and bookmarks, etc. Any info would be appreciated.

I've avoided Steam since the first time it weasled it's way onto my system. Have said many times that I don't like it. Then Leisher started campaining for it, and I lowered my hate for it some. Enough that I actually bought HL2:GotY. Just loaded it last the other night. Watched with some sadness as...

So, the new episodes start in Jan? Or are they going to be repeats for a while on the new day and time? I may put the first 2 season in the blockbuster queue and rewatch the whole series and time it so I see the last episode of 2.0 (Assuming they release the first half early again [assuming that's ...

With the way blockbuster is running, I don't know that I'll need to buy many more DVDs. I have damn near instant gratification with their current setup. I have access to more movies than I can watch.

You must have Raving Rabbids then. . .

There are mini games in it where that's pretty much what you have to do. Sometimes, you have to use two hands.
