Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Aug 27, 2004 5:00pm PDTI am free of the evil-doers at Sprint. Although AT&T had the coolest phones it seems that the more I read about things the more Verizon seemed to suit best what I needed out of a cell phone. I dont know why I'm telling you guys this but the Sprint support guy was just a jackoff. There, I said it!

The other thing that bothers me is how the mini has the desirable aesthetics but crappy storage space for the same price as a regular one with decent storage space but not the cool factor. The one thing I do like is the car accessory that lets you play them in your car through an RF transmitter, however that kit is 70 bucks :(

I think my VC is overheating. I played the whole game, and recently started over on Nightmare. The other night I installed the Trite nest map, and when I started Doom3 everything was all sparkly (if you ever OC a card too far you know what I mean) But I chalked it up the the map.
I only played a few min of it and I crashed to my desktop. no matter, but now even my main game wont run more than 3 min without crashing. I deleted the map pack and cant think of anything else that was installed or changed. (XP2600+ Ti4200 512MB)

Does anyone here subscribe to Entertainment Weekly, or have access to the latest issue? (your parents subscribe, etc.)
If it's not too much to ask, I'd like it if someone could scan one of the album reviews featured this issue (Donald Trump on the cover)
Anyone want to help me out?

ShackMeet on next Tuesday ? I'll be sucking on the ribs from the Dinosaur BBQ, allowing the creamy goodness of DippinDots to melt on my tongue and drinking a few beers.
With my luck it will be Hillary visits the Fair day and forced genuflection.

I'm not a huge anime fan, most of it is too fucking wierd for me. I know Akira is supposed to be a classic, but towards the end, I was just not getting it. Don't even get me started on the videos, I don't have the patience to sit through hours and hours of this stuff.
What I would like to know is if there are any really good anime mech movies. Not series, I know there are a ton of them, but movies.

Would it be worth my time to swap that for my GF3 ti200?
I read that the 5200 has directX9 functionality, but it had very poor performance.
Any Shack Thoughts on this swap?

I just recently upgraded my system. What would be the best way to get info off my old ide hard drive onto my new sata hard drive, especially since now both hard drives have boot sectors? When I tried plugging the ide drive in as a slave, the computer wants to use it as the primary boot device and I can't find any setting in the bios to specifically choose sata over ide for booting.

yes the detail is still sparse in some shots and lighting is arbitrary and just for "seeing wtf I am doing" in some areas. It will look better! layout first, then geometry, then lighting, then clipping, then testing, then optimization, more testing, release - still in geometry phase

Ok so what is up with their subscription service? If I pay the 21 bucks a month I get my pick of any 2 audio books? and if not any I pick how can I tell what I have to choose from without subscribing? Or do I just get some half assed discount? I'm curious here but I dont want to make the plunge until I know what kind of deal their subscription is.
Thanks.
