Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Sep 05, 2005 6:50pm PDTWell, eat like crap for a couple of days after a couple of years of eating healthy and you really start to realize how much of a difference it can make in your life. I figured now was a good a time as any to take try out my old diet for a few days and it's really pretty crazy. The short summary is less energy and more farts. The farts are kind of fun though I suppose. Farts are funny :D

I think if I every tried to find some version of CSI one night and couldn't find anything I'm pretty sure I couldn't sleep until I got my daily dose....
It would be used for school work primarily (text-based) and some very low-level gaming. Basically, it just needs a decent video card that won't choke up on her with a few applications open, good sized hard drive, and (preferably) a dvd burner. 512/1024MB of RAM would be ideal.
I'm only asking you guys because I'm completely out of the loop on mobile technologies... and I assume someone on here must be in a better position than me on this subject.

Though I appreciate the hardwork and dedication of fans, I'm a bit dubious about slapping non-Troika sanctioned software onto the game.
Has anyone played with these patches? Do I really need them? Do they fix lots of annoyances like spelling and subtitles, or are they more of the muckity-muck, mess with the levers behind-the-scenes, change the whole feel of the game types of patches?

White Foragers Report Threat Of Black Looters
NEW ORLEANS—Throughout the Gulf Coast, Caucasian suburbanites attempting to gather food and drink in the shattered wreckage of shopping districts have reported seeing African Americans "looting snacks and beer from damaged businesses." "I was in the abandoned Wal-Mart gathering an air mattress so I could float out the potato chips, beef jerky, and Budweiser I'd managed to find," said white survivor Lars Wrightson, who had carefully selected foodstuffs whose salt and alcohol content provide protection against contamination. "Then I look up, and I see a whole family of [African-Americans] going straight for the booze. Hell, you could see they had already looted a fortune in diapers." Radio stations still in operation are advising store owners and white people in the affected areas to locate firearms in sporting-goods stores in order to protect themselves against marauding blacks looting gun shops.

I've had a few meals at the new Whole Foods joint here in town and I must admit it's pretty tasty. Also, for a bunch of vegetarian ladyboys they've got one hell of a meat department. hello thailor Now being the godless, evil fuck that I am I'm also a fan a genetically <sp? fuckit> enhanced foods. I actually think science can make it better. So my question is this... Is there a breakdown of common foods that have been evaluated for overall nutrition, healthiness, and tastiness between "whole/natural", processed, and "enhanced"? The whole foods place is more expensive in general, but if nothing else they make the food look better. Also the chef hats in the cafe make it classy bitches.

So help me out here. I'm not all that knowledgable abou HD tv's or anyhting like that. We have an EDTV which can actually broadcast HD signals in 720p and 1020i I think...
Anyhow...the TV has a DVI-HD input. Do I have to use this input for HD? Or can I get HD signals through component connections also? (lack of knowledge obviously shows here).
Also anyone with Comcast OD using their dvi connection on their DVR they supply? I heard they turn the connection off and dont let people use it.

My two problems are:
1. How the hell is it legal for them to break into someones car to tow it?
2. Private companies shouldn't be doing the towing, and if they are they should get the job by bidding who will charge the citizens the LEAST to tow cars, not like they do now where they basically pay the city money to tow cars. Thats a straight perversion of power, literally they charge you $250 for the tow, plus $25-$50 a day to hold your car.
