220v into a power supply with the red switch set to 110 makes it kerplode.
Do you think this took out the motherboard and other pieces?
Any possible way to replace the kerploded bits on the power supply, or is it a write off?

I came into my room yesterday (after being there 15 minutes prior) and my comp was off. So, I turn it back on, go lay down.. and suddenly it was off again. It was shutting down by itself.. not even 'shutting down' - just powering off by itself completely.
Then when I tried to boot it up it would just turn off while in the boot process, or almost at windows or sometimes 2 seconds into windows..
No errors, logs, nothing.. just completely turns itself off.
This is a 500w PSU I just bought a few months ago new and really hope it is not that problem.

So after about 5 months of stong, rough use, my sennheiser HD-202s finally crapped out on me. The connection to the left ear is just gone. There's two things I want to know:
1) Is there any easy way to fix these?
2) If I have to get a new pair, what would you recommend for a pair that's much sturdier and less easy to break.

It was pretty funny to see Ben Foster all beefed up and kicking the shit out of people.
Also, I couldn't help but expect at any given moment that Justin Timberlake was going to suggest that the solution to their problem would be to just dance it out.

The July issue of PC Gamer (I believe the UK version from the scan) will have the first review of the game as well as the demo on the magazine's disc. This can only mean that the game will be released this summer (most likely July) with the demo prior to release sometime in June. Most rumours going around have said that Fileplant will have the "premiere" of the demo on June 6th. I won't be going out much this summer.......

Plus I'm starting to really get sick and tired of going to the movie at all. Why do I ALWAYS sit in from of some idiot who keeps kicking my seat? Assholes.

Think about it, the choreography in the final duel easily stands up to the matrix, also released that year, Qui Gon and Ben are two main characters that it's not actually difficult to follow around (as opposed to Ben and Anakin, which means its torture half the time) and visually, I think it's the film that resembles the original starwars trilogy the most, or at least far more then AotC.
It's got the best action sequences (AotC is just big and dumb, and the war scenes, the massive jedi battle at the end and so forth could belong to pretty much any film, whereas Menace gave lightsaber fighting the unique edge it needed in the modern age, not to mention that I actually managed to care about Qui Gon which means that at least for me the final battle in Menace is the only one with emotional investment), it is the least annoying of any of them (you can ignore Jar Jar, but it's hard to do the same with a main character like Anakin) and the ridiculous reveals and plot twists are at a comparative minimum.
I guess so many people rag on it because its the inception of the dissapointment, rather then another film that came along later and benefited from lowered expectations. Sigh.

Why does it seem so random?
I have a WRT54GL with Tomato firmware. Forwards ports flawlessly. I put in port, same for external/internal, then the IP address of my computer I want it to be forwarded for and it works.
My friend was getting frustrated with his router, so I advised him that he get a WRT54GL as well and flash it with Tomato. However, it seems no matter what he tries, when he forwards a port, he has no luck, and it still appears to be blocked.
The only difference I can see is, I have a Cable modem, and he has a DSL modem.
Ideas? (Assuming it's not a software firewall issue, which it doesn't appear to be)

It isn't really the quality of the CG, although for the time it was really good, but rather it's Mengsk's speech. More games need writers who can do stuff like this.

I'm looking for the video on Youtube that was posted a while ago. It is a dance number from a Bollywood movie where the main guy has these bigass sunglasses glasses and a giant 70s afro. The song was this really groovy bass thing.
Does anyone here have a link? Thanks in advance.
