Morning Discussion
by Jeff "geedeck" Gondek, Dec 28, 2007 6:10am PSTGood morning everyone, hope this Friday finds you well. Many people are still home with their families and such, so to call news slow is an understatement. Instead, you've pretty much just got me. So sorry. :( Results for the holiday contest should be up in a couple hours. My computer decided that maybe a dying hard drive would make things more fun, which I admit is pretty awesome!
So what are you guys playing this weekend? I'll give a Call of Duty 4 t-shirt randomly to someone who posts in the thread. Oh, and this gallery should populate itself with some good shacker creations over the next couple hours if you would like to take that in.

So I am at my in-laws (to be) place and my gf's brothers family of 4 is there as well. Great people and my nephew was getting an xbox 360. On Xmas eve we are setting it up so when he wakes up he can jump right in only the dvd drive won't open. This leads to a lot of panic from his mom since this was the only big gift he was getting since they are pretty pricey and their xbox died for the same reason.
After forcing the drive open with a paper clip and then putting a disc in with no avail it seemed as if no power was going to the drive at all. The dad runs out to see if a walmart is open (shocker at 11 everything is closed) to get a new one. I thought this was all too weird so I tried plugging it into a different outlet. Just as if nothing was wrong the drive opened! The parents are very greatful and we all go to sleep.
The next morning the boy goes ape shit crazy ala SNES kid. We try some demo's and then when it was time to play a game

Looking on the AVS Forums, this is supposed to be one of the best looking HD DVDs out there. The picture quality is quite superb, but my god - it really is inferior to anything attenborough has done. The voice over is essentially kate blanchet from the beginning of LOTR, with text even in the same font as LOTR - i assume this is intended. My biggest problem is that in between the amazing vista's and cool scenes, the filler is really dull. The same spiel about volcano's gets said about 6 times in the first episode, so when you are riding on number 20 in the third episode - you get a bit bored.
Have to say though, so god damn pleased by the ending. Never expected:
Some dude with an assault rifle hanging out of a helicopter shooting goats. Really.... Wow.

so today, out of blue, i called her and she answered. she said she had read my email and is sorry to disappoint me but i gave her right amount and hung up on me while i was still talking. i gave her $65 for sure. i checked it right before i met her and there is no doubt about it.
of course it's my fault that i didn't ask her to check the amount in front of me and maybe i was too naive to think that even though only she and i know about it, we can still fix it. but wow... it hurts to know that people are willing to deceive others including themselves for that petty money.
TLDR: I overpaid $35 for a used book and am disgusted by people lying to themselves for money.

Can anybody give me their favorite spots to rack up driving points? I'm working on my 4th star and it's the only skill I don't have maxed. I'm playing with gangs on but I've killed about 2/3 of the first gang so far.
I googled for any tips but it seems I have to keep doing the usual stuff. Are there any especially awesome jumps or anything?

WHAT THE FUCK?
somebody please explain this stuff to me
what the fuck happened? the first hour grabs you by the nuts and doesn't let go and the second hour just lets go without telling you anything.
uh
did guy who found the money originally at the tree die? i mean tommy lee jones seemed to give his wife that impression but how did it happen? where was the body?
and UHHM
what the fuck happened to the guy's wife who wouldn't pick a coin? did she die? the guy checked his feet as he walked off the porch so maybe it was for blood? FUCK IF I KNOW BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T TELL US A FUCKING THING IN THIS MOVIE.
oh and
that seriously has to be the worst ending ever in an otherwise awesome movie although the last half hour was pretty much completely retarded. the only good news is creepy crazy fuck is still alive so maybe, allah willing, there could be a sequel and all these fucking questions could be answered? as of now i fucking hate this stupid movie though for dragging me along and leaving me with blue balls.

What is the best original series Adult Swim has been involved with?
My vote would be Metalocalypse. It's an amazing show, killer soundtrack, and Brendon Small is a fscking genius, imo. Every single person who I've introduced to Metalocalypse loves it, and I'm amazed that music from a cartoon could be so insanely good. If you haven't checked it out, do yourself a favor and go get you some explosion sauce.
Thoughts?

Here's where we post RSS feeds we subscribe to and list why.
Of course like 90% of the people will have Engadget, etc. but if you know of any cool sites that aren't as mainstream (or are, it really doesn't matter), post em up.
I'm interested in knowing what everyone else reads and then sifting through, I'd like to add some cool ones to my list of things I wouldn't see everyday,.
Personally I have about 250 to 300 posts per day I see but a third or more are repeats because the sits are subscribe to our so similar.
Also, we could totally get some of that creepy New Google Reader Stalker/Sharing thing going on if someone would like.

Microsoft has their security stuff running on this computer in addition to the AVG and it’s forever coming up with the dialog box to check my system. I went in and did the uninstall of what I thought was the Microsoft stuff and still it’s coming up. The security center says it’s still running etc.
I am wondering if its UAC or something.
