It's hot
It's been like 90F here for two weeks straight, with added high humidity levels. It's been terrible.
- STEAM!

European parliament grants itself Ipads to all its members
Full blown laptops? Sure. Laptops/netbooks with the same or more functionality than an Ipad? Not really.

North Korea attacks and sinks South Korean ship, killing 46 people
True, but we shouldn't focus on Korea as a whole and more on Kim Jong. Take out the head and ensure that the proper succession follows. Yeah, we're really good at that.

Simulated Mars Mission
Yarp. The galaxies interact gravitationally, but stars/planets are unlikely to collide due to the vast distance between them.

I have several old HDs and I want to access them...
Arkan, that adapter will work fine for desktop IDE drives. I've used adapters like that one for a few years. For the laptop drive however, you will need to add this adapter in addition to the one that you have... http://cgi.ebay.com/Laptop-PC-Hard-Drive-I...=item3a5b023e12 This will give you the ability to power the laptop drive that the other adapter does not allow. There are other simple adapters for SATA drives as well and all of them are cheap. **Edit** I see that the adapter you picked does adapt to SATA as well. It might also power a laptop drive as well. Certainly won't be a waste of money to try it. The worst you will have to do is buy the adapter that I listed. Yup. I got it, it hooks up to lappy drives, and it works like a charm!

Shows renewed 2010-2011 season
Add another to the Community bandwagon. I also like Modern Family and Parks and Recreation. I can't wait until It's Always Sunny starts back up in September!

Teh Wireless!
In my experience, internal cards seem to have better reliability overall, but that micro USB one looks swank.

Windows 7 64bit
Seriously, I ****ing do. I have no problems with Windows 7, so I don't think it's a bit of a *****. If you disable everything that makes 7 different from XP, then WHY get 7 in the first place?

I have several old HDs and I want to access them...
Specifically, I have an old laptop HD, and two old regular HDs. I want to be able to access them and use them as storage for DVRing on my current PC. This is what I've found online. Will this do the trick with little hassle? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Se...&CatId=3770 Any other suggestions?

Windows 7 64bit
7 64 bit has run flawlessly on my computer. 32 bit, too, on two other computers.

This sheet is bananas
I can tell by unfocusing my eyes. The color of the squares A and B appear the same. Not sure why that is.

The Flaming Lips - Best Band Ever or Just an Orgasm For Your Ears?
For me it's either "Do You Realize" or "Racing for the Prize." Great band.

Spellforce 1 strategy guide
Forget Spellforce 1, is Spellforce 2 really any good? I've had a copy of it lying around for a while now....

Removal of all Socialism in the US!
A Chuck Nocracy. Not to be confused with a Chuck Rockracy.

Removal of all Socialism in the US!
Wouldn't complete lack of socalism be like Rapture from Bioshock? Every man for himself?

Wow. Microsoft really dropping the ball with Windows Phone 7
What kind of file system does it have?

Sarah Palin joins Fox News
If you don't see the difference between using a teleprompter for speeches and needing crib notes written on a hand to help you through pre-selected questions then that's just sad. Obama did just fine a couple Saturdays ago when he did a Q&A with Republicans with no teleprompter. And FWIW, Obama didn't use the teleprompter with the 6th grade students.

Wow. Microsoft really dropping the ball with Windows Phone 7
http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/02...step.backwards/ Windows Phone 7 to drop multitasking? So their idea to compete with Apple is to offer FEWER features than are already available with Windows Mobile 6? For Me, multitasking and an open-ended file system is a must. This is why I've defended MS (phone-wise) ever since I started using PDA's years ago. What option will I have when this de-evolution takes place? Simply stay with my current Touch Pro 2?

Uh...is there a story to these or what?

Apple iPad
This seems like a ridiculous device...but I'm sure Apple will be laughing all the way to the bank with it. No camera, usb, true multitasking, and you have to have addons that you purchase seperately just to get it as functional as any device currently on the market. What DOES it do? Has a big screen? Whoopie...

New Mass Effect 2 Character
We'll see if they handle it better than they did with BG1 to BG2, or BG2 to NWN (hah!). I mean...they have to, right?....RIGHT?

Just saw Avatar
I just saw it yesterday in 3D. It was pretty awesome, overall. Yes, the "message" was pretty obvious, but it didn't really interfere with my enjoyment of the movie. My question: What's up with the floating mountains? Gravity effect from the planet (I assume Pandora is actually a moon)?
