  1. Start a thread onnit, should liven up the tech section a bit. Did halfway consider seeing if my MSI Z77A-GD65 mobo could fit in my T5274 case but even if it could it'd be crammed tight. I'm glad I got the mobo when I did. Apparently now hard to find, alone. It was a recommendation by PC Gamer mag. It has an easy OC option. Not sure I want to mess with it too long, though. 3.4Ghz seems fine to me. My wallet is tighter than a dolhpin's ass end right now cuz I'm nearly $2k in the hole. Probably gonna be payin' that $h!t off for the whole year.

  2. I have now. Will keep it in mind! Thanks!

  3. Just discovered cleverbot. All it seems to want to do is compulsively lie to me, change subjects and I find it really creepy it tracks my youtube history to see I like VG music and proceed to half-assedly insult me for it.

  4. Just chillin'. Going through my paper crap, finally forcing myself to make better use of that file cabinet.

  5. I figured make a thread about it at first in ahto but realized people who give a sh*t are in KC. Looked for relevant thread, popped in for a sec and posted. That's about all I care.

  6. Actually right after I asked that and logged off I remembered him shouting "You cock suckerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!" *thanks to the doppler effect*

     

    Is that a sign I should change my av? :dev9:

  7. I recall you liked Tomb Raider. Not sure if you like Street Fighter but at 22 Seconds, I think you'll like the mod. ;) Never thought about it but Cammy was a perfect choice. Accent, physique, hair, attitude and all.

     

  8. Tech Discussion. I'd be very much interested in your input when you have the time. :D

  9. *poke-poke* Still breathing, or should I call the morgue? :devsmoke:

  10. I'm haunting you!!!

     

    (If you get the reference.)

  11. "I'm still waiting for the whole social/mobile bubble to burst."

     

    When do you predict that will come to a head? I'm going to say 5-12 years as trends typically go.

  12. Crap. Yeah some stuff I want to do requires mesh edits, uv mapping and model tweaks.

  13. What I am wondering about probably requires some kind of UV mapping I'm guessing.

  14. Funny that, I actually have that mod. :dev9:

  15. Take great care if you do. :)

  16. Got a provisional when most others in my grade already had licenses and cars. I took until I was almost 18. I was a month and a half shy of 18 when I got my license. So 17 and a half for permit.

     

    The first time you go 100mph will be unforgettable.

  17. Here we go again. :roleyess:

     

    What does Marcellus Wallace look like?

  18. It's a cutout of Jim Carrey in the SNL spoof of 'what is love' night at the roxbury.

     

    It resembles troll face.

  19. Figured it's been a few months. I should do something suitably new and yet still of my stature.

  20. Just 1:1, 120VAC in and out. For the setup I'm looking at the iso would be typically used as part of an AC test fixture with lightbulb ballast and my ~3A variac. I think one transformer I have is 8-9A, and the other is 10.5A (a little bigger than microwave oven transformers).

     

    I actually tried reworking a MOT as an iso by winding a secondary but it ran out of space for more turns and I only got 90VAC. So unwound it and it's now just sitting there looking for a use. Mini-Arc welder has crossed my mind but the only wire I have are 10awg and 8awg and I'm just not sure how I'd control it.

  21. Yeah I want to play TOR. On the fence about if I want to buy a mobo for my eMachines 5274 case for a new machine or if I want to make a completely custom beast.

     

    Got me some work as a automotive tech assistant on saturdays. So my plans for saving up $$$ is accelerated.

     

    ATM am trying to make my home workshop...a workshop again. So I can get back into physical hacks and stuff.

     

    Last but not least, it's sort of rocky but there might be a chance to get a steal of a deal on a house. It'd be my first house. Fixer-upper to be sure but I know enough from construction and home improvement that I can probably fix most of it myself.

  22. Thanks bro. Oh and I think I finally found an o-scope I want. Tektronix 465. I was going to go for the one at carl's electronics but this looks like it'd be potentially a better deal. Also, do power transformers in stereos make for suitable iso transformers in the long run?

  23. Ah. I's just wondering. I go to xat chat occasionally but it's dead in there.

     

    What stuff you been up to lately?

  24. What was that mini computer, home theater you recommended? I just discovered NCIX not too long ago to add to newegg, tiger, and them.
