Cooling Solutions / Opinions on Thermal Compounds
« on: April 16, 2013, 10:46:06 AM »
Hello peeps, just purchased a CPU cooler on newegg this morning, but not yet decided on purchasing (if any) separate thermal compounds.

Reviews and opinions on other tech forums are fine and all but because I may be lugging my future build back and forth between Trinidad and Canada for a few months till I settle back down somewhere I'm looking for opinions on those that perform well at home in that clime. More likely than not I will be running it in an A/C room, but I just wanna do the thorough checking thing and have it out one time.

Here's the cooler I went with:

Sick Sad World / Son kills mom over Playstation. (Philadelphia)
« on: February 15, 2011, 07:38:12 PM »

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/breaking/116241209.html?c=r

When her 16-year-old son got into trouble last November, Rashida Anderson responded with punishment - she took away Kendall's PlayStation.

That proved fatal.

Following a 90-minute argument the day after Thanksgiving, police allege, Kendall went into his sleeping mother's bedroom, hit her 20 times with a claw hammer and ultimately killed her.

Trading Grounds / FS: Toshiba Qosmio F60 *Tentative*
« on: January 02, 2011, 03:35:33 PM »
I am going to decide by the end of today if this is going to be sold for sure.

I am in need of some cash and for the next 6 months at least any time dedicated to gaming is off the menu for a while. Bought in February 2010, and therefore still under warranty.

Full Specs here:

I would like to say $5500. If I don't get an update by tonight, I'll remove this post.

We know that Tekken 6 is coming to PSP already but I'm not sure how many of us know that the PSP is also getting Namco's other fighter. Looks like it'll be a "revamp" of 4 with added goodies. I can't say I didn't almost scream like a little girl when I saw...well check it out:

Ole Talk / April Fools thread 2009
« on: March 31, 2009, 11:08:41 PM »
So I was thinkin that it might be a good-ish idea to make a thread listing all the April Fools-related things one might come across this year.

The first one I think that may be a potential AF prank is the changing of Tokyo Toshokan, the bittorrent library from english to madarin.

So I'm sure a few of you might have heard about this little backwater developer called Infinity Ward, some of you might be acquainted with one of their titles, Call of Duty.  :icon_pirat:

They've set up a suggestion box for things that you'd like to see in the next installment in the franchise.

PC Gaming / Battlefield Heroes - New Beta signup starts today.

Some of you might already know about this, but I didn't see a thread on it so...

    * Battlefield Heroes™ is a brand new Play 4 Free game from the people that brought you the multi-million selling Battlefield 1942™ and Battlefield 2™.
    * It's a fun cartoon-style shooter which caters to players of all skill levels – easy to pick up and play, but with deep character development.
    * It will be released for the PC as a free download.

Doesn't sound, or look, too bad. Might apply for a key in a bit. It makes me think of a Toy Story/Small Soldiers hybrid.

Game based on the movie Wanted from earlier this year, you may have heard of it lol. Looks pretty sick, it's due out sometime in 2009. And yes, you can bend bullets. I hope they take some cues from Resident Evil 4 and the game based on the Bourne movies. Sequel to the movie in the works maybe? Fingers crossed this doesn't suck.

So the opportunity to upgrade has presented itself. My cousin needs a laptop and I thinkin of passin this one along and gettin one of these two here. the reason why is I didn't get the approval to do this from the higher authority so i need to get one that loooks pretty similar. On a side note, what's good to clean the surfaces of a laptop?

Hardware, Tweaking & Networking / Ok. Help.
« on: September 24, 2007, 03:07:11 PM »
Ok, so i've moved away to canada a while now, and each room in the residence of the college i'm in is supplied with free hi-speed internet access. however, Torrents, P2P clients, and TCP/IP connections through games from home to here don't seem to work. I've tried using Hamachi for the games, followed all their Vista troubleshooting tips etc., and am still left with no results. Help?

(This  hasn't stopped me from downloading (as of today) 26 GB of anime from August 26th...Sigh thank you DDL + Flashget)

Anime / Darker than Black
« on: September 16, 2007, 12:01:39 PM »
Started watchin this around the same time as Claymore, 22 episodes out already. The main character is a real boss IMO, and not the standard 'starts weak, gets ridiculously powerful in 2 episodes' kind of thing. Worth a look.

Quote
Ten years ago, an inscrutable and abnormal territory known as Hell's Gate appeared in Tokyo and altered the sky and decimated the landscape. The heavenly bodies disappeared, replaced by false stars. At the same time, people who possess various special abilities emerged. Kept secret from the knowledge of the masses, these individuals, known as Contractors, are able to murder in cold blood. Various nations around the world use Contractors as spies and agents, often resulting in violent battles for information. Each fake star has a corresponding contractor, and they vibrate when their contractor's power is being used. As such, contractors are usually identified by their star's Messier Code. However, their abilities are gained at the edge of their humanity. They lack human emotions, especially aversion to killing. Contractors usually work for one of various rival Syndicates as spies and assassins, although the ultimate purpose of the Syndicates is unknown.

The story follows a team of two contractors, one doll, and one human on their missions for a mysterious Syndicate. Story lines are generally two episodes long.
