Triop Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Today I got trending on Reddit I hate the "like" system, but it's nice to know when people like your work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda's performance in T1 was not special, but she made up for it in 2. Lena is consistently good. Arnie is getting old, though, especially since he's supposed to be a robot and all. CGI to the rescue, I suppose? I concur. Sara Connor Chronicles was excellent television. (So, of course, it was cancelled.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delay Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) I just discovered this and It's easily one of the most fascinating poems I've ever read. I really don't know what else to say about it. Just read it. I can imagine it's very difficult to come up with something like this. Edited April 7, 2019 by Delay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Though the old Bethesda's Terminator Future Shock has a little primitive textures (not the models of various terminators!), it was absolutely terminating for me in its times. It was almost a meditation, like in HalfLife-1. Spoiler When Bethesda had released Fallout 3, I got almost a flashback, it was looking so familiar...

Shpaget Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Why only six flags? Why not eight? Or eleven? Eleven is a fun number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the company started as Six Flags Over Texas, referring to the six national flags1 that have flown over the state. It has since expanded outside of Texas, but kept the name. 1Those being Spain, France, Mexico, Texas, USA, and CSA.

LordFerret Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Being Spring has sprung, I put the bird feeder back up on the porch today. It was an absolute mob scene, at least 8 different species showed up. It was also humorous, watching as the squirrels sat below intently looking up and all around ... you could see them thinking ... trying to figure out a way to get to it.

Geonovast Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Last week I got a free Vista-era laptop. Pentium T4200, 3GB DDR2, and a 250GB spinnydisk. It's actually rather clean, although it was soooooo slow. Originally Vista, but had been upgraded to Windows 7. Absolute dog, even though there wasn't much installed on it. So I wiped it and through Mint/Mate on, and it ran.. better-ish. Given how it's sluggish, I'm targeting the HDD as the culprit. I snagged a new 120GB SSD for a few bucks, will be putting that in today. I figured I'd also pop the main bottom panel off and have a look at everything and see if it needed to be blown out. This is SO COOL. WHY DON'T THEY MAKE LAPPIES LIKE THIS ANYMORE? The entire CPU heatsink is removable with just 4 screws after the panel is off. Replacing thermal paste and blowing out the fins would be nothing on this machine. Remember when laptop manufacturers actually cared about maintenance? I do. If you're lucky nowadays, you'll get a panel to the storage drive and maybe the ram. So now I'm shopping for a somewhat decent Core 2 Duo to throw in this thing, and I'll get another gig of ram for it. It needs a new battery too (holds literally no charge), but I'm not sure if I'll bother with that. Should make a decent Facebook/whatever machine for someone. Edit: Whelp, so much for that. Even with installing the most current BIOS for this dinosaur, it still won't detect the brand new SSD. Not throwing any more money into this thing. Edit Edit: Thanks to this post page thing, I discovered the alignment problem! Sees the SSD now! Edited April 8, 2019 by Geonovast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDJ Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I got home. Fixed a toilet my eldest daughter broke (accidentally of course) Wasn't bad. At least she cleaned it before I got to it.

Considering the first Terminator movie is 35 years old (I believe it came out in 1984) they're not doing too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delay Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Mom's laptop died. Probably hard drive failure. We connected it to a PC and it doesn't show up. Edit: It's definitely hard drive failure. Well, now I have something I can disassemble! Edited April 11, 2019 by Delay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
