  1. As much as I enjoy the features of the new iOS, the browser is terrible. The address bar is tired. Going back to SkyFire.

      Doesn't sound like much, but it was the tipping point

      I use Chrome only because my bookmarks from my desktop carry over.

      That seems like the oddest reason to dislike a mobile browser. Why do you need to know the exact URL? It can only display so much information in that space. Considering how crippled third party browsers are on iOS I don't know why people bothered unless they're jailbroken.

  2. The fuck? http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Latest-News-Wires/2013/0921/U-of-Alabama-ends-whites-only-sororities Damn it, Alabama! What is taking you so long to pull your head out of your ass!?!
  3. Surprise Nvidia partnership? Makes good sense the more I think about it, and what Dean mentioned. I would think that the only sticking part would be negotiating the Shield running Jelly Bean. But, not a deal breaker, as it's not the hottest thing on the market.
  4. GameStop is the most crowded I've seen since Black Friday.

      Oh, I didnt go to the midnight release, thats gay. I went the next day. I live in the poor part of town, so the GS I go to is always full of browns. The point is that most of the time there's only one cashier when they should have 2. I assume the guy in the back is the manager or something. The place is a shithole either way. The main reason I went to is to reserve the special edition of Beyond.

      If only 2 people were working there might be a policy where only one can be on the register at a time because the other person would need to deal with everything else.

  5. It's hard to beat a team that good. He's got Cam going against Buffalo and a defense going against the Jets. That Thursday night game has major implications to your game.
  6. If you have a better option on your bench than Antonio Brown, go for it. Cleveland has a decent D and Pittsburg is shitty with no hope in site. Or, click on "Players" and on "Player List". Filter to see WRs. Sort by Fantasy Points and start reading the bio for each of the higher scorers season-to-date. You have a nice underrated tight end (and so does your team, lol). He should be rated higher by Yahoo!, but they have their own f'd up system of rankings. Other than that, you have a quality team. So does Lame's Team. Hopefully, Eric Decker has another shitty week.
  7. Soccer: US qualifies. I must admit: I kinda care. When I was a kid, you either rooted for Germany or Argentina.

      A team that beat Canada.

      In order of preference I will support the US, then the UK, then Germany, and then just kinda whoever I've decided I like for whatever reasons.

      I've been a Germany fan since I went there in 2006, so they're my team, as bandwagony as it sounds, but as a fan of Seattle's MLS team I want to see the US team do well next year simply so the sport gets bigger here.

  8. Unless it's a large size sunflower, the amount of time you will spend harvesting, washing, drying and roasting might not be worth the effort (very tiny seeds will give you almost nothing). Other than that, roast and eat up! After cleaning them, of course. Roasting bird poop isn't a tasty food snack.
  9. That's solid. Gronk should be back soon. Brady had a very un-Bradylike day today, but he should come around to the stud he is. The public league I am playing on the side has Peyton Manning AND AP! I killed it this week. My focal league went to hell straight out the gate. Chris Ivory didn't do shit. But, he is on the Jets. I should have expected that. With the way we built the scoring, I lost that league game.
  10. Prediction: My Chiefs at about 6 wins. So, yeah. I have Peyton as my starting QB in one of my leagues. The potential for me to shit talk to my opponents is amazing. It's hard to root for him and still root against that whole team, though. Also: Madbass, what's your teams line up? And how many teams are in your league?
  11. Hell, yeah, we will help. I have 2 fantasy teams right now. Keeping it slow this year. And don't listen to what Yahoo! says about who had the best draft. That is based on the stats from last year and not the expectations of this year. So, you can draft someone with a broken leg, and it will tell you how wonderful your balls smell.
  12. Murphy's' old lady had been pregnant for some time and now the time had come. He brought her to the doctor and the doctor began to deliver the baby. She had a little boy, and the doctor looked over at Murphy and said. 'Hey, Murph! You just had you a son,! 'Ain't dat grand, !!' Murphy got excited by this, but just then the doctor spoke up and said, 'Hold on! We ain't finished yet, !' The doctor then delivered a little girl. He said, 'Hey, Murph! You got you a daughter, !!!! She is a pretty lil ting, too....' Murphy got kind of puzzled by this and then the doctor said, 'Hold on, we aint got done yet, !' The doctor then delivered another boy and said, 'Murph, you just had yourself another boy, !' Murphy said to the doctor, 'Doc, what caused all of dem babies,?' The doctor said, 'You never know Murph, it was probably something that happened during conception.' Murphy said, 'Ah yeah, during conception.' When Murph and his wife went home with their three children, he sat down with his wife and said, 'Mama, you remember dat night that we ran out of Vaseline and we had to use dat dere 3-in-1 Oil.' She said, 'Yeah, I remember dat night...' Murph said, 'I'll tell you, it's a bloody good ting we didn't use WD-40.
  13. On signing Brady Quinn to the Jets: "No, just no. Being a Jets fan is like being a chick in a lifetime movie. You want to leave, and you keep getting gut punched, but your husband keeps telling you that everything will be alright, and you stay like an idiot." Best damn thing I've read all day.
  14. Lower back. It's classy that way.
  15. In case I haven't posted before, allow me to introduce the sludge that will keep you awake all night: http://www.ednascoffee.com/ Only use the regular, as everything else is weak, like a regular cup of coffee. Now, the instructions on this are relatively correct. However, there are some modifications you want to make, as the instructions are not quite clear. I will translate these into how they should be from the original posted on the website. Dump one teaspoon (becareful not to level or measure, just lift and pour without thinking) of Edna's coffee into a "coffee pot", like the one shown way below. This is going directly onto the stove top, so it should be in this fashion. Add one teaspoon of sugar. Again, no measuring. Get a small coffee cup, about 3 to 4 ounces. Fill with water and dump into the pot. Add just a smidge more water, like a half an ounce or less. Put on the stove on high. Watch it. The second it starts to bubble up, turn off the heat and remove quickly. It will boil over and make a mess. Pour back into the small cup with a saucer on the bottom, as you will fill the cup all the way to the rim (to do it properly). Let sit for a minute or two, as the sludge/grounds will rest at the bottom of the cup, in addition to cooling. Sip or drink slowly. Do not finish all the way, as the sludge at the bottom is not good eats. Enjoy your Turkish coffee.
  16. I thought the VMAs were much better this year than in the past few. The performers were at their best (minus Miley Cyrus, as that should go without saying). In fact, I'm watching it again to see Bruno Mars and Justin Timberlakes performances. And, thanks to Miley, there are kinds of crazy memes being generated which make fun of her, and all are quite deserved. It was horrible.
  17. Google is going to test out Project Loon in the Central Valley of California. No word yet as to where in the valley, as it extends a couple hundred miles south to north. I might be interested in this... https://plus.google.com/+ProjectLoon/posts/B2gv6QNi6mx#+ProjectLoon/posts/B2gv6QNi6mx
  18. I saw this video at GS last week and I thought it looked insanely fun. A couple of reviews call it fun, but the controls have some issues. It's the first game I saw that made me even think about getting a WiiU.
  19. Another rumor was that FIFA 14 would come free with the XBone. I only know one person IRL who has bought a FIFA title, so I assume this is not to capture the US market.
  20. I'd much prefer a spanking. Spank me! SPANK ME! No takers? Anyone? Okay. Then, let me turn this into an FB post to possibly distract from the real issue:
  21. Well, ain't that craptastic. Damn. Pardon my erroneous post.
  22. Plants vs Zombies 2 is free today for iOS devices. Downloading it right now.
  23. I dislike the black box look. It's so bland. Reminds me of modular furniture or bad art-deco. You are going to put together a machine, make it look like an 80's movie special effect as best you can, like you'd see at QuakeCon. Way more of a conversation piece . And those brands would be { }?
  24. I have some LEDs, but not enough to light up the room yet. And how did you know I like CEC's? And, since this is "PCs for dummies", for which I fall into the category of rookie/n00b/beginner, what is bad about that power supply, aside from the rainbow theme? I checked out the capabilities and everything looked okay. The manufacturer is Super Flower. Is there anything missing? I want to add more power to my tower eventually, so this seemed to be a viable option.
  25. I love the LED lights in my case (my simple mind is drawn to pretty lights). But, what I really want, because I love the pretty things, is this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182239 There is also an 800w version, which is plenty of power for me. I'll probably buy this in November.
