  1. Wow. That thing is a beast. More like Rockcrusher.
  2. That was one of the signs when I knew I had well and truly quit. Once cigarettes started smelling bad to me, and not enticing, I knew was free from their grasp. I do get occasional cravings, but not very often anymore.
  3. Man, how did I miss this thread until now? I quit cigarettes in 1999, but there's so many other smartass answers: White Owls. Crack rock. Big, fat cock. Sherm! ...and worst of all: Smokin Buds!
  4. I went to Landmark College in the mid-90s. It was at the time the only accredited institution in the United States that specifically taught students with learning disabilities (primarily dyslexia and ADD, which I have both.) When I entered in the fall of 1995, it was $32,000 a year. I have no idea what it is now, but I shudder to think. The main reason Landmark was so expensive is the salaries of the faculty, and they're not paid particularly well. When I was there, the student:teacher ratio was 2.5:1.
  5. I googled Silent Engine and count this. Most other hits mentioned a 550W supply, so it's probable that's the PSU you have. It should be quite sufficient to power the 8800GT.
  6. IAWTC. Billy has endured the wrath of both Tyll and Kevin Gilmore, which is not something I would wish on anybody. In spite of that, he's still here and bears no grudge. That is a testament to his character.
  7. I think most people came down on Gordon not because of the amp he owned, but because how responded: with infantile tantrums, ham-fisted condescension, and badly-veiled threats. There's at least one user on here who has the flagship (and therefore most-hated) RSA product, the B-52. He's not terribly active here, but there was a thread where some head-casers mocked his amp. He took the entire exchange in stride and responded in a good-natured manner. The motto of this place is "sorry about your thin skin" and that's not a joke. I disagree with ojnihs on one point, most new users do get hazed, to varying degrees. If you can get past the initial onslaught and show a bit of a clue (or at least willingness to learn) you may find you do okay here. Alternately, this place may be to acerbic for your liking.
  8. I noticed that the kitty, doghuh and sadcat are all 60 pixels on the larger side, so I made this one 60x55. I'm not sure the feeling of the pic is conveyed at such a small resolution. I'm going to try a tigher crop. That one's a bit better, but I'm not sure I'm sold on it. Thoughts?
  9. Nice pics. The first shot has a very "2001 monolith" feel to it.
  10. Wow. That last one is screaming to be captioned.
  11. *The above may not apply to n_maher who presumably meant to do that.
  12. In the relatively short time I've been on head-case, it has been my observation that you have a variety of rectal headwear. It's true, you do call out other people for their 'hattitude, but you seem to familiarize yourself with the concept through method acting. That said, I don't mean for a second to compare you to a troglodyte homunculus like Gordon.
  13. Late to the party, but with the somewhat huge caveat that I have never heard Darths (only stock 770s) I am willing to bet that the the TakeTs will completely pwn Darth Beyers in both bass impact and extension. I suspect the Darths have far more coloration sound, and it's quite possible that many will prefer this sound to the brutal analysis of the Fugs.
  14. EWW! You people are a bunch of sick psychopaths! ...actually, I think nearly everyone has that thought. Somewhere I saw a video of that crusher in action, but of course I can't find it now. What that .gif doesn't convey is how INCREDIBLY LOUD the grinder is. That said, anyone want a gummi lighthouse? [Kinda NSWF]
  15. When I tried it previously, nothing. I just logged out and back in again, and it appears to be working.
  16. 0_o I don't have a scanner currently, or I would.
  17. In time, she may grow into that nickname herself. ... JUST KIDDING, JUST KIDDING. PLZ STOP THROWING THIS AT ME!
  18. Opening up the case should be sufficient. The PSU in most PC cases is in the top back of the case. Its wattage output should be clearly labeled. If it's a good or even decent model, it should have amperage ratings on each output (12v rail, etc.) However, the PC PSU market is very crowded, and awash in absolute shit. Check what brand abd model PSU you have, post it here, and I might be able to give you some feedback on it. If you're going upgrade, there is only one brand to consider: PC Power and cooling. No fugly LEDs or transparent cases, and the just about the best design and construction of any PSU on the market. Miraculously, they're made in the USA. After an untimely power failure in 2006, I now use nothing but PCP&C PSUs (and APC UPSes.)
  19. Cool. I have a friend who owns a DVD rental store, I have to browbeat him into buying this series.
