I just found out that I personally studie much easier when I'm a bit stoned, as it elliminates all the distractions around me, since I can only focus on one thing at a time when I'm stoned.
And that one thing can be a textbook if I want it to be.

Hell, is an half-filled auditorium

Found this:

From a little book called "Disorder in the Court." They're things people actually said in court, word for word.
Includes the following exchange that nearly made me weep with laughter:
Q: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?
A: No.
Q: Did you check for blood pressure?
A: No.
Q: Did you check for breathing?
A: No.
Q: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?
A: No.
Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.
Q: But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?
A: It is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere.

I found the game s.t.a.l.k.e.r. in the shops today, bought it, and it's great.
It's missing some minor elements and my pc can't run it very smoothly on anything but low settings, but even then it's still nice.

There are just too many big letters in different fonts on one and the same website for this to be real. I love how they also have to make these scams sound "too good to be true" times 100.

What the Snarkpitters listen to!

Yeah well I still like to check.

A few years back they had free worldwide phone use via the net connection.

Well, I used the nationwide part, I cannot confirm the worldwide part but the point is, sometimes these scammy type things are real.

I made a s**tload of calls for free.

Oh it looks so fake... I'm in the joost waiting list, which looks much more serious. A site that has links to multiple other sites that are nearly identical is suspicious to me.

the only setback is that you'll have to take your tests stoned though, you have to be in the same state of mind to regurgitate information that you learned it in, so says psycology

Why snark works.

Ouch, sorry to hear it happened to you Natus, seems to be a common one :sad: I'm half-considering sending back my 360, as the disc drive seems to like sticking and it often takes 5 or 6 presses before it actually pops out rather than just making a jamming sound. Its not a terrible problem, but I don't look forward to the day where I spend 30 minutes trying to change games! Also used to get a fair number of dirty disc errors, although I've not had one of those in months now, which is sort of good but sort of worrying. If it had gotten more common I would have sent the unit back ages ago, but now the problem appears to be gone and I'm running out of warranty period. What to do, what to do...

Must really suck when problems start to appear, especially on such a new and expensive console. One thing I've always loved about consoles is how stable and reliable they are. They games you buy will run and everything will work as it's supposed to. I'd hate to see this kind of problems with the future consoles. :sad:

Recently fount out that you do NOT remove these two files from your C: drive when you are cleaning house and deleting stuff to make room.

Hah, lessons learned the hard way?

I hope to tell'ya.

Wasn't real hard to fix, assuming you have another pc but it sure through me for a loop when my machine failed to bootup.

If it does happen to anyone, just hook your hard drive as a slave and replace the two files onto C:

It will find them and boot for you, then you can replace the old ones back from the recycle bin.

My motherboard has a similar design but it has fans to pull the heat away from the northbridge

for some reason i dont think heat next to the proccesor is good

either way that thing looks pretty nice

this is my board for reference

You can only if you have the correct equipment though. Its not like you can just pop in two and proceed to greatness. :biggrin:

As far as I know, you can only do it with PCI-E\SLI or somesuch.

---

The best things in life, aren't things.

For Nvidia you need two of the same model cards and a board with an SLI chipset and two PCI express 16x slots. For ATI you need a regular card and a 'Crossfire Edition' card of the same numbering, plus a crossfire chipset motherboard with two PCI express 16x slots.

I think a new revision of SLI is in the works that allows you to use any SLI compatible card. The example I saw was something like two 7900's for graphics and a 6800 or 7600 or something for physics.

Nifty stuff.
