I laughed at the chacaron part, and again at the "Look at my horse" part. Otherwise, I wanted to punch myself in the face.

Just to use this song. Such a sick beat from Prodigy.

Subsequently, this may be top 5 for worst/weirdest video ever made.

...have this song stuck in your head. I swear it's been three days since I watched Pineapple Express, and this is still playing on a loop in my head. Join my insanity!!!

She can fly into my danger zone. I would let her clean my popsicle stand. I'd put some beef in that taco. In other words, I would do all of your half Aunt. Peaness.

Best. Interview. Ever. -
Maybe the coolest thing I've seen in years.

Yes, that company Lytro is the one who developed the camera. They are currently taking reservations for people interested in purchasing them, but I would imagine it is rather expensive. -
Okay so if you are aware of how cameras work, or even if you aren't here is a small explanation. In layman's terms, the lens opens up, allowing light to come through and be "burned" onto either film or a digital memory card, thus creating the picture you see later. This technology has pretty much stayed unchanged for the past 400 years. You get the image you take, and have been "stuck" to how it turned out with limited abilities to edit it later. Until now. http://www.lytro.com/picture_gallery This new technology has a completely new take on what we know about cameras. It takes pictures with a light field sensor, capturing all of the light it sees, allowing infinite re-focusing of the picture later on. Just go through the gallery and click on different places in the pictures. No that isn't a computer program changing the focus, it is actual pictures captured with this new technology. Pretty damn awesome if you ask me.

Sadly, I remember when this aired live on TV and I stood amazed with my brother as we held our hands on the TV... Damn I hate being old.

Give me admin, I'll ban those sorry fuckers. -
Just an FYI... For those of you interested in playing, I have created a 1st MRB Group. When you login, go to the "Groups" tab, and search for "1st Marine Raiders". Groups allow us to create a season for any number of weeks, in which we can create tournaments for our group. Join up!!

Engle and I played a few rounds together. I signed up for a month for 5 bucks. All courses are free. Plus you get a set of Taylor Made clubs that add quite a bit of distance and power to your stats. He bought 1,000 in game coins for like 5 bucks. Either way works I guess. It was fun listening to him freak out.
-
Added you. I'm trying to figure out this green fee system.
-
Like 24 courses in total. Each time you play it costs you green fees, their version of online currency. I think you get like 5 green fees each time you play a full round or something, idk, I only played one round at Pebble Beach so far. It has a pretty extensive achievement system, stats tracking, ranking lists, equipment you can buy, etc etc, pretty fun so far. Then again, I have almost every Tiger Woods game ever made.
-
So yeah, since I'm limited in what I can play, I started looking for a good online game to play, and ran into Tiger Woods Online. I'm not sure how I've never known about this, but anyways, come play, if you like golf that is. http://tigerwoodsonline.ea.com/ My username is AllenFord79, add me. Oh yeah, it's free.

Oh, and I told my buddy he now owes me a new copy of Band of Brothers, and his kid needs an ass whooping. -

Problem solved. I spent about an hour today on the phone with eVga, awesome tech support btw. My IDE controller had a bad SATA port. It was SATA port 6, which I wasn't even using, but it was causing problems with the other 5. My hard drives were randomly disappearing, which was causing the strange hiccups in my system. uTorrent was trying to download the files to my F drive, and everytime the drive disappeared, it caused the semaphore timeout error. My system would freeze until it recovered the drive, and then go back to normal. I went through all three drives, plugging them into each sata port and restarting to see what happened. It didn't recognize anything that was plugged into port 6. Sadly, it corrupted my SSD so I need to get a new one. Thank god for extended warranties eh? eVga shipped me a new MOBO and when it gets here I can send the old one back free of charge. So now I sit here on my crappy laptop. The most graphics intense game this thing can handle is freecell. Oh well, thanks for the help guys. -

Should probably also mention I'm using uTorrent. Oh, and in a new development, my nvidia display driver just recovered from an unexpected error. Screen went black for about 30 seconds, then switched through all the input channels, finally settling on the HDMI channel. This is odd, since I ran a 12 hour stress test on my card last night without a single hiccup. It's an eVga GTX 590 if that helps. IDK, I'm about to give up on it since it only seems to happen with this file and uTorrent. PC is running like a champ now that I closed uTorrent. On a different note, Nvidia just released a new set of drivers on the 11th I believe. For those of you playing Portal 2, I gained about a 12% fps boost with the new drivers, go check em out. -
This one is a lil' tricky, good luck. A while back I purchased Band of Brothers on BluRay. I let a friend borrow it, his son literally destroyed the disc 1. When I say destroyed, I mean destroyed. It was in several pieces. So, I went surfing the net and found a torrent for the 1080p version, started the download which is like 45GB, left it running while I went to work. I get home, to find the torrent is sitting at 96.3% and there is an error message in my system tray: ERROR: Semaphore timeout period has expired. The torrent cannot be downloaded. I clicked resume, the transfer started up again, and stopped about a minute later: ERROR: Semaphore timeout period has expired. The torrent cannot be downloaded. Rinse, repeat, about 15 times. Then, things get fun. Now, I get random freezes, for 5 - 10 seconds. It's like my CPU is trying to catch it's breath, so everything freezes, my mouse, keyboard, everything. Then, it just goes back to normal. Naturally I freaked out. I searched and scoured looking for resolutions to this problem. So far i have: Restored to an earlier system restore point. Flashed my BIOS Installed new Video, Ethernet, and Sound Drivers for the hell of it. Flashed my Hard Drives. Ran a Memory stress test. Did a full system scan including the files I was downloading. Did a full system stress test to check for any failing devices. Reset my modem about umpteen thousand times. Nothing. No errors, no failing devices, all drivers up to date and functioning normally. Now I should mention, my PC only freezes when I'm trying to finish this stupid torrent, which is now at 98.7%, and I don't want to start over. When it freezes, I get the error message again, and have to resume the torrent. It has frozen about 35 times in the time it has taken me to type this. Any help would be appreciated, since I don't even know what a semaphore is in the first place. HELP ME!!!
