    Microsoft: We don't need no stinkin' Blu-ray

    Well DD is definitely working out for Apple. You can't even buy a Mac with a Blu-Ray drive IIRC. I think the success of Netflix shows that consumers don't really care about 40mbps 1080p 5.1 DTS content vs. streaming.

    Who to draft with #1 overall pick in FFL?

    Chris Johnson won my fantasy league last year when I picked him 7th IIRC. There is no other choice for #1 pick.

    anyone play LotRO?

    I played up till the Moria expansion, had a level 50 Burgler. I found that it is pretty easy to solo with a Burg, especially since you can be invisible and sneak into most places without a fight. Even if you get into a poor situation, you have a skill that automatically makes you invisible and...

    LeBron James is a Douche.

    lol. Lebron is the best basketball player in the NBA right now. Have people forgotten how Michael Jordan was the biggest douche when he was on the court in his time? Not to mention how much Kobe used to bitch about his teammates?

    Pizza Hut 10 dollar pizzas....No matter what is on it

    Really? I think Pagliacci's pretty meh, and we have 2 of them on campus. The one in Bellevue is better, but IMO its not leaps and bounds better than Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut isn't the greatest pizza, but for 15$ I got a large pan pizza and breadsticks, plenty of food for the 3 of us and it tasted...

    New build for parents

    Hey guys, my parents want to build them a new computer and I've been out of the loop for a while. My understanding is that I can either go AM3 or P55 (don't really need X58 for the parents), and I would need a rock-solid, trouble free mobo for either route. Everything but the CPU/Mobo/Ram has...

    ********BORDERLANDS discussion thread*******

    I have been playing for the past week, and its a pretty awesome game. I'm curious, what kind of performance has everyone been getting from the game? I feel like my 4850 should be able to run it on max settings, but I'm getting low fps.

    Is it just me, or has cable HD quality seriously declined?

    Heroes of Newerth beta keys

    I don't think the game itself is unbalanced as the player base is. It seems like the playerbase is divided into DOTA pros and noobs (such as myself). I love the game, but almost every other noob game I join there is an experienced DOTA player or two that absolutely destroys everyone. Kind of...

    Trying to keep myself interested in learning web design

    All you need is Textpad to start out with. On the Mac side, Smultron and Coda are awesome. I didn't get into Web Dev until I took a class and was "forced" to learn. Maybe that would help?

    Benefits of Flash for a widget?

    Well my intent was that the anybody should be able to attach a <script> tag to their website and get the widget. Now if the src of the script tag was a javascript file on my server, I can easily load up the html/etc, or the src can be a webservice which outputs the javascript code. I'm not too...

    This is for public sites, anybody should be able to put this on their website. That also means I need to find a way around Ajax due to the cross domain issues. Isn't flash more or less installed on every computer?
