No, and I don't give a fuck either. I'm out here building a fence, diggin' holes and breaking up old concrete and shit and for what? People can just climb the fence. Then I gotta go up and fix the carport so rain stops getting through. And I have to spend all week cutting down bamboo that the people next door planted(It's all over the fucking neighborhood). WHAT CANT THE CUT IT DOWN? WHY!?

Every fuck year too. I'm tired of cutting down bamboo for it to grow back twelve times as much the next week. So I plan on getting a ton of make your own concrete and maybe some salt to just blanket this shit so it never comes back. I thought about burning it down but after a few controlled tests in other yards, bamboo isn't the best thing to set on fire.

I have blisters, my skin is as red as a coke ban, I have cuts all along my legs, my pants are covered in cement dust and dirt(so it looks like I have rich people pants) AND FOR WHAT? A fucking PlayStation 3. It better be real nice too, or I'm going to fucking rage.

Whoa he didn't ask for your life story buddy

Yeah, this is the PS3 (2/1 & PC) HRAP. They finally restocked at arcade shock (MSRP!), will probably throw some seimitsu or sanwa buttons on it in a few weeks.

OMG somebody else here knows about Major Lazer. The album already leaked on Usenet and I've been listening to it for most of the day. I'm gonna order it off of Amazon since it doesn't seem like any stores around here are going to get it. I even checked all the local Best Buys at work today but none of them were getting any shipments.

EDIT: Well damn. It looks like a 320 kB/s rip is up on Demonoid now. That's better than the rip from Usenet.

That song didn't make it to the Major Lazer album though. I guess Andy is claiming it? Oh well, it's not that bad of a song. If it didn't have a filter on his voice I probably wouldn't be able to stand it though.

They have the usual GEL silicone compound in the sole but I'm not sure if that's when you're referring to.  Otherwise there might be a new Asics design I'm not aware of?

I'd try to find a link or something but I'm lazy. Basically, there was a jelly like substance between the two layers of the bottom. It felt like poking one of those gel candles. I tried them on, but they were like $250 or something, and looked like they wouldn't last. They were awesome though. Imagine airmax if it was um, filled with jello. That you could touch.

Who cares. The 3000 can be hacked now and plays pirated games. Go for it. The Rock Band bundle comes with firmware 5.02 so all you have to do is download firmware 5.03 then get ChickHEN on there and then either Gen-A or CustomFirmwareEnabler and you're good to go. I say go for it. I'm hacking mine now.

I'm looking forward to having a portable PS1 and finally being able to play SNES games on the go in a decent resolution (the Nintendo DS' emulation for SNES games is shoddy).

Most of the nay-sayers on the PSP3000 are only against it because at the time you couldn't hack it. Now that you can, I don't see anything wrong with it. The scanlines are on the PSP3000 but are supposedly not very noticeable.

I got the Rock Band PSP 3000 bundle.

The PSP 3000 is really nice.  A lot of the changes are hard to appreciate if someone explains it to you.  The controls all feel a lot better than on my 2000.  The rounded edges make it even more comfortable to use (except when using the analog nub, which is still awkward).  The screen seems a lot better than the 2000.  Some people have said the scanlines aren't noticeable unless you look for them, but I noticed them right away.  It isn't big deal at all and the significantly less ghosting plus better colors/contrast are worth it.

and just because it's Sony and there has to be something stupid, the system comes with with firmware 5.02 and a half charged battery.  I put in Rock Band to play, but it requires 5.03...ok, stupid, but whatever.  I try to update and it won't let me because the battery isn't fully charged.

The firmware you hack it at is actually 5.03 which is what you should've updated to with Rock Band Unplugged. <3

I can't believe you bought a pair of Diesel jeans dude. I tried on a pair recently and they were awesome, but when I realized that the price tag I was looking at was for THE BELT, and checked out the actual price....my enthusiasm cooled real fast :lol

the pic above was taken with no messing whatsoever, beyond setting it to the 'Sports' preset. point and click. Kinda ridiculous. I hadn't even opened the manual at the time.

That's awesome, dslrs seem super epic and intimidating whenever I look at them, pick them up, etc., but if they take pictures like that without any fucking around, I'm in.

And Diesel jeans are the best! I look at them as investments, because they're practically indestructible compared to other jeans in that price range and they fit me pretty well at that.

The downside is that you need (at least) 4 dolphins.

Here are the jeans I tried. I wasn't gonna buy them but I at least wanted to try them and take a pic! It's true, they fit like angel skin. But they were 37,000yen! Jesus wept! I just couldn't do it. Zara is as high-post as I get.

37000 yenners comes to...$386ish US! Holy shit, no wonder you didn't want to buy them-- Diesels usually retail in the States for no more than $250, and usually closer to the $185-230 area ($99 if you get them out of season or on sale :hyper). Did you try them on at a Diesel store (Tokyo price inflation ftl) or some boutique that marks shit up way too high?

it was at a Diesel store, at Tokyo Midtown. Where everything is expensive. I saw camo shorts for $250 :lol

if the sizes are reasonably consistent, i guess i could just go for a fitting session then order online from the US?

That would definitely work... From my experience the sizes are pretty consistent too-- every pair I own is the same size, at least.

$250 camo shorts seem to be a Tokyo staple.  I think my friend actually bought a pair my first round out there in Harajuku or something, but they were stolen at Club Sega. Oh noes!

Went and picked up a new PC for work after the old one bit the bullet. I get to spend the night re-installing all the programs. Blergh.

To think there was a time when I adored doing such things like reformatting and the like.

Grocery shopping.

I have yet to tap into my bonus yet.  I've been /)(\ close to getting a PSP.  Only thing holding me back is that I want to buy a game for it and don't feel like buying one for $40 or peeling off GameStop's stupid and shitty stickers.  That and the 360 occasionally reads discs so I play some games from time to time.

13" Macbook Pro 2.53Ghz....because I'm a whore like that.  Actually, getting ready to move and thought that having a laptop would make more sense in an apartment.  This fucking time I bought AppleCare.

360 Arcade....replaced my elite that went belly up on Father's Day  :( . I know I can get a replacement but I bought an elite the first week it was out and mine was loud and noisy....new arcade +120gb hdd is nice and quiet.

I want that 13" MacBook Pro, but the graphics card in it still doesn't seem to be that great.  Certainly better than my current vanilla MacBook, but as much as I'd like to stick with Apple (and dual boot), I think I'm going to have to stick to my plan to get a PC desktop next go-round.

My purchases:

I thought you weren't much of a PC gamer, Lyte, so why would the graphics capability matter?

I'd like to do a small amount of gaming (SF4, Fallout 3, Diablo 3, and maybe a few others).  Also wouldn't a better graphics card help when playing HD video?

Kinda torn since I enjoy using OSX, but I want something more powerful and do not want to spend a shit-ton of cash on a Mac Pro or high-end MacBook Pro.  Plus I did that once before ($3,200 Alienware laptop) and it wasn't worth it in the end.  On the other hand, I've gone back to school (just recently finished the first quarter, all A's!) taking IT courses, so I'm getting used to Windows again.

I watched A Scanner Darkly this afternoon, and holy moley it looks good on Blu-Ray!

I also watched How the West was Won yesterday, and I was a bit surprised, but the Smilebox version (for simulated Cinerama) was very effective. It also looked nice on BD, a million times better than my old DVD copy.
