Even my Uncle's Kuro (final version) had IR after my cousin recklessly played COD on it for almost a day without switching to anything else.

It's still there if you look carefully on certain material, so I guess it progressed from IR to burn-in.

that's cool,

my statement still stands. unless you're staring at a blank screen, it isn't a problem.

IR is still an issue on plasma? Back when I had my plasma, I could game on it all day and then use the wipe feature or whatever that went over it with a white bar and it was gone.

It's not a big issue but you still have to be a little careful about it Just don't do anything dumb like keeping on a static pic for 5 straight hours.

nothing nefarious

the first sunday of every month im going to go to an all day long carbine shoot at this great range that has everything from a 400 yard rifle range down to shoot houses with pop out targets and everything else in between. since its a carbine shoot youve got to stow your pistol somewhere right?

in before pd or himu tells me to just "tuck it in ya draws dawg"

xmas week shopping arrived, buying your own presents :arr

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2169 on:** January 17, 2011, 01:52:41 AM »

Used some Amazon giftcards so it was free, plus I get a $20 credit which will go toward Dead Space 2.

Cormacaroni · « **Reply #2170 on:** January 17, 2011, 02:19:47 AM »

this is somewhat of a departure! hope you like it

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2171 on:** January 17, 2011, 01:08:51 PM »

Departure? The first KOTOR is my favorite game of all time.

Did you get to play ME1?

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2173 on:** January 17, 2011, 01:14:32 PM »

Nope. No 360 and I've got a crap laptop that would probably die if you put the disc in the drive.

I'll make due with that motion comic that sums up the first game.

Rman · « **Reply #2174 on:** January 17, 2011, 01:22:52 PM »

Man, if you lived around me, I would let you borrow my system. I loved ME1. The motion comic doesn't replace the ME1 experience, unfortunately. But you'll have fun with ME2.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #2175 on:** January 17, 2011, 08:37:54 PM »

Jut bought...

-Levy's Leathers 2 Cotton Guitar Strap,Black
-Medium gauge Fender guitar picks
-Fender Mini Acoustic Guitar Stand
-Korg GA-40 Large Display Guitar and Bass Tuner
-1TB Samsung F3 HDD for $55

Also bought a Nikkor 28mm f/2 AI lens two weeks or so ago for $225

And thats the end of spending money on fun things for the rest of the year

ME2 with all its DLC is a blast. You should love it. Was one of my favorite games last year.

Spent $2300 on new furniture last Saturday. Our apartment is going to look like an IKEA showroom. Signed up for AT&T U-Verse internet/TV too.

The TV I bought still hasn't arrived...the shitty weather is over, but it really screwed up deliveries.

What's a motion comic? I mean, I know what the format is, but relating to the game is it a feature or is it just a "Previously in Mass Effect" summary of ME1?

Rman · « **Reply #2180 on:** January 17, 2011, 11:13:52 PM »

It's the latter. You're able to make key choices that would effect your character for ME2.

Got one of my $10 for $20 amazon gift cards. The other 2 I ordered on different emails but with the same credit card both got canceled. Oh well, I'll take any free amazon credit I can get.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2184 on:** January 21, 2011, 12:46:34 PM »

I got a $20 Amazon gift card from Living Social, as did my wife. I used mine along with the $20 credit from Mass Effect 2 to pick up Dead Space 2.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #2186 on:** January 21, 2011, 12:49:49 PM »

Just used my amazon credit to order:

There was a used copy with prime shipping for $53, so I paid about $43 total. There are some new copies left for $49.99, but no prime shipping = no order. 3rd party booksellers always use slow ass media mail.

Not a bad price, considering I sold a copy for $250 at christmas time and wanted to replace it.

New Alienware PC got here today.

Pics are from my cellphone....in the dark.....so yeah the quality sucks but you kind of get the idea. I'm going to move it into the other room tomorrow but I just set it up on my laptop desk for the interim to check the thing out. That CPU is heavy as fuck.

Got my Brendan McCarthy pic (titled 'Strange Spider') framed:

'Strange Spider' by Brendan McCarthy by Cormacaroni, on Flickr

IMG_5519 by Cormacaroni, on Flickr

New wall-candy by Cormacaroni, on Flickr

The image was originally part of a proposed sequel to the 'Spider-man: Fever' mini he did for Marvel last year:

It's not my favorite of his pieces but he doesn't have much for sale, and very little of what he does sell is full color work, which is a major part of the attraction for me. My office/study/man cave is starting to come together at last

Feel free to vote on whether it should be on the left or right!

Went a bit crazy today

as you can see the carpet care machines are where its at. Thank you costco for having the DC25 for regular price with all the attachments I wanted. I cleaned with our old vacuum then used the dyson and was like OMG. Decided that cause of it I'd move some furniture around and clean up so thats when I got to thinking. Maybe I should just steam the carpets and clean them that way. I'm much happier than I was a day before. Now if only I can find a good place to put my clothing in I'll be done with spring cleaning before its even spring.

Has it really not gone down much in price? $150 just seems like overkill especially when other complete series collections are going for around $100. Fuck I can get all of stargate for cheaper than that! Still I will keep an eye out on it as its one of those show's to pop in get plowed and fall asleep too.
