Coulda went in /vidya/, but this dead board might be visited when you're bored, so now you have something to watch.
And plus it's sorta more about futurey tech anyway.

Pic is what I found when I searched for 'life' on the galaxy of my hard drive.

I keep hearing about "skynet" - what is it?

And that vision of the future scares me, too, if it becomes that involved. There will be the tech, but I don't think every aspect of our lives will be an advert. If every aspect were, I would most certainly move to an area where they did things the old way - rewind VHS's (we record DVD movies onto VHS's and watch them), plug in cartridges to systems to play games, and ... okay, I wouldn't use dial-up.
I would cross countries if I needed to. There needs to remain a haven from the polluted affluence of western society.

I hope these guys are just trolling. Not only did They name their company, which makes powered exoskeletons that can lift thousands of pounds effortlessly, after Cyberdyne, but then they name their main line of power suits the "HAL" series...

Here I relay a tale from days of yore.

From the 1970's until the 1990's, a media format known as VHS existed. Dopplegangers attempted to oust VHS's mighty hold on the world, but in the end, VHS is the legend which will remembered.

In our current world, we use a media format known as DVD (with upcoming Blu-ray). When DVD was first released, all who owned VHS gasped in horror that their entire collection of Star Trek VHS tapes would be obsolete. They also laughed at the price of DVDs and DVD players, and continued to use VHS.
Soon, however, when you brought a VHS to a friend's house, all they had was a DVD player, and you were unable to share the delight of your poor quality audio and video of an amazing film. In place of the awesome VHS movie you were going to watch, you were forced and subjected to higher quality audio and video (played on an obese, cathode ray tube television - but that's another story for another time), of a terrible, recently released, recycled-plot film.

DVD owners laughed at our VHS tapes. Their logic for owning DVD was this:
"Well my movies might suck, but at least I don't have to rewind."
What is rewinding? Rewinding is a concept unique to pre-DVD era media formats. You see, within the VHS tape, a sort of plastic "tape" was wrapped around a spool, and this length of this tape contained the the movie you watched on your television screen. When playing, the tape would transfer from left spool to the right spool. Naturally, the tape would be stuck on the right side, so if we wanted to watch it again, we had to bring everything back to the left side via a process we called "rewinding".
Now there were two camps of thought in the phenomena of rewinding. Some people rewinded the tape immediately after watching, leaving nice, fresh, new and ready for immediate viewing. Others were akin to the hare - they enjoyed their delicious treats during the summer and starved during the winter. The latter camp tended to not watch movies very much, and thusly tended to be very boring in conversation.

In another 10 or 20 years, we may yet see the complete casting

sup /bill/?
so, recently my mp3 player died. this may or may not seem like a problem but im one of those people who almost cant live without music (honest! i was freaking the FUCK out when i found out it was dead!) and i was wondering if anyone here could recommend a new mp3 player that isnt an iPod? preferably has good/great quality sound and has minimal set-up.
ex: having to get everything off iTunes would be considered a good bit of set-up.

pic related, my face when i saw my music wasnt coming back any time soon.

You don't have a DS at all?!

The Acekard2i is about 15 bucks, an 8gb transflash card is about the same, and a DS Lite is about 120. Combine the prices and you get a PMP that does quite nicely with music and games for about the same price as the COWON2.

Before you get the D2, just a warning: You cannot have a proper playlist unless you install a completely different firmware. Also, I have extreme amount of bad luck but when I got mine, the screen flickered a lot and there was no way to fix that unless I send it in... Which I never did because packing that thing up and filling out all these forms was a pain in the butt, so I just lived with it.

Apparently, my computer got hit with a nasty virus that ate half of my system32 stuff. Luckily, I managed to save my pictures, mp3s and text files in an external harddrive, so the pictures are saved, woo-hoo!

I'm trying to format it with my Windows XP CD but my computer cannot read my CD-Drive when I try opening the BIOS configuration at startup (F2, F8 or F12, one of them).

When I go to the System Information and went to my Drives settings, it says "Onboard or USB CD-Rom Drive (Not Present)", all it can do is open and close normally without reading the disc. All the jumper cables are tightly plugged in when I open the tower up. I just hope the wires aren't damaged.

If anyone helps me, I'll promise tons of Pokeyman .rar files... Or even my whole collection. ; )

Well what sort of hard drive is it, and do you have another computer you can use for the process?

If yes to both, you can use an enclosure (35 dollars or so at a tech store like best buy) and put the drive in the enclosure, then mount said enclosure on another computer which CAN boot from CD rom. Boot the windows install CD and when you select "repair" choose to repair the drive out of your dead computer. This ought to repair the bad files, and let your computer boot again. Before you go ahead and restart it though, I'd use that virus cleaner (and a full-spectrum virus scan, just in case) on the drive while mounted as an external drive on your other PC, so that malicious programs in there don't get the chance to screw you up again.

Do not EVER, under ANY circumstances run ANY other update programs in parallel with a BIOS update.

Tried updating my touchpad driver while the BIOS flasher was also running. They apparently didn't get along, and the whole screen locked up for about ten minutes before I BSOD'd. Needless to say, I was scared shitless, this being my only realy computer and having just days ago gotten it back into working condition after a had disk failure.

Thankfully it was just that one or the other had boned my partition manager drivers and it was nothing a quick insertion of the system install media couldn't remedy, but DAMN it scared me. I've lost a laptop (When I was being given one for use at CS school) to a shite BIOS update, which was actually Lenovo's fault that time, so I know that screwing around with your BIOS basically means you're essentially fucked, but I guess it takes a few close calls to really make the message sink in.

Pic related, it's a stock photo of my (mostly) reliable laptop for over two years now.

One time I was in the middle of updating my motherboard's BIOS, and a friend's brother called him on the phone to inform us that he just failed a motherboard BIOS update and lost the board.

Feels bad man.

Graphics card thread.

Pic related, it's the one I want. Nvidia GTS 250. I'm sick of using DirectX8 to play my games, thought I'll probably still use it for the performance boost.

I'm using an Nvidia GeForce 6150 right now, feel free to make fun of that in the mean time.

God this is a slow board.

Good news everyone!

I got the GTS 250 after all. It is... Incredible to say the least. I can actually play all of my Steam games like TF2 on max settings (Including 16x anti aliasing, dx9) and still get 100fps+ without activating the fan on it.

This card is better than I ever could have hoped and I'm going to throw PS2 games etc at it until I can find a point where it can't cope.

Bad points? It's not quite silent, and it's a behemoth of a card physically, but if you can get past that... I still can't find the limits on it and I've been playing with it for hours. It even encourages you to "Tweak it and get more out of it" on the box I got it in, so I'm assuming there's plenty of room for overclocking too.

To emphasize it even more, my CPU is pathetic in comparison; a single core 2.2ghz Athlon 64. I'm saving up for something to compliment my god card :).

inb4 crysis on max, unless someone wants to gift me it ;)

Pic related, quick pic of Portal stuff on full max.

As promised earlier.

For some reason, it seems to have trouble rendering the 2D parts. It does CG cut scenes etc just fine, but whenever there's cinematics or static logos, the game drops to like 15-20 fps. It's odd, probably something to do with my settings or shitty CPU, one or the other.

Pic related, I've been meaning to play it for some time, but I'll admit, it's not as speedy as I probably made it out to be in the last post.

Sup, /bill/ionnaires.

I have a problem with my N5, and since we all play Pokemon here, many of us have a chance to use an N5, r4, or whatever.

My cheats don't work.
Halp me someone.

GBAtemp doesn't seem to be helping right now.

I'm going to take a shot in the dark and guess you're having the same problem I had with my M3. The problem was that the flash card doesn't support AR codes that use some special AR function.

If that's your problem these codes will fix it:
523FE274 E79B9009
023FE274 E08B9009
D2000000 00000000

Otherwise my only suggestion would be to make sure you have cheats enable in your menu and whatnot.

Although I don't see why you even want to bother with AR codes when you could just use pokesav. So much easier.

Poké ball, standard and special models.

An essential tool of the Pokémon trainer, Poké balls are used the world over and are the method of choice for the capture and transportation of Pokémon. Designed as a capsule system, captured Pokémon are able to live comfortably within it's built in virtual habitat,and can be called upon by their trainer when needed. Several variations of the Poké ball exist, including stronger models, situational models, and even hand crafted Poké balls, carved from the hard fruit of special trees. Trainers are allowed to carry a maximum of six occupied Poké balls at any time. Additional captured Pokémon can be stored in their Poké balls as data via PC, or traded to a friend.

I think because Team Rocket does a lot of illegal things, and just being a member can be a bad thing.
It'd be kind of like if you were part of Team Terrorist, or something.
