And I sure as hell won't buy anything from Bose, the #1 lifelong spam subscription seller. Because once you buy/look at Bose and they somehow get your data, you'll get their mail for about 20 years. Wow never thought I'd encounter a noise canceling headphone  lord. Mine are pretty comfortable and block a lot of the noise since the cover and muffle my entire ear. And they're $10. I like my headphones. Sorry your ears make it difficult to wear these kinds of headphones. Is that good enough for you?

Yours don't have any active noise cancellation, therefore not being noise cancelling. Just because you can't hear the outside world because you are listening to something at full volume, that still doesn't make it the same thing. I'm not arguing for it, since I don't care for the technology either, but you are grossly misusing the technical terms.

 I bought the water filter pitcher recommended by rhesweethome. Using it to fill up my ice cube trays and hydration pack. I've noticed my water has less of a chlorine taste already so that's a win.

I wish somebody made one of these with a modern trackpoint. Apparently the old IBM ones are garbage and Lenovo doesn't make mechanical keyboards any more.

The one's on Lenovo Thinkpad laptops are pretty good. Although the reason a person learns this in the first place is because their trackpads are so god awful you take desperate measures.

After almost 10 years of using my old Philips HD ready TV (with the weird 1366*768 resolution), and using it for PC couch gaming, I upgraded it to this proper new model that can finally handle decent resolution and frequency. Sony Bravia KDL-40W705 It's so different and looks so much better now with a TV that can handle a gaming source. It's even more beautiful and fluid than what I imagined it would look like.

Looked at magnum but I think I'll be okay coz circuit car not drag launches etc. CAE shifter should make it feel spectacular. Plus I think I'll be the only one in the world! E46 (the best one). I want 500hp/ton. Build thread here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3717784
