Great Beer posted:Its 70 for 2gb in america with Verizon, with 10 bucks per gig after that. I have a grandfathered plan that's 60 for 2gb. Cricket is making big strides to be a player since ATT bought them. 4 lines, 2.5gb each (not pooled, sadly), $100 per month all-in. Can't really beat it. Even 1 line is $35.

There's a whole part of the plot of the movie I still don't understand because this kid was making all kinds of noise and wandering around. Yeah, screw the kids with autism that want to watch a movie, you have the plotline of FF7 to focus on. So, TT gets an awesome dog, fjelltorsk gets an awesome project... good way to end lent.

That poo poo is awesome and extremely valuable, Fart Pipe, get them in a safety deposit box and/or insured! News: Community College enrollment for this Summer is down 50% from this time last year. That is a gently caress-ton. Why? I'm going to bet that a bunch of stupid kids believed Obama when he made that ridiculous statement during the State of the Union address where he promised free community college. I bet they are sitting back and planning on waiting until it becomes true. It will never become true. Obama directly hosed the most impressionable and trusting demographic.

BraveUlysses posted:http://www.forbes.com/sites/richard...n-people-think/ That just says that the majority of the deductions goes to the people that have the most expensive houses. That's self-evident. The exact same logic is used by rich people to SUPPORT the fact that they pay the most in taxes, even though their tax percentage is often half, or less, what "normals" make. You can't play with the numbers both ways. Either way, "I'm going to buy a house with most of it in interest so I can get a big deduction" is idiotic logic. I don't doubt that it happens, because there are a lot of idiots, but I cannot believe that that situation is anywhere near the majority. If it is, then it's more of an argument for bank reform than anything else. Well cited though, kudos.

As an aside from the shitshow going on in the post your ride thread, I made like the poor I am and bought some literal garbage on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Atari-Dig-Cartridges-Missile-Command-8545-/301592716981?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item463853a6b5 In the '80s, Atari crashed as a company and there was a legend about the company burying millions of ET cartridges in the desert. A group got together and cleared permits and permissions to dig up part of a New Mexico landfill last year and they actually found the burial site and recovered the cartridges that had been buried for 30 years. Having one of those is a great nerd souvenir right there!

Black88GTA posted:I just happened to catch part of a documentary on this event a couple days ago actually, although I forget which channel it was on. It featured a series of interviews with the guy who programmed the E.T. game that was widely (if undeservedly) blamed by many for speeding the company's demise (he came off as kind of a jackass, honestly), interviews with many other people who were in the industry / working at Atari at the time, and video footage from the actual dig itself. Apparently some local (and some not local) super nerds caught wind of what they were doing, and made a pilgrimage out there to witness it. The crowd looked exactly like what you'd imagine. Thanks, I meant to mention the documentary, but forgot. It's also on Netflix. Worth the watch.

I've never used Roku, but heard good things about them. Another option is a Sony Bluray player. New less than the Roku, refurb at Amazon less than $50: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-BDPS1200-Blu-Ray-Disc-Player/dp/B00TRADGKA I use one and it's been very solid, fairly quick and the interface is easy to use.

Cat Terrist posted:Only if it involves metal recycling. gently caress carbs forever, fuel injection can even do induction roar better. Carbs are staples on small engines. I had a minor carb triumph today with dad's big 15hp Kawasaki twin-driven Snapper Pro walk behind. He didn't use Stabil like I suggested (and offered), and I got some 911 emails a couple weeks ago that he couldn't get it started. I went over and took a look and found that it wasn't getting gas. There was a fuel pump driven off of the vacuum of one cylinder (I'd never seen that before), but it was stuck. I sucked and blew on it a bit and got it back to pumping and it started up. After that, though, it kept getting worse. Lower and lower revs until it would die when you tried to engage the blades. I took the carb off today and went to town on cleaning it. I have never had success with carbs, by the point I pull one, I'm pretty much resigned to buying a new one. But, I took it apart, found some crap in the bowl, took out the jets and carb cleaner'd everything. Put it back together and... wow, the fucker actually started and looks like it's making full power! Good day given from the carb god, but yeah, gently caress carbs in general.

At least the holes already exist, I'm going to just run it alongside the existing coax, If the coax is existing, just use it as a pull string, with a pull string attached.

DICKPOCALYPSE NOW posted:So installed the Samsung driver straight from the source. This is where i'm at with no ability to drag and drop files or even see anything other than being able to pull pictures off it. I've been in a very similar place with both a Nexus 4 and 5. The computers simply will not see them as storage devices and/or will not allow you to transfer files. On the N5, I tracked it down to a driver issue and had to gently caress around with that. On the N4, I was just pulling stuff off to clear it, and it was my wife's pictures and stuff, so I just cloud-synced it and called it "good enough."
