Again, that's gross generalization of the "genre". It's like saying all American music is the same. Like I said, there are actually some genuinely good groups/artists.

What's wrong with Disturbed And my J stuff is all pretty different. A lot is kinda goofy and I probably never would have liked a lot of it if i had never seen the animes they are from but some of it is genuinely good. abingdon boys school, well if their English was better (they've done a few english songs) I bet they could gain some popularity in the US. They are a genuinely good rock band. Shimamiya Eiko, she has a damn fine voice (she's not high pitched). Kawada Mami just does really good stuff. KOTOKO has an very unique sound. There's a bunch of others that are just actually good. Some how

Thanks everybody. It was just a relatively average day with a trip to the DMV, eating out, and cake involved.... as well as an exam and lab report.

My mom got me a few CD's for my birthday. They were kinda random. My mom could only think of one band at the moment that she knew for sure I wanted something from and it was Disturbed. She got me Disturbed - Ten Thousand Fists. Since I knew I'd like it, I decided to try the other two she got me first. I've heard of one of the groups and am unsure about the other. She was trying to see if I'd like them. Maroon 5 is the one I'm unsure of. The album was called "It Won't Be Soon Before Long". I popped it into the PC and listened to a few tracks. It was OK but since I was in a mood to rock out, it

Ha well, back to the laptop. It overheated and crapped out 35 minutes into operation. Oh well. Gonna call my mechanic real soon and see how much the camber kits will cost to be installed. Can't wait to get them installed an get an alignment. I'm tired of the steering wheel being turned to the right all the time.

OK, ignoring the last few posts/ Parts are here:

Codec packs allow for support of more video formats. CCCP works with Windows Media Player, DivX, Winamp, etc but it comes with it's own players which I feel work better. Zoom Player is my personal favorite (which comes with the CCCP) for video. I use VLC Media Player to play DVD's, and I use Winamp for Audio/Music. Here Combined Community Codec Pack (Has pretty much every video codec needed as well as a pair of good media players) http://www.cccp-project.net/ VLC Media Player (Good for DVD but can also play many of the same things as CCCP but doesn't handle them as well) http://www.videolan.or

The best codec pack I've used is the Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP). I comes with 2 media players, Zoom Player and Media Player Classic HomeCinema (I like Zoom Player). It can handle all the biggest video types and many others. It's considered by many to be a superior pack to K-Lite (CCCP is pretty much a must have amongst the anime community). VLC Media Player is another. It comes with it's own codecs but from my experience, it doesn't handle H.264 video as well as CCCP (particularly videos with soft subtitles) but it plays DVD's like a champ which is what I have it for.

how relevant would the first edition of that book be cause we already have the first edition.

My group and I are working on a project for Computer Security and we have 2 Linux machines running Ubuntu 8.10 x64 and 2 Windows XP Pro SP2 x86 Machines. Our project involves using the Linux machines to carry out some form of attack. We are starting off attacking the Windows machines with just the Windows Firewall. Then we will start adding levels of security such as firewalls and what not. While we are attacking with the Linux machines, we will also be trying to defend on the Windows machines. We may also do an attack against the Linux machines with the Windows machines. Here's the problem. W

It's a great gift and I appreciate it but when I tried to tell him not get it and told him other things I'd rather have, and he still gets it anyway. C'mon. I'd rather having a timing belt kit or something so my sole means of transportation can stay operable. It's also cheaper, I was just saying with the cash he dropped on it, I coulda gotten a ton of suspension stuff for the same money. Really though I need a bunch of crap for the motor and other spots on the car too. The laptop is mainly for school. I have a desktop for play. I have one car that needs work too, it's more important. No car, i

Well, ya know my birthday coulda been a great chance to get some parts but for some reason my dad really wanted to get me a new laptop despite the fact mine still works just fine (though I've broken and replaced the LCD) and I have a spare battery and charger for it. In all honesty, I didn't really want it. I mean, now I'm gonna have to transfer all my crap over, I will no longer have a spare battery or spare charger, it's gloss covered just like the one I've already bought and sold (I hated that laptop), it's much heavier (bigger, more powerful beast of a laptop), I mean c'mon. I tried to tel

I have to wait a little while for my stuff from InLineFour since it's clear across the country but they are still pretty prompt. I ordered that crap on the 8th I think, it's scheduled to arrive the 14th, but there's a really good chance it'll arrive the 13th and that's with going through and adjusting the order.

Yeah amazingly enough, it's usually the smaller specialty auto parts stores or other specialty stores (like the place my brother gets audio recording equipment and software from) have some of the best service (and strangely the best prices too). A lot of bigger places don't have that level of service except Newegg.com and other select few. Man, I'm probably gonna order a ton of my stuff from InLineFour. So far this is my third order with them. My first order (well actually my dad's order, it was a birthday present for me last year) was for the A'PEXi World Sport II Universal Muffler. Then afte

I do all my main banking physically. I only check my balances online. I use that in the place of my checkbook. I monitor all transactions to make sure no unauthorized transactions happen, and to check how much money I have before ordering stuff online or really buying stuff anywhere. Otherwise, when I gotta transfer, deposit, withdraw, whatever, I do it at the bank.

InLineFour is now officially my favorite online Honda parts store. I get an email quickly after my order stating something ordered is out of stock. They offer a better part at a discount. I reply accepting the offer while requesting an upgrade on the other item. Well, when I got home today after work. There's a message on the answering machine from the guy who emailed me confirming the order and informing me that it will be shipped soon and told me when it'd arrive. I sit down at my computer, check my email. There are 2, one from the same guy, again confirming my order and another from InLineF

Well, now it appears I won't be getting those BLOX camber kits but instead stronger Buddy Club P1 Racing Cambet Kits instead. The rear BLOX kits were out of stock and they offered me a discount on the rear Buddy Club kits and I asked them to upgrade the front kits to Buddy Club too. I don't mind paying the extra. I didn't even know they carried them. All Buddy Club, JUN, Competition Clutch, Mugen, TODA Racing, and Spoon Sports parts are in there own categories separate from the rest on InLineFour's site so that's how I missed it. I'm kinda excited now cause I'm gonna have more bigger badder br

That's what I was talking about a while back. My port is apparently missing so a diagnostic reader would be useless. But now my car is running as it should so my focus is on repairing the Camber problem my rear disc brake swap created. The kits should be in sometime next week and I figure that I should have them on the car within a week or 2 of getting them, then I'll run the car over to the tire place and have another alignment done. Man alignments are so cheap in this area that it's not a pain in the wallet to get them done. I know up north of here in Cool Springs it costs $125+ while down h

I got some BLOX Racing Camber Kits ordered to fix my camber problem. It's gonna be nice to get my steering wheel straight again

Didn't even know when exactly Earth Hour was until today. I was at work and headed home from work during the whole thing I think. But like jcl, we're on Hydroelectricity here. And the Compact Florescent bulbs, they don't seem to last as long as they say, but we use them in our basement and they do last quite a while. It's probably been a couple a years since we last changed them. We also have old school florescent lighting down there too over the washer and dryer and in front of the cars and those bulbs have NEVER been changed since my dad installed them over 14 years ago.

Can't Watch Dvd's On My Laptop
Honda_Boy replied to jimras's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
Cool. I've been using VLC Player for DVD's for a while now. It can play a lot of other stuff too but I use different players for different things. CCCP + Zoom Player for video, Winamp for Audio, and VLC For DVD's. -
Can't Watch Dvd's On My Laptop
Honda_Boy replied to jimras's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
Download and install VLC Player and see if you can get it to play DVD's. It seems to handle DVD's better than some commercial software. -
60+ processes. I don't really care how many are running when there's 4GB of RAM to play with. My ObjectDock has an option in the Performance Options that says Optimize for Performance: "I paid for this RAM. Use it." and that's what I have it set on

Heck I paid Jimmy to do my last oil change while he had my car for the rear disc brake swap. It was too cold outside and he has a giant heated shop. This is funny but really, changing my oil ain't nothin but a thing. I get a little oil a grease on my hands and I smell like oil until a change of clothes but that's it. It does however cost me more but that's cause I use Full Synthetic Mobil 1 and use good oil filters (either Honda or Wix). I do that for peace of mind though. A Lightning Lube royal screwed up on my car when I got it's first oil change after getting it. Lets just say it started wi
