[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;36495193]But hey. I liked my GT220 and it was more cheaper than a 9400GT. So with that in mind, can't really complain. I have seen a few 8800GTs over heat but never a 9800GTX so I'll assume that when it hits death heat it's thermal nuclear.[/QUOTE] Sorry, maybe I was a bit harsh on the GT 220. Anyhow, the 9400 GT is worse, and I didn't say you made a bad purchase - just that you can't compare your GT 220 thermals to that of the 9800GTX+.

The sound quality is worse than on a potato. But I hate listening through speakers.[/QUOTE] I really recommend investing in some great headphones, even if they cost much. Well, that applies to almost anything. Spending more gives you quality and longevity. I can't remember when I last used speakers. Ever since I started using headphones I've loved them. Although, my first head[B]set[/B] was Creative Fatal1ty, which made me almost switch back to speakers, until they broke and I bought good headphones.
ERMAHGERD, I'm so glad to be finished with CFL backlights. At least both displays I have were bought at the same time, they should age equally now.
Is it normal for HD555's to do this? [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/22706967/SAM_0409.JPG[/img] It's like that on both sides. It's functionality isn't impaired any way because of this, but I'm just curious.

[QUOTE=latin_geek;36495751]Breaking isn't a thing that's normal for anything to do :v:[/QUOTE] I just heard a long time ago that there's a common problem with the build quality on those things. I don't remember specifically what it was, and I was wondering if that was it. But who am I kidding, I have a massive head and that's probably why it's splitting right there.
[QUOTE=latin_geek;36495751]Breaking isn't a thing that's normal for anything to do :v:[/QUOTE] Except Acer laptops.
That's a common problem with those, yeah, but that doesn't mean it should be doing it.
I'm looking at non-5,000 dollar sliders on amazon [url]http://www.amazon.com/KONOVA-Slider-B2-120cm-47-2-inch/dp/B004YAQCOU/ref=sr_1_7?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1340720436&sr=1-7&keywords=Camera+slider[/url] [quote] This one is made in Korea by Konova at hight quality. The stable and smooth takes are the basic elements of the film art. Photos took accurately facilitate perception of content correctly and improve values of ultimate version of the movie. The Slide Cam it is a system that enable taking film photos with moving camera. Specially designed dolly moves on rail length 10000 mm leading the cam ahead of screened theme. It can be mounted in a variety of ways includeing vertically, horizontally, diagonally, sideways as it has steel roller bearings that ride on a steel track it remains smooth regardless of orientation.[/quote]
Well, one guy made his slider out of LEGO, so you should try it too .
That really doesn't look that hard to build
You could just get a quardocopter instead of a slide at that price

[QUOTE=SEKCobra;36497530]You could just get a quardocopter instead of a slide at that price[/QUOTE] Which would do a very different job from what I want. This is for video work and also timelapse photography. [editline]26th June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=kaze4159;36497540][url]http://www.instructables.com/id/Light-Weight-Tripod-Camera-Slider-for-DSLR/[/url] Ding[/QUOTE] Frankly that looks terrible, and probably slides like crap. The issue is the friction and grip that is placed on the rails. With heavy gear it won't slide smoothly. Hence me buying a slider designed for this. My camera with my 30mm alone is like 5lbs, when I add a monitor and possibly a mic, that will bind down. Besides, I don't need something that cheap. I'm getting a motor system, controller, and a accessory mount for this too to do automated slides. Atleast, that's my plan.
Oh weep, got a job at my dad's place. Duct tape is fun to make, ain't it? I should get atleast 2 euros per hour afaik. Sister gets ~25 euros per day but she does only one thing. I will be probably doing one thing in 9-12 and other thing from 13-17 or so. Oh well, let's see tomorrow, gotta go to sleep today a bit sooner than 3am. Also the headset I use right now is reallllllyyy crappy. Everything is really muddy or underwater like. The microphone on it is the only good thing. And well, the sound doesn't leak that badly. Can't hear others well when I have them on.
I now hold the world record for fastest BSOD. My PC decided that it wanted to BSOD literally as soon as it started loading windows, like the normal win 7 loading screen didn't even appear and it just flashed blue instead.
Isn't two euros like a fourth of minimum wage or something
[QUOTE=latin_geek;36498101]Isn't two euros like a fourth of minimum wage or something[/QUOTE] I am not employeed at full place. I am only 14, just have to help there / do the stuff others do while a few people are away. One has some serious sickness, other broke his arm and there are people going on vacation. They got an order of a fuckton of tape. Like, 250 boxes of masking tape.
I just put my resume in to a temp-to-hire service. Basically will start off making at least 10 bucks if they call me back. I'm going to drive down the street to a local appliance parts place and apply there. They have a massive sign out front, and I know the place is air conditioned.

My phone seems to be really fucked. Well, atleast the battery. From 100% to 0% in 8 hours isn't right, is it? Wifi off, GPS off etc.
This is unrelated to Facepunch and hardware, but I need to vent. This is about a recent issue at another forum: [quote=Crest]I really don't understand some communities. I've been apart of forum X for nearly 8 years now. I've been on staff for 6 of them. The site went from being #1 of it's genre to now just being a memory and nostalgia lane. All the "older" members who were ehhh years ago now feel they are the main squad that make the site work. For the past 2 years they have just been total shit. Whining, complaining, flaming, spamming, all because they feel they are special because they have been on the site longer. Just about 3 months ago, we had a new admin come in and step up to handle redoing the servers, UI for mods, and new features for the site to bring it back online for a new "chapter" in the site. That group of people that feel entitled, were pestering him about changing the site. They are maybe 30 members out of the maybe 20,000 we have active that whine about this stuff. The admin then doesn't talk to any of the staff about this, and then posts a new announcement on the site that he's leaving because the vocal minority aren't liking how he's running the site. I blame both parties. The admin who doesn't know the community enough to realize, this shitdicks don't know how to run anything and actually failed to run their own forum many times. And that they do not represent the majority of the members that will end up paying for the site. They all run adblockers and just browse specific sections with no intention of contributions. And then I blame the fucking cunts of members who wallow in their dreams of nostalgia for their fun times on the site so much that they don't even see that they are killing the site that they keep shouting at to stay alive. Every day it's, "Wow this site is dead", "so much for keeping this alive" And these same members are the ones who whine about the new skins, which are optional, or the new setup user groups, new user colors, new avatar standards, new signature standards, new server migrations, new moderation, new staff in general, new contest. All of this shit is an issue for them because they don't like change. Yet no one wants to join a site for a community that's living 5-6 years in the past, it just won't work that way. And they don't see it. So now that the admin abruptly stepped down, all these members are acting like the world is ending and are posting all sorts of shit and spamming and ruining what is left of the board. So I'm going in and deleting a shit ton, but their efforts are crowdsourced. Thing is a lot of the members doing it used to be some of the highest reputed users who created really high quality content, contributions and advertising for the site. And in one sense, I don't want to ban someone who has such a history with everyone, but at the same time, this person has been on this site for 6-7 years, he fucking knows what he should and should not do, but he just keeps posting porn and shit on a site with a strict no NSFW policy. It fucking burns me as I'm the one cleaning up after these whiney cunts complain about mods not cleaning up the site. Most of these users are my age, sometimes older. So why does it feel like I'm an old guy with a bunch of brats running around wiping shit all over their toys that they begged and screamed to get for years. [/quote] This is me venting on a separate forum. I talk about FP to all my friends and to people over there because from all my years here, Garry setup a really great site. I love Facepunch and I loved forum X, but mismanagement of the rules and favouritism of members from the shady mods ruined it. And I wish I could be admin and permaban loads of them.
I don't care how long someone has been around, if they are dicking on they deserve the ban.
Ooh I got an email saying I can order the Raspberry Pi, finally. Edit: Shit I'm gonna have to wait 10 weeks. Fuck.
That's part of the problem. I love FP because of the brutal mods in most cases. There is a understanding of that, if you flame or just post like shit, you get banned. No way easy way around it. Our site had the issue of bringing on some mods with hidden biases and they end up vocally disagreeing with some bannings. Here is the issue, the staff keeps overturning bans on members, so now so many members realize that if they just bitch enough about WAAAAH ITS UNFAIIRRR YOU MEANY they will get unbanned and then proceed to bitch about being banned in the first place as all their friends circlejerk and lick up all their selfentitled bitch jizz. If we had more rocksolid staff, I'd seriously ban about 25-30 people for 6 months. Get them outof the way.
