[QUOTE=wlzshroom;36907374]at my grandma's house on some athlon rig using 1 mbps internet and there's no wifi in the house so i can't use my mom's laptop at least god dammit this is gonna be hard[/QUOTE] Unplug what you're on now and use the Ethernet cable?

do laptops have ethernet ports anymore?

Yes, all of mine have them. Why wouldn't they?

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;36907598]Unplug what you're on now and use the Ethernet cable?[/QUOTE] 1. that's my grandpa's computer and he's here and he was just letting me on for like 15 minutes 2. my dad is some variety of sorcerer and set up wi-fi using an old router he brought

[QUOTE=altern;36907853]do laptops have ethernet ports anymore?[/QUOTE] Mine does. Gigabit, even. The manual even lists a dial-up phone port as an optional feature.

Ethernet is still a long way off from being removed from laptops.

My cheap $30 headphones just broke. The cord snapped in half. damn

[QUOTE=altern;36907853]do laptops have ethernet ports anymore?[/QUOTE] Most of the larger ones still do, although I think smaller netbook ones don't.

[QUOTE=Demache;36908608]Most of the larger ones still do, although I think smaller netbook ones don't.[/QUOTE] My netbook from 2010 has one, but I think the Macbook Air/Ultrabooks don't.

[QUOTE=ManningQB18;36908708]My netbook from 2010 has one, but I think the Macbook Air/Ultrabooks don't.[/QUOTE] That's because Apple can somehow make *removing* a port into a feature. Although they do have "optional" USB or Thunderbolt Ethernet adapters.

I wouldn't be surprised if the 2012 MBA had a single usb port and anything else would be handled via bluetooth or someshit Special apple patented bluetooth that only works on special apple bluetooth devices unless you have adapters, that is I kinda want to get into MGS but I don't know which game to start with. Any recommendations?

[QUOTE=Forumaster;36908367]Ethernet is still a long way off from being removed from laptops.[/QUOTE] Especially considering it still is faster than most current harddrives atleast in laptops, I don't think it's much of a limiting factor for most uses. Still way faster than USB. [editline]24th July 2012[/editline] Also I will be making some videos of the nexus 7 this week, any particular requests. Minecraft works well, so does that Death Trigger game I posted some screens of in the General Game Media topic and on twitter. Looks really good, being on unity. Maybe also the voice recognition which so far has been 100% accurate even for some odd words and brands.

i wish i had a second Ethernet port I could plug a keyboard into UNLIMITED WPM

[QUOTE=DustySheep;36908915][img]http://puu.sh/Lcfb[/img] My room does not have good lighting. At all.[/QUOTE] It looks like it was pulled apart.

I think it was just some cheap-ass rubber with copper

was it anywhere near liquid nitrogen or something

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;36909147]My old $40 dollar ones that were some chinese shit, lasted 4 years. They broke a few months back.[/QUOTE] These lasted less than a year

I might be able to trade in a fuckton of DDR1 RAM for some cheap headphones in the Facepunch trading thread

Oh cool, the sticks magically disappeared. [editline]23rd July 2012[/editline] Oh wait, I have some DDR2 4GB (2GBx2) RAM That should be around like, ~$25-30

Anyone wants to play some No More Room In Hell later? After PewDiePie made a video about it, all the public servers are flooded with stupid 9 year olds and it is impossible to play with them -edit- I just realized I wrote PewDiePay for some reason

you could say it's hell and there's no more room in it

[QUOTE=latin_geek;36910453]you could say it's hell and there's no more room in it[/QUOTE] That was pretty bad.
