Get out the chainsaw, pizza is more important than trees

The future is here, my friends, and it is glorious Pizza drones are go! Domino's gets NZ drone delivery OK - Holly Ryan - NZ Herald - NZ Herald News

My contractor is flaking out on me. He's spent the last 5 days doing drywall taping, mudding, & sanding...in a 4x10 bathroom. Shows up, piddles around for an hour or two, then leaves for the day. Urge to kill...rising. I guess he doesn't want the last $2000 we have yet to pay him

Yep, what Flipmode said. I have an i5 3570k with 1866 memory, and there is a zero percent performance gain in benchmarks when I clock it at 1600 vs 1833. Just stick to 1600. Only buy faster if it's on sale and cheaper for some reason(but it's still going to run at 1600 to match your current...

Ah yeah my bad, forgot the AL East currently has 3 playoff teams if the season ended today, I was just looking at our record compared to the top 2 in each division

9 Wins in a row, and 12 of last 13 for the Royals Only 2 games out of a Wildcard spot after going 7-19 in the month of July

My PC build last weekend = about 2 hours because I was watching football and drinking beer while I did it (probably 45 minutes if I wasn't distracted) Assembling a bookshelf from IKEA for my wife last month = 4 goddamn hours of human torture and self-loathing. A PC is much easier than...

How does a person go a month without a functional kitchen while it's being remodeled? We've had one of our three bathrooms torn up for going on 3 weeks now, and that sucks just because I have to walk all the way to the bedroom to take a piss. I can't imagine going without a kitchen for a long...

As someone who photographs a LOT of roofs(I'm an insurance agent, have to take pics of every house I write), I've found out over the years that digital cameras do a LOT of wonky things to roof pictures taken from a distance like this. All of those horizontal lines lead to some weird artifacts...

Are the Vols going to step up this year and take the annual East ass-whipping in the SEC title game? The East champ has only kept the game within single-digits once in the last 7 years (gg Georgia in 2012)

Just to throw some more gas on the fire...got my new office computer built and it works great. Put the whole thing together from unboxing the parts to complete windows install in the time it took me to watch 1 preseason football game on Sunday. i5 6500, 500GB Samsung 850 Evo, 16gb DDR4 2400...

Yeah, all of my old EQ screenshots are long gone. My ranger in full Rubicite, playing in early beta where I fell down the goddamn Befallen well at like level 10 and Kendrick(maybe level 35 at the time, probably 10 higher than anyone else in beta) retrieved my corpse for me. Took a screenshot...

Time Warner and Comcast employees tanking their rating? edit - Actually, I do know what it is. It's idiots that only use Google Fiber through the wifi on their 10 year old Linksys router that is down in their basement and then bitch about how it isn't any faster than their old service. My...

The only way I'm ok with it is if it's spots for electric cars with charging stations in the spot We've got a row of these in front of a local store: Which is kind of hilarious because there's more spots there(6) than the number of Tesla cars I've ever seen when out driving around Kansas...

The season is officially here, 1st game is on Friday. Cal vs Hawaii in Australia But, the really real season is still 2 weekends away, but man does it have some good games(lot of P5 vs P5 matchups). I like that they're spread out so much since there's no NFL regular season yet. Thurs Sept 1...

I dont know that I've mentioned on this new site exactly how great Google Fiber is...

Not so fast, Notre Dame wasn't done with just the first 5 players getting arrested... Friday night was terrible, embarrassing for Notre Dame

I'm constantly shocked at just how much I can't stand anything I've heard from Puscifer, considering how much I like Tool and APC.

I think you mean they are for people on disability who still work full time, but only cash-paying jobs, so they can work the system. People around here act like they've won the lottery when they get approved for federal disability.

Not sure if this belongs here or not, but it is pretty cool regardless. Can use a video feed from a phone, tablet, console, PC, Drone, etc. Avegant Glyph | Home

Joke's on you, he's not very good and our offense was so bad last year that he led our team despite having only 4 TDs! Haha haha hah ha ahhhh ehhhhhhhh /sob

Lowe's and Home Depot having so many goddamned Handicap parking spots Those people aren't building a deck or remodeling their own bathroom For christ's sake, those two stores have more handicapped parking than anywhere I've ever seen in my life, and it's the primo 1 row thats right between...

My motto is to just accept the fact that TV tech is changing fairly rapidly, and whatever you buy today, you'll want to replace it in 5 years. Spend $1000-$1500 now on a good LED, and then plan on spending that much again in 5 years on whatever is good then (8K OLED?, who knows?) I think...

Google Fiber rethinking its costly cable plans, looking to wireless

I bet this happens in more cities that haven't started their build-out yet. Google is either currently, or real close to testing a gigabit wireless technology. I bet they'd rather set up new cities with that, than having to bury wire everywhere if they haven't started that yet. Laying...

Satuday morning, about 5:30am. Had to make sure we had time to get it in(ha) before the toddler woke up and came to get in bet with us. 5:30 am is a godawful early time, but I'll wake up for sex.

Update - Wife got everything sorted out Friday after taking the day off. Exchanged floor tile for correct stuff(had to drive an hour across town to get it, but whatever) They had the rest of our shower tile in their local warehouse, said they would pull it and deliver it on Saturday morning...

I'm liking our week 1 matchup more and more!

Yeah, Dan Reeves, Jeff Fisher, and Chuck Nox are the only guys in the top 10 for losses that don't have a championship ring(although Reeves went to the Super Bowl 4 times and lost all 4. Fisher has been once and lost.) Coaches, Records, and Coaching Totals | Pro-Football-Reference.com...

Jeff Fisher is only 10 losses away from setting the all-time loss record for NFL coaches(he's 10 behind Dan Reeves). Odds he breaks the record this year? Decent, Id say. Oddly enough Tom Coughlin is only 15 shy of the record.

If you are running in a window, I believe that is correct If you're running a game full-screen it can still take advantage of that particular monitors refresh rate wile the rest of your desktop is over on the other monitors and their refresh rate.

The old adage: "If everyone else is an asshole...you're probably the asshole"

My wife always buys weird flavors of normal things "Hey honey, grab some pringles when you go to the grocery store" She'll come back with some sort of goddamn honey lime sriracha pringles or some crap. She buys weird flavors of beer. My beer fridge is half full of random hard Root Beer...

Now I know why people over-pay for big remodeling companies to remodel their homes Someone needs to be a full-time project manager, because people in this industry are completely inept. our contractor goes to pick up our tile yesterday that we purchased a month ago, and the tile shop has been...

Prince Fielder will retire with the exact same number of HR as his dad Cecil. 319 for both. Strange... Prince 162 game average for career : .283 avg, 32HR, 103 RBI, .887 OPS Cecil 162 game average for career: .255 avg, 35HR, 111 RBI, .827 OPS

It'll get to you...but it will probably take 5 years I'm in the extreme southern suburbs of KC(obviously not as big as chicago) and it eventually got to me, just took about 4 years from the initial city announcement. They move SLOW.

What a time to be alive

The story of AMDs life is "...just a couple more driver updates and directX optimization and our performance should pull ahead of Nvidia" Nevermind the fact that Nvidia is updating and advancing as well. That AMD promise of "more upside" just never quite seems to materialize. Go with the...
