    I've seen people go on and on about how CRT's are superior to LCD's for gaming because they can display higher resolutions and different attributes... but I don't want a huge 30 pound screen taking up my whole desk, nobody does.

    if you're gaming and somehow you have a lag or something its most likely going to have nothing to do w\ ur nice lcd screen.

    I take back that there are no widescreen CRTs, but there are no widescreen CRTs in Poland.
    And if i had something like that on my desk i would be sitting 10cm from the screen.

    In an attempt to cheer me up from my days-old depression, one of my friends thought it would be funny to "give a virus" to my other friend. They basically did the Windows Shutdown Virus and it produced some hilarious results, since my other friend ran a virus scan on it and no results came up. He was flipping out til we told him, and he scolded us.

    My bass amp is a Behringer. I thought it was pretty good at first but now it crackles and pops whenever I play too loud using the neck pickup.

    I guess it is just a practice amp though. Maybe I just need more wattage if I want to get a deeper sound.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Getting to find and buy stuff off ebay for work... I could do this every day : )

    we needed a 1u server, and I just bought an auction for $370+30 shipping for 2 dell poweredge's w\ dual core xeons, 2gb ram, and 160gb hard drive.

    We were quoted $850 for a similar server from this company and it had a 1.8ghz celeron 330, 2gb, and 2x 80gb hd (no raid)

    Will be kindof funny when they're like... we only needed one server! you bought 2 ! lol

    What made me smile today is that my ex-girlfriend made it obvious that she's not over me yet, and probably never will be.

    We broke up a month ago. I didn't call her on V-Day and now she's acting batshit insane again. Maybe she expected that I would want to get back with her?

    Goddamn, all the more validation for how good I am in bed.

    Today has so far has been mostly pain free. Its rather surprising, I'd forgotten what it felt like to be normal. Of course I'm not completely pain free but its nowhere near the level of pain I'm used to dealing with, of course that too is likely to change as the day progresses but its been a good day so far so I'm grateful.

    Well it was Valentine's day so she's probably just lonely. It's not necessarily that she's still hot for you or that you're particularly good in bed.

    The day is young my friend. Except where I'm at it's 8:33PM.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    The rash that I acquired a few days ago is clearing up, thanks to the medication that my doctor prescribed to me. Although there are some itchiness here and there, it's mostly contained with the help of anti-itch creams.

    Just received my JLPT 2 results in the mail, and I passed!

    I looked up this model, and it seems to be almost identical to the bass I have, only it's a 5-string. That's pretty cool.

    I still have dreams of saving up for a Fender J-bass or a Stingray.

    I finally got around in finding a suitable job: a deskroom clerk. The job pays well despite the fact that I spend most of my time surfing on the internet and occasionally helping other people out. Other than that though, I do help reorganize files and do other tasks for other people when I have the free time, which is always.
