  2. I have no problems with people watching MLP. I feel like a lot of bronies are just into it because it gives them something to be a part of though. Only ones that bother me are the ones that spam it on the internet or in games like TF2.

    Never again
  4. Romney didn't know his stuff better, he straight up lied through the entire debate, even bringing up the lie of the year from 2010, that Obamacare is somehow a government takeover of healthcare. Obama lost because he let Romney get away with lying, not because he didn't know what he was talking about. As for that video, it was an absolute embarrassment to Hannity. If anything it's a case of Fox race baiting by trying to paint Obama as some sort of Black Nationalist when nothing he said was in any way like that. God forbid someone talking to a group of a certain denomination discusses issues relevant to them...
  5. Romney won the debate, in the same way Paul Ryan gave a good speech. Everything he said is going to be picked to pieces by fact checkers over the next week. Obama really needs to bring his A game in 2 weeks though, he really stumbled through this one.
  6. First job was a paper route that I did for 10 months in grade 6. First real job was washing dishes and busing. Quit that in February because the hours were awful. I haven't started looking for a new job yet, although I probably should.

    Slept for 0 hours last night, and now I'm skipping 2 classes to finish an English assignment that was due last Friday. I use my time well...
  8. Yo I don't know if you were paying attention but they made an infographic about it, I don't think an infographic has ever been misleading. One of those things taught me how to make brownies in a microwave. Semper fi That brownie was the best brownie I ever had. I also learned how to get into most wireless routers and remove/change the password.

    I might sell mine and get a SIII off contract. If I can get $500 for my iPhone it would only be a $170 upgrade.

    Reminds me I should probably go get my iPhone fixed before the warranty is up in November. My earphones are dead, the lock button is broken, the video/speakerphone mic is broken, and I have a stuck pixel. Hopefully they haven't upgraded the refurbished replacement phones to iOS 6 yet.
  11. It seems like the new class of grade 10s at my school are finally starting to understand the basic concept of walking up and down staircases. Now it only takes about a minute to get down two flights of stairs instead of two three minutes. Groups of grade 10 girls are still the worst though. Apparently walking in lines of 4 on the wrong side of the hallway at .1 m/s, while giving dirty stares to anyone who dares pass them is fun to them. Wat even is adblock plus?

    No! Bad Sbrideau! Bad! Killing your apps is a very good way to flatten the battery. You see, in Android, and iOS, when you're not using an app and switch to another app the app is just put into a frozen state in your RAM. This won't drain your battery like using CPU cycles will, which is pretty much the only way for an app to drain battery life. If you kill an app and want to load it up again, it now has to load everything from the internal memory, rather than the RAM, taking longer and using up more of your battery. To test this just grab one of the many battery monitoring apps (I use GSam) and check the battery % usage of apps compared to how long it has been running. Just start up a game and then switch to your browser and don't open the game for a few hours. Now look at that nice 0.0% usage with a few hours of it running (provided it didn't get removed from the RAM to make room for newer apps.) If you really want to increase battery life, reduce your brightness. Even at roughly half-way, I can get more than 90% of my battery loss through the screen being on. Thanks for your post, I know you're a knowledgeable person in this, so I guess I'll follow your advice. I wonder why being able to kill all came built into my cell's android though. Probably has to do with the version (2.3.5 in my phone and 4.1 in the Nexus) I guess if it's just in a frozen state in the RAM it's alright. I already have the screens in both my phone and the tablet on the lowest luminosity. It's still worth killing apps that you don't plan to use for a while so you don't run low on RAM. I know my old Motorola Milestone would start to freeze up if I had too many apps in the background. Might not be such a big problem with a newer phone though.
  14. I'd upgrade the GPU if you have games that could use the upgrade. Otherwise just wait a while.
  15. It's on my 18th birthday to do list. I'd probably just play poker and blackjack though, slots have never seemed appealing to me.

  17. Here is a transcript of what he said: "There are 47% of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47% who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it...These are people who pay no income tax, 47% of Americans pay no income tax. So our message of low taxes doesn't connect. So he'll (President Obama) be out there talking about tax cuts for the rich. I mean, that's what they sell every four years. And so my job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. What I have to do is convince the five to ten percent in the center that are independents, that are thoughtful, that look at voting one or the other depending upon in some cases emotion, whether they like the guy or not." I'd say it looks more like a Rep. house and a Dem. senate. Elizabeth Warren is ahead in the last 5 polls in MA, the latest WI and VA polls show the race either tied or favoring the Dem. candidate, Ohio and Florida have solid Dem. leads, and even Montana and Indiana look close. I know exactly what he said. And nowhere in that quote does he call anyone a "taxless worker" or a "leech". The way I'm reading the bolded lines are "do what you want, this is America after all!", not "get out of my [bleep]ing country, you leeches!" Romney is painting nearly half the country as irresponsible and self entitled. How you see that as him preaching freedom is beyond me.

  19. How can you defend Romney calling half of America irresponsible leeches? They didn't create the tax code, and it's laughable that Romney, who uses every legal deduction in the book and then some, would attack them for not paying income taxes as if it were their choice. They still pay payroll taxes too, which make up almost as large of a percentage of the federal revenue as income tax does. As for foreign policy, Romney chose to attack Obama for something he never said, and made a fool of himself in the process. The media would be biased if they didn't cover it. You can't say the media has a left bias when Fox news is essentially Republican propaganda, CNN is center-right to center at most, and the only TV network that has any sort of left bias is MSNBC.
  20. Not to mention income tax isn't the only form of tax people pay.
  21. I wouldn't call it media bias at all. What Romney said wasn't a gaffe or a mistake. He attacked nearly half of America. “These are people who pay no income tax,” “My job is is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.” Basically he's saying that if you aren't in the top 50% of income earners, you are a lowlife with no responsibility. Which is funny coming from the guy whose job was to fire workers making a decent wage and replace their positions with low paying jobs to increase profits. This along with his terrible response to the Middle East crisis shows he is completely unprepared to govern a nation.
  22. How good do you have to be to get involved in these leagues? I'm a decent scout and I can pubstomp on most servers, but I'd probably get crushed against good players.

    Manitoba. I'd love to go to a university in America, but I couldn't afford it. I'll probably be living at home for at least the first two years anyways. I ended up dropping the chemistry course and picking up law, which should be an easy 90%.
  24. jasignhagj replied to Leoo's topic in Off-Topic
    I'm taking a first year university chemistry class through my high school. It covers the exact same course material as the university course, and we do weekly labs at the university. Part of the class is online assignments, and to get to the assignments you need an access code which can only be acquired with a new textbook. We also need to buy a lab workbook, which I haven't seen the price of yet. I might drop it though, it's going to be over $500 with the books and my mother wants me to pay for it, and she'll pay me back if I pass. Plus it affects my university GPA and I'd rather focus on getting decent grades in my other classes so I can hopefully get direct admission into the UofM engineering school.
  25. jasignhagj replied to Leoo's topic in Off-Topic
    Seriously, [bleep] universities that require you to buy a $170 textbook for a class that you rarely use just to get an online pass so you can do online assignments. If all my classes are like this next year when I start university I'm going to be screwed for money.
