The reason some call it ISIL is because it's a direct translation of "Daesh", which is the Arabic acronym. The "sh" letter stands for "Sham", which is the levant.

Hey. Hey. Random thought here:
If you're developing a game right now, and you're thinking of making an underwater world. STOP. Just stop.

I liked their dialogue on the subject actually.

Oh boy. I love talk radio. It's filled with helpful and informative information that isn't the slightest bit sensationalized or skewed for entertainment or shock value at all.

She sucks real bad. Let the sky fall on her. Most music today is crap, in my opinion. I still buy CDs because I'll be damned if I have to listen to the radio and to me, I need that tangible piece that connects me with the last era where music was still awesome.
There are certain bands today that I'm still a huge fan of, but most of those have roots from the era where music was still awesome.
To me, I feel like Don McLean's epic "American Pie" isn't speaking of Disco, but rather the abomination that is "music" past the mid-2000's.
You all can keep your whips and your nae naes, I'll be forever cemented with black hole suns and heart-shaped boxes. I have a Rock radio station near me that is also mostly stuck in the past. Least I haven't heard anything you listed on it before, aside from American Pie anyhow.
It is great.

*** Adele and *** Windows anything.
I suggested you burnt in the system with a diag tool to avoid frustrations. Since you wiped the darnedest thing already and it kept giving you headaches hardware fault is a possibility you should consider.
Usually, when I have time to spare, I get some small harddrive and install the desired OS on the computer (while keeping it's original OS install as is) then proceed to try to use it with that expendable OS, to see how it behaves.
More than often there's a hardware fault and the OS is not to blame. I remember 20 years ago reinstalling the OS every couple of months was common, due to the DLL poisoning problem. A really annoying problem.

I bought my nephew an e-book for Christmas, when I wrap it, should I put the tag as being from me or from Santa?

Two things I'm observing with smart phones being everywhere:
1) My students (college freshmen) are not as capable with computers as people my age (I'm 28). I presume it's because with my age group, all of the stupid crap like Facebook, etc, were done exclusively through a computer, whereas kids these days can do that stuff on a phone or tablet. The result is that about half the kids I teach (as computer-focused course) don't know how to find the C: on their own.
2) People (or specifically, co-workers) expect that you'll check your email frequently since a lot of people can access them through their phone. The result is that some time sensitive things get drawn out much longer than they need to be.

there was a gif/video on reddit a few days ago that was a 3D model representation of what the operation of a sex change from male to female looks like.
now my perception of transgender peeps is all weird now

Asura.Floppyseconds said: »On another note. A simple troubleshooting drivers causing Blue Screens of Death turned into never getting to that step.
Figured it was a conflict with 8.1 and some random driver. So, let's just go to 10 and then troubleshoot. Maybe it won't even happen anymore.
So, in order to do that we have to get the old 8 updates never installed out of the way.
Install them, fine, restart, some critical error flashes. Then we can't even boot at all. Just "insert media and press any key" after the BIOS screen.
So... now the ***has hit the fan..
Have to burn a Windows 8 recovery media to my flashdrive, which takes ~1:45:00 of the 3ish I have total left. Nothing is working so I say *** it and restore back.
Fine, we are back to last week on the PC. Everything is fine.
Updates install fine. We are good. I go "hey let's restart to see if it all works before I send you home".
*** desktop is no longer accessible apparently the error keeps spamming me with.
Restart again hoping it goes away, and it doesn't.
Go to restore. The restore points are all gone and it is off for some reason..
So, then there is the freakout I have to get nailed with as if I wanted this to happen.
Now, I will be up all night fixing this. Reformatting, reinstalling, reupdating, going to 10, and then making sure it all works so I can give this back in the morning. Drive 7.5 hours to class after doing no assignments obviously, annnnnd then shot myself in the head.
What blue screen are you getting?

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
