I'm serious, the Subway foot longs are like 8-9 bucks each.
RIP OFF Stand your ground and demand justice be brought upon the price gougers. Victory and glory for the kingdom!

So, my girlfriend found this Alienware laptop on craigslist for $500, which is a pretty decent price for Alienware. Her dad and his girlfriend told her she can't/shouldn't get it because there could be kiddie porn on it and she could go to jail.
I don't think it'd be that hard of a problem to fix honestly. Even on the off chance there is kiddie porn on it for whatever reason, the cops aren't going to get involved unless the guy selling the laptop called the cops almost immediately after selling it to her.
Of course even if the cops were involved, they'd still have to get a warrant. In that time wouldn't a reformat solve the problems?
Edit: oh hey sweet, page opener Not hard either way.
If they know what day you bought the computer, the files have the date and time of when they were last modified. It would be really hard to pin it on you, neigh impossible. Plus when buying a used computer you should reformat anyway.

Though, this month, the subway at the Uni has been doing the $5 any foot long February (i think they're forced to)
So I'm taking advantage of that. but after that, it's back to the arm and leg prices.
I might just get salad starting next month. the salads at the uni dining hall are like $5 too.

Quetzalcoatl.Xueye said: »After 3 days of trying, I finally fixed my laptop. That saves me a good 1,800$ right there. Should still get that Asus, lol.
true, and I should totally not try to view this thread to see how the conversation went on the way to work and smash the entire right side of my car into several fence posts, smash my taillight, headlight, windshield, both doors and windows. I'm confused, did that happen or are you attempting humor?
any questions?
edit: and I just realized that my phone doesn't take half bad photos...

depends on the subway and the footlong, not all participate in the promotions.
the other month participating ones had all footlongs for $5 each.

Plus when buying a used computer you should reformat anyway. I think they just googled alienware and the first news article that came up had something to do with child porn being on it because they crossed the meixcan border or something. But the images were "encrypted". Kinda reminds me of people at work who are afraid to use their CC online but are okay faxing it... Hell we've had people fax us documents that have their social security number on it.
Clearly our website is a target for identity theft.

it's call mass hysteria, people are afraid of what they don't know. Speaking of which, why do people feel like it's okay to be totally unwilling to learn anything about how computers work? I can understand not knowing, but why not try to learn at least basic things? These aren't alien technology, I don't understand why it's socially acceptable to be like "Well I don't know anything about them so I'm just going to be totally ignorant to it and complain about how it doesn't work."
I mainly use this in context to people who use it at work every day and still don't know how to make a word document or save/find a file.

In other news: Been watching a lot of Man V. Food. I found a local place that has a 12lb hamburger. You have 2 and a half hours to eat it. Once I find out how much it costs, I wanna do it. Prize money is $200, free burger, name on wall of fame, and a T-shirt. I'm going to send you the pic of what was left after I finished eating the 2lb burger. Notice I say "what was left".

I can concur, unless you know the person and you know they take care of it.
if I could find a cheap way to have custom cases made I'd start on my customizable laptop or laptop form factor scheme. I guess I could learn how to do it myself but meh.

That looks way more than 2lbs. The beef was 2lbs. They go by the weight of the meat, not the burger.
I would not recommend attempting the 12lb beast.

I would not recommend attempting the 12lb beast. If you do though, bring some blood thinners. Also, plenty of liquids. That makes the stuff go down quicker.

Honestly, the only way I see it being feasible is if you trained for it. A lot of those gastro-athletes go through years of work to prepare. Also, Adam had a training regiment he did when doing those challenges. I think he had a personal trainer, tbh.

12lbs seems like a lot. ManVFood can only do like 5-10 lbs in an hour.
Maybe if two people could do it. Think of it this way:
48 quarter pounders w/ cheese + other toppings.

That's pretty intense, lol.
Edit: As of 2010-10-05 14:48:06 CST, Ni reached 10,000 pages.
Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
