  1. Dusty, the spacers will be good for added airflow between the cooler and the bottom of the laptop. **BRENT**
  2. I bet if you had a Kirk with DA9700 and Lightweight wheels, you'd be able to keep up. **BRENT**
  3. New Magic Lantern Improvement Adds 3 Stops of Dynamic Range to 5DIII and 7D Some interesting stuff for a couple of cameras that have "Dual ISO" processors, I believe. I have a buddy who is geeking out about it and thinking about putting ML on his 5D3. You shoot half the lines in ISO100, half in ISO1600 (at the same time), and it makes a composite which can be nice. Each of these cams can do it with stills, but the 5D3 can do it with video as well. Lots of links to technical stuff in the link above. **BRENT**
  4. http://gizoogle.net/ For example: http://gizoogle.net/index.php?search=head-case.org&se=Gizoogle+Dis+Shiznit Or perhaps gizoogle a NYTimes article. You may be amused. **BRENT**
  5. WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe for PC or MAC for free http://dealmac.com/Win-X-HD-Video-Converter-Deluxe-for-PC-or-Mac-downloads-for-free/791823.html I've used the MacX DVD ripper for Windows since they gave it away last year and it worked well for me, so figure this is decent as well. Looks like it lets you grab YouTube videos as well, which could come in handy at some point. **BRENT**
  6. For you jetsetters out there, from David Pogue: Here's a free 3-month coupon code for Clear (normally $180 a year), the program that lets you breeze through security at certain airports (SFO, Denver, White Plains, Orlando, Dallas so far). At clearme.com, use code CLRJUL413. I'm sure some of you will be hitting at least SFO and Dallas, maybe Denver in the next few months. **BRENT**
  7. http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/milesdavis.asp I still don't care. **BRENT**
  8. I don't know if this is true or not, but I don't care. Love it. **BRENT**
  9. I remember putting ice in the garbage disposal when we had one growing up to kind of "clean it out." I would imagine small chunks/slivers of ice would be able to scrape off some of the remaining residue (perhaps along with some dish soap), then wash normally. Or maybe it wouldn't, but I'm interested to know what would work, for some reason. **BRENT**
  10. I thing Gene has the Scott Sub 10, but it's just another company's version of the same style bike. Like I said elsewhere, he'll be on a CAAD10 105/Rival/Ultegra bike soon enough **BRENT**
  11. Yeah. I blame Canada. Hoping this one doesn't get to the point where the other one was before I get to the ENT, but I'm expecting a trip to the care center at work before week's end if the progression is similar. **BRENT**
  12. So I think I talked about an ear ache in here a while back. I finally got my ENT appointment scheduled for 12 days from now, but it seems that I may have an ear infection popping up in my right (other) ear now, after having problems with the left since early June. Awesome. **BRENT**

  14. Prince? **BRENT**
  15. Past two night the Steamland map has been in my dreams. I think I will know it better tonight. **BRENT**
  16. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBFYpcWsYbE <3 this engagement video **BRENT**
  17. If you're worried about isolation at all, it's nowhere near Ety levels, but at low volume with music playing, I don't hear anything going on around me. Also, I find with the headband, the fit/positioning is easier to get at least "close to right" much more quickly than without it. **BRENT**
  18. Well, the tips take a little bit to get used to. I know at one point a couple of us were in talks with an IEM maker (not JH Audio) about getting custom tips made. It took me a little bit to get the best fit, and not until I tried different tips for different ears did the magic happen, as they say. I think I said this earlier: medium tip in one ear, large tip in the other, and they fit great! Oh, I WAS able to squeeze some large Comply tips over them, and they worked really well. Unfortunately, they only lasted a few days, as they ripped apart. Perhaps if there were even larger diameter ones, it would work, but they really were comfy. I would get some odd noises which I thought was something with the headphones during/around some insertions, until I realized it was just a fit thing. Now? Why, I just listen to the beautiful, beautiful music (or audiobooks, or bad music, at times). I do hear stuff on some of my most played albums I've never heard before. There's a word for this low level detail... can't think of it at the moment, though. I'm sure someone can help. I bought 8 AA Eneloops and rotate them out. I typically get through a day of listening at work, which winds up being 5-6 hours. **BRENT**
  19. 002 and 003 are the same headphones, just a different cable (002 portable, 003 goes with the 005 system, which has a pro bias plug, IIRC). I wound up going with a medium tip in one ear, large tip in the other ear, and have been happy. I typically use it with the headband, as it's easier to deal with at work, but with the mismatched tips, I'm good with just having them as in-ears. If you wanted portable, and not *just* transportable, though, the 002s are great. There have been adapters made, but I don't think there was even an "official" adapter. I don't have a home stat amp, and probably never will, but if I did, I'd definitely look into those. **BRENT**
  20. I guess you would be looking at 003s. Get some and try them out **BRENT**
  21. Oh, you said 202, not 002. Well, 002s are still really good. I going to go work on my sporadic dyslexia. **BRENT**
  22. I got my Stax 002s from Justin/HeadAmp months ago. I listen to them at work often. They're rather good. Good enough I haven't thought about JH13s in a long time. **BRENT**
  23. 3D printed SLR for 30$ in parts http://www.theverge.com/2013/7/8/4503836/3d-printing-maniac-builds-film-slr-camera **BRENT**
  24. iTunes 5th anniversary: free appstravaganza. "So far, games such as Infinity Blade II, Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP, Where's My Water?, Badland and Tiny Wings (iPhone / iPad) are all on offer for nothing, alongside apps such as the beautiful photo-annotating app Over, Traktor DJ (iPhone / iPad), Day One, Over, How to Cook Everything, and Barefoot World Atlas." http://www.theverge.com/2013/7/8/4502810/ios-apps-and-games-go-free-five-years-after-app-store-launched I picked up Infinity Blade II and Traktor DJ so far. Anything else that's a "must buy for 0$?" **BRENT**
