  1. i keep my note ii stock. have looked into rooting it but for my needs there aren't that many benefits. i know touchwiz used to have a bad wrap, but its current incarnation is smooth and functional.
  2. BTW Aura, tomorrow if you have time checkout Foals. Outstanding neo-post punk gloomy dance rock. Outstanding stuff, fun but it gets loud and heavy as hell. Blew me away at Bonnaroo.
  3. awesome to hear man glad you are at lolla. i've never been, but would like to make all of the Big 4 before its over with. Already done bonnaroo a few times, need to make coach, lolla, and acl. I also make jazzfest every year, which just misses out being in the big 4.
  4. i use a minidisplay port to hdmi cable to watch streaming youtube stuff (concerts festivals etc) and it works splendidly.
  5. comcast won't let you do hbogo through roku or appletv. you can do hbogo on your laptop and hook it up to your tv?
  6. I love it, except its kind of lame it comes with an Elys rather than an Exact. Will stick with my p3/24 + exact combo.
  7. happy birthday todd!
  8. Yes tell us more about the DAC2 please.
  9. gotcha, just updated my post right when you were replying. thanks for the confirm. as good a reason as ever to pickup a pico in the coming months.
  10. This is weird, as many times as I've "refreshed" on the ticket screen I've never been IP banned. Do you have multiple tabs/browsers open to the TM/LN page?
  11. So I'm really way behind with the times apparently. With the note ii dock, could I use an external USB DAC? woah, so I can just get one of these usb otg cables: http://www.ebay.com/itm/mini-USB-OTG-Host-cable-lead-for-Archos-Home-Tablet-7-/261251996699?pt=US_Tablet_eReader_Chargers_Sync_Cables&hash=item3cd3d51c1b and run a pico straight from my note 2? has the world gone insane? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG7LjVCj50Y shows you how far behind I am on portable audio.

    season 4 spoiler:
  14. At least in my experience, when I hit refresh right at the on sale time, they are never on sale then. Usually 7-14 seconds (second or third click for me) after the on sale time. That's just my experience though.
  15. I still attend a lot of big shows, and unfortunately everything you've said is just how it is now. Sucks but I've long ago accepted it as reality. Whenever its a show I know will be in high demand, I use an atomic clock app, and don't hit refresh until it hits on sale time. But TM/LN time is never right on with the atomic clock, it can be anywhere from seven seconds to a full minute later. I hit refresh every 7-10 seconds after the atomic clock hits onsale, using the seven second rule I have never been IP banned. Then, whatever ticket comes up, if I want to be at the show, I take it. I don't usually buy scalper tickets, but when I do, I use stubhub. I've found good seats on there sometimes for just a few bucks over face. If you are willing to pay market (many people aren't and I completely understand), stubhub is legit. Luckily I catch most of my big name acts at festivals these days, which are easy tickets with a few exceptions (coach and ACL I think). I'll be seeing Pearl Jam and NIN at Voodoo Fest in New Orleans, which is awesome because both of their individual shows are 'spensive.

    4 3 1 2 5 Is probably my order. Though at times I want to put 2 ahead of 1, which is crazy talk I know, but especially my second time running through the series, season 2 hit me hard. I love the Sobotkas.

    Without spoiling anything, every season takes on a different aspect of our culture and its impact on the drug trade and the ensuing socioeconomic consequences. They keep everything very, very fresh, arguably until the 5th season, which is more of a denouement then anything else. Still excellent, and a fitting conclusion, just not on the level of 1-4. Season 3 used to be my favorite season, but once I watched the series through again season 4 became my favorite. Season 4 is just so devastating, I don't think I fully wrapped my head around it the first go round. Be forewarned, a lot of people have difficulty moving from season 1 to season 2, because a bunch of new characters are introduced, and a few different settings as well. You still see all your old friends from season 1, but not as often. Just trust me, stick with it and soon you'll be just as attached to the new characters as to the old.
  22. PM sent.
  23. I asked Melody if we'd tried Arugula, and she said we did without good results. But, that was back in the early days of our VItamix before we developed a tolerance to greens. I say wild and crazy go nuts, go for it. Worse case scenario you'll be having a fancy salad with the leftovers.
  24. nah he just needs some VHS head cleaner. i know a guy in the back of a bar at the end of bourbon street who can hook you up.
  25. sounds awesome! kale is so awesome, and we use it frequently in smoothies, but it definitely has a distinctive earthy/dirt taste. spinach is so much milder, I can put multiple handfuls of spinach in a smoothie and barely taste it at all.
