Hey folks, this is NOT meant to be a smear campaign, or the go ahead to spam their Deviantart site (Please don't, Dave is having it handled on his own, and you may only hurt his case, along with your own accounts). However, the user account http://evilfx.deviantart.com despite being on there for over a year now, in indeed a false account, created by someone with a personal grudge against David Carpenter. I know a lot of us have fav'd the account, and this is why I brought it up. You see, the real David Carpenter, Evil-Fx, finally started his own account a few months back. The other day, I am sure the few of us who watch the "evilfx" page, noticed a journal go up, saying…

This is old news but Western Digital releases world's first 1 TB internal hard drive. The average laptop hard drive 9.5mm but the new one is 12.5mm which means it may not fit in some of the laptops out there. Seagate will soon be releasing their own as well. URL Scorpio Blue If you have a HP dv7 or similar 17" laptops with one or two hard drives, you may be able to use these hard drives. For example, my dv7-1285dx can be upgraded for a max. of 2 TB up from my current 1 TB or the original spec of 500 GB. Incidently, early 2009 Seagate released a external 2.5" 1 TB portable hard drive as well. I have two of them. They are thicker and slightly larger than your average ext…

Saw it! loved it! Wihtout saying too much to spoil it. The movie was a really good story and amazing effects. First movie I've seen in modren 3d so was a big surprise so see 3D really working well. Anyway just to say, if you've not seen it and have the option of seeing it in 3D, I'd recommend going to see it while you can.

hi all. I think we need a new subsection for the "techie" stuff since no debate is involved here. Not to mention that we have no section dedicated to seeking help. Asking technical help from a debate section doesn't seem to be appropriate. Anyway, i'm really stumped. My pc is shot and i'm trying to fix it without having to replace everything, because its an old model (p4 dual core bought on 2007). I first tested the memory and it failed so i bought a new ram (1gb ddr2 667). It detects the ram now when it boots up, but it won't get past the boot screen. Cmos checksum fail appears so i changed the cmos battery. No effect. Removed all peripherals and still no good. I'm star…

I just saw this movie yesterday, and I can honestly say this is one of my favorite science fiction films of all time. Sharlto Copley gives an excellent performance considering this is his first real film. The CGI is amazing and the alien weaponry effects are pretty brutal.

Well the movie is out. What did you all think of it? I rather enjoyed it. And my date, who really isnt into Star Trek liked it to. Granted I'd have to see the movie all over again to put my own little summary like I wanted to do with Cloverfield. But hey, it gives me a reason to se the movie again I do like how it started off with the Kelvin. But what I liked the most of the movie which sealed my fate into seeing it, was the Enterprise's design from the very first trailer. It had more features of the Refit/1701-A which lead me to believe it was going to be a Hybrid of both the TOS and TMP ships. Which I loved. But what confused me the most was Engineering. There was no …

This is a really cool show on SpikeTV. It answers the question: Which of history's greatest warriors would win in a battle to the death??? The show features guys doing various tests with the weapons of each combatant to determine who would win. They use state-of-the-art computers & equipment to help. They use ballistics gel with skulls & other internal stuff inside to be on the receiving end of the weapons testing. Blood & brain matter ends up going all over the place as a result of these tests. After the tests, they run 1000 battle simulations and whoever won the most of the thousand, would be declared the deadliest. These are the combatants who've be…

If anyone else has heard, X-Men Origins Wolverine leaked out onto the internet. Alot of the SFX is unfinished and wires can be seen in several scenes, but has anyone else seen it? I thought it was better than X-Men 3, but not quite as good as the original X-Men. Overall, the fights were totally badass.

I told myself not to buy another phone until next year, but my phone is starting to die on me. I had it for like 4 years now and I normally wouldn't change phones unless necessary. But dropping a call when I'm right in the middle of a conversation is just not right anymore. Anyways, I've narrowed down my choices for two phones. And it is still Nokia phones. I do understand that there are better phone manufacturers out there with more complete features, but I don't want to have to adopt to another system again. So I was wondering if any of you guys have any idea about the Nokia 6600 fold and the Nokia 6267. I've been thinking about which of these two I'm getting …

hey guys, I'm interested in learning what you eat. I'm mainly interested in breakfasts at the moment.. I want to elarn what people around he world eat for breakfast. generally in hte UK, we will eat breakfast cereal. cornflakes or rice crispies with milk. or some other similar boxed grain based food. just recently I have gone off it. the idea of a bowl of grain stuff covered in milk just isn't appealing anymore. I sometimes force myself to eat it just so I have eaten something.. but i want an alternative. I know that in japan they often have miso soup for breakfast. I think I might like that, but the only miso soup i could get was some powdered stuff off the inter…

Alternatives to Sade LP's The Auto Assault-12 (AA-12) is a fully automatic, recoilless shotgun that can fire 300 rounds per minute. That is a lot of zombies my friend. Okay, so a UAV that can stab zombies from the sky does not currently exist - but that would be one hell of a weapon. A V8 powered chainsaw is probably not the best choice in terms of mobility, but if you could somehow attach it to the front of your truck the carnage you could inflict on a crowd of zombies would be epic. Being able to reload quickly is essential when being swarmed by zombies. The FAST (Fast And Smooth Transition) system can help by providing a quick release magazine for your M-1…

Has anyone else seen this? I saw it for free with my wife (her dad paid for the tickets). I thought the first half was pretty funny, the twist in it rather surprised me to say the least. I just wish the movie was longer than 93 minutes. Too short.
