North Korea
QUOTE (farmteam @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:03 PM) Maybe they'll screw with everyone and launch something at Beijing. You know, something totally out of the blue. If they do that, North Korea will cease to exist.

2013 Video Game Thread
QUOTE (Felix @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 06:03 PM) This truly is a shame. Some of my favorite games growing up were LucasArts productions, including Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Grim Fandango, any of the Monkey Island games (although lets not kid ourselves, they weren't the same from the third release onward), the early Star Wars Jedi Knight games (Dark Forces, DF2, JKII, JA, KOTOR, KOTOR2 etc.) and of course the X-Wing vs Tie Fighter games. Big chunk of my childhood just got shutdown. Wow, Dark Forces... memories of my childhood.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 10:53 AM) LOL, yup, Bernstein is likely a scumbag because he calls out known scumbag Alford. In my book it's not so much that he hates Alford. But he feels the need to bring up something that is almost 10 years old just because he got a new job. I dont remember him going out of his way to turn the NM media against Alford. but now that he's in LA, this is Bernstein's time to get him. He almost seemed to think that clearly UCLA didnt do its research in hiring Alford. because, clearly no college team would want to hire such a horrible human being.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 10:38 AM) Bernstein has always just been so much of an egotistical prick that he veers off what the point should be, in favor of his own personal agendas, which usually is getting the last word in in any debate. It takes away from the show and makes him unbearable at times. he comes across as a self-important bully

Bernstein loathes Steve Alford so much that they are seeking out a member of the LA media that covers UCLA so they can "interview" him and make sure he knows he needs to harass Alford about his time in Iowa.

2013 TV Thread
QUOTE (iamshack @ Mar 27, 2013 -> 09:03 AM) Jeesh, watching Revolution last night reminded me of just how terrible that show is. I didnt think the first episode after the break was that bad... didnt see that end coming. That being said, it's is trending too close to the ratings red line. It's only about a point higher than V, Jericho before they were cancelled and is at the same level as Terra Nova. much like those others, I'd guess this isnt a cheap show to produce. It needs a Solid 8+ to stay alive.

Technology catch-all thread
I need some advice. I am looking for a good online backup option for our photos and some videos. Currently, I use Google Drive, but it's tied to my email address (I have a free Google Apps for business account). It's about $5/month for 100GB of storage. Amazon now has Cloud Drive that is $4.17/month for 100GB of storage. Drop Box is $8.25/month for 100GB, Which is the best option??? I am leaning towards switching to Cloud Drive and setting up an Amazon account that my wife and I can both access (we currently each have separate accounts). The problem I have with Cloud Drive is that you can not upload folders unless you install the app, which I don't want. I don't need the app. I just want to upload the folders. THe app forces my local files to be stored on the computer, i want them on an external drive.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 1, 2013 -> 07:48 AM) What if the Catholic church decided to change to a fixed Sunday but major Protestant denominations didn't? That would make Easter even more confusing. I think the only denomination with enough power to change it for everyone is the catholic church. And honestly, I dont think any denominations would protest too much if a group of denominations like catholic, methodist, lutheran, ect all agreed. the rest would go along. As someone who used to work for a church, I think we'd have been delighted if there was some consistency to the schedule.- 2013 WNBA season thread

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 31, 2013 -> 10:39 AM) Curious, why is it so important to observe the birth of Jesus on the same exact day every year but Easter always falls on a different day? #lame #no_day_off_from_work I agree that it's crazy. I wish they'd just pick a single date every year (or the nearest Sunday). This is from wikipedia: Either way, we have a general idea of when it happened, so I like the idea of the second sunday in April.- Tournament of Bad

So, Urlacher says he wont play for $2m because of what his body has to go through during a season at his age. Under that logic, NFL teams shouldn't pay aging players less due to declining returns, players should get significantly more.- 2013 TV Thread

I agree and I've absolutely noticed #2 a lot. It's a completely different sound - Voyager has finally, officially exited the Heliosphere
