QUOTE (Felix @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 02:37 PM) Requiem for a Dream was awful. The collective parts were good, but the movie was just terrible. It's actually one of my favorite films.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 02:33 PM) You honestly liked THE FOUNTAIN? It was ambitious, I'll give him that....and very "interesting" to watch in some parts, but I'd be hard pressed to say it wasn't disappointing on many levels. It's his only film that I haven't seen to be honest.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 02:27 PM) What about School of Rock? I thought that was actually a pretty good one... Yeah that was solid. He's had a handful of good films but overall I don't care for his work.

Going to see Black Swan this weekend. Looking forward to it. I've yet to be disappointed by Aranofsky.

Ever think about taking this two person conversation offline via PM?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) I enjoyed High Fidelity, Tenacious D pick of destiny, and Saving Silverman. /ducks Who are you kidding? I know you have the Criterion Collection Blu Ray of The Holiday.

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 01:19 PM) Anything starring Jack Black looks like ass. fixed

Well stated. ^^^

As long as you have opposable thumbs you're considered intelligent because you can then use them to build things.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 08:27 AM) Intelligent yes, on par with? GMAFB. Seeing that you're an expert in this field I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Happy birthday!!

Would anyone like to try some of my Bombay Sapphire?

Emphasis mine

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 06:53 PM) I've rooted my phone, but never found tips on what to do so after rooting it. How do I put a different ROM on it? I might just unroot my phone. No don't unroot! There are a ton of threads on XDA to help you along. Which phone do you have? This is from the EVO subforum but should apply to any android phone.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 12:34 PM) Yeah, I don't run HTC Sense anyway. LauncherPro + Beautiful Widgets. But it's still on your OS with lots of HTC crap running in the background. Or are you on an AOSP ROM?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 12:23 PM) Edit: and I don't mean to say "normal" or "natural" with any sort of right/wrong or moral connection Then what connection are you trying to make? Your statement seems to imply that you feel it's not normal or natural.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 12:23 PM) I don't really have a bias, i'm just curious how far people are willing to extend these "protections." And i'm not characterizing ALL gay people as that. I'm sure the vast majority are content living their lives and not being outspoken about how they think people should feel about them. But you can't deny that there's a pretty loud segment that appear to want more than just equality. They want to be treated equal (totally valid and fair and I agree), but they also want people to view their lifestyle as normal and natural. That's where I disagree. I'm 100% for people's rights to do whatever they want in life in this respect, and the government shouldn't play any part in it. But I just can't go that far. Nor do I think that government should be involved in that either. Sometimes I think these protections do that. Colorado a few years back had a state vote on legislation which basically said equality laws ok, but preferential laws are not ok. The Supreme Court said they couldn't do that. Cite some examples of this for us please. And how exactly can someone make you like something?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 12:16 PM) Then I will be running that s***. Yeah I'll be all over that once they come out with the new version. Just so you know it's not a Sense based ROM. Not sure if you knew that. HTC Sense apps and widgets won't work on it. But all of that HTC stuff is bloat that makes the OS run slower as well as take up way too much internal memory. If you love their widgets like the clock you could always find comparable replacements on the market such as Beautiful Widgets.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 11:09 AM) And Bigsqwert, you can call me a bigot all you want, but you're blind if you don't think members of the gay community want more than just equality. They want people to not only accept the fact that they're gay, but like it and agree with it. By calling me a bigot and my opinions stupid you've just proven that point. You are seriously delusional.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 10:36 AM) I feel though that too often the gay community wants to force people to accept them and their lifestyle more than just being equal with them. Well they are currently not treated as equals. Why is it so hard for you understand that after so many examples have been cited here. This whole thread is about them currently being kicked out of the armed forces for simply being gay. Why is is that you think they are asking to be more than equal? It makes no sense.

Happy birthday fellas!

Also, the 4G coding they did is going to be better than what HTC implemented. The guys working on the code, from the ground up, noted that the HTC coding for 4G was pretty awful and it should work better when cyanogen implements it. And once they do, any AOSP ROM will be able to us it such as MUIU which is the iphone looking ROM.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 10:47 AM) Yeah, but those don't support GPS and other critical functions. I want a legit release. Are you rooted? From what I hear, Cyanogen will be releasing a new stable version any day now with Gingerbread and working 4G. They already have GPS working. HDMI out will be the only thing left on their list.
