  1. New HTC One

    Personally I like this phone a lot better than the GS4. I have a relative who for legal reasons will remain nameless that works as a manager at a major cell phone providers store. I was able to play w/both phones side by side. There are pros & cons to both. There are tons of reviews you can go look at that compare the two. The Cameras are very comparable. The screens are very comparable. The HTC One is far better built and much more durable. The GS4 is cheap feeling and when next to the GS3 hardly looks like a different phone at all. And if you have a GS3 you'd be wasting money to upgrade to the GS4. The Processor is slightly faster in the GS4, but eats battery like nothing else. Yes the GS4 has a slightly larger battery, but the battery doesn't last as long due to the cpu eating it alive. When we compared them the HTC's battery lasted longer. Both of the phones have swipe for text if you like that feature. (Some people do, some don't) The speakers on the HTC are very nice and blow the GS4 away. Cameras are comparable. Leaning a bit towards the GS4 unless you are in low light if you are the HTC takes a much better picture. For me the overall feel of the HTC is better, and it is just a much more solid phone. Had the GS4 come out at the same time as the One instead of a week or 2 later I would still have bought the HTC One. To sum it all up. Not only does it compare to the upcoming phones it easily competes with them.
  2. New HTC One

    Biggest surprise of all is that those speeds (And they have been consistently good) are from AT&T on their LTE network.
  3. New HTC One

    Picked the HTC One up on Friday. I have to say that so far it has lived up to my expectations and then some. I had an iPhone and was tired of the Apple proprietary BS. This phone rocks. And so far the battery life hasn't been a problem. Also the LTE speeds have been very nice. SpeedTest.net App: Test Date: Apr 20, 2013 7:47:51 am Connection Type: Lte Server: Clovis, NM Download: 23979 kbps Upload: 12508 kbps I'm extremely happy I didn't buy another IOS device. $199.00 w/contract -$100.00 rebate for pre-register & mailing in my POS iPhone 3 (from ages ago) Total cost $99.00 For a kick ass phone.
  4. Yes, yes I can... I drink so I'll forget!
  5. Never take a woman with an adams apple home.... Man I wish I had listened.
  6. The problem with the HG title was that there were very few of us that held that title that were actually "Honorable" which very much defeated the point. I'd be fine with HG coming back as long as it wasn't just for time/post count like it used to be. It needs to be reflective of the type of community member, not the time they've been here or how many spam posts they have.
  7. Java was only one thing listed (And clearly not impressive). However, they were able to hack all 3 major web browsers as well as Win 8. I find it a bit interesting that it was that easy.
  8. Chrome, Firefox, IE 10, Java, Win 8 All Hacked At Pwn2Own - Slashdot That's right during one hacker convention in Canada they successfully hacked Chrome, Firefox, IE 10, Windows 8, & Java. Of course the Java hack took about 10 seconds but still.
  9. Not to sound arrogant, but I'm my own hero.
  10. 2 & thanks
  11. I like Ink when it's done well and has a logical reason behind it. That being said I probably won't do any myself. But every time I see someone with katakana/kanji on themselves I think of this.
  12. Kinda ties into this article from Harvard Law. Regarding the myth that "more guns = more violent crime" http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/jlpp/Vol30_No2_KatesMauseronline.pdf
  13. NHL Lockout Over!

    You don't have to be Canadian to appreciate Hockey! It's about Fucking time!
  14. Truth is that Spartan invented a time machine. I'm loving the retro flashback, but can't wait for things to get back to normal. Thanks for all the work Spartan, et al.
  15. Deathmatch/Elimination that worked would be nice, but isn't neccesary. We need to get rid of standard CSS maps and put GG maps in their place. That and it's lagging and disconnecting like mad right now. Thank you muchly.
  16. Good to hear.. now I just need to get home from work.
  17. Unfortunately I didn't get to know you as well as I would have liked. I probably played more GG with mini-cloud than I did in-game playing with you. I feel your pain. It's hard to see the changes that have happened. I was proud of obtaining the rank of LG. I felt like I was part of something bigger, something worth being a part of. I was also one of the CA's that despite my ridiculous work schedule did everything I could to be at the meetings and tried to help out any way that I could. When the LG rank went away it was like a slap in the face. I have always tried to be approachable and am only arrogant in a joking manner. Yet some of what I see I'm very saddened by. It was also a slap in the face to be promoted to the position of MA (the very short lived Marketing Admin position) asked to help promote the community only to watch it be sold and the position eliminated before we could implement anything we'd worked on. It does seem a bit colder and impersonal around here now. That does not mean everyone is that way, but there is a very different feel about things. Vent used to be a place I went to unwind and B.S. for hours, but that's changed. Maybe it will become what it once was again. There are very few people left around here that could get me to set aside work long enough to read that long of a post, not to mention all of the replies. You have always set a good example and were someone that I felt if I had any issues I could bring them to you without worry of rebuke or being ignored. And not matter how hard I try I can't think of you as Kennith; you will always be Cloud. Just as Obez will always be Obez and Highsky will never be Thor to me. If you ever need anything let me know. and some things can/will never change... Your mom Cloud, your mom!
  18. I'm always down with free.
  19. Only a Ginger can call another Ginger, Ginger!
  20. The list is way too long.. but here's a few that come to mind. Gaming with the following people in general: Raven, Jack Sparrow, Haggard, Killer Midget, and many others. Specific events that come to mind: -The outing of Jesse, Riggs, Emma. -EvInreal.... and other failed attempts to lash out after being banned. -ZombieBall in general -Raven yelling goodbye cruel world into his mic as he suicides off the rooftop in Napalm at the mere sight of a zombie. -Raven leaving his cade (and taking his couch with him) -Knife rushes (most succeeded) as Terrorists on Vegas with Potshot -GG back when you had to be an admin or donate to get on the server at night. -CA meetings, no really don't hold back... tell us what you really think. -The old admin system. Most of all I miss when I was just working 2 jobs instead of working 2 jobs and going to school. I miss knowing everyone here better due to actually being online more than once a week at best. Last but not least... I remember this thread that got started over 2 years ago about posting your best memories of SG.
  21. I found litkey

    You're not that old! And GET OFF MY LAWN!
  22. I found litkey

    Ah.. the nostalgia. I truly do miss 07. Things were simpler then. Sure there were transgender multiple personalities and the usual excessive amount of drama. But we did seem to have a lot more fun. I'm not bashing SG now or complaining. Just would love to play some Zombieball with Nuggs, Raven, etc.
  23. Unfortunately that too. BTW those that don't know already.. the "Rage" port for PC was horribly done.
  24. It's nice to come back after a month or so of being MIA only to find that some people just won't grow up. Some things never change.
  25. Need...Advice.

    If you can have them go here LEAD WITH LOVE FILM and watch the 35min film. Talks a lot about how their reactions can effect you. Pretty interesting watch. (I know a lot of the people behind this and my work helped setup the site etc) How parents react can/will effect you regardless of whether or not you think it will.
