I'm trying to distract myself from writing my thesis. I'm an animal person. I study your gray thinky thing. Ask me anything!

I saw someone selling a broken R9 290 (reference cooler) on Craigslist for pretty cheap. I've been looking to tinker around with computer stuff for a while, so I figured it was worth the gamble and picked it up. Now I turn to you guys, because you know a fair bit more than I do about electronics...

I'm not sure what the protocol for selling stuff on the forum is, but I'd rather give a forumite a crack at this before trying to sell it for more elsewhere. If this is against the rules I'll delete this post. A friend of mine gave me a good deal on his R9 280X and, as such, I'm looking to...

An Aussie friend of mine sent me this today. I...don't even know what to say. http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/victoria/panel-beater-had-about-60-bongs-40-stubbies-before-shooting-intruder-dead-court-told-20141007-10r9xk.html

So, since I keep hearing about/finding a lot of these, I figured I'd start my own thread. Basically, I try to find deals where--if you equate cash and Amazon/Wal-Mart credit--you can get a lot more bang for your buck. First up: until 10/11/14, Wal-Mart is doing an extra 50% trade-in credit on...

Hey, all; forgive me if this is posted, but I haven't seen this before. If you're interested in a Wii U / 3DS, Nintendo sells official refurbished items on their website (https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/browse/category.jsp?categoryId=cat20002&parentCategory=cat10001) at pretty reasonable...

‘It’s a standard procedure, a tiny little thing.’ The hospital begins to fade as dreams begin to sing: you dream of family, dream of friends, somber and in black of being carried, like a king, your body lax and slack. You drift awake and realize that you weren’t within a dream the smell of dirt...

www.scp-wiki.net I found this site a while ago, but--remembering we have quite a few writers on the site who enjoy CreepyPasta--I thought I'd post it here in case anybody hadn't seen it yet. It's a collection of in-universe documentation of anomalous/supernatural creatures, artifacts and...

Hey, all, I signed up for this a while ago (still no idea why I did, since I have no interest in it really), but my number was apparently pulled and I now have a code you can use to buy the Explorer version of Google Glass. If you want it just let me know; I'd be happy to provide!

So I taught myself to cook several years ago (and have a few tasty dishes to my name), but I've noticed recently that I have very little knowledge of the theory behind what makes these dishes tasty beyond snippets such as, "Lemon + garlic + sage = AWESOME." Additionally, I've noticed I'm fairly...

So, in addition to the aforementioned kittens my fiance and I arefostering, she brought home a pregnant momma cat. We came home tonight and she's giving birth! Updates and photos to follow :)

So I was on Reddit earlier today and saw that Samuel L. Jackson had posted this: http://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/1f9x5y/im_samuel_l_jackson_and_ill_record_a_video_of_me/?sort=top Basically, he'll make an audio clip of him reading the top-voted comment (as of tonight, Thursday) and post...

Hey, everyone, So, as you might have seen, my fiancé and I are fostering nine kittens from a local shelter: However, these little guys (well, 6 little guys and 3 little girls) don't have names, so we've just been calling them by their coat colors. We've gotten to name a lot of kittens...

Assload of foster kittens!!!

Christopher Lee (yes, THAT Christopher Lee) is making a metal album. Arranged by Judas Priest's guitarist. http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/upcoming_releases/90-year-old_legendary_actor_christopher_lee_set_to_unleash_a_metal_album_next_week.html Edit: Apologies. In my excitement, I...

There is no absence of sound as the hunter pulls the trigger: a breath shuffles from the black Labrador, its tail making waves in an ocean of reeds; water drips from the hunter’s glasses, bursting against the wooden stock; a bird’s wings whisper in the sky, a trailing song in the wind. There...

Everybody else was doing it, but I sorta missed out. Ergo, ask me anything and I will answer!

Hey, everybody, So my fiance's laptop for vet school (an Asus X401a loaded with Windows 7) randomly decided to start giving us issues. Specifically, while Google Chrome loads fine and we can access websites, any time we try to load a window (i.e. Control Panel, My Computer, attach files to an...
