    Having been a huge fan of Bionicle since the very week the first sets came out, it's been a large part of my life growing up (but not my whole life, obviously). To a true fan, it would be ridiculous to not feel sad about its ending.

     

    Bionicle is NOT just any old kid's toy line, as Miss Bianca said. Do you see this many dedicated fans and this deep of a storyline on every toy line out there? They are few and far between.

     

    People who are flaming on BZP at Lego for this, and saying their whole life is ruined? They're overreacting, of course. But there should be more sadness than "I've always been a huge fan, but I'm not sad whatsoever."

    I've never heard anything about that, I've transfered FLACs via rar files between my computers before. FLACs aren't a file type with tons of special properties, they're just a music file with no compression into mp3 or similar. They work like any other file in regards to copying and zip/rar/7z'ing them, to my knowledge.

    Well, there are always limits to how much you can compress files. You aren't going to magically get a 50% compressed file, unfortunately. I might suggest putting it in a .rar or possibly a .7z (using the program 7Zip). You won't get very low with the compression ratio, but I believe those are the most efficient algorithms to try.

    But now you must truly know that the true question is, "How well does it surf?"

    Mostly downhill, incredibly fast, mostly orange and red blocks. Pretty intense.

    But now you must truly know that the true question is, "Will it blend?"

    You'd be better off getting a desktop PC if you wanna play PC games.

     

    |-|\/|

    I am aware of that. The whole thing is, I need a laptop, period. I've got a desktop PC already which I use for work and have been using for gaming. I did find a quite nice laptop for gaming and media, which suits my purposes. 500GB hard drive, Core 2 Duo processor, 4 GB RAM, 64-bit OS, and an NVidia GeForce graphics card I've researched to find it to be more than enough for the games I'm interested in.

     

    Ah yes, and for games it can't handle that I'm interested in, there is most likely an Xbox 360 version for them. Problem solved. =P

     

    Also there's the dilemma of me not exactly having another desk in the house to put another desktop computer on. =P

     

    I'll get a desktop PC optimized for gaming someday, but at the moment I need a laptop.

    This is a pretty standard spam e-mail, I've received several like it. They all have poor grammar and spelling. I enjoy reading the occasional spam I get, it is sometimes quite hilarious. I'll even be posting a couple of mine in my blog sometime.

     

    As for how they got BZP e-mail addresses, that is disturbing, but hopefully not a problem. I haven't received such e-mails myself (at least yet).

    Even though I already knew all this list from before you posted it, it's aaaaawesome. WAY more than I've ever got for a single one of my birthdays. You should really consider yourself insanely lucky.

     

    Halo: Combat Evolved for PC

    custom edition > normal version. Download it.

    You should keep in mind that he's running this on a netbook, the Dell Mini he mentioned. Is Custom Edition any more graphics- or CPU-intensive? One more thing, does it replace your current Halo or add another executable? I'd like to know all this because I'm one of the people he multiplayers with, and I only heard about Custom Edition last night by chance. =P

    For like a week and a half, my Adblock Plus -actually blocked- all Hulu ads. That was a pretty sweet time. I hope the Adblock filters update to be able to do that again sometime.

     

    Also, I get "blocked ads" sometimes on other browsers because of my firewall, that 30 second wait can get annoying.
