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. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

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. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

That's exactly what I said when I read that comic eeearly this morning. XKCD is so awesome most of the time.

YEAH, I KNOW, RIGHT? Stop using that acronym for Transformers, Ferret ;_; ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

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. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

Hoo, boy. I guess I owe you guys an explanation for not having blogged since August. ... ANYWAYS, life's been good. Working full-time for my dad's been great, I gots loads of cash. Which I haven't been spending. Yeah. So I plan to remedy that by buying myself a $900 gaming laptop with Windows 7 that came out yesterday (which is veeeeery nice, can't wait until I buy it)! I also want to buy myself an XBox 360 Elite sometime, now that they've come down in price so much. So what else is new? I got Scribblenauts. It is win. Get it. NOW. 2,000+ wordlist containing many, many memes makes me happy. Heck, Laughin'Man and I spent an hour or two yesterday just playing with the various memes on our games! Also, I made myself a new, totally original signoff that I will most likely probably hopefully use! You may or may not have seen it yet. It's based off a signature idea I had for the BS01 Wiki back in 2007. Now this signoff is very, very unnecessarily complicated. And I coded it myself, by hand, no shortcuts. So, behold... MY SIGNOFF! ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH) And now behold... THE CODING BEHIND IT!

Thanks! What do you think? As for what I'll be blogging about in the future: A blog approval. I need to make one. Or pay off someone to make one. Also, I had this idea to blog a series of four humorous spam e-mails I got, one per week. Hopefully that will keep me blogging this time. =P And if I don't, bug me until I blog. Until next time, ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

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). ~

Just let us know when it's sunny again so we can celebrate! =D ~

Oh, Kanye... Not again... ~

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. ~

HE IS EIGHT YEARS OLD? ~

Oh thankees I'll fix the typo. Also, I NEED METROID SHIRTZ NAO. Buy me some while on eBay? =) ~

For obvious reasons, I haven't blogged in a while. Hence, I'll have to write up another one of those huuuuuge what-I've-been-up-to blog entries to make up for it. In the meantime, though, quick list of stuff I got for my birthday (so far, but I'm not sure I'm gonna get any more): $50 from my grandmotherLike 10 mini Reese's cups (my favorite candy EVAR, by the way)Sandish-green T-shirt with oooold classic Mountain Dew logoBlue T-shirt with a whole lot of reasons why being a guy is awesome (Example: being able to shower and get ready to go somewhere within 10 minutes)White T-shirt with Mario Kart Wii logoYellow T-shirt with a Super Mario World design and Japanese textSo yeah, I'll try to get pics eventually, except of the money. =P

Wheee, just under $12? You should have just done what I did and gotten Orange Box for the insane $10 a few months ago. =P Also NO SPOILERS I STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED HL2. It's so unfair you can play HL2 for 19 hours in two days and beat it, while I only get to play maybe a half hour at a time because of my job. D= ~

Woah, this has to be the first time one of your entries has no comments (though for obvious reasons)! Kinda funny! I wish I lived anywhere remotely near Salt Lake, Lego events in stores are always fun. I've been to a couple in the past. By now you might know more about the events, as it's been a month since you posted this and BZP promptly went down, so is there any more you can tell us? ~

=O Didn't I get you into Pokemon in the first place? Yaaaaayz. We simply must exchange F/Cs sometime for Platinum. ~

Not exactly on-topic. =P No, unfortunately I do not, but if you find somewhere let me know! Bowler hats are always cool. ~

Okay, so you probably read my entry about coincidences below, right? Well, it got weirder. Last night, I dreamed about Glatorian Legends finally coming out at my Wal-Mart, and the last part of my dream I was gawking at them on the shelf. I vividly remember all the Glatorian Legends cost exactly $12.66, except Stronius which I was planning to buy on this dream trip to the store. He cost $12.86, and I was upset in my dream about this strange 20 cents more he cost. Oh, and also, the regular Glatorian were on sale, but I don't remember how much. I wasn't focusing on them because I already had all of them. So then I wake up, go through my morning routines, and sat down at my computer. First thing I do is open my browser, on which BZP is set as the homepage. What do I see as the top news article? This. Somebody halp meh pleez D8 Oh, also, I posted this as close to 12:34:56 07/08/09 (Central time) as I could, in celebration of 123456789 Day! =D Darn browser froze as I posted it. It was drafted by the right time, but not published until I could unfreeze the browser... ~

This latest comic is so totally me. I was even planning on playing my new Half-Life 2 for the first time this evening before I read this! Y'see, a couple months ago I bought Orange Box at a crazy $10 price it was selling at for only one weekend. I haven't been able to play it due to two things: My computer's not powerful enough, and it only had 1GB hard drive space left (each game can be about 5-6GB). I knew I wouldn't regret buying it, though, and I was right. As of a few days ago I have access to a computer I was delighted to hear was approximately a gazillion times better than my regular computer. I promptly installed my Orange Box games and have been playing through them! I beat Portal the other day, and practiced on Team Fortress 2 with Takuma Nuva, and I planned to try out my Half-Life 2 today! Oh, the coincidence gets weirder. I was playing around with a tape measure not a half hour ago, and decided to figure out how far I could extend it without it bending and collapsing. I got to exactly eight feet. Then something occurred to me... Another strip yet again exactly like my life: Any readers have crazy coincidences you'd like to share? ~

Finally got all ~400 uploaded. *fist-pumps* =D! ~

Steampunk has intrigued me ever since I first heard of it... Yeah, the guys who made my guns make a steampunk pack, which is basically copper versions of specific steampunk-possible guns. I might get it someday. =) Also, very soon I will update this entry with a picture of my Lego gun collection as of Brickworld '09. ~
