Free through Adidas warranty..

 

[Mr.Outside]

Got me one of these on a good price in the i5 spec with radeon 7670m, 500gb hdd and 32 gb ssd.

I was waiting for the Haswell but then again in this will be much faster than my original 11' air (c2d 1.4ghz) that it replaces and i felt naked a week with no laptop. Also i guess it won't be like 2-3 months until the laptops with haswell hit the market and now i guess there are good offers as the companies try to get rid of stock.

I spilled Freddo on my Air and the costs to fix it were more than this:

It looks sexy, but it ain't a Mac. I like the brushed black metal on it though

Also i don''t know why I ordered online a WII and super mario galaxy as i got nostalgic for SMB.

But you cant use GameCube controllers with that Wii.

What do you mean? If it was the standard white version it would be ok?
Pff. i thought only the new mini Wii wasnt able to play the games:/

Edit: At first i was bummed that it does not support them, but then on the other hand i already have a gamecube. I can't decide if i should return it and find a used one or an older one..

Mounted poster for the wall of my office at work, and performance package/m-sport control arm and bushing set for my 330Ci (which at 120k miles is due for it's second set of lower control arm bushings).

I was going to buy the same one before I realized you couldn't play GameCube games on it. I also have a GameCube but there are a lot of Wii and virtual console games that are much better to play with the GC controller. I ended up finding a like-new white Wii with several great games for $100 on Craigslist. If you're going to play Super Smash Bros. Bawl then you'll definitely want a GC controller.

The options for finding a used one here in Cyprus are a bit limited. I have my eyes on a 25th Anniversary off ebay, that supports GameCube games and the shipping is reasonable. Thanks for the heads up mate

He just wanted to show us he's got a gun..

Must gun owners particularly those that carry know or should know where it is at all times.

That was what I was thinking. I hope that a gun owner knows where their visibly placed gun is.

For stupid face.

Went with the beefier ZHP control arms, eh?

LOL. I'm not a gun owner, I assure you. And beyond that, I knew where it was.

How do you like your HTC One?

 

[WhiteIphone5]

Slowly piecing my build together. Decided to make the splurge. Haswell might be nice, but found a good deal to buy my way into the 2011 socket.

It's great!

I got the same thing out of the box (I mean paint kinda blurred near the antennas). Didn't ask for replacement too.

That's amazing. I would've gone crazy lol

Yes, I had been planning on making this change when the LCABs were due next. The guy who teched my car for tomorrow's HPDE told me they're ok, but due.

Hopefully this will be all the car needs for a bit. I did a brake overhaul late last year and bought new street tires around the same time. Then in January it was thermostat, expansion tank, hose, and serpentine belt time, a new VCG, plus the motor for the driver seat had failed so I had that replaced too.

 

[EgEm]

worst time to get my compressor broken!

Have no air conditioning on my truck on summer with temperatures as 112 F on day... Its just impossible to survive like that xO.

Nice! Front caliper overhaul is on my short list

That sucks man, my AC compressor hasn't kicked on a couple of times so far this season in my truck, but lately it's been working so I am not really to bite the bullet on that yet.

My Central Air compressor died too, so I took my old window AC out of the basement and bought another cheap one for upstairs, planning on fixing the central air over the winter or early spring next year. I just paid off my truck and now I am going to use the extra money to pay off my credit cards over the next 6 months.

Adidas Busenitz. But do I trim the tongue off or not?

Feeding my Raspberry Pi with two of these:

... although mine don't have a picture of an elephant on them

I am thinking of getting a Raspberry Pi and am looking at these two on eBay (not affiliated with any of these sellers). Which one would you recommend? Also how stable are they, curious if they stay up to date easily as far as the XBMC or it's a thing where you buy it now--and a few months down the line everything is outdated?

I haven't really tried XBMC so I'm afraid that I'm not the best person to ask. Both of those have the current 512 MB model of Pi; I have the older 256 MB and it's a bit slow under Linux although everything appears to work. The hardware doesn't seem to change much (as far as I know, the memory increase is the only change so far) so it should be reasonably future-proof.

Canon Pixma Pro 100. Pleased so far.

Lol.

Got it for $20 at TJ max to grill on my balcony.
