Should I take progress pictures?
I started my weight loss journey about 2 weeks ago, and I've lost 5 pounds so far. My goal is to go from 220 to 160 (and then maybe re-evaluate at 160) so I'm expecting a pretty big change in my body. I hate how I look now, so I'm scared of taking before pictures. Should I do it? Do you guys use your own progress pics as motivation? Edit: Thanks guys! I think I'm going to take pics when I get home from work, and keep them as motivation. Hopefully I'll get to a point where I can post them on here as my success story :)

Videos freeze/pause every 5 or 6 seconds exactly on both Firefox and Chrome for some reason, and it is not a buffering issue. H E L P ME PLEASE REDDIT :(
OK so starting 3 days ago my videos started pausing during playback every 5 seconds exactly, while loading/buffering perfectly fine mind you. I load up a video on youtube, it perfectly plays and then pauses in the 5 second mark. I move cursor forward, and it plays perfectly for 5 seconds and then it pauses itself again for an unknown reason. Today it does so in 6 second intervals. I've tried; Restarting my computer Updating Chrome & restarting Updating Flash & restarting Updating Shockwave & restarting Turning off all plugins except flash & restarting And I've tried un-checking the Hardware Acceleration option as well, all to no luck. Please Reddit, I just want my videos to play normal again.

Extremly slow USB 3.0 port on Laptop
Hi, i have an extremly annoying problem, my USB 3.0 (blue) port on my laptop gives shitty speed. For instance, i'm copying a ISO from my computer to my psp using a USB-mini usb cable and i get around 1,50-3,0 Mo per second! Is that normal? Also, i think this happened since i installed a driver update who was available on a website i used a lot of time before (touslesdrivers.com) i am not sure, but i think it was this driver : "Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family USB xHCI Host Controller"

Dragon Knight and Manta Style
Is there some reason that Dragon Knight is not a good candidate for manta style? Is it simply that as a strength carry he doesn't benefit from the agility stat components? I've tried it out a couple of times and been flamed by my teammates for doing so. From what I have seen it's works amazingly as you can activate it after your ultimate and have 3 frost spewing, damage splashing, bad ass dragons. So is there something I'm missing here as to why you would never build one on DK.

Hutball - How are objective points awarded?
Hi, Just wondering how the system awards each player objective points in Hutball. Games where I do goal line defences, score goals, solo goals etc I usually end up with 0 objective points. Yet I can quite happily play another match with no interaction with the ball or ball carriers and get over 2000 objective points. Do we know how they are allocated yet? Feel like I'm missing out on 2 or 3 easy medals.

I'm a little worried about the how the meta game is progressing.
With the new "bruiser mid" meta that seems to be coming to the forefront. I'm a bit concerned about what is going to happen to not only the AP carry but the whole game in general. I mean think about it, if bruiser mid becomes the new meta, then AP (practically a third of the champion pool) becomes almost unviable, of course there are the exceptions like vlad and rumble who are played a lot in top, and the supports like zyra and lux. Then you have a multiple sets of items that effectively becomes useless, nobody will use AP items, nobody will need MR. People will begin to use the same bruiser items over and over, and the game will lose diversity. I don't know what's causing this shift but I hope that it stops to be quite frank, I love the game but when a large chunk of the champions and the items become niche pickups, I can't but help but feel it isn't good. I'd like to hear others thoughts on this, is it just me or is this a real problem?

Hello r/gaming - regarding people spamming their videos
Hey everyone, I spend quite a bit of time on r/gaming and I've noticed almost everyone seems to hate it when people spam videos. I myself recently posted one video of dishonoured and it was quickly downvoted (understandable) but can I make a proposal: Given everyone on this subreddit loves gaming, I think people should be able post one video every fortnight or so especially if they are an active part of this subreddit. Small channels would benefit greatly from this. As an example if someone posts a link to their video for the first time and people like it, give it an upvote but in the title leave your channel name in caps or something spammers are easily identifiable and can be downvoted. Please tell me what you think of this idea.

Why Do we watch middleweight, welterweight etc?
Hi, I don't follow boxing much, except some of the really main stream fights that land on ESPN front page, such as this weekend's fight between Manny and Juan. It sparked my interest a little, and I noticed they were junior middleweights, welterweights etc, but not heavyweights. I was just curious why we watch them, if their in this class division, because surely they aren't actually the best, as a middle of the pack heavyweight would probably beat them easily? I guess it surprised me when we're attaching all this emphasis on these matches, and the best boxer as manny or floyd, when they're in this weight class, as either of them would be outclassed by a heavyweight champion. Could someone explain this to me a little?

A change of policy in /r/ladyboners regarding nostalgia and underage submissions
Previously, we had specific rules for submitting content to the subreddit featuring an underage subject. Generally speaking, we wanted to allow people to enjoy nostalgia as long as it was safe for work. We felt it was all in good fun. However, some of you will remember that several months ago, Reddit changed their policy to crack down on the /r/jailbaits of reddit. This effectively changed their policy language to prohibit any "suggestive or sexual content featuring minors." At the time, the mods here had a conversation and decided that while we felt our community understood that a nostalgia boner was not strictly sexual, the grey area was too narrow and too easily misunderstood. Juxtaposing an underage image (even if the picture is 20 years old) with a subreddit with the word "boner" in the name kind of illustrates our fear. As a result, we decided to prohibit the submission of any underage content, regardless of how old the subject is now. I'm making this post for two reasons: * We never made an official announcement to the community regarding our change of policy. * We never updated the sidebar to reflect the change in policy. I will now do both of those. So from here on out, please report any underage/nostalgia boners that are submitted and we will be removing them from the feed. Feel free to direct submitters to the sidebar or directly to this thread. Thank you, and enjoy your boners!

I need advice on restoring a small, dilapidated courtyard at my High School! (Zone 7A)
At my High School, we have an FFA Chapter, and, as the school takes pride in our Agriculture programs, we have our very own "section" of the school - Two hallways with Ag classes alone, a classroom-lab for animal science and veterinary science classes, an auto shop/garage for mechanics, a huge classroom with a cooler for the Floriculture classes, a greenhouse, a garden, a courtyard, a classroom-kitchen for Food Science, and so much more... The courtyard, which is shared by three of our classrooms, is used mostly by the animal science class for the dogs (teachers bring in their dogs and we act as a sort of daycare for them). Problem is, it's horribly dilapidated. Nobody really goes there, besides the dogs. I have pride in my FFA, and in my animal science classes, so I am aspiring to clean it up. First things first before I seriously talk to my advisors about setting up a clean-up event (I've made suggestions and went out to do minor clean-ups now and then), I need a plan. I'm really hoping you can help me, and if this is the wrong subreddit to ask, then please direct me to the correct place to go. According to the Zone Map provided I live in Zone 7A. The courtyard is rather small but spacey enough (I don't have exact measurements, unfortunately). The ag teachers and I have agreed that it would be great to clean up the pathways and turn the garden parts into animal-friendly areas for the animal science animals as well as the dogs. As of right now it is covered in dead weeds and old bushes, which desperately need to go. Since they are all dead now, and other students like to work outside in Autumn/Winter rather than the hot Summer or Spring, I figured now would be a good time to start. But... where should I start? Should I begin with weeding? Uprooting the old bushes? And how do I restore the soil to make it suitable for healthy grass to grow again? It would be amazing if I had grass for the dogs to roll in and for the small animals to graze and play in, as they rarely get fresh air otherwise (we would cut off a section of the garden with wire so the grass and flowers there are untouched by the dogs' waste, so it's safe for the small animals to graze and play in). tl;dr: Restoring a small courtyard in my school. Read the last paragraph to see my exact questions regarding.

A TIL submission reading more or less "SWISS study says stock brokers are LITERALLY worse than psychopaths" shows huge disparity between voters/commenters
So I made the mistake of opening up /r/all , out of sheer boredom, and having a look around. I quickly came across a TIL submission, A study conducted by a **LE SWISS UNIVERSITY** showed that stockbrokers are more reckless and manipulative than diagnosed psychopaths (+1694 net at time of this post). I'm not going to lie - I jumped to the comments section without even bothering to click on the link. I was giddy over the size of the circlejerk I was about to encounter, and I expected that, in addition to the typical rabid anti-finance ignorance common on Reddit, a Europe-jerk might be in full effect as well. The smug expression on my face quickly evaporated, however, as I read comment after comment that called out the post. In fact, there were almost no comments that did anything but make fun of the article/title/etc. Top comment calls it out as circlejerk-bait right away (+457): >Oh great, more anti-finance circle-jerk on reddit. And we also get at +284 >DAE HATE RICH PEOPLE? Someone else brings up potential flaws in making such a conclusion (+93)]( and someone else [expresses annoyance at this characterization of financial professions (+27). Yet another is concerned about how the article does not understand the difference between stock brokers and traders: >when you confuse stockbrokers and traders in an article it makes me think your publication is irresponsible... (+188) The best part, however, is that *the submission blatantly violates the rules of TIL*: >This is all very nice, but Der Spiegel fails to cite the alleged study, and the article should therefore be treated with extreme skepticism. (+17|-3). There is of course, someone who has to point out that they have worked in finance (DAE *I have le black friend and...*) and that "[stockbrokers] are indeed completely twisted people 75% of the time." (+78) I find it amazing that so many people would see such a circlejerky post title (Finance is evil, as uncovered by Swiss study? Come **ON**!) and uncritically toss it an upvote, stroking their neckfur and thinking about how much better STEM majors are. That so many of the comments are negative at least demonstrates that some readers exercise critical thinking, and I'm always interested in the divide between commenters (we are clearly smarter for this, /r/circlebroke) and your "average" Redditor. Anyway, figured I'd contribute something to this subreddit besides my awesome purple flair and witty comments.

Let's discuss Miranda from Mass Effect. (spoilers)
In fear of being bombarded by Miranda fanboys and fangirls and the well typical comments we get from bringing up Miranda (or her ass, don't need to look far to find a place for that kind of discussion) regardless of the topic at hand, I want to ask you girls and guys at r/girlgamers for a hand here because I know a lot of you discuss female characters in a mostly civil and understanding manner. This isn't an attack on her character nor is this directly targeting her objectification but rather connecting the dots together that makes her the woman she currently is. The problem is I don't "understand" her character as much as I want to and I really wish to know her since a number of people thinks she is a character who should be praised for having depth. In my opinion, depth doesn't necessarily mean a positive thing because in some cases it can be as much of an illogical mess as any story can be (Mass Effect 3 anyone? /shot) and I'm kind of leaning that way in regards of this. Somehow the idea of wearing a fabric suit in battle doesn't really make sense especially in all the places she's found herself in, but unlike Jack (who is just nuts, I'll leave it at that) Miranda has a very special reasoning for appearing like she does but if that's a result of something that is beyond her control is something to consider. Seeing as Oriana ended up being a typical npc stock character after being freed up from her father it begs the question: What made Miranda still pressured to appear like the "perfect" woman even without her father but still lack crucial situational awareness for her own safety and wellbeing? What made her not give up that world of thought? Does The Illusive Man have anything to do with it, considering his treatment of Eva Coré? Chances are I'm overthinking the whole importance of her character making as she is after all cited as being the femme fatale of the series, but since I was amazed by the first game's treatment on every bit of detail and make sure immersion is first priority, Mass Effect 2 left me much confused especially on Miranda's account. If you can tell me why you like her and how we can possibly relate to her, I'd be much happy to read what you've said. Chances are this is a pretty stupid to ask, but I looked at any information I could learn and still feel like I'm missing something. As a side note, I welcome any discussion about Bioware's overall execution of her. TLDR; Please explain Miranda to me.

Halo 4 now has 20/100 on metacritic. Is this just small websites looking for attention? What does this say about the state of games journalism? I can't help but compare this to the way the user review scores always look. The user reviews for basically any game are almost always people giving a game 10/10 or 2/10. Is that what so called "professional reviews" are turning into? EDIT: Sorry about the title, I phrased that poorly.

What is your retirement goal? What is your magical money number, at what age will you retire, and what year in the future will that be? I'm trying to get a sense of the impact inflation has on my "numbers".
And most importantly, how do you calculate these goals? So I started messing with retirement calculators, fretting about the future even though I'm in my younger twenties. Okay, not fretting, but this is very interesting and I'm curious to find out more. Right now, for example, I'll use a retirement calculator, put in my details, and out pops a number: 3.7 million dollars. I think wow, that's a lot. Then I realize with inflation taken into account, that's really not all that much for the suggested retirement age of 67 in the year ~2052. At a 3% inflation rate, $3.7 mil is barely $1 mil today by the time I retire.

Math, Engineering, Economics at GW. (another prospective student.)
Hello, I was recently accepted to the SEAS and from what I have seen really like GW as a whole. However, after taking AP Physics B and AP Chem, I'm seriously questioning whether of not engineering is the right path for me. Before this year I really enjoyed sciences in general, but now I'm seriously questioning whether I should stick with Engineering, or move to a Math/Economics double major, which are both subjects I have loved considerably more this year (AP Calc AB/AP MicroMacro). I've given a lot of thought to the idea of applying to a PhD program in either Math or Economics after graduation, as the idea of spreading the boundaries of human knowledge is something appealing to me and I truly enjoy learning both subjects. If anybody has any experience with any of these departments, could you speak about the general strength of each in terms of undergraduate teaching, internship/research opportunities, and alumni networks. Thanks!

Special Relativity Question - Length contraction vs Time dilation
Hi, This has been bugging me for a while and if anyone could help I'd really appreciate it. I've been spending a lot of time trying to grasp special relativity and the lorentz transformations, but there's something I just can't get my head around. In special relativity, (let's keep this to time-like intervals for the time being), for two measuring events, as we increase our velocity relative to the events, due to the invariance of the interval between the two events as we transform between frames of reference: dS^2 = dX'^2 - dT'^2 = dX^2 - dT^2, dX and dT contract or dilate together. A minimum time is measured between the events in the frame where dX= 0 (ie it sees the events as having 0 x interval, and is thus moving 'with/through' the events' , and we call this time the proper time. Likewise since dX = v*dT, a smaller length is measured between the two events by the frame measuring a proper time. My question is this: why is time minimum in the frame measuring a proper time, and then 'measured' as dilated in a relatively moving frame, whilst length is 'maximum' in the frame where the space interval corresponds to the length, and this measured length 'contracts' when 'measured' in the moving frame. It seems the time interval measured between 2 events can dilate to infinity as we approach c, but is always MINIMUM in the Proper time frame. Conversely, lengths of an object contract as we accelerate relative to the rest frame of the object, but are always, this time, MAXIMUM in the rest frame, and contract to 0 when we move at a higher velocity relative to this frame. The asymmetry between Length, being relative to a maximum, which we 'see' contract but time being relative to a minimum which we see dilate, is something I don't understand. I'd greatly appreciate any help!

Can't find PE threads here that describe my situation...
Most PE threads describe not being able to last long first time around and then lasting about 30 min on the second time around. While this may be normal for those with PE, it's not for me. My PE is every time when penetration is involved. There were just two instances, each with a different ex where the 2nd time around I didn't feel the need to cum (I wasn't fully hard) for close to an hour. I was on top of the world. I can get a BJ or masturbate just fine, without PE, but penetration puts a quick stop on things (this also differentiates me from people in other PE threads). For this reason, even having had several girlfriends in the past, I've never taken a girl I'm intimate with by surprise and taken her to the bedroom...in fact, I won't even whisper things to my SOs like how much I wish I could have them alone (when in public), for ex. I've simply learned not to do this and it's part of my behavior now to not even consider it....Even I know how sad that is. I don't do one-night stands, though practically everyone else I know and have ever known does (few exceptions). There have been instances where I had friends with benefits but the arrangement never lasted long. I don't even know if I became anti-one-night stand because that's who I am or because of my PE. Where I live in Latin America, it's highly prized to be able to successfully approach a girl in a social setting, so much so that the women expect this, too. In this sense, I have no game and I've never tried to pick up a girl (even back home in the US, I never tried...and I'm in my early 30's now). In any event, I'm more concerned with fixing my problem so that I am able to surprise my future girlfriend in certain moments and so that I don't feel held back in general. I'm going to give kegels another shot. Tried them a long time ago and also tried to stop ejaculation but it was uncomfortable and my erection went down after, as if I had ejaculated. Not sure if this is what 'should' happen... I really hope someone can help. **tl;dr** - Have no game/not passionate with gfs b/c have PE. Don't even feel I can show my SO a good time.

Currently building the i7-3770k with the UP5 TH and the Corsair HX650. Immediately got power on problems. Did some researching and found that others were having the same problem. Turns out that the UP5 series of Mobo's doesn't like new high wattage PSU's. I used a thermaltake PSU from an old build to trouble shoot, and sure enough, BAM... it worked.

Help me name my Fenugreek mead.
For quite a while, I thought it was crap. It had this odd tartness to it, so I kept planning and planning on wht to do to it. Well, the next thing I know, a year and 3 months has gone by and it's still in the carboy. I decided to sample it again, just to get a reminder, and wow! It had a strong Honey-maple aroma, then, when it first hits your mouth it has a sourness, not unlike a green apple and then it just explodes into that honey maple taste. It is amazing. It's quite dry, but not acidic and its running between 18 and 20% (I didn't adjust for temp). Now, it's bottling time and I want a good name for it, but I'm drawing a blank. Stats: 18 lbs honey water to top off to 5 gallons White Labs sweet mead yeast (liquid) Nutrients OG: 1.10 Added 2 oz of dried fenugreek seeds in secondary waited til obvious fermentation stopped (1 month-ish) Racked to bulk age.

Computer crashes when put to sleep
I made a post a while back (about a month) about my computer having issues when put to sleep. Now the computer crashes about 99% of the time when it's put to sleep. Not only does it crash, but the start-up is extremely slow. Sometimes when left up for long periods of time to avoid this crash, it will shut-down. I've also seen about 2-3 blue screens in about 3 weeks. I can't think of anything causing the problem. I've run kaspersky and found no viruses, and I've run CCleaner to delete temp files and check for registry errors often. I am about to defragment my HDD, as it hasn't been done for a long time, but I don't think it will do anything to help. Anything else I can do to try to find problem(s)? Thanks.

Toronto Ride for Heart 2012 - Ride 25, 50, or 75km on the DVP & Gardiner (June 3rd)
Sunday, June 3rd is the Toronto Ride for Heart 2012. It's a charity event where the Gardiner and Don Valley Parkway are shut down to cars, and cyclists ride to support the Heart and Stroke foundation. **We're looking for more people to join our team** (team name: Crank Addicts]( We've got two so far (myself and my brother, a fellow redditor), but we need at least 3 more people to participate. There are 3 different route lengths - [25km, 50km, and 75km. We're going to do the 50km, but I don't think there would be a problem if anyone wanted to do the 25 or 75km routes. The cost to register is $55, and everyone has to raise at least $100 in donations. It seems like a lot, but it's not that bad, and it's for a good cause. Also, you have until June 3rd to fundraise. When you sign up you can choose from a list of teams. Just scroll down until you find us (once again, our name is Crank Addicts). If you don't feel like joining us but still feel like donating, feel free to go to our team page, click on one of our team members and donate directly on their page. You can also donate directly to the group, but by donating on a member's page it helps us reach the $100/person fundraising minimum.

WornPorn Mission Statement
Ok so I plan for this post to be a permanent work in progress with you guys' contribution. The philosophical undercurrent for WornPorn is basically a positive way to protest against consumption. I hope for it to be a way to celebrate history and tradition in a visual, modern way. I hope WornPorn develops visually like the other SFW porn subs, but certainly don't limit yourselves to pictures or images. Old stories, memories and philosophical musings as well are certainly welcome. It's not meant to have a liberal or conservative lean at all. In fact this is really a place where politically people can come together. I find it a shame left liberalism shuns tradition. Certainly traditional rituals like shining old boots are on a different level than opposing gay marriage for example. My fear right now is that WornPorn becomes a bit male-centric, so I'll be looking for a mod of the fairer sex soon once we pick up steam. A list of related subs is coming soon.

I just randomly thought..if I get tested positive again, will I have to throw away my lenses and wear glasses until I'm fully treated?

Is anyone here a closet anarchist out of necessity?
This is a throwaway because some of my friends know my main and I don't want to have it widespread that I'm an anarchist. Very few people (maybe 4-5 at most) know that I am an anarchist because of the nature of my career path, and all of those people are the more open-minded among my friends, so I'm not worried about them looking at me in a negative light. I'm currently a college student, but I am working towards a career in physics and nuclear engineering research, which will inevitably require a stringent background check for security clearances. I've already made it through one background check, but pretty much every time I go to a new lab, I'll have to go through the process all over again, so I have to maintain a clean record. Given the depth of these background checks (how are your finances? any outstanding debt? what about your reference's references? etc.) and the confidential government-related nature of the work I plan to do, it's very important that I have absolutely nothing bad on my record or reputation that would cast any shadows on me. Therefore, I've never been to an Occupy location, even though I support the movement, because I don't want photos of me floating around, nor have I actually said or done anything not expected of a flaming liberal, which is what everyone assumes I actually am. I understand that this will probably be downvoted because (a) I plan on doing research in a government-owned lab, (b) I'm not outwardly spreading the news about anarchy, and (c) I'm willing to cooperate with the government for my career, which all seems like things most anarchists are against. Regardless of your view on me and any apparent cowardice you may see in me, is anyone else here in the same situation and how do you work towards supporting your beliefs? I am vegan and feminist, which led me towards anarchy, and I do share as much as possible about those two issues, which always seem to be less "dangerous" than anarchy, so I feel like I am being a bit of an activist, but I would be curious to know what other people in my situation have done.

Talking about Sona & some on her changes!
Ok so for the past few weeks I've been playing a lot of Sona and have been finding her pretty fun and i think she has strong viability potential. BUT, what I think is holding back a lot of people's perception on Sona (most people think she is bad) is a **key misconception** in how Sona is played, specifically early game. The thing I learned through the hard way, is that this idea that you should be aggressive in early levels (1-5) with Q chord is not good! Because Sona is so fragile and has no escape and very little "saving power", she can easily just be stunned and killed then put on farm status. However, at 6, she has incredible kill potential with her ult + q + chord, not only is this a good disable, but it also is like 400 dmg combo burst, better than almost all other conventional supports. So, my playstyle now a days is max Q, but really only use it defensively (if like a taric stuns my carry ill try to Q--> passive their carry or support, but otherwise stay back behind carry most of the time), and then at 6 try to pull of a nice burst combo! I use more heavy mana regen runes to facilitate this because my level 1-5 is kinda focused on using a lot of W to sustain through the lane, and mana regen is important later too. ----- **The Changes** Now, all this above was what I was figuring out before the patch came, now that it came how does it change Sona? Well, the main thing I've found as far as laning is that you get to have more chords in lane :D which is great for these burst scenarios. Also one important thing with sona is you want to spam all your auras in team battles, and use chords as much and effecitively as possible. With the new change I think that makes her shred through mana more than before cause you can combo your spells quicker. Leading to the build which I've been testing out that I think is decent which is: Start: faerie 3 ward 2 health pot 1 mana pot --> philo --> boots --> hog --> chalice --> kindlegem --> shurelias or ionia boots (can switch order of chalice / kindlegem depending on stage/laning partners/etc.).

My record player (Technics SL-DD33) just started humming/buzzing out of nowhere. What do I do?
Hi everyone, I own a Technics SL-DD33 record player which I inherited from my late uncle. I've had it since November 2011 and I haven't had any problems with it. I like vinyl and have started buying vinyl instead of cd's lately. But when I came home today and turned on my record player to play a record, I noticed a very noticable hum or buzz or something like that. This is the first time I've heard this since it's quite loud and even without a record playing, you can hear it very clear. **What can I do to make this humming/buzzing go away?** I think it has something to do with a 'ground wire' but I don't really know what that means. When I got the record player, I simply connected it to the receiver (Technics SA-130) through a red/white wire into the phono channel and everything has worked great up until now. When I put the receiver on a different channel (like CD/Aux or Tuner) it doesn't make the noise so it has to be the turntable. I hope you can help me because I really like listening to vinyl, but I want this to go away. Thanks in advance.

Airhole Placement, Silicon Carbide or other Abrasives, and You?
So a fatal flaw of the non-oring bottom screw down atomizer is that you don't have much control over where the airhole lies. sure, its a little bit off, you add an o-ring or deal with it twisted lightly, just enough loose. other than that, you're at the mercy of your rebuilding skills and the manufacturers whims. I often hear of people using sandpaper to modify their tops to get them to sit, would thought of a easier? (probably not) solution that I thought I'd run by you. I'm going to use the same thing I use for whetstones and chisels - silicon carbide 120g powder, a little water, and a small bit of plate glass. I figured its a good a way as any, and the flatness would help (although the plate glass could be used with sandpaper as well) make sure the threads still fit perfectly. Is my thinking wrong? Have you shortened the threads on any of your pieces for any reason? How and Why? God I'm needy. I have a phoenix with a really loose post and curreuntly no screws, so its a prefect candidate for testing. maybe in a few days i'll sharpie the base at the airhole, go at it for a few minutes, and keep measuring how many ridges it moves. That sounds like a good test. Cheers!

Basically it was a collection of old PC games. Some legitimately badass games. It was a gigantic list, of games like TMNT and the likes. The gui was extremely simple. IIRC it was on a disc (burned), so most likely a torrent. You'd scroll with the arrow keys, no mouse clicking. Once you'd find your game, you'd hit enter and type in OK, for whatever convoluted ass reason. Some worked, some didnt, but they were all awesome. could've been ms-dos games but not sure.

Planning a winter wedding in Cleveland
Hey Cledditors, I'm interested in some advice on where one might hold a wedding during the winter months in Cleveland. Info: My future wife and I are hoping to get married sometime between December 15th and January 15th of this year, and are trying to find a suitable location to hold our reception. I grew up in Seven Hills and moved away at 18, and haven't really been around too much over the past 10 years, so my knowledge about locations is limited to the place I went to prom. My fiancee is from Detroit, and we figure our best bet to get our families together is to do a wedding in Cleveland. Anyways, I'm interested if you Cledditors have any good ideas about where we could have a nice reception. We're going to do the ceremony and the reception all in one place (since we aren't really religious). We would prefer somewhere that could accomodate somewhere around 100-125 people. We'd really love a place that doesn't stop serving booze around midnight since we like to have a good time. We'd also like flexible catering options since we both think pierogi are the greatest food ever and want to have them for our guests. Our budget is somewhere between 10-15K, as we're paying for this ourselves. So, does anyone have any ideas? Based on my criteria, I suspect a bar with a huge party room would be ideal, but I'd love to hear any suggestions.

USB Port "Device Not Recognized" Error
My laptop has two ports. One for my usb mouse, and one for my laptop cooling pad. Last night my usb ports were working fine, and this morning, I awoke to find that my computer had stopped detecting my usb devices. I've been trying to fix the problem all day. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my usb drivers through the device manager several times, and I have unplugged my laptop and removed the battery to let it reboot several times. I have tried to find any sort of driver update that might help, but my mouse is "plug and play" anyway, so no drivers there. As of the time of posting, my computer doesn't even acknowledge that my mouse is plugged into it, and the "device not recognized" and the "device failed to install successfully" messages don't even appear anymore. From what I could find on my own, this does seem to be a common problem, but none of the usual fixes have worked. Am I doing something wrong? Is there an alternative method to try? Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

So wait, what's wrong with darker roasts?
I was perusing the side bar this morning, and noticed the coffee guidelines below the submission rules. It says: " IV: Avoid dark roasts in the beginning (or forever!). Coffee is not supposed to be bitter and angry like 99% of dark roasts. Not to mention that dark roasts are very susceptible to over-extraction." This is the first time I've heard any of that. This seems helpful for future visits to coffee places I'm unfamiliar with (where the darker roasts often taste burnt), but I consistently find that I enjoy the darker roasts more than the lighter ones. The taste seems richer, stronger, there seems to be more "oomph" to them than lighter roasts. I learned to drink coffee on lighter roasts, and through trial and error found dark roasts and loved them. However, the caveat: I primarily get coffee at Trader Joe's (the TJ brand dark roast is nummy), local coffee shops (one by my old place actually roasted there in the shop, and it was heavenly), or in a pinch, I'll get Peet's. Not to say I haven't had shitty dark roasts, because I have, and avoid those brands/roasts like the plague afterwards. But I have also had that experience with lighter roasts too, so it's not isolated to just dark coffees. Is this dark roast = bad thing primarily due to shitty grocery store coffee, or do I just have weird taste buds? I guess what I'm looking for is more of an expansion on what exactly is so bad about darker roasts. If how I take my coffee matters, here it is: I drink my coffee primarily with just some sugar, and a little bit of milk - if milk's not available, sugar alone is fine. Not sure on the exact amount I usually use, but it's about 1 - 2 teaspoons at home, or in a large sized coffee cup from the coffee shop, 3 splendas/sugar packets. Thanks everyone!

Acabo de comprar el red box starter de D&D, no conozco a mucha gente y mucho menos gente que le guste este tipo de actividades.(tengo 27 y de niñito no me bajan.. ignorantes xD). Busco mas que nada con quien jugar, pasar un buen rato, compartir unos vinitos o cheves artesanales.

Lost weight (over 30lbs), seeing no difference. Feeling demotivated.
Hey guys. So, within the last 7ish weeks, I've managed to lose over 30lbs by going to the gym 5 times a week for 70 minutes, doing a lot of walking everyday, and eating around 900-1200 calories a day. (For reference, I'm 5 ft 6" and male). What's got me down is that after seeing the scale tip from 225 to 192 was awesome! But, I see NO difference at all. The only difference I have noticed is my pants feel a bit looser, and aren't as tight as they used to be. I know people say I should be patient and wait 3-4 months before seeing physical progress, but after losing a third of my final goal, and not seeing many results, I feel somewhat demotivated. Any insight would be most appreciated.

LDR girlfriend (20) seems to want to spend time with friends more then me (20) when shes in town
My girlfriend is coming to town this friday for her christmas break. We havent seen each other in a month, which is the longest we have gone without seeing each other. (usually its 2 weeks or so) A lot of times when she comes to town she would rather hang out with one of her friends she hasnt seen in a while than spend time with me. The last time she was in town she spent the night at her friends house, only stopping by to drop some things off and pick up some thing for the sleep over (I live with her parents) This friday she is coming to town after the longest weve ever gone without seeing each other, and the day after is going 3 hours away to hang out with her bestfriend for 4 days untill christmas. I asked why she said "She has to". From what she said her friend is kind of guilting her into going to see her. I said why would you want to do that when we havent seen each other in so long? She accused me of not allowing her to see her friends and that she needs to see her friends that she "hasnt seen in a longer time than she hasnt seen me". This hurt me pretty badly because id put her in front of any of my friends. Plus i can go 2 years without talking to one of my friends and then hit them up again and it will be like things are how they were before. Is her specific friend being ridiculous? I hate that shes making her go to duluth. Idk what to think of this, i know im hurt and confused by it. but idk.. I just want to spend time with her Weve been dating for almost 2 years now and this is a girl i can see myself marrying, and one day plan to tl;dr: Girlfriend seems to rather hang out with friends than me, or her friend seems to be putting a strain on our relationship? edit: the friends are all girls

Has anyone tried Steam on Windows 8?
I read that most people didn't have any problems running Steam on Windows 8. Has anyone have any bad experiences running games on Windows 8? For the records, I current have Windows 7 64-bit
