I think I still have loads of DVDs I got a few years ago full of study crap. (Text, video & interactive)
MCSE, CCNA, CCNP, CISSP, CompTIA, PHP, SQL, Linux, UNIX.
God knows how much of it is even relevant anymore but it helped me bullsh!t through a few interviews :pac:
Handiest thing I found to help with Cisco stuff is GNS3.
Its a network simulator and with a bit of searching you can find the firmware files for different Cisco routers & switches. Not a foolproof way of learning but is very helpful for practice & understanding the gibberish youre reading.
Only problem is (in my case), unless im actually working with something I forget it within a week or 2

I would appreciate any thing that can help

Have another 6 ebboks onto my kindle boy i love Private torrent sites

Back to Ireland and reality today I'm afraid (or at least the start of the journey)
Job interviews and such early next week so I have to get home and shave my Zach Galifianakis beard and find some uncomfortable suit to wear instead of ultra comfortable outdoorsy gear I've been living in for the last while.
Basically I've been living life as a cross between Zach Galifianakis and Bear Grylls for the last month.

You can call be Zach Grylls:

Just after watching the latest Breaking Bad. One one more episode now and then the wait until next summer begins. I think it may kill me!

Only just after catching up with you now brother!

The last season could have been the perfect ending to the show,
and I thought it could only go downhill from there.

But Vince did it again! The show never fails to surprise me.

I was just wondering what a fair price would be for the two Zelda Oracle games and The Minish Cap allegedly all mint but with no photographs to prove this. I made an offer which I thought was fair for the three games which was treated with disdain by the seller.

OwaynOTT

If they are mint and complete anywhere between 60-80 for the 3. Maybe even a bit more.

Thanks,I would have thought around 60ish myself, I put a bid of 50 to get the ball rolling. Possibly would have gone 65 as a last bid but felt they were looking a lot more from their response so I didn't bother increasing it.

CosmicSmash

Anybody remember playing this in the arcades, I thought it was a great game back in its day. Well worth a look:pac:

I used to have this on the C64!!

I don't have a cab but I think I'll get the xarcade out for this one. What did it play like on the C64?

Was just reading Digital Foundry's review of the Droid X360, a Chinese knockoff of the Vita. No surprise it's a piece crap but this part is particularly funny/weird:

There are other peculiarities to deal with, the most disconcerting of which is the X360's penchant for making random fart-like sounds, even when the screen is powered down and the unit isn't actually doing anything. The sound in question is also emitted when making touchscreen selections, and we're not joking with the description - it really does sound like someone is passing wind. This is embarrassing enough when you're actively using the machine, but having it happen when it's in your pocket on a crowded train is borderline mortifying. You can naturally drop the volume, but this means all other audio notifications are silenced.

The device has an SD slot though, so I wonder will Ciderman be unable to resist getting one. :P

Another reply to my Legend of Dragoon review. I think we have a winner here. You know it's going to be good when the user has an avatar of one of the characters from Legend of Dragoon. I'm not even going to reply to this one since it pretty much speaks for itself. I nearly choked when I read their first point:

It is my favourite game and I think that it is better than Final Fantasy VII. Why is it better?
First of all, I don't know another RPG with a wider variety of settings: it has a volcano, deserts, a glacier, forests, castles, caves, a ghost ship, etc. Tell me another RPG with more settings if you know one.
"The bad guy has silver hair and is trying to destroy the world. They couldn’t even change his hair colour to try to disguise the fact that they were trying to emulate Sephiroth". => And how do you know this? I don't think so. They have very different personalities and characteristics. Sephiroth is the strength, the power. He is the typical bad guy in a game. Lloyd is a different kind of bad guy. He is the speed, the agility. By the way, Lloyd doesn't want to destroy the world.
"The storyline is generic textbook JRPG". => What are you saying? Isn't it original the truth about the Black Monster? Sephiroth had bad intentions since he destroyed Nibelheim. Can you say the same about the Black Monster? The intentions of Sephiroth are more predictable than the intentions of the Black Monster.
Legend of Dragoon is also a longer game. The first disc of FFVII is very long, but the other two are short. On the contrary, LoD has four discs and they all have a considerable length.
In FFVII almost every boss has the same mechanics in disc 2 and 3: use big guard and your best summons and you'll win easily.
"If you did feel any emotional attachment to this character, any sense of loss is quashed when he is quickly replaced by another character with the same abilities". In Legend of Dragoon each character has his own elemental affinity. This elemental system can be compared with the FF job system. Therefore, you need a character who can cast spells of the same element. It would be unfair not to be able to use spells of this element anymore. Nevertheless, I agree with you that this new character could have used a different weapon.
Anyway, I think that FFVII is a hyped game. People see Sephiroth walking through fire and they easily get impressed.

Question remains,
When picturing 40 nights and days of Snoo Snoo why does he picture Retr0 and not himself?
I mean, as fond as I am of you all, when it comes to imaginary Snoo Snoo you guys just don't feature...

Well apparently this thread is "disturbingly erotic" for Atavan, a fact which itself is extremely disturbing.
