Off-Topic Thread

Mod Note: In all of my benevolence (and the fact I'm tired of cleaning gag posts out of the BA thread) I have created a new (did we ever have one??) Off Topic thread for all your randomness and IT-related humour! The rules are: there are no rules. Although posting on-topic stuff here or stuff that belongs in Hardware Discussion etc. better may be moved randomly with extreme prejudice!! It will also make you look silly

Yeah the key is valid for both 64 & 32 bit versions. Only thing is you will have to download the 64-bit version of the Windows Edition you are buying as the 32-bit version cannot install the 64-bit and visa versa.

Ah that's fair enough. I probably could have found it out for myself with a quick google but, ya know, why bother when there's knowledgeable peeps right here.

And sure if someone didn't ask the easy questions I'd have no reason to stay here

Eh, is it just me or does anyone elses page open with you having to slid back over to the left cuz of the extra long =========== (by 11) in Monos sig?:o

Monotype

Hmmm tried switching off 'use full width' and it still doesn't do that for me. Is it on a phone or browser thing?

Deleted a load of them. Is it fixed? I'll put spaces in it or get rid of it if it's causing a lot of trouble.

Works fine now.

[snob]Didn't make any difference with me, it's probably because I've got a 2560x1440 screen[/snob]

Same as that git rid of the iphone and dumped itunes, ther
e is an option in itunes to convert yo Mae etc., from the crapple site:

"Select one or more songs in your library, then from the Advanced menu, choose one of the following (The menu item changes to show what's selected in your Importing preferences):Create MP3 versionCreate AAC versionCreate AIFF versionCreate WAV versionCreate Apple Lossless version"

Jaysus, I thought Intel quicksync was a gimmick, but it's extremely fast at transcoding video. It's incredible the difference in speed.

AMD piledriver expected to launch tomorrow.

Monotype

Just FX or APUs too?

Tea_Bag

Give a look here Headshot, and try the Image Burning Method;

This method doesn't need a CD-R to burn on and might be a little faster. Another advantage is that you can probably burn more than 80 minutes of music at once (I never tested it, but I think it'll work). Many CD recording programs allow you to burn on a "virtual recorder", creating a CD Image file on your hard disk.

1In Nero, do this by clicking "Recorder" > "Choose Recorder..." > "Image Recorder" and then creating a new CD as usual.

2After clicking on "burn", you're asked where you want the file to be saved. Select a drive that has enough free space to save all the contents of the CD.

3When Nero has finished, you need a virtual drive. Microsoft provides a free Virtual CD-ROM driver for Windows 2000 & XP.

4A (simpler) alternative to a virtual drive is to use a good unzipping program such as Izarc (free download from http://www.izarc.org) which will "unzip" the "ISO" or image file into regular audio files.

5Right-click on your virtual drive and select "open image file..." or something similar - depending on which software you use. Then open the image file you created.

6After loading your image file, rip the CD in the virtual drive as you would do with a normal CD.

Should do the job, itunes is a huge PITA though, must find something decent to replace it with though now, windows media player isn't exactly the best either.

according to the DHL site my new computer status is 60% done

god I hate the wait

FlyingIrishMan

Mine skipped 80%, was on 60% then the next day I came home it was there.
I went on the DHL website and they still said it was 60% of the way, but then updated to 100% a few hours later.

IMO That thing looks like the CM 690 II and the TJ-07 had a child or something.

any good site to download pc games from (legit sites) cheap enough prices if possible please

Monotype

www.gog.com

Most of their stuff are older titles, which is good if that's what you are looking for as they put effort into getting them to work, but they don't have many newer releases. They're working on expanding their library.
Big advantage is that they're all DRM-free.

Keep an eye on the Gaming Bargains thread over in the games forum. Lots of special offers from Amazon.com, Greenman Gaming, Gamer's Gate appear there - a lot of which can be activated on Steam.

Monotype

There's find-games.co.uk for physical copies.

I know you said downloads though, so maybe check out steamunpowered's list:

http://steamunpowered.eu/steam-alternatives/

Edit: Just noticed on their list that gamersgate has no SSL. That's interesting, I'll make sure I don't buy there if they can't provide proper encryption.

ShadowHearth

FlyingIrishMan

This might be of interest as well: http://ww1.cheapshark.com/
I use it, very handy when there is a particular game I want to find.
They check every website, compare prices, and you can search for a game you want and if it goes on sale, or goes under a certain price they will email you telling you where.

What is the story with the tracking on anpost. So ye think that once a packages comes in from Germany, anpost would have the details on their sites?
