Re: Great bargains from E-bay / Garage / Yard / Car boot sal Not sure what the official nomenclature is, but it had the new Metro-style one. Had a couple of XBLA games on it too. To be honest, I was always a PS3 guy and I was mostly excited about having it so I can play my Xbox games again...

Re: Great bargains from E-bay / Garage / Yard / Car boot sal Xbox 360 Elite. 120GB HDD and Jasper chipset. Dusty as flax but works flawlessly. $10 at Goodwill.

New project! This time something for my guitar. I made a fuzz box. The circuit's called a Bazz Fuss and it's super simple: a transistor, a diode, a resistor, and two capacitors. Powered by a 9v battery. THE GUTS Keeping all the components on a prototype board for the time being in case I...

That is ridiculously nice. Fantastic work!

My top five of last year, in no particular order. Obviously these didn't all come out in 2014. Deadmau5 - "While(1<2)" Coldplay - "Parachutes" Wampire - "Bazaar" Holy Ghost! - "Dynamics" Nine Inch Nails - "Year Zero" Honorable mention goes to Van Morrison's "Astral Weeks." Biggest letdown of...

Hey look, I still make things sometimes! My sister and I both got GoPro Hero 3+ Silvers for Christmas, so naturally DIY GoPro accessories were a priority project. First of all was this chest harness. Made from part of the camera packaging and some nylon webbing/buckles. I made two, one for each...

The video took a while to show up so I was expecting this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-xX7iWvzbo I dunno, though, better than the same five Christmas songs all day erry day :v

I am also not dead. I have two jobs now. Wish I could say I've been having some adventures, but... not really. I haven't advanced at all at my EMS agency despite my best efforts, so while I wait to get an ambulance job, I took another job at Sears. It makes me money and it's not horrible, so I...

Yeah, I've already replaced my Blackberry. :v Don't get me wrong, I loved it, but it was a bit outdated, and I was able to snag a Nokia Lumia 521 for ~$75 after sales tax this weekend. It's pretty cool thus far, and the touchscreen keyboard/autocorrect doesn't drive me insane, so I wanna know...

Re: Great bargains from E-bay / Garage / Yard / Car boot sal I ended up selling FFVII for $75. Might have been able to get even more, but I figure since I spent $2 on it that that was a good enough profit :p Metal Gear Solid is also up for grabs as I already have a copy. Also, I went into...

Re: Prog gets BS for having a PC he's tried replacing for 5 Seriously, guys, this is pretty dumb. If you wanna discuss the finer points of software use and DVD ripping and codecs, by all means, do so. As it is, however, this thread was stupid to begin with, especially for Forum 47 material, so...

Re: Prog gets targeted by elitist assholes for lacking HDD s Hey. I don't rip my DVDs and I use VLC to watch them.

Re: Prog Sucks at Computers

Re: Show us your desktop! STAY ON TOPIC YOU SODS THIS IS STILL FORUM 47 Make a new thread if you wanna discuss this.

I approve, Prog. That's one of my favorite albums ever. This is mine currently.

My Galaxy S2 has been in desperate need of replacement for ages now (especially after a recent incident where it ended up in a puddle of water) and I'm too broke to get anything new, but I need something dependable for work. I do lots of text-based correspondence and dispatch sends texts with...

Re: Great bargains from E-bay / Garage / Yard / Car boot sal Goodwill Bookstore yesterday. $1.99 each. Factory sealed. Aww yiss.

Sorry guys, you know I had to. The temptation was too great XD Thank you for the welcome back all the same! Now, for an actual update on how things are going! I don't entirely know why I dropped off here, to be honest. Just kinda... slipped. But I have had stuff going on! After a rather lame...

Oh hey guys, what's up? Been a while. I actually can't even remember the last thing I posted here... sorry about that. Stuff out of my control has happened. Here's what's been going on, in essence: my family and I have been dealing with homelessness for about eight months now. Back in July we...

I've been doing a lot of hiking lately since the area around where I live is cool and wasteland-y. Yesterday I found some broken shards of antique colored glass in the hills, so I made some wasteland jewelry out of a piece of it.
