Really Boring Stuff Only III: Resurrection

[Adam]

Well, time to get ready, head out the door, and sprint down the block with Niki to where a neighborhood dog meets her at his wall. She used to do that all of the time, then that guy moved away with his dog - but they're back after a couple of years. It's awesome to see her so excited again! She just tears down the street to see him.

so... story time!

if you dont know what a DoS attack is read this first How a 'denial of service' attack works - CNET News

2 days ago... i was talking to someone on skype..
a friend i made on facebook...
he started having internet problems during the call..
he asked if i was DoSing him...
laughed and said no...
i thought he was kidding....
he seriously thought he was getting DoSed by me...
not sure if he actually got DoSed..
anyways they decided to get my ip...

through skype....
12 hours later....
while i was at school.

so they got my schools ip address....
so they called the school saying i DoSed someone from my school at 11pm....
then the guy got DoSed again apparently.
so now they have called my isp....
even though i havent DoSed anyone...

i feel like they arent gonna get too far with this. since they have no evidence that they even got DoSed...

What a mistake it was reading this thread...since I've only had two apples for lunch.

Funny...you usually like plums.

I was going to joke about them being more like prunes these days, but he does like 'em young.



Fruit, that is.



From trees.

Shouldn't you be working on a project? Any progress this week?

I did a few things after work a few evenings to get the wall 'more' ready to close. Last Sunday I did the final assembly on the cabinet. This Sunday it comes home. I don't know who is going to be happier ... me or Eddie. But this is some fancy sh!t. I'm having trouble seeing/visualizing how the trim will play out but having the cabinet here will help that right along.

Touché. I thought that I had all the bases covered...but I missed that one.

 

[Adam]

What ?!? So what's the score?

I mean how many more fake monikers am I gonna need for you to get the Ultra?

You know you want it ...

I don't know the score, but I'm pretty sure that I'm not winning. You'll probably need about ten of them. J/K!

Yeah, I sure would like it...but Steve and Marshall put up some outstanding reviews. Any one of us could take it.

It looks like voting ended on the 19th and you're tied w/ PBC. Not sure what that means, maybe you get dual custody?

Gene extended the contest to the 24th after he discounted the votes in the poll on Monday night so people would have time to get their votes in again. The poll is probably closed, but the contest keeps going through Monday. People need to post in that thread to vote for who they want to win.

If we get dual custody, I hope that he really just wants the grill, the feet, the power cord, and the shipping box.

 

[Alex2507]

Listen Up B!tches ...

Go to this thread and reply with "Adam's review is the best." ... even though it's not.

He deserves that free sub and you should vote for him. Register as a member if you need to, log in ... whatever. Just get that sh!t done. No excuses.

 

[Adam]

Okay, so who wants to start the next Boring thread when this one gets shut down?

Thanks, Alex! Ummm, I think...what do you mean that mine wasn't the best?

Vote for the review that you liked the best - if that's mine, awesome...if it's not, still awesome. Just please vote. There were ~375 votes in the poll, and I can't believe that 75% of those were fake.

Think of it this way - the more people who participate, the better the odds that another company will look at this and think, "hey, I'd like to sponsor a contest to get some advertising." Plus, it increases the odds that Gene will want to hold another one. In other words - it increases the chances that you could win something in the future. I'm guessing that SVS wanted to get the word out about their sub and therefore offered up one as a prize, and I think that it was successful - people here saw it, people came from other forums, from Facebook, from all over. I'm sure that Gene likes to get participation in and viewing of AH up, and this sure did it. I'm guessing that hundreds if not thousands of people who hadn't heard of, or new very little about, AH came here to see the reviews.

 

[Adam]

I hope that I don't make a mess in the house next week. I expect to be expelling large quantities of fluids as I masticate like I've never masticated before.

When my SSD arrived last weekend, I installed it and ran the recovery discs for my machine. Worked great. However, I decided that I wanted to clone my old drive - there was a mistake. Three weekend days of aggravation later, and it still didn't work. I'll blame my own incompetence for part of it, but for the other part - Norton Ghost can suck it.

I went back to just running the recovery discs and reconfiguring everything the way that I wanted it. That sure took a lot less than tree days. Eh, whatever. I'm surfing AH and playing StarCraft II. Life is good.

You realize you could have done a straight copy of your porn collection, right?

I can't bring myself to buy an SSD personally. Every time I get psyched up for it, I remind myself, wtf do I really do with a computer except surf the net and argue with people.
