Apparently not. Alternative, torrent Insanity and workout in front of your monitor.
01:49:36 Whiplash
They realise they could exercise in front of a TV without a console, right?
01:48:49 Jake
Xbox Fitness. Get those soccer moms, Microsoft.
01:48:26 Jake
Shocking news, some of Microsoft's touted fifteen exclusives this year are Kinect krap.
01:40:13 Jake
It's pretty much a fact.
01:39:29 Whiplash
Also, guys who speak of "alpha" and "beta" males are uniformly douchebags: am I right or am I wrong?
01:33:26 Whiplash
While I agree that tattoos are generally awful, awful things done by idiots, those are some terrible supporting arguments
01:30:31 Whiplash
At least it looks well done, if a terrible choice to start with
01:30:18 Whiplash
Oh dear Emma Watson
01:29:35 Jake
Poe's law.

People are still allowed to talk
00:40:27 Whiplash
Although I suppose the birth will help his family get through it
00:40:11 Whiplash
Also his first grandchild was only a few months away
00:39:45 Whiplash
I'm mostly worried that 1. my aunt will become a crazy dog person and 2. my cousin is already in hospital with an eating disorder
00:38:51 Death Penalty
My best wishes go out to you and your family.
00:35:17 Whiplash
Okay, thank you
00:34:55 Whiplash
*show
00:34:54 Death Penalty
Listening and closeness is generally all that's required. The effects won't be immediate, but remind them that you're family too and you're there.
00:34:42 Whiplash
How do I how that I care?
00:34:36 Whiplash
Or the various war lords that roam through central Africa like a pestilence
00:34:20 Oracle
Also, sorry to hear about your uncle. My condolences : (
00:33:57 Oracle
In my experience, just being there for them and showing that you care is worth everything.
00:33:43 Whiplash
The cats have both settled down on my bed now
00:33:20 Whiplash
How do I help the family members that are having a really hard time though?
00:33:03 Whiplash
The people doing the hacking in Africa are the Africans, mostly the Muslim extremists
00:32:45 Whiplash
1. If you speak with a London accent, your land is Britain you shitstreak, 2. It's been about 100 years since the British hacked anyone to death
00:31:58 Death Penalty
You don't have to do anything Claire. Just maybe try to help those family members that are having a really hard time with it, or seek help if you are too.
00:31:56 Whiplash
Speaking in a London accent, the man, looking agitated and angry, said: "I apologise that women had to witness that, but in our lands our women have to see the same thing."
00:31:27 Death Penalty
Fucking radicals.
00:30:52 Whiplash
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-05-2...attack/4707506
00:30:21 Whiplash
It was for the poor soldier
00:29:45 Jake
At the very least it wasn't a massive attack.
00:29:36 Whiplash
It was very sudden (duh, heart attack) and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do
00:29:30 Death Penalty
I am sorry I led you astray with false assumptions.
00:29:24 Jake
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...or-attack.html
00:29:21 Death Penalty
If it makes you feel better, Kevin Conroy is probably working on the next-gen Arkham after all.
00:29:05 Death Penalty
Also, I'm sorry to hear about your uncle, Claire.
00:28:28 Death Penalty
Dear lord, another one?
00:24:41 Whiplash
And the cats are responding by trashing my room to see what kind of sound it makes
00:23:47 Whiplash
Also my uncle had a heart attack and died last night
00:05:19 Jake
Oh FFS.
23:47:41 Whiplash
Did you hear about the attack in the UK?
23:10:46 Jake
An atheist in Oklahoma saying it on national television. She'll be stoned for sure.
22:52:52 Death Penalty
Hell, I even had to trick my Skype program not to save things automatically to the C drive.
22:51:39 Death Penalty
So it's a real good idea not to fill one up, and not to use it to store new data that doesn't require quick access. Just a few select things that you want to run very smoothly.
22:49:11 Death Penalty
And yeah, they degrade. Their performance dulls over time and because of the way they store data they can only be rewritten so many times before they break.
22:48:39 Death Penalty
I wouldn't waste one on a laptop, especially at the current price point.
22:47:39 Ethan
those prices
22:47:34 Ethan
but...
22:47:32 Ethan
I've wanted one since my new laptop has room for two hard drives, hoping to put the OS and maybe some games on it for fast loading
22:47:02 Ethan
They degrade?
22:38:29 Death Penalty
If they can solve the degradation problem, that would be pretty cool too.
22:36:08 Death Penalty
Though prohibitively small at this point. I just have my OS on this one.
22:35:51 Death Penalty
I have one of them, and damn it's pretty cool.
22:35:39 Jake
No moving parts, instantaneous loading. My body is ready.
22:35:38 Death Penalty
They'll get there. Already dropping in price.
22:35:05 Death Penalty
It's starting to make more traditional storage even cheaper than it already was.
22:35:04 Jake
I just want SSDs to get cheap enough for mass storage.
22:34:47 Death Penalty
Solid state drives are the new hotness.
22:34:36 Jake
Of course, it's not external. BUT MY POINT STANDS.
22:32:49 Jake
That one goes for $60 which is the price of a game here.
22:32:33 Jake
They're already cheap as hell.
22:32:27 Jake
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136534
22:32:14 Agustazz
I guess it's fine.
22:32:09 Agustazz
So it is theoretically meant to store other stuff other than games. Although that's what the cloud's for...
22:31:42 Agustazz
Yeah, but you're missing the part where it is supposed to be the center of your liing room.
22:30:37 Agent Dunham
And if 500 is as laughable as 20 in 5 years time, then a 2TB external should be cheap as chips
22:29:37 Jake
And you can always delete it when you're done and reinstall when/if you want to revisit it.
22:28:21 Agent Dunham
Even if you assume that most games will be ~50GB, that's still 10 whole games
22:28:03 Jake
All that CG. All that uncompressed audio. Multiple language tracks, etc.
22:27:39 Jake
A Naughty Dog game for PS3 averages 50GB. But they're on the high end of the spectrum.
22:26:42 Agent Dunham
Size probably won't increase so dramatically
22:26:33 Death Penalty
The internal is 500G? Not too shabby.
22:25:38 Jake
You can always reinstall them if you want to replay them.
22:25:16 Jake
THEN DELETE SOME OF YOUR GAMES.
22:25:10 Agustazz
I think the only think I like from Xbox One is the new controller.
22:24:39 Agustazz
Wiihew?
22:24:31 Agustazz
22:24:03 Agustazz
In 5 years 500gb might be a small amount, like 80gb are now.
22:23:42 Agustazz
I'm talking about the console, not the games.
22:23:07 Agent Dunham
Yup, that's precisely why the Wii U doesn't get a pass
22:22:38 Jake
8GB. One update. You're out of space.
22:22:17 Agent Dunham
It's pretty obvious what it's for
22:22:10 Jake
This isn't exactly a Wii U situation. 8GB for basic. 32GB for premium. Because wow, that's just so much space in 2013.
22:21:49 Agent Dunham
On the side of the console is a lone USB port
22:21:09 Agent Dunham
500GB is a lot, but the ability to use an external hard drive is for power users
22:20:03 Agent Dunham
Be honest, bro
22:19:54 Agent Dunham
How many 5 year old games do you still play regularly?
22:19:08 Agustazz
And demos, and what not.
22:18:54 Agustazz
I still use my 80gb PS3, but I had to delete a lot of videos to install Bioshock for example.
22:18:26 Agustazz
What if in 5 years you need more room?
22:18:15 Jake
Oh, right. Good ole Australian retailers.
22:18:10 Agent Dunham
And we couldn't have that
22:17:46 Agent Dunham
It would have given an alternative to shelling out 1000 dollary-doos
22:17:07 Agent Dunham
We never got the 20GB PS3 here
22:16:38 Jake
And I remember the basic one just used a memory card.
22:16:07 Jake
My original 360 only had a 20GB as well.
22:15:37 Jake
Remember one of the launch models with a 20GB? Oh man, we were all so naive then.
