It's a 19" LCD for under $300(AR). I'm so glad that these prices are finally coming down.

Yes, I know we should copy the link and paste it into a new browser to avoid this.

Sigh, I actually got the link from the author on a different forum. The author made the same mistake -_-. Editing my post to use a code block. You might want to change yours as well.

Isn't this like Informedia? Speaking of Informedia, what are they up to these days anyway?

Yeah I though of that when I first heard the new. Not sure what's up with Informedia nowadays. I am sure they are working on something important.

Technically safe for work... but I'll call this NSFW anyway. Has to be seen to be believed.For those of you who don't have kids or are far too young to remember
the splendid children's TV programme "Rainbow", this may be a little
lost on you...... but it must have been a great episode to watch!
Almost too ridiculous to believe... These are taken from original
Rainbow scripts and there's no way these could have been done by
accident. Innuendo all the way....

Pretty smooth, except for Jane: "Ooooh yes, and I was banging away all last night with Rod and Roger." Also, Geoffrey gave "plucking" the wrong intonation once or twice. His mind was clearly not on the twanger at hand.
Silly hippies.

"We are not in the business of making movies," Mr. Schamus said, not entirely facetiously. "The movie experience you have when you buy a ticket is subsidizing an ad campaign for a DVD and a cable show."
Interesting line in an otherwise straightforward article about the place of the mid-sized movie in modern Hollywood.

MinGW also distributes MSys, which basically gives you a Win32 POSIX shell. Nice if you want to write or run shell scripts instead of DOS batch files without the headache of MinGW.

So in the commercials, by no sexual side effects they actually mean spontaneous orgasms lasting for 2 hours. What if you take Wellbutrin with Cialis? Could you have an erection lasting for four hours with spontaneous emissions for two hours? Doctors would have to prescribe extra pants too.
Maybe if a man comes in depressed the doctor should prescribe Cialis for the man and Wellbutrin for his wife. He might be too depressed for sex but the decision would be taken from him. Then the natural activation of his reward pathway from the sex could alleviate his depression.
This is a perfect plan with no flaws. Especially if the doctor prescribes a video camera too.

This is sort of a strange snippet to include at the end of the article... I guess it's only strange because most writers aren't nice enough to include facts like this I suppose.

In this high school, the sluttiest girl slept with 6 guys. The sluttiest guy slept with 9 girls. Also, take a look at that love triangle in the upper right. Girl 1 sleeps with Girl 2 who sleeps with Boys 1-4, one of whom sleeps with Girl 1!
Where are the gay boys? Oh, wait, I found one. But his partner slept with a girl! And I found another one. They both slept with multiple girls! Either this is the most bisexual high school ever, or we have some really confused students here.
Oh, yeah, the big chain is also significant.
