Nightwish rocked. Chicks in gothic lolita outfits, the new singer was cute, and Nighwish owned ass.

p>Observation of the day (year?nbsp; Its been forever since I’ve had an opinion on anything..):nbsp; XBox 360 + Optical audio + Dolby Digital 5.1:nbsp; Set the front speakers within our amp’s configuration to be “Small”.nbsp; Dolby Digital will then force all low frequencies to the subwoofer regardless of the LFE channel’s material./p> p>My problem was Guitar Hero 2 for the 360 doesn’t have a dedicated LFE track, and we weren’t hearing any low frequencies outta our sub.nbsp; GH2 just shoved 20hz-20khz right down the Lamp;R channels, and our amp, in dolby digital mode, didn’t punt anything to the sub for us thinking that I had full-range speakers.nbsp; Our Bose Lamp;R speakers, however, have an internal crossover that high-pass at 250hz./p> p>Guitar Hero 3 and RockBand both have LFE channels and the amp decoded LFE as intended.nbsp; Fascinating./p>
Comments Off p>New Dell 13″ laptop rocks.nbsp; Vista is good.nbsp; Windows Live suite of crap is actually really good, including the LiveJournal client.nbsp; And the Windows Live Email client works great.nbsp; So does Pidgin.nbsp; Its like I have a real computer, not a little text terminal client that connects to iRev to have the server run all my programs./p>
A 3-image focus on Elliot the cat. Adding to Livejournal cat image ratio.

Elliot’s Thumb, 20070828/span>
13 quantity 10-hour days straight completed, two days off start now. To celebrate, I challenged the entire stage crew to my old PlayStation copy of “You Don’t Know Jack”.
Really an example of how my wife has influenced me. I am the dumb, but she trained me well in trivia stuff.
So, everyone against me. I would sit there and let them debate the answer, let them get it wrong, and then I’d answer correctly. Like, one question was “Who was Rainbow Bright’s arch nemesis?” Everyone moaned, “how the hell could anyone know that!”
Duh, Murky Dismal. Its like, fucking Rainbow Bright! Popped the answer in with one smooth motion of the controller. Required knowledge for 80′s cartoon lore. I started to explain to the crew like Twink the sprite and Starlite the horse and stuff and I think that kinda sealed with them that I’m just a flat out genius. Or really highly retarded.
The crew vs me: one round, a tie. $12,000 each.
Also, Battlestar Galactica is fucking awesome.
The Windows Vista “wait circle” mouse cursor. It “spins” too fast. It makes me anxious. I like the firefox “loading” dotted circle cause its more… taking its time. its like, “it’ll be done in a sec”. The Vista “wait” cursor is more like “OMG RUSH RUSH”

With all the free time I now have before working the “Wayne Brady” shows at night, I’ve actually been productive again! I’ll still play on “AnimaRO” occasionally when I wanna wack on some zombies, but now after hosting a Ragnarok Online game for a few months and seeing all there really is to see in the game, I guess I’m mostly done.
img src=”http://presence.irev.net/storage/linkstation-ls1-ppc.jpg” border=”1″ align=”right” vspace=”8″ hspace=”8″>First, I “hacked” my little “LinkStation” NAS toy, a 200mhz PowerPC 603 box with a 300gig hard drive and ethernet port, with a Linux 2.6 kernel and two external USB drives, for a total of 800 gigabytes of storage. Put Wndrbr3d’s music archive on there. Woo, yay lots of storage space and little electricity usage!
Today I also got an oil change for my truckie. The oil change guys gave me a list two pages long of all the things they don’t like about my truck. I offered to sell it to them for two grand, they passed it up. Then I got a hair cut. From a straight dude who had long black curly wavy sexy hair. I tipped him 7 bucks cause I accidentally for reals wanged him in the nutsack when he tried to hand me a mirror to look at the back of my hair. Seriously oops, but still, its a nice cut, and he respected my choice of hair conditioner, even if he disappoved of it.
Ants invaded our bathroom, first time I’ve ever had a bug problem in our home since we got pest control like 4 years ago. I spent some time destroying them, but had to go to the pet store and purchase replacement cat food. I dunno if ants in catfood makes catfood bad, but I vote “Gross”.
And the fishy gentlemen got themselves fresh filters today, so the better I can strain out their fishy poos. They appreciate it, they have informed me via memo.
In a dangerous move of “lets see what happens”, we’ve given both the dog and cat their free access via doggie-door to the backyard. The hope is that during the day, the cat will dislike the heat so bad he won’t go far. At night, we’ll lock them both inside. Here’s praying for the safety of the cat, while knowing the dog has her rightful access to her backyard to bark at the birds.
Gizmo brought over his old GameCube gear for the Wii, I intend to enjoy some “Metroid Prime” that Kelly hooked me up with this upcoming week. Wndr and his chickie are in town, one week after Gizmo visited Vegas for his special purposes. His special purposes to pursue repairs for his machine, Wndr’s and Jenn’s to swim in the Vegas heat. Perhaps food will be shared by us all.
Woo!
