Creative audio cards. For how popular Linux has become there is still no support from this company to get proper drivers into Linux.

I mean I love creative audio chip products. The sound quality for me has always been good on windows based computers. But, every time I go to Linux I just have to deal with it.

Guess I am off to newegg for a proper sound card since creative can't get their act together.

Quote from: CGQuarterly on 04/26/2015, 09:50 PMI feel like you must not be married.
No kids either. Its pretty damn sweet.
I don't have any kids, either.  But at my age, I can't imagine not being married.  I'm too old to be out on the dating scene.  I got lucky and met my wife when we were in college, though...
Seriously, I'm happy for you, bro. I'm 38 ATM and marriage just seems like such a HUGE deal to me. Maybe I'm over-thinking the steps that are involved. Selling my condo. Moving in with her. The wedding. The honeymoon. House shopping with my GF. Am I over-thinking the whole thing? Married guys help me out here. lol

QuotePeople who put a make offer button on ebay and then refuse reasonable offers.
Guy had an uncommon Japanese naval history book I wanted. It normally goes for about $75. His Ebay page lists the bidding price at $95. The auction winds down to about a day and some change. I offer $80. He rejects it. Auctions ends with me having no book, and him having no money. Grrrr.
My past-life would've surely led to our demise, and I had left it not a moment too soon. Our escape, though dangerous, had gone well. The train ride, sunlight, and passing snow-covered pine trees came together in a flickering show of our bright, new future together. Her head rested on my shoulder as she soundly slept to the gentle rocking of the passenger car. We felt freedom. We felt peace.

Had that recently following a root canal. Granted, I didn't give up drinking for it.

Meh, it's not so bad. For one, you can have her move into your condo. I say skip the wedding and elope. I wish I had. If it were not for her parents paying for the whole thing and a guaranteed 5 figure addition to the bank account afterward from charitable guests, I would have adamantly refused. We could have easily taken but a fraction of the money that was spent on the wedding could have had a nicer honeymoon.

Speaking of which, honeymoons are awesome. Get away from it all. Have lots of sex. See something cool (we went to Italy). House shopping only really comes into play if you two want kids. At 38, do you really want to start having kids? Maybe if she's under 30, otherwise I'd advise. That's not to say it shouldn't or can't be done—my own parents were almost 40 when I was born, but then again, I have siblings over a decade older than me.

Marriage is nice. I've not been married long, but I've been with my wife (dating, engagement, etc.) for seven years. It keeps me from having to worry about being on the prowl, it provides another income (a god-given gift in NYC), and the constant company is actually nice: somewhere between loneliness and having plenty of time alone.

Rich people.
I was a Starbucks this morning just catching up on work emails.  There were a bunch of rich housewives at the table near me.  The nonsense that they were talking about was truly mind blowing.  Truly first world problems and neither were happy with their lot in life -- all of them were complaining about petty nonsense or others. 

Sad really.

I bet they were discussing how much they pay rent for their trendy flat in an inner city ghetto then complain when they have to share the pavement with beggars and druggies.

Just really pointless and inane garbage mostly.  What their nannies do.  How their kids have all these mystery allergies and ailments.  How they have to wait in line at Whole Foods.  Stuff that most of us don't even have on our radars.

Also, hate is so taxing. Get riled up, but then go drink/sleep it off.

Ah yes, the diuretic effect of caffeine. You need to follow up with a glass of water and/or milk given the reports of accelerated bone loss it supposedly causes but that's more if you drink 3 or more cups of coffee a day and are past middle-age when that starts happening anyway, etc. Too much of anything is not a good idea... One cup in the morning to help break grogginess is alright by me.

wildfruit

When will you people ditch coffee for tea.
Regular tea. Not no chamomile or green or herbal.
Add milk and maybe sugar.
Enjoy. Thank me later.

I drink a cup of Earl Grey or two every morning.  My teeth are not very thankful though, they are obviously getting tarnished.

I love tea, too. (All sorts, but of course a majority is just standard black tea).

I drink the shite out of it.

But, I rarely put milk/sugar in it (only for a "special treat").

for "my daughter"... yeah, right. we believe you. no, really...
My friends gave me their old one (different style, similar concept), so I am grateful I never had the pleasure of assembling it!

My twins use it more now than they ever have in past four years.



I despise the never-ending list of things to fix in my house...

My water heater died yesterday! I hate unexpected $$$$$$ expenses (messes up the damn budget).

But, I am lucky that I caught it as a small leak and it didn't flood my basement with 50+ gallons of water.
