  1. urK?!?

     

    Btw fellahs, I can't tell you how much it makes me laugh when everyone starts saying: "urK?!?" Y'all make my heart warm... ::sniffle::

     

    A couple months ago I ended up on a 32 person dust server at a LAN center. Managed to get 31 ppl saying it nonstop. The other guy kept screaming "STOPPIT" followed by other unprintables.

  2. I've had 4 friends and family get it. It is a wonderful procedure, BUT your eyes do revert in 4-7 years to about 30-50% of where they were before, so you'll be back to wearing contacts/glasses again. I've been considering it for about 15yrs now since radik (the scalpel one) was released.

     

    I'd really not recommend it. Supposedly there are some technologies coming out that get around this reversion, but lasiks/radik all basically use the same procedures to correct your vision. The lasiks doctors all say it won't happen, but then I go drinking with my buddy and see him wearing glasses again.

  3. Heh. Well it has a built in spam filter based on google's search engine. That's going to be worth alot. But what isn't really highlighted is that Google is going to be searching your emails as you read them to display context sensitive ads to you. That's a fairly powerful advertising mechanism... but I'm not sure I want to give that up. Especially considering I already have 120gb's available for my personal mailbox.

  4. I don't know about the rest of you folks...but I'm impressed by Chippy's title. Maybe not the job itself (since I'm not sure what it is), but yowza! That's some title.

    My official title at my 2nd startup was "Chief goomba and geekstuff guy" No joke, I have b-cards to prove it

  5. Startups is what I do. I've done 5 in the past 15 years--started out in an IT support capacity and ran the last 2 myself. Currently working on two new ones (last two years): GotFrag - the leading online news site for eSports and a Cancer Diagnostics Biotech company focused on a revolutionary technology which can detect circulating tumor cells in blood.

  6. If you just want CS, you can grab the Steam Cache + CS from GotFrag, here: http://www.gotfrag.com/portal/files/126/

     

    If you want all the Steam games (CS, DOD, TFC etc), you can grab it here: http://www.gotfrag.com/portal/files/24/

     

    Install that, login to steam, steam will update itself and patch CS, then you're good to go.

     

    NB: Those links require a GF account to DL at a 50k cap. Get Prime or search for Steam Cache on fileplanet/fileshack and you can wait in line for it.
