Yeah, I really liked the orange one actually. I hate both the new ones.

The skin options are racist on this form.



Got back from the MN state fair. I've never seen that large of a group of people at once.

Unless I leave Australia I'll never see more than a few tens of thousands of people at once.

Sup casual.

Does anyone know anything about these basses?

Spector Extreme HZ Fire is what it seems to be called. However, I can't seem to find anything about them online or any videos of youtube.

$400 is a steal for any good spector, but I can't figure out what price range it actually belongs in.

Looks a lot like an old NS2006 to me, although the preamp appears to be modified. I wouldn't get it because it doesn't have the NS carved body.

I am looking for a computer program that acts as a drum machine. I know that you can make midi file drum loops etc blah blah. I don't have the time or drum knowledge tohave to write them. I just want to practice playing with a drummer.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good drum machine program for windows??

If you are a dirty pirate you can get Reason and use the Redrum drum machine or one of the other ones it has, good stuff in Ableton Live too if I remember correctly but they're all very expensive to buy or huge downloads to steal.

There's a few freeware ones out there but I've never been too impressed by their soundbanks.

Well I got invited to a gay orgy tonight whilst working... I LOVE my job sometimes.

Haha.

Hey, don't you usually start posting a little earlier... :amaze:

I don't finish work till 10.30. And by work I mean buttsecks.

I wrote this on my works FB page about it.

Topic: How to invite a local bottle shop attendant to a gay orgy in three easy steps

1) Wear the most dishevelled clothing that is still socially acceptable and head down to your shop of choice with $17 in coins to get as much PassionPop as possible. You should purchase at least 3 bottles, this will most likely get the attendants attention so he'll think you're a big spender and a potential sugar daddy.

2) Whilst making your purchase, nuzzle playfully into your boyfriends neck and claim to be too stupid to figure out how much Pop you can purchase; this is a good excuse to engage the attendant in friendly chit-chat. If you can drop in a lead-on line like "I'm going to whip you when we get home," to your lover this is a huge plus.

3) No need for subtlety here, mid-transaction as the attendant is counting your disgusting change pile simply spurt out something like "we're having an orgy tonight, do you want to come?!" Not only will this let the attendant know you mean business but he will mostly likely look up at you - while making eye contact a seductive hair toss is a good deal maker.

Now you should be ready for a great night in the housing commission, just be careful not to wake the neighbours ;)

Passion Pop is got dang filth.

I just nearly killed my PS2 by pulling it off the table accidentally. I think it can live on the floor now.

PS2? They still make those antiquated machines? PS5 is where it's at.

asfgag, what happened to my skin? I hate change.

Otherwise, good morning.

I want orange back.

This isn't that bad, but I liked the old dark. I'll get used to it, but i'll complain for a little right now.

I finally got rid of my crazy subletter. The day he was supposed to leave, I go and knock on his door and tell him its time to go, cause my room mate wanted to move his stuff in. Then I go and move a couple boxes and come back, and I hear him yelling "Jesse" in his damnable french accent. Turns out he broke the doorknob and couldn't get out of the room.

Hahahahaha!!! I love French people, I really do. But he sounds like a douche.

No, not a douche, nuts.

He would go to use the bathroom, and you would hear the water running, like he was running a bath. Then it would stop, the lights would go out, he would start talking to himself, then the maniacal laughter would commence, and he would stay in there for like an hour and a half.

Well I still like French people. Did you bone him???

I bet you did. That's why you want him to leave.

They may still make them but I bought mine a while back. I felt so conflicted the day I bought it, I'd always been a Nintendo kid prior to that.

I've been a PS guy since the beginning. PS3 is fantabulous.

Fruity Loops.

You create your own, but it's ridiculously easy to create your own.

Other than that, your best bet is to go to google and type in "online drum beats"

Yeah, I do like my PS3. Got some great games but I still enjoy my PS2 just as much.

This sounds like the making of an awesome reality show.

I sold mine, and I regret it because I didn't get a PS3 that was backwards compatible! MGS3 is just sitting there, wanting to be played.

Yeah man, the most disappointing thing about my PS3 is that it isn't backwards compatible :(.

Or the fact that it isn't made by Microsoft.

Nah I'm glad about that, Microsoft make piss poor consoles, they've got no game soul.

The season would come to an end when my body was discovered mutilated with all of my orifices stuffed full of frozen fries and microwave chicken nuggets.

Microsoft is pretty average, they have a conglomerate more or less and simply capitalise on mediocre products because of their name and the weight that it carries. Apple does more or less the same thing, they just sell "ergonomics" and "style" instead of "reliability" and "experience". It's all marketing at the end of the day and they play off each other, the PC vs. Mac debate is a classic example of gross consumerism.

Sony may be more expensive but at the end of the day they make the best/most powerful ****. The Bravia LCD line, BluRay discs, PS as opposed to Xbox, etc.

You told me you wouldn't tell..

I'm interested in that super thin LED TV they've been hawking on the ads with the hummingbird. Looks proper.

LED is the way of the future so long as the green bandwagon still dominates global marketing.

I wouldn't turn one down if someone offered me one.

Hell, I'll plant a tree and water it every day in exchange for one.

Raayl, I know you hate Tool, but if you haven't given Puscifer's [I]V is for omnibus[/I] a listen, you should do so. It's very electronic/industrial and I think you'd like it. If you don't like it, sorry I suggested it.

I [B]may[/B] or may not be able to YSI if you're interested. Same goes for anybody that is interested.

Yeah me to. But the fact is that the green market is just that, a market; all this eco-friendly **** was here all along but it was only two years ago everyone stopped shitting because they were worried about their "carbon footprint". The brutal irony of 'turn your lights off, it saves electricity' is that while is may decrease YOUR power output the rest of the excess power is still going to go somewhere; usually pumping water up hills at night to vent the excess. You can't just "turn off" a nuclear or coal ****ing reactor. Only after a long period of national cooperation will power pollution outputs decrease. That and the fact that Australia account for "**** all" of the world carbon output. And furthermore carbon is necessary for LIFE, it just goes back into the atmosp-

continue ad nauseam.

I have to stop.

It's the same as the low carb beer market and the ipod market, they're just markets; but they're not markets that are being exploited anymore - they're markets that are being [B]created[/B]. And that's the truly scary part.

It's no longer "drink this beer if you're health conscious!" (bullshit anyway, but that's another story) it's "you need to drink this beer or you're unhealthy". i.e. forcing a market opening.

And that's what I dislike about modern society and the mass popular media, the manufactured need for the manufactured product.

Yeah, personally I just want a TV with a **** hot picture.

Can't hate a market for being a market, unless we're all going to live as subsistence farmers it's tough to draw lines at what people "need".

The whole climate change argument doesn't bother me because it seems predicated on the concept that the Earth should always remain habitable to humans. It wasn't before, it won't be in future, what's the big deal, extinction happens. Do people think humanity will persist forever? What a joke. Of course I think it's smart to take good care of the planet but, sooner or later the Earth is going to be uninhabitable and humans will be extinct so, people should see the bigger picture before they start acting high and mighty for taking useless steps to try and make a difference. "I'm saving the world by growing my own lettuce", eat a dick, hippies.

I get too worked up ever since I did media studies and marketing. Sigh.

And yep, I have a "green" TV. It turns itself off when I'm not in the room :D

I'll admit though, that is a handy feature, green or not.

It just saves electricity, which saves you money on your electric bill AND it keeps the screen lasting longer. I see no cons.
