  1. Oh i forgot to mention I fixed it myself. About 30mins after the original post.
  2. What about a racer, TTbike, BMX, moto trials bike and a pogo stick? I feel so dirty
  3. Why is it I want to ride so bad ride now, Ive just watched some really inspiring videos and the weather is good and everything.. But.. My bike has a puncture and I really really cant be bothered to fix it. Its like some kind of mental block.. a clash inside my head, because I want to ride, but I dont want to fix th puncture. This cant be normal? Anyone else get the same thing? Or am I just being a plank? Im a muppet.
  4. I dont understand much of what anyone said but I will go with what you said and not bother with the upgrade Cheers guys.
  5. Sounds like a good enough reason not to attend if you ask me.
  6. XPS 420 Viiv Intel® Processor Q6600 Quad Core™ (2.40GHz, 1066Mhz FSB, 8MB cache) [included in Price] OR XPS 420 E8500 Core 2 Duo Processor (3.16GHz, 6MB, 1333MHz) [add £60.00 or £2/month1] Ummm.. ? Please explain the benefits? :$
  7. Haha, 20minutes too late Not a bad idea really.. I suck at cooking though so maybe a more appropriate idea would to teach myself to cook Halfway through DLing Al Murray actually, but I wanna do something more exciting As for girls, I only live on a small island and Ive already worked my through most of the girls I know! Need to try find some more
  8. Basically recently Ive found myself with lots of spare time and not a lot to do. For example, tonight im bored and all my friends are either being boring or busy. So. What can I do? Keep it clean guys, posting "have a wnk m8" = you fail at life. So far Im thinking bottle of wine down the beach.. But that is uber sad.. i think? Im going to grab some food, i better have some suggestions when i get back!
  9. Wow lots of really good replies, thanks guys! Do I need 4gb of ram? Also what is normal windows and how do you go about getting a 64bit version? off the shelf? Yeah thats right HDV. To be honest I wont be focusing mainly on HD I just want that option. Im not really confident enough to build my own, Im worried about compatibility issues, the fact that I lack motivation and would probably have the boxes sat around for ages etc etc I think Id be happier with a 'package'. Another thing, you cant bodge a PC.. and you cant fix a pc with a hammer Really useful post, thanks. Hadnt thought about that
  10. A fair point Yeah the ratio is like 1:1 I think, you get warnings though. So they let you know if you need to upload some more and stop being a leeching b*****d My ratio is something like 1:8 so I have no worries anyway.
  11. Martin, I double dare you to try and sell your autograph on ebay
  12. Ok torrents work like this.. Somebody has the file on their computer and says hey, I want to share this. People download the file from that person. They decide they also want to share it. So like 10people are now sharing the same file. When you click download you are connecting to THEM and downloading little bits of the file from all of them. All Demonoid and other torrent sites do is give you a place to put all the files together in a searchable way. So people go on demonoid and put up a topic (like a forum) saying they have the file available to sharing. Does that make sense? P.S. The reason Demonoid is regarded as one of the better sites is that it has share ratios, which basically means you have to distribute (seed) as much as you download (leech). This means demonoid download rates are generally very high. Theres a strong sense of community too and the chances of you DLing a dodgy file very low. In short, it rocks.
  13. Demonoid doesnt host files. Demonoid is a tracker.
  14. Ok basically Im looking for a Desktop, primarily for video/image editing. HD is definitely an idea im toying with sooo im looking at big RAM, powerful CPU etcetera. I dont care about fancy looks or anything, Id like a pretty big monitor though so I can watch movies. Big hardrive would be preferable but it doesnt really matter as I already have a big ass external. I went on the Dell website and got their Live Help. They reccomended I get the XPS 420 --> Second in from the right. My budget is approx. 800. But that one is like 600 and seems ideal (to the untrained eye). What do you guys think? Anything else to consider? There are also loads of upgrades available on that base package? Do I need any? HELP
  15. Ditto, It came through on my blackberry.. brightened up my day at work haha!
  16. Im gonna try my best to be there dude, I cant remember if I went on last years or the year before.. but the last one I did was AWESOME. Looking forward to it. Hope I can get the time off
  17. Plus they monitor your sharing ratio and you get warnings which lead to a ban if you dont share as much as you upload. This means you get much better download speeds and because its very much a community you get less viruses and crap media.
  18. You only get limited invites on Demonoid and ive promise friends to sort them out, so i cant give out anymore just yet im afraid.
  19. PMing you both with invites now

    Demonoid

    Just thought you guys would be interested to know Demonoids back, not sure for how long mind you! Its servers are now in the Ukraine.. man that site gets around! There are talks on slashdot and other sites that this could be a setup to catch file sharers.. Seems a bit far fetched to me? One other thing, try to post sensibly as this topic is pretty much against the forum rules!
