Fucking spammers. I would deal with that shit IF I was a mod or tech.

The snow was gone and the temps were in the 30's. Nothing like more snow to make things better!

[///M5 2,833]

We've got nice snow and I have a misfiring sled.

Think it is in the cap. I've trimmed and shortened and it works for a few minutes then goes south again.

Тhe forecast is no more snow or rain for a month. I may wait a few days for the streets to dry up and give the Toyota a wash. She's so dirty.

new car. cruisin' for grannys if anyone want to come lol

Nice yacht.

They're actually no bigger than your P5. Slightly longer and wider than a Cavalier.

 

 

The one I rode in, felt like should have dressed more appropriately.

I'm leaning towards the Toshiba Qosmio x70.

It gets a bad wrap for overheating, but apparently all notebooks with the 770m do. I also read a review where it gets better FPS. Not that I really give a fuck, but more of a "future proofing" for the next couple years as software changes.

It comes with Photoshop and elements free.

The only downsides are

17.3 inch is huge

Questionable heat issues pumps enough heat it can make your mouse hand uncomfortable from some reviews

I will probably have to buy a regular adobe suite anyway

No SSD at the $1300 price

Up side is

Cheep for everything you get

17.3 for cheep and will help with photo work

Apparently really quiet

My Toshiba Qosmio cooked its GPU, I sent it in twice to to Toshiba, only to be told they could no longer source the GPU.  So I have a $1700 super tank lappy, that is dead in the water and only 2.5 years old.

One of the reasons I'm scared buying a laptop, if I ever need one. With a PC you can change whatever, whenever.

Buy a common laptop. I've replaced dang near everything except a mobo in all sorts of laptops.

Damn near the same power to weight ratio as my NA snowmobile engine

I just wanna strap 4 of those 3 cylinder beast to each other!

[Tirefryr 1,742]

It's a race engine. I'm not impressed.

Now if they would just put that much effort into the quality of their road cars.....

[The enD 467]

Yeah, cause the GTR has proven to be a piece of shit.

Is it integrated into the mobo, or could you buy a broken laptop off Ebay for parts?

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

Yeah, cause the GTR has proven to be a piece of shit.

 

Sorry, I meant their normal cars.  GM does the same thing with the Vette.  Throw most of the R&D into the car the masses can't afford.

Jared- I'm hunting around, just trying to do homework first

 That's a good call. I started with the Blu the day before I went to Hawaii. I had been cold turkey for almost a month but was being a uptight prick so needed some sort of nicotine and that was the W's suggestion. Mark quit using the Blu last year, which if you remember he was a pretty heavy lemaC smoker. Long story short, I thought the blu sucked as it taste's like meth, and the battery's don't last. I literally would suck until I was blu in the face (pun intended). 

 When I got back I tried Ivy's CE4 tank with a 650 mAh eGo battery and realized how well it worked as a nicotine delivery system and without turning blu in the face. I then remembered I had the eGo starter kit someone had given me. I dug it out and bought the CE4 (2.4ohm) tank at Smoker friendly as my girls store was closed that day. The CE4 was good other than the tank buckling and leaking IF carried in your jeans pocket, and the easy to lose o-ring. After losing the o-ring on the CE4 I remembered I had an H2 (1.8ohm with wick mod) tank and 950 mAh battery my girl had given me the last time I tatt'ed on her. Instantly was happier with the bigger hits from the 1.8 coil. Also the H2 is a cleaner, simpler design with less parts to fuck up. Bought the H2 for Ivy to replace her CE4 and she agreed it was a better budget tank. 

 I also would question anyone I was working on that had a vape pen. As everyone had a different setup I quickly figured out the two most common battery style setups. The one's Seth talks about are AA size'ish and require a seperate charger like one for AA's. This type requires a head unit to hook the battery case to the tank and serve as the controller. These battery setups require a different battery case for each size mAh battery. The other most common battery is the eGo style ones. These are one piece and screw on to a usb cord for charging. The controller is built in to the eGo battery. I upgraded to the Protank and eGo-C Twist once i had a little time in and knew what I was looking for. Believe me it doesn't hurt to have extra's for backups so even if you start with a basic setup and upgrade once your a little more familiar, the money spent won't be in vein. Or if your like me I just give them to others wanting to start vaping.

 If you are just using it as a nicotine delivery system to quit smoking then I suggest get the eGo-C Twist and either the H2 or Protank. The usb cords are like 2 dollars so grab a couple of those too. They did just come out with a slim Protank but the mouth piece has a o-ring push style connection opposed to the

threaded on most tanks. 

 See if there is a local vape store to go try things out. Don't let them sell you a kit if it has bullshit you don't need as you can usually piece a setup together for less.

I think I'm going to have to go in this week or weekend. Get on the way to being cig free.

I'm just shocked Mark quit with the blu.....that is insane.

Marky said he would be hugging that thing from the second he woke up at first. Then as time went on he said he would make it half way through the day without even thinking about. 

 

I could of easily quit after a few months on the Blu also. As I had already went a month. BUT the dynamics of life are currently at a peak so I am not beating myself up over it. As long as I don't start drinking I could care less if I am smoking cigars or a vape pen. Does fell good to be off the Camels though.
