Doom III is out there! W00T!

Damn right. Not over 10 dollars, or for getting the wrong thing when he was trying to do something nice for you. You should have been THINKING it was nice of him to try to find it for you. Not publicy calling him a dumbass or whatever because he got the wrong thing.

never thought as the neowin forums to be so much of a 'public' place.

rather not talk about this anymore. at least w/ you 2 losers.

CONGRATS LASTSAMURAI!! Where did you get it? :happy:

lol in my experience, calling someone "you two losers" is not a good way to end the conversation, now you have just provoked them and made it personal. A mature person might be able to ignore that comment, key word might, lol but chances are as mature as these two bokes seem they are going to make a reply. Totally defeating your goal of not talking about it.

Neowin is very public. Anyone on the internet could read what you wrote possibly for years to come. This is a highly active thread as well. Would you post secret information here? Of course not - because it is a PUBLIC forum.

More with the name calling I see. I'm a loser for calling you on calling your dad a dumb ass.

Just goes to show how spoiled many are in this country. Maybe the draft should be re-instated. Send some of these kids to Iraq & let them see just how lucky they are to have $60 to buy a game. And maybe they can see some kids who don't HAVE a dad anymore.

Fine if you want to avoid the issue we can drop it. Just take in to consideration how you come across and how low it is to call your dad a dumbass over something so trivial in the future.

wtf why are you lamers whining about rob and his life. get your own life, this is damn doom3 thread not a family problems thread. oh ya i just wanted to let you know, i picked up doom3 at bestbuy today, after complaining to the manager for about 30minutes. :)

Will you just shut up?

I asked you to stop.

Be mature and respect a elder member's wishes. If you want to keep on discussing this with me, take it private. This isn't the thread to be doing it in. :rolleyes:

Consider it dropped, but not because you're "an elder" member my teenage friend. Fortunately I can see when an argument is pointless.

Stay on Topic trek234. This is not a family issue thread, it's a doom3 thread. Either Stop posting or just step away from the computer. Seriously.

Very well. I apologize for the OT. I passed it the first time, but it got a little annoying after he did it again. Perhaps I should have ignored it regardless.

Again I apologize to anyone upset about the OT.

Just because you may be in your twenty's and i'm younger than you, doesn't mean i'm less knowlegable. :rolleyes:

If you want to go to a place where you can yell at younger members about their isses w/ family members, search google.

Someone PM me later and remind me to add Trek to my Dumbass list :yes:

Dear mother

Dear father

What is this hell you have put me through

Believer

Deceiver

Day in day out live my life through you

Pushed onto me what?s wrong or right

Hidden from this thing that they call life

Dear mother

Dear father

Every thought I?d think you?d disapprove

Curator

Dictator

Always cencoring my every move

Children are seen but are not heard

Tear out everything inspired

Innocence

Torn from me without your shelter

Barred reality

I?m living blindly

Dear mother

Dear father

Time has frozen still what?s left to be

Hear nothing

Say nothing

Cannot face the fact I think for me

No guarantee,it?s life as is

But damn you for not giving me my chance

Dear mother

Dear father

You?ve clipped my wings before I learnt to fly

Unspoiled

Unspoken

I?ve outgrown that ****ing lullaby

Same thing I?ve always heard from you

Do as I say not as I do

Innocence

Torn from me without your shelter

Barred reality

I?m living blindly

I?m in hell without you

Cannot cope without you two

Shocked at the world that I see

Innocent victim please rescue me

Dear mother

Dear father

Hidden in your world you?ve made for me

I?m seething

I?m bleeding

Ripping wounds in me that never heal

Undying spite I feel for you

Living out this hell you always knew

switching topics, i thoroughly believe that Halo 2 will skunk Doom III... it just looks a lot better in my opinion, key word my opinion. Also in my opinion however, Halo 2 will be the greatest game of all time... following such legends as PONG and PAC-MAN and and and.... ARAKNOID....yes i said ARAKNOID...and i capitalized it too.

    • SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on by Steven Parker I was offered the chance to test out the SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500, and full disclosure, they let me keep it regardless of my findings. Anyway, I jumped at the chance due to my long hours sitting at my desk, mousing around. Apologies for the knife cut across the top of the box; that was my doing, being a bit too heavy-handed with opening up the outer packaging. First up, what's in the box: SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 1x Type-C charging cable User Manual 1-Year Warranty (card) In short, everything you need to get started. According to the official Amazon listing, here are the key features: Full-Hand Air Compression: OS500 wraps your fingers, palm, and wrist with multi-chamber air compression for a complete hand relaxation experience. The extended massage chamber helps cover more of the hand and wrist area than standard palm-only hand massagers Palm Kneading with 6 Modes & 6 Intensities: Built-in palm kneading rollers add a hands-on massage feel, while 6 preset modes and 6 pressure levels let you choose the comfort level that fits your day—from gentle relaxation to a firmer full-hand massage 3 Heat Levels with Cooling Fan: Choose from 104°F, 113°F or 122°F warmth to suit different seasons and comfort preferences. The built-in cooling fan helps reduce stuffiness during heated sessions, keeping your hand feeling fresh and comfortable Easy Visual Display & Smart Timer: The digital image display clearly shows massage area, mode, intensity, heat level, and remaining time at a glance. Select 10, 15, or 20-minute sessions for quick office breaks, evening relaxation, or everyday hand care Rechargeable, Cordless & Comfortable: A 3000mAh battery supports over 90 minutes of full-function use on a full charge, with convenient USB-C charging. The soft inner lining, smooth ABS/PU finish, and premium black-gold design make OS500 ideal for home, office, or gifting With all that out of the way, here are my own findings. I gave it a try on both left and right hands, and as you can maybe see from the above YouTube Short, (sorry for the shaky video), my whole hand fits in, but my wrist barely enters the Hand Massager. I was able to push through a bit more with my fingertips extending out the other end to get a bit of massaging on the start of my wrist. Usage For some reason, there is a strap that is very difficult to fasten to my wrist with one hand. I am not sure what function it has, and it isn't mentioned in the user manual. The only thing I could find was in the product images that claimed "wrist precision". Unlike the Bob and Brad Hand Massager, this device does not massage the wrist anyway, even though a "wrist mode" is mentioned, which must be for smaller hands than I have, as it is mainly intended for the hand and fingers. In addition, for its steeper price, there are no disposable gloves provided in the box, which is a bit of an issue considering the internal cover (which appears to be elasticated nylon) cannot be removed for washing; so you are left with only one choice: always thoroughly wash your hands before using it. I can imagine this thing getting a bit grimy after a period of use, and that is a bit of a shame. With that said, the buttons on the device, from left to right, do the following: Heat button: 3-level heat control at 104°F, 113°F, or 122°F Mode button: Auto mode Circular mode Soothing mode Relax mode Palm and fingers mode Palm and wrist mode Intensity button: from (First-time users) 15Ka, 25Ka, 35Ka, 45Ka, 55Ka, 60Ka (Intensive relief) Knead button: on or off (6 pressure levels) Power button: Long-press to turn on or off Cooling button: turn on or off the cooling fan Also, in the product imagery, it states there are 36 "custom modes," but nowhere is it listed what these modes are. I can only imagine that they mean a combination of all of the above settings in different intensity levels. The device itself seems to rely on a single "kneading" mechanism located at the palm area of the hand, which spins when in use, and the other massage features are mainly utilized through the air sacs, increasing and decreasing at various levels on the hand and fingers. I am not sure it offered too much relief for someone who is typing and operating a mouse for hours at a time; further testing may be required. It does feel nice, though. Finally, you may be wondering how this fits into the scope of a tech website? Well, let me tell you something: sometimes I sit for up to 15 hours working on Neowin, and although I take breaks in between, it takes a toll on my body. I think in the immediate absence of a partner to apply relief, a good massager like this Hand Massager can shed the strains of the day in just a couple of 15-minute bursts. On the official website, this has an MSRP of $99.99, but luckily for our readers, it is selling at $10 off for just $89.99 right now on Amazon. SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 for $89.99 (with $10 off coupon), $99.99 MSRP For me, this gets a thumbs hands(?) down. However, it could be improved by making it so that the protective covering could be removed and thrown into the washing machine, or get yourself some disposable gloves to use with it.
