Scraggles, I play rock and heavier stuff. I'm thinking about replacing the bridge pickup with a Seymour Duncan Hotrail, I gotta see how it will work out stock first. I love the shape of the tele.

I think they sound beautiful clean. I play heavy stuff too, but I stick to ESP. Have an MH-300, KH-1, and MH-100. Gotta love the EMG's.

3. Thermaltake Shark Case.

4. 1GB of Corasir XMS Memory.

5. Miscellaneous Cash.

And most importantly, the whole family was together.

my family and i have officially caved, and therefore, the final list is as follows:

1. Teeth (as previously mentioned)

2. Blue Turquise ring w/ matching earrings (my birthstone, very stylish indeed)

3. The Trump Board Game (I'm a business student)

4. 120 dollars

5. Various clothing items (scraves, toques, tights)

6. Greeting Card book (I'm a girl, and therefore by majority default, into giving cards?)

7. Matching fleece to go under my new burton snowboarding shell

someone above mentioned " most importantly, the whole family was together "

I second that. It's funny, the older I get, the more I value my family. I'm moving away after next Christmas, and I'm going to miss them terribly.

OH! I almost forgot.. the whole family got

1 42inch plasma, 1 DVD recorder for the 42 inch plasma, and Canada's version of the TIVO.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow

      By +Random Stranger · Posted

      I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • Nearly half of American adults now use AI, but concerns are also growing

      By tradesetter · Posted

      The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By [deXter] · Posted

      I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
