Looking good, mate (Y) I can't pull those sort of hats off; I've tried before :p

Thanks :p I've only recently started wearing them, never thought I'd suit them, but I've always got it on now lol.

Haha, well it's good you didn't listen to your assumptions and tried them out then :p

;) Yup glad I did :p I have a black one too lol. I can't really wear it in the summer though :/ Will just have to make sure my hair is always straight lol

Ahh, I don't have a problem with the straightness of my hair; it's always been lovely and straight ;) much to the jealousy of all my friends :p Last time I tried one of those hats was in Topman a couple years ago, so now I've matured a little bit, I might see if they suit me yet :D

I can imagine the jealousy :p I hate having to straighten my hair, I wish I had naturally straight hair lol. I tried one on a while ago too and I didn't think it looked all too good, but tried again a few months ago and I've been wearing them ever since :D

I never used to wear those hats, infact no hat suited me until those. Started last year and near enough wear either my grey or black one every damn day. Wearing the black one now :rofl:

Oh, and pics:

It becomes habit, just to put it on before going anywhere :p Every time I go out I put it on :)

So during CES, I met up with a couple of female friends that happened to come to Vegas on the same weekend. On Saturday night we went to the JET nightclub at the Mirage and hung out in a VIP area.

So true, and now I can just leave my hair curly for college and catch a lay in until 6am instead of 5am on weekdays!

That's pretty much the main reason I started to wear them all the time, to hide the curly hair. We can't all be blessed with naturally straight hair :p

My sister annoyed me with her complaints about my 'naturally straight' hair for most of this last decade before I finally escaped to uni :p I can imagine it would get annoying though, having to straighten it all the time.

Ooh, insight and good feedback about those hats from another person. I'm definitely going to try them again then :happy: I've always liked the style; just didn't think it suited me :p

It does get annoying, having to get up early JUST to do my hair :/

See you should get one and take a picture for us all :p

Awwh, I bet the results of straightening it are worth the early mornings though? :p

Haha, that would be a good idea :D but there's a reason the picture I've posted in this thread is heavily edited - I never used to like the idea of posting much personal information on-line or talking to people I don't know, haha :D Being a moderator (loads of users hating you :p) doesn't help those concerns either :)

Aha, well I got one from topman which are purposely too big for your head and have a "tail" (Like a beanie but smaller).. Suited me much better than a tight fitting hat.

Awwh, I bet the results of straightening it are worth the early mornings though? :p

Yeah, wouldn't be able to survive otherwise :p Got to get up every morning to do it :)

That's understandable :) You should still take a picture though :p

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft offered a look at the upcoming Halo: Combat Evolved remake at the Xbox Games Showcase today. The Halo Studios-developed title is not only getting a fully remade campaign, but also new content in the form of a fresh story arc featuring Sgt. Johnson. Fans don't have to wait long, either, as Halo: Campaign Evolved is releasing next month. The new content joining the original campaign consists of three new missions that have the name "Operation: METEORITE" attached to the full project. Aside from ground-based combat, space missions are also included here. These prequel missions will take players to events set before the original campaign, where the Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson duo team up for a clandestine UNSC operation aboard a Covenant research vessel. The studio says that the story for these missions was written in collaboration with award-winning sci-fi author Troy Denning. "Operation: METEORITE gives players a chance to expand their experience with new locations, new enemy variants, more weapons from across the Halo series, and new ways to play within the Halo sandbox, all while getting to spend more time with beloved characters and witness a new event that adds to the legacy of their heroic history," adds Halo Studios. Today's new trailer showed off the game in action, including the new missions. Catch it below. Halo Campaign Evolved is coming out on July 28, 2026. It will be available across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 price tag. A digital premium edition will also be available for $69.99, offering five days of early access, extra in-game skins, and a digital art collection. A $199.99 physical Collector's Edition is also incoming, bringing a Master Chief statue, a Cortana chip, a Steelbook case, and more.
    • To give context to everybody, I bought about 2 sets of RAM, ddr4, 3200, 64 gb, 2 years ago. It costed me 150 usd for each set. If you buy RAM now you only incentivate companies to sell you expensive stuff, as Nvidia did.
    • KillerPDF 1.4.2 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.4.2 changelog: What's new PDF form filling. Interactive PDF forms now render their fields (text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons) as live controls. Fill them in directly and save — field values are written back into the PDF. PDF outline (bookmark) navigation. A new OUTLINES tab in the sidebar displays the document's bookmark tree. Click any entry to jump to that page. The sidebar auto-fits its width to the longest entry on open and can be dragged wider; switching back to PAGES snaps to the pages-mode width. Fixed Page rotation no longer reverts after saving. Rotations applied via the sidebar context menu now persist correctly through the save pipeline. Copied text words were out of order on PDFs where glyphs are stored in non-reading order (Issue #66). Text extraction now sorts words by position and uses a dynamic line-grouping threshold so both drag-select and Select All produce correctly ordered output. PDFs with malformed or non-standard XRef tables now open in read-only mode instead of showing "Invalid entry in XRef table" and failing entirely.
