I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'd take a demonoid invite if you have one, Tep.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Cool. I'll let all y'all know when it's back up and running.

All is well that ends in pizza.

It's kind of odd that such a site didn't have backups of their essential code.

I have two invites to tvtorrents.com. They're very particular about the ul/dl ratio. I have to give you some of my credits to get started, and if you don't play nicely, they can cancel your account.

Edit to get the URL right.

Edit #2: That didn't come out very enthusiastic. I'm happy to share dl credits with anyone who wants an account, and the invitations rebuild over time, so if you want one, just let me know. They only do TV, and they're best for current and recently past shows. No movies, games, books, music, or software.

Is my laptop supposed to be losing power when I am using it plugged in?

No, sj, it's not. Are you sure it's plugged in everywhere? I ask because mine had a two part cord, and sometimes the middle wiggles loose a bit.

It's plugged in, and it charges fine when it is off, but when it's on it starts to lose power even though it is still plugged in.

A quick search tells me that it could be a faulty AC adapter; or it could be that the pin holding the plug into the laptop has loosened from the motherboard. A couple of people describe this kind of fix, but this one actually has a picture: [link]

Thanks, Deena! I'll look at that when I am no longer posting from the crackberry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Steph, I'd love an invite as well.

With Mininova gone, my primary site shifts to Isohunt, which is also good for comics, but it's not as easy to use and navigate. The search function isn't great. Going directly to EZTV is good too.
