Clapton: The Autobiography

Both for $12 total with shipping.

Quite similar to what my build will be, just with a mini ITX case and motherboard, and a GPU .

So far (we'll see how long that lasts, though) the on-board graphics (Intel HD4000 at 1920x1080) is doing pretty well. Granted the most I've "taxed" it with is Portal, but...

Looking good TB. Now post pictures

When my first batch of parts showed up I took pictures after each step. After waiting two weeks for the rest, I said screw it and didn't take any of the motherboard, etc. That and my cable management skills leave something to be desired are non-existent. I'll likely update my thread in the Computer section.

suffer an infraction.

Good luck with that.

Great, now I have an image in my head of T-12 ripping his keyboard keys out in a blind rage after having to deal with Herp McDerp Jr. in some pointless thread.

Should be the next award title presented in the Annual Awards.

Mmmm...Firehouse Subs.

A Firehouse Subs just opened across the street from the building I work in. Tried two of their subs this week and it is pretty good stuff.

Just knabbed this Cobalt Scorpion tactical knife from Walmart for around $9. It's a $15 anywhere else but it was on sale. They had it in red and blue. I prefer red but the blue was a nicer shade for the background (red was dark, almost brown).

3.25", spring assisted blade, fine for what I need. Needed a replacement for my old POS one, couldn't sharpen it down anymore, it was dull, and the blades took forever to get open. Cheap replacement and it looks cool. Lets see how it performs. Reviews are pretty favorable, and one interesting thing about it is that it has a real scorpion encrusted in the steel casing on the handle. From Asia. Neat.

Think I might start collecting these like my buddy does. Always was fascinated with some of his.

If anyone interested in seeing, the new item, arrived yesterday, forgot to share.

The 3 Pokemon Tins "Fall 2011 Evolved Battle Action Tins" - I ordered all 3 of them - Emboar, Serperior, and Samurott, I mainly wanted the tins and the action figure, and any cards I don't have in my collection. My areas a bit of a mess, I have not finished reorganizing. Loose change, food containers, and a even a thumb thack loose.

Picked up a DFGT today at a garage sale for $5.
The thing is virtually new, just blew the dust off it and it looks like it's only been used a handful of times.

Now to work out if it's possible to mount and adapt the wheel to my G25 (for the extra controls on the wheel) so I can still use the H-Shifter and clutch.
If it's not possible my son can have it.

Cheers Shaun.

Had this pumpin' whilst cleaning the car today. A lot less wubby-wub-screechy-screech dubstep on it then previous ones. 👍

[SPhilli911]

Ooooh, thanks very much.

+1 for that shirt link. Awesome stuff! Just bought some.

Only size left besides 3XL was medium. I hope I can cram in this.

Perfect to go on my daily commuter STI

 

[Dooblewasur]

$1/ea.
I love the thrift store.

 

[Small_Fryz]

So I bought a G27...

I know right??

Imagine someone belonging to a site about car games buying a racing wheel.

Im just THAT cool.

Needed a good pair of headphones.

How did the plan with the DFGT go? Did you son just score a cool gift .

Great choice!! I have that same half-coiled model, took my listening experience to a whole new level from entry-level Sony's.

How did the plan with the DFGT go? Did you son just score a cool gift .

Haven't had the chance to see if it can be done yet. He's already used it a couple of times on his computer, so yeah it's his now.
He would be shattered if I took it back.

Cheers Shaun.

 

[Small_Fryz]

Can't believe you scored that for $5 👍

 

[Shaun]

Yeah tbh I think it was a mistake on granmas behalf. It had a sticker with $5 on it but I get the feeling the owner wasn't asked what it was worth, or if it wasn't wanted for that matter.

Cheers Shaun.

Just scored this watch off eBay.

It's a Raketa Perpetual Calendar Soviet Air Force watch, circa 1990. I've been looking for a Raketa for a little while now and I've put bids in on occasion for a few watches, but when this popped up on eBay I knew I had to add it to my collection. It's coming from Kiev so I don't expect it to be here for a little bit, but I'm really looking forward to it. I love old Soviet stuff.

It looks like it's an Sukhoi Su-33 on the dial, although I'm not real familiar with Soviet planes.

 

[Guardian]

That is such a beautiful watch - I'm such a big fan of those.

 

[DustDriver]

I ordered myself a Epson EH-TW5910

It's probably a bit overkill for where I'm going to use it, but you just have to buy something rediculous once in a while.

Jackpot is at $33/€25 million so I got myself a Lotto ticket. Need a new family car and I have my eye on the Mercedes GL AMG 63.
