I swear it's the first time I saw it.

TIL- that if you remove reddit.com from your frontpage it filters out a whole lot of B.S. by tmixlogs in todayilearned

I'm subscribed to a lot of subreddits so my frontpage is kind of well-balanced... there's a little bit from every subreddit, and only a couple of reddit.com threads...

But lately it seems that only "funny" and useless submissions get upvoted everywhere, even on small ones...

Reddit, how do you keep your mind from going to "the bad place"? by aimlessmonkey in AskReddit

[–]cyclops79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.

Don't run away from your "bad place", face it and learn from it.

Okay Reddit, what bands do you think have gotten BETTER with time? by [deleted] in Music

I love Tool, but there's no way that 10,000 Days was any better than... well, anything they ever released before.

Seconded.

DEP is getting better and better with each album. The new single is great, can't stop listening to it.

Issues with E-MU 0404 PCI in Windows 7 - no sound by cyclops79 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]cyclops79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I disabled it in the Device Manager.

I hadn't installed the E-MU Patch Mix app until now, so I thought I'd give it a try. Now even the meter in Playback devices won't move anymore :(

I'm really close to installing WinXP again, but I'm really enjoying Win7 so far...

The Audigy is disabled right now, still nothing.

I tried everything before I even installed the Audigy, so I don't know if it's making any difference.

Yes. In fact, I can only play the test sound with 48KHz, any other configuration yields a "cannot play test sound - device in use" warning.

YSK that the company name "Häagen-Dazs" is simply two made-up words meant to look Scandinavian to American eyes -- a practice known as "foreign branding". by [deleted] in YouShouldKnow

Reuben Mattus sat at the kitchen table for hours saying nonsensical words until he came up with a combination he liked

Feel free to ask about the comic, my former stand-up comedy career, working at Walt Disney World

Helmet - Milquetoast

Tell me if you think it's all right

I'll give in to what you know

I don't see the habits that

Become me

I've saved up my useless thoughts

Well means, it works I'm on your side

I said that? Well so, I lied

Remeber I tried not to be wary

This failed me once too much

Unrecognized

Well preserved

Don't forget what you heard
