<0> how?
<0> you'll get **** all over the optical lens
<0> the lifespan of everything you own is going to go down
<1> hmmmm, i never knew that, very intresting.....
<0> but it definitely will effect optical drives
<1> i dont smoke heavily right beside pc case, room is well ventilated
<1> be good if there were a simple way to check lens
<0> smoking can absolutely **** up your optical drives, I know that for a fact
<1> can u use cd lens cleaning kits for dvd writers?
<0> I wouldn't, you'd have to crack it open and hand clean it somehow with like 100% alc or some ****
<0> I used to smoke and I know that caused the demise of a couple of my drives
<1> what about the discs you get with the tiny brushes on them....
<0> I would up clean the heads on one that would clear it up for awhile
<1> how much you smoke and (no offence intended) did you use only tobacco or like cannibus etc?
<1> did you smoke*
<0> just cigarettes
<0> I don't smoke anymore
<0> I quit years ago
<1> same here :)
<1> well done, seriously man
<0> probably like 5 years ago
<1> i wanna stop sometime, sooner rather thanlater, its gonna be VERY tough
<0> ore longer I can't even remember now
<1> how old you mate?
<0> well I can now buy alot more **** with the left over money heh
<0> in my 30's
<1> im early twentys bud, been smokin since i was 14 going on 15. Ive not gone 1 single day without a cig since then - this im not proud of, makes me gutted if i think about it enough :s
<0> well I started in my teens
<0> and quit when I was probably 32 or so
<1> did you go a single day without a cig atall until then?
<0> and yeah it wasn't easy
<0> not really
<0> once like 10 days when I was in a hospital
<0> but not by choice heh
<0> smokes are just insane ****ing expensive
<0> and you sound like you're in the UK
<1> lmao ye man, if there was ever a day, it would have been when i was in hospital with phenomia and even then id bet my life i still smoked every day - mad
<1> yes m8, from scotland
<0> where I know smokes are even more expensive
<1> ahh well thats the thing.....
<0> I lived in the UK for a bit, smoked ****ing rollies because packs were so expensive
<1> i smoke rolly-ups
<1> lololol
<0> nice bag of drum
<0> if you're only in your 20's I'd quit now man, it's worth it
<1> ye man, and the (some would say good) bad thing is, not only they cheap, im hooked on the kinof draw u get and way prefer then to cigs, so saving money , being one of the main motivators to quit, int an issue lol
<2> what i'd like to know is
<2> why the hell did you two start to smoke
<1> ye dude, when you were in your early 20's, did u ever get paranois or have thaughts about how your gettin older? is there actually much of a differance how u feel at say 23 as oppsoed to 28\29\30+?
<0> because when you're 14-15 you're a brainless twit
<0> your parents smoked or whatever
<1> well id say 99.9% of kids start smokin to be cool\part of the croud
<0> plus it wasn't illegal when I started to get smokes
<2> thankfully, i did not cave in to peer pressure
<0> and there were still ads all over
<0> we're talking early 80's and ****
<1> na not atall, i would have never even thought twice about trying it, until my mum and dad split up. Never thought about it at the time but him leaving defo opened the doors like
<0> almost everyone starts when they're kids
<0> noone over 21 would be stupid enough to pick up the habit, I would hope
<1> i just walked out of cl*** and totally out the blue decided i was away to try smoking, just like that, hadnt even thought about it incl***, then i tried it, got that kind of pleasant headrush (my precious chemicals being violated for the first time lol) then i was hooked - ive got an addictive personality
<1> ye m8, that wuld be silly lol, most folks i know are 12+_
<1> average 14
<1> jees its intresting speakin about this, you realise allot
<2> im trying to look in from an average person
<1> indeed....
<2> and sorry to say to myself... well sorry or lucky... goes both ways, I was no average person
<1> nobody is average
<2> there is an average, from a superficial view
<2> for me, even the superficial wasn't
<1> average is a perception - what goes on inside peoples heads is unique - YES thats it mate - from a superficial view....
<2> don't see it as me degrading the average =P
<1> not atall
<2> cause if you wanted my real definition of the average, it's far worse. The term im using atm is average american teenager
<1> man i occasionally use the term superficial, what is your definition of the word?
<2> shallow
<1> not just american man, its the same all over
<2> idiot.
<2> incomprehension
<1> ye totally mate - SHALLOW
<2> stuff like that
<2> it's a negative word for me
<0> brainless
<0> at 14 or so you're just not thinking
<1> yes m8, i agreee with u there, take it your from the us
<1> of the right things anyway lol
<1> man ive been in a few DEEP discussions about the likes of this, after-death, non-entitys of these arseholes all over, if thees one thinh that is needed to survive, i reckon its HUMOUR !!
<1> true laughter is the best healer of all
<1> TRUE laughter
<0> I always thought it was computer hardware *looking around*
<1> lmfao
<1> i was thinkin the same lololol
<1> a question about my pioneer 108 has stemmed into a full blown philisophical discussion lol
<1> its my fault lol
<0> probably still be using my pioneer for awhile to come
<1> heretic> im new to irc, i know the basic functions, but i dont know where to start, there must be LOADS of very bust chatrooms for all subjects, where does one go to to fond such directories?
<1> busy*
<0> one types /list and then waits an hour
<1> lol, tried that, gave up, most of them were only coming up with 2-5 users
<1> im using chatzilla (mozilla plugin)
<0> how old is youir drive?
<0> wonder what the warranty on those things are
<1> good point, i got mine....lets see.....
<2> speaking of which
<2> are plextor even worth the money?
<0> depends
<1> it was just after christmas going into the new year of 2005, so we talkin about a year and a half
<0> I thiunk the last one worth the money was the 716
<1> plextor? if its the utility you speak of, i downloaded the trial
<1> on the hardware - pioneers got the best reviews at the time
<0> yeah that's why I picked it up, it had good reviews
<0> can go to cdfreaks and read up
<1> aye, everywhere i read, not one magazine\site etc had n e thin bad to say, it topped the nec drive in all the reviews
<1> my "teac" second hand 4x drive was WAY more reliable lol
<0> pioneers been making nice ones for awhile, the slot loading one was a rage for awhile
<0> *shrug* I haven't had a single prob with mine though
<1> used the datawrite yellow discs for soooooo long without a SINGLE coaster
<1> the pioneer was fine at first...
<0> well it's also been like 3 years! heh
<0> how much **** have you burnt? these things do wear out
<1> ...started becoming noticeably unreliable with the prinable ritec discs - although i think this is more of a timeline rather tan the discs themslevbes
<1> quite allot
<1> errrrr, let me think...
<1> anything from 300-500 possibly more, this a rough estimate ofcourse
<0> ritecs are supposed to be good though
<0> ahh I'd guess I've gone through more than that on mine
<1> yes that was what annoying me
<0> well atleast 500 I'd say
<1> ritecs where ment to be the bees-knees
<1> how often u in here heretic?
<2> good effing god
<2> "oth the AMD and Intel processors were clocked at 2.6GHz. The AMD machine scored 138 frames per second while the Intel Core 3 Duo machine returned a whopping 177 frames per second."
<2> btw, intel core 3 duo is a typo.
<2> that's supposed to be 2.
<2> *both the amd blah blah
<1> brb, need some munchies
<3> I want one XD
<1> whats your apinion(s) on the amd64 3700+ (san diego core)? thats what ive got, not used it to its full potential yet
<3> Probably beat this Penetium D at stock... even though I've overclocked the hell out this.
<2> erm
<3> But.. I probably need a new motherboard for a Conroe processor :(
<2> a Pentium D at 4ghz ****s vs an A64 4000+...
<2> well
<2> at most things
<2> but it sure is a bargain!
<2> errm
<1> pentium d= dual core?
<2> A64 4200+ i mean
<1> not when i bought it lol
<1> was just over when i got it 7 months ago
<2> Pentium D = the new celeron
