Let's just wait until people actually get interested and we have 10 folks showing up. Right now, it's just the two or three of us pulling all the weight.

More hangouts coming soon. 🙂 I can't wait.

Matthew Castillo5 said:I'll probably end up joining you guys today too. See ya!

It was great catching up with you after that trip to Scranton. 🙂

@ Master - you still alive? 😁

I don't know about you guys, but I'm really starting to dig Vettel. 🙂

* how does Seroquel cause dreams like that? 😲 For me, Seroquel means non-stop long dreams—loaded with detail, really vivid and beautiful. Especially now that I'm on anticonvulsants, they're incredible.🎉

With Seroquel, I had dreams so vivid they gave me chills when I woke up. I could even control myself inside the dream, just like in real life. And that feeling when you wake up, where you aren't quite sure what's real and what was just a dream anymore.

And don't even get me started on the panic attacks from Seroquel. They were so intense they'd make your skin crawl; you honestly think you're going to die right then and there. It was like waking up right in the middle of a Freddy Krueger movie.

David Vaughn75 said:Look, if you're taking them in small doses—like under 100mg—they work fine as sedatives, but once you bump up the dosage, they basically act as antipsychotics. Which, let's be real, is pretty much what they actually are anyway.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Just hanging out with the competition over at Anheuser-Busch. 😬

So... we’re trying to get as many people together as possible for coffee this Sunday, March 15th. Let's meet up right in front of the horse statue at Union Station around 3:00 PM. Hope to see you there! 🙂

Man, I’ve had some wild dreams from mixing Seroquel and Prazosin.

But Prazosin is basically just a heavy-duty sedative, so why are you taking it so much?

I've got an MSI R7 260 in one rig, and it's running like a dream. Then I've got an XFX R7950 Ghost edition in my other setup, which is also a total beast. Honestly, both of them work great.

I'll be arriving this Thursday, and I'm still playing it by ear for Saturday depending on how my bank account looks.

Anyone up for coffee soon? 🙂 I can't make it tomorrow, but I'd love to swing by one day next week just to hang out.

Lately, I’ve been thinking I could really use a coffee break just to sit and chat for a few hours.

I'm down for: beer, billiards, or a movie.
Looking for: whatever you guys are up to.

About me: 21, tall, and apparently a decent enough guy.
Location: Washington, D.C.

I don't know what kind of nonsense this is, but Google is coming up totally empty on this hard drive. Honestly, I think I’m just gonna call it quits on this one. There’s another Jay Blue available, so let's see if that goes any better.

I used Corsair DDR2 back in the day—zero issues. Now I've moved on to DDR3 and everything is running perfectly. My brother actually uses Corsair Vengeance DDR3 too, and he’s having no trouble at all. One buddy of mine is getting kicked to the curb by his motherboard, though, so he's dealing with some memory headaches. He’s picking up a new board this week, so we're hoping those problems finally disappear. Honestly, I stuck with them because of that 5-year warranty and the fact that my old DDR2 was rock solid. I've always had great luck with Corsair.

Larry Ortiz5 said:In that case, you might want to grab this one—since it’s vacuum-sealed, it should be brand new. You can always double-check the health using CrystalDiskInfo just to be absolutely sure it hasn't been powered on before.

Awesome. I just sent them a message, so let's see what they say.

I spotted this guy too: http://www.ebay.com/usr/kakakher. He’s got about 4 or 5 hard drives still under warranty.

I've got this old Hitachi Deskstar that’s been grinding away for about 8 years now, and I think it's finally time to let it retire. I'm a little nervous that it might kick the bucket any day, so I'm hunting for a solid replacement. Right now, my budget is $100, which is basically the absolute limit of what I can swing. It doesn't need to be some top-of-the-line, lightning-fast beast with massive storage—I just really care about reliability. I spotted a few Toshiba drives around 320GB for a decent price, so I wanted to see what you guys recommend. I wouldn't mind picking something up on a marketplace too, provided it's from NASA and still carries a warranty.

I'm looking at stores like Best Buy, Micro Center, or Newegg. 🙂

I’ve got a setup pretty similar to the one graniteharbor85 posted. I’d probably just go with the Corsair Vengeance RAM since it comes with a 5-year warranty, even if $10 it ends up costing a bit more than the Kingston Fury.

Enjoy yourselves today, no matter who shows up.

I’ll make my appearance once the weather clears up and this snow finally melts.
