aeriyn Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 yus. i'm bored. :sleep: so I figgered I'd make an off topic post... in the off topic forums. Wait, wouldn't that make my post actually not off topic? Which in turn, since it's in the off topic forums... wouldn't that make it off topic? :wacky: Confusing I tell ye! anyhow. My PC is very lonely in a storage room, waiting for me to find a new apartment, but people are really slow in responding. it's like, they're all leisurely looking for a roommate... orz. Somewhat annoying, especially at my grandmother's house. She hates computers, won't let me bring mine in. So I'm very bored. I miss Final Fantasy XI. I miss Nika! But I digress... I don't miss SonicStage. Curse that infernal program. Without a PC, real-time recording has been my only real option unless I want to be chained to my PCDP which is old and skips if I touch it (sounds nice though, Sony D-33, and was cheapy). But I've discovered much more SP mode love, in the fact that the difference between SP and LP2 is huge. Before, I didn't have many SP discs because I had no reliable source. at granny's house, I hijacked her DVD player and ran the coaxial out through a format converter (radio shack, 15USD, such a bargain) and recorded discs. and I was like, whoa. the N505 really is horrible for titling tracks though. especially that any N505 older than five minutes has that annoying propensity for >> to pretend to be << every two seconds. but it doesn't record bad. recording sure eats batteries though. I forgot how bad it was; with my R900 I always used the ac adapter... but I was always recording LP2 with that thing. amazing it took me so long to "hear" the light. I still want that pink iPod mini, but it's shifting from a "omgineeditrightnow" desire to a "maybe if I have the money." sound quality on my DS8 is lovely for me with SP discs. battery life is superb, and I don't mind carrying discs around, especially if they are all pretty discs like the TDKs I have. (Don't really care for Sony Color Collection, but the biancas are acceptible.) as much as I somewhat feared it, having my portable music totally divorced from my PC actually is handy, and I like it. waiting an hour for a CD to record to MD is not bad when you can wander off and read a book or play a computer game. so... sorry skyth. :grin: iPod's gonna wait, if not disappear from my want list. i just get to the point where I'm not well off enough, and I wonder, do I really need this? not really. what I have is wonderfully sufficient, and totally separate from my PC, which is nice when Tenshi-chan is sitting all alone in a cold, dark storage room. *cry* I wish I had some alcohol. orsomeshit. bear with me, chris, skyth. I feel depressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyther Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 *sulk* She misses FFXI, but not me. When you get back, we're gonna get you so hooked on Gunbound you'll delete FFXI from your comp. :evil: That's okay if you're not getting an iPod, make sure you complete your PIMETA though. Want me to send you anything? The PC1 hasn't been turned on for a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 So is there a resolution in sight, Cor? I'd hate to think that your stuck in this state of transition..I can tell from your tone in this post that you've been through some mental olympics already. :sleep: I agree about Gunbound; you wouldn't believe how bad Sky and I are obsessed, although he is far worse off than I. I'm not so sure how much I'll be into it now that I'm knee deep in the Jump to Lightspeed beta. It's so fun! :happy: I created a starship yesterday with parts, tuned the parts, flew the ship and destroyed other ships. After all that, I landed on Tatooine and got a drink in the Mos Eisley cantina. It's rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want me to send you anything? The PC1 hasn't been turned on for a month. I miss both you two crazy nuts. I miss sitting in on your little arguments/debates. :laugh: PiMeta's also in storage, the parts of it that I had (the pcb with the resistors soldered on, the opamps still in anti-static foam, the pot and the housing) and my dad's multimeter is nowhere to be found, so I can't continue working on it, especially without a PC to look up instructions or to ask you questions. But I promise I'll finish it as soon as I can financially. Well, I have about 720USD right now... I just need a roommate! No one I left messages for called me or anything. It's getting very frustrating! As for wanting anything... mostly I just want an apartment! Living with my PC-hating granny sucks! :sleep: I can't get my own place; can't afford it. Need to room with someone, and finding one suitable is a little hard, especially when people don't respond in a timely manner. I'd like a decent MD deck if I could find one inexpensively. The discs recorded with the N505 sound okay, but not nearly as nice as they would with a deck, I'm sure. Titling on this little tiny thing is a pain in the rear, also. Especially since the skip forward button likes to pretend to be skip backward at the most inopportune times. CD deck too, need that as well. and the dt440's. oi. lotta money talking here, and I'm trying to save up to move to in with Nika next year. *hugs skyth and chris* Hope you guys are doing well. I'm okay, just really bored! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
