I probably shouldn't try and overclock my iMac right, especially considering I don't know what I'm doing? It's just I can see the options in the CCC and i'm tempted

Have Super Mario 3DS and Mario Kart 3DS been confirmed for a 2011 release in Europe? I ask because Australia's price drop PR made no mention of the titles coming by the end of the year, unlike Japan and the US, and with our shitty schedule I wouldn't be surprised if one slipped through to next year.
I know Kid Icarus is 2012 for PAL, but as long as Europe gets the other two in 2011 I'm happy.

I watched the finale for the third season of Mad Men last night - a show I was slow to warm to when it was first broadcast here on free-to-air but was advised to give a second chance. My initial assessment of the show was that it was 'lesser than the sum of it's parts' - fantastic production design; an iconic setting; overflowing with snappy dialogue; and a complement of characters who were all well-realised in the shows early stages. However I felt the show lacked any clear direction and was merely a collection of well-shot scenes, albeit incoherent.
Season one didn't reveal what kind of show it was until the last few episodes and I was won over before starting on season two, which I again felt wasn't building towards anything in particular but simply gave plenty of real estate for the characters to stretch out in.
The third season was easily the most sure-footed arc yet. There were plenty of standout moments that anchored the show along the way and the addition (and removal) of certain characters was well-suited to the direction of the show and felt natural (I normally see casting changes as a result of production constraints - not necessarily chosen by the show's writers). The englishman Price offered a fresh perspective on the Sterling Cooper operation and his character proved likeable in the long run. There's also 'that scene' with the John Deere lawnmower which was enough to put audiences on edge and and remind them the show could take an abrupt change in tack at any moment.
All of that of course culminated in the show's finest hour in the season finale. For the first time in the show's entire run, it felt like everything that had come before had been building up to that final moment. It's a bit of a gamble with how the outcomes of the finale will bear on the fourth season (which I will watch after I've mentally digested Season 3 in a month or so) but I enjoyed a far more active transition in the show's direction when all the major social changes typical of the 60's were covered in a much more passive fashion in the background. Small touches like minor technological additions around the office have proven as key reminders of the changes seen during the era but I look forward to seeing how a much more direct impact on the show's core characters will come to bear in the fourth season.
Plus, Remo, Gaynor and Breckon have tweeted about how much they loved season four, which is always encouraging.
Anyone else like the comedic stylings of Louis CK? I'm thinking of downloading his TV show.

What program can I use to control fan speeds? I'm trying SMC fan control but it isn't working for some reason.
Sutton Dagger said:
As far as I know you should be able to control fan speeds in CCC.
I've been back on Team Green since January so I can't remember how you Reds do it.
Also, I was calling it "overclocking" because back in my day you had to do it all through the BIOS or flashing programs!

Back in my day you needed to re-solder your motherboard, connect circuits with graphite pencils or physically modify the CPU pins. Overclocking was hardcore shit that was likely to destroy your entire computer.
While we're getting all back in my day, does anyone remember the forks you used to use to replace CPUs in the days before ZIF sockets? I worked at a place ages ago that had a whole bunch of them, but I can't find a picture of one on the internet to go and get all nostalgic about.

So I got a 5-6 FPS boost in Crysis by raising from 680/800 to 800/1000, which is pretty considerable for me. I really need to control the fan speeds across all the fans though as the components are nice and close in an iMac. Why won't SMC fan control work

SAMSUNG is pressing ahead with its plan to launch its Galaxy 10.1 tablet locally despite a Federal Court order prohibiting the sale of a variant in Australia.
The Korean electronics giant said Apple filed a complaint in the courts over a product it didn't intend on selling in Australia.
Samsung this afternoon said the version of the Galaxy Tab subject to the court agreement was not the version the Korean supplier intended placing on the Australian market.
LOL.

The census has nothing to do with building "places of worship" life that compared to available land.
There used to be lots of farms and acreage lots around here and lots of churches/ temples/ mosques of various persuasions are around here because that's were large lots were once relatively cheap.

An invitation to be in an encyclopaedia of the 1000 Greatest Minds of the Twentieth Century.
A great honour.
My name came up at a meeting of their expert advisory board - which comprises some 14,000 people from a range of professions.
I had to fill in a biographical questionnaire and cough up for a bound copy of the book (3 volumes, very fine), and I would join the ranks of the cerebral élite.
