Hence the use of the word "filthy"
Well if this is filthy:

Anyone know anything about PC hardware?

I was playing Borderlands 2 on my laptop last night (which may be showing it's age) after an hour on Skyrim, so about 2 hours total at a guess, when it abruptly shut off mid game.

No freeze or crash, just WHAM and it went off.

It felt pretty hot, I rebooted and the disk was showing at 100% on task manager, I shut it down, left it for a bit and re-booted and it was fine.

Not played anything but Hearthstone on it since but I was wondering, is this the "I'm too hot so I am shutting down" fail safe? is the disk usage a factor?

I used to game on it loads and it never happened so I am considering retiring it.

Mine does that nowadays, I'm assuming it's a failsafe but I can't seem to find anything in logs. I've replaced the ram & ssd but as it's a laptop I can't do anything about the graphics processor. It's particularly frustrating as I tend to play turn based stuff on PC and saving every turn gets old quickly.

I wanted the batmobile toy as a kid but never got it. The one where the back came out and turned into the batplane.

Dodge Hemi Dart for me please.

Failing that, I too would love a Countach. LP500S in black please, with the wing and with the minimal bumpers, not the US shit.

The Countach is ugly.

You must be trippin' stormy. That car looks dope!

I won't flood the thread with more car pics but, aside from my waifu car (Nissan GTR), the following cars are certified as "ballin'":-

Disclaimer: I don't do speed/performance number talk so my reasons for liking a car is priamrily because it is sexy as fuck.

Ferrari F430 (Dat baller swag) or Ferrari Testarossa 512 TR (Dat Outrun nostalgia swag). Both in Red.

Lamborghini Gallardo (in yellow)

Those new Chevrolet Corvette Stingrays.

Any sex kitten soundin' Maserati.

I never really got sports cars. I mean you can't drive fast anywhere due to speed limits and they have bad boot room so you can't even use them for the weekly shop.

Remembering the good ol' days, let's take a trip down memory lane and see what BritGAF was like

2 l8 4 me as I'm home after losing contact with everyone I was with. (like first time we've met near where I live. So surreal in a way) I'll remember that for next time. People can't handle the dance.That Heineken hasn't agreed with me. Ales for life. On the bright side random stranger wanted their photo with me. Even if it was down to the hat that's progress.I'll break free one day.

Dat Kentpaul swag.

Place ain't the same without him.
That dude is so self-assured, he's a legend of the forum.
Oh it was one of those times I actually got invited out. :(
Aww diddums.

(Invites are implicit mane!)
Now with more Ninj, Mikeside, shorty underscore symdwizzy and TashBrookski.
I was -NinjaBoiX-, purely because I screwed up my first application. I thought it looked poncey so stump got it changed for me.

My Nexus 7 arrived this morning. It's a great tablet, although I really need a case for it (thank you Amazon Prime trial). Going to test it with a film soon and see the quality.

I think Wes is the mod most likely to be in the correct timezone to ask about such a thing.

I was actually going to ask about this myself, so Steve saved me asking :p. I feel that mine's too formal so I'll just go for a minor change.
 
Mike you are rubbish at keeping the OP updated.

When did we say we were doing the camping weekend guys? Was it the 2nd May bank holiday weekend?

Yup that's the one. Not sure if we should advertise it super widely though, I think it should just be the folks in this thread tbh.
 
Possibly after the con on the Sunday night, but I'm not promising anything. By the time it finishes then having to make my way all the way down, I dunno...,
