Different voice actors or a dub by a different company (Ocean/Funimation)? I remember Goku starting to sound completely different somewhere in the middle of the Frieza Saga.
Oh lord I don't know what to do... I always have the money for it but there was an emergency this past week and I had to pay over 300 dollars unexpectedly. Is there no way to convince the bank to let me wait just a bit longer if I guarantee them it won't happen again? Right now I have $290 in my bank and the car payment is $270 but I need money for food and gas.
Call them up and ask if it's a problem? There's probably a grace period past the due date, especially if you've never been late before. The worst that's likely to happen is that there might be a late fee; it probably won't even show up as a late payment on your credit history.
The only potential problem is if you're in one of those deals with super-low initial interest that goes up later. Sometimes those have clauses about late payments bumping the interest up. (At least, this is the case with zero-interest deals on TVs and such--not sure about cars.)

Also, a human can survive for up to two months without food. Just sayin'.

I don't remember how car payments are, but my mortgage has a 15 day grace period. They don't tell you unless you ask.

Why is it when a really old thread is bumped for no particular reason, it's usually a junior member who bumped it?
Because they can't make their own thread?

That seems so obvious now. Thanks! Still though, a lot of the time it's for threads that are really topical, like a news story, and they just comment on it like it was brand new.
Could be junior members delving into post histories after being granted the ability to search and forgetting it's an old thread.
Dunno, it is pretty weird.
It's from the Sonic the Hedgehog comic.

Why don't laptop makers put the guts of the computer up top with the screen, so that the part that you put in your lap never gets hot?
weight distribution is partly the answer here.
I assume it would make it top heavy and the screen itself takes up a lot of room.

I guess, but as thin and light as some laptops are these days, and the fact that tablets like the Transformer exist, makes me think it could be doable.

My assumption is that it is because the abbreviation of 'should have' i.e. 'should've', sounds so much like 'should of'; given how sloppily the average person enunciates words these days.
Fortunately I was brought up by a Grammer School boy so I know more betterer [sic]

I remember way back in the early days of the generation, there was a trailer for a racing game (Not sure if GT or Forza)
And the song in the background was like "Rise up and *insert word here being screamed*" the camera panned out all over the various tracks and that "Rise up and *insert word being screamed*" kept playing over and over.
What was that trailer? Which song? Anyone got any links? Or even know what I'm talking about

Some dialects think of interchanging the two as the norm, which is different to standard English I guess.
The same vowel is used in each (a schwa), so they sound exactly the same.
What's a good online hosting site for files? I need to upload some portfolio material in the range of 15 - 500MB, preferably without the site taking over the copyrights of the files etc (like how pictures of myself belong to facebook once uploaded). I need to upload some games I've made and I don't want to end up in a sticky situation over rights.

I had the same problem before. Disable any YouTube extensions that you may have (if you use Chrome) and refresh the page.
This won't go away. No buttons show up or anything. What do I do?

Dropbox is great. dropcanvas is alright too.
If you want to keep them around for a long time you might want to rent some server space or set up one yourself.
Thanks, I'll try my dropbox account then
From what I've heard, almost no one actually downloads and installs portfolio games during job hunting season so I don't think my own server is needed (though that might be nice if I want my own website later on). I'll think about it!archnemesis

No, you're probably better off showing your games through pictures.
I do that too, with youtube trailers. I made a carbonmade profile today. A playable link gives credibility too though.
My girlfriend dropped her phone and cracked the glass on the front. The screen still works fine though (including touch). It's a galaxy s3. She bought it 2 weeks ago from verizon. She took it to verizon and they said they don't do repairs, and recommended a repair place in town. She took it to the repair place and they said it'd cost $380 to fix since the whole screen, including the display, is one piece. She only paid like $100 for the phone.
What are her options? Is verizon just bullshitting her?

I don't think it's worth the repair if it costs that much. The Front Panel Assembly does seem to cost around $250 so you're pretty screwed. Next time she should get a case/shield for it.

When DmC was announced for consoles the publisher claimed it had the feel of 60 FPS even though it was only 30 FPS. With the PC version it's possible to get a far higher framerate. If there was such a thing as perceived framerate, it would probably be like 250 FPS.

I don't know if it's the bestest, but I like my illustrated version.

Yes but only if they are enunciated without the slight pause between the two words that wouldn't occur with the one word. Not that anyone would ever say 'should of' instead of 'should have' so it is academic
.Seems like. Though a hardcover of this one seems impossible to get. Only option I see is Amazon.com, but as an international buyer I'd be paying out the ass. Any ideas?

Where are you from?
You can get the original for free as a digital download in something like the iBook store, I know you said it's a gift.
A nice easy version is Sun Tzu's Art of War for the 21st Century by Stanley Bronstein. Condensed down completely. I'm not sure what the best version is if you're looking for a more complete version.
Netherlands.

From the looks of it, Thomas Cleary's edition that archnemesis linked is one of the most complete editions out there, if not the most complete, and would make for a good gift. I've e-mailed a bookstore somewhere far, far away for a shipping quote. Here's hoping.
Since your from the Netherlands have you checked Bol.com?
The Art Of War: An Illustrated Edition (Thomas F. Cleary). (second hand)
The Illustrated Art of War (Samuel B. Griffith). (new)

The only illustrated hardcover version I've come across there is his latest (2009) edition. What worries me about that one is that it's abridged. Or is this rather a good thing?
EDIT: 224 pages in the 2009 edition, 223 in the 1998 edition. Guess there's no problem there after all. I'll go for this one, methinks. Thank you, archnemesis, Ninja Dom and FillerB!

Can someone post that gif of the group of young black men staring into the camera, then one comes across the screen from outside the picture with his hands to the side of his face and a "mind blown" expression?
Are you thinking of a gif from the Supa Hot Fire rap battle video?
I didn't know this thread existed otherwise I wouldn't have made a stupid thread. Please help me in this:
GAF I need help remembering the name of a music video
Or it might have been sketch comedy.
Basically it was this radio or boombox that was being treated like a celebrity for being such a great musical genius or something along those lines. I think it might have been destroyed and rebuilt in the end.
It was from the mid 90s.
Thanks.

lol yes. Thanks, just gooimaged it.
In the opera-episode it was stated that he primarily wanted it like that for privacy. Besides would you let your 9-year old son play around with theoretical nuclear physics?
Realistically no, but if he had the mind of a brilliant 50 year old genius and had the common sense and knowledge of handling such dangerous materials, I would let him.
I still wouldn't. It's too dangerous.
I can't find the science questions and answers thread, but:
How long do metabolic enzymes typically last in the body? Once an enzyme is produced, is it "used up" after it works it's magic one time, or does it function continually, causing the same reaction over and over?
If the answers to these questions differ drastically depending on the enzyme, then how about 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase, or 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase?
