    Was playing HL2DM. The batteries in my mouse decided it was time to hiss and bubble and leak acid. Got acid burns on my thumbs. I may need to go to the hospital.

    Sounds like those laptops where the batteries explode, I'm always cautious about batteries.

    Also, just got done setting up the new CS:S surf server.

    I opened my mouse up this morning to see the damage. The plastic contained the spill pretty well, but the inside is corroded to all hell.

    Yesterday, one of my friends surprised me by asking if I wanted a Tribes: Ascend beta key. I vaguely remember the older Tribes games but I searched up a few videos of the new Tribes. It looked fun so I downloaded the beta and installed it.

    After installing the beta, I decided to try out a few rounds of TDM. It was very fast paced and the skiing feature was pretty unique while also being fun. I suck at the game right now but I hope to get better at it before it's fully released.

    Woah, got a 27 inch monitor (1920x1080 ofc)
    This thing is fucking huge compared to my old 19" 1280x1024 tft :eek:

    Also, DVI is alot better than HDMI apparently :confused:
    With the HDMI cable black looked like horrible backlight bleeding :confused:

    The difference was amazing when i opened my black rectangle in paint with the DVI cable plugged in :D

    Yeah, I never went to ATI. I read about some guy who bought a top tier ATI card that cost like $300 at the time, and the fan on it broke. The card itself fried.

    Better not go with a GTX460 either, it tends to overheat a lot, but just not enough for your computer to shutdown (100˚C exactly).

    I want to get a GTX 580 soon.. Or maybe waiting for the new GTX 600 series.
    So in the meantime I use an old GTS 250 :D
