Dear John,

I have come to visit you for the first time in quite a while, and I must say that your board is dreadfully boring.
Now I know you may see this as a compliment, but I assure you that it is not. This was once a source of pride for me - conversations were held on many topics and the superiority of Pepsi-Cola was never in question. It seems that through the years you have all forgotten the statement of this board: Every conversation is uninteresting.
This does not mean that only excessively droll conversation is allowed. You may talk about anything, especially topics that may not be suited for other boards.

Why am I telling you this, John?
I fear the trends over that past year have created a circlejerk in shades of gray; every man stroking unenthusiastically and not a single climax reached. The board approaches an insipid singularity and the userbase stagnates and shrinks.

What do I feel I can do to halt this monotony?
Remove this monochrome veil.
Turn off the elevator's wail.
Take back your own names.
Move from completely uninteresting to mild interest.

Welcome to /eh/

Where everything is just... eh...

/eh/ is not for crying, /rnb/ is for crying.

The music is from the Tenpenny Tower lobby in Fallout 3.

I think this song you're hearing now is the only worth-while thing that came out of this game.

Well, it paved the way for New Vegas, which I very much enjoyed. I do hope Fallout 4 will be a little more grim like 3, though.

I recently torrented a film.
Normally they cut off just at the end of the footage unless theirs an extra scene.
But this one went on for the length of everything afterwards and then for another 5 or so minutes and i felt very pleased with that.
It meant i could bask in the blackness of my media player instead of returning to my self enforced 'upbeat' colourful desktop wallpaper.
I hope this speaks to someone.

May I inquire which audio file those waveforms belong to?

John Smith 13/05/01(Wed)00:23 No. 40271

When I was little, we didn't have a VCR. On rare occasions such as birthdays we'd sometimes rent one along with a movie. I'm glad we can just torrent films nowadays.

I also like sitting out the entire end credits.

I'm not entirely sure John sorry. Just a r&b about how that kind of waveform in a song shouldn't be acceptable.

an an LXDE man myself, not a fan of the whole control panel administration thing, and to be honest i find it simpler to work with at times

and i cant say ive had the same issue as you, ive only ever used the default graphics drivers, though i should probably look into installing the open source AMD drivers for muh games at some point

Using Nouveau driver instead of the Nvidia blob helped the "flash crashing with xinerama" -problem. All the programs still claim RANDR is not loaded, including xrandr -utility, even though Xorg.0.log claims it was loaded.

This implies the problem lies is somewhere else, but at least it does not manifest with this particular configuration, which is enough for now.

>>40430

Yes, well. Almost seems like you assumed I would not have tweaked xorg.conf by hand at all, which I did.

I just asked if he did too, because KDE's screen control panel is not particularly informative. In fact, I'm not sure if it supports multi-mode at all; just clone and span, hence what I really tried to ask was if he tried means beyond the graphical utility.

I shaved with a new brand of razor today. The blade was was rather grippy, while the previous brand would glide over the skin. It was bad enough that I smooshed some greasy skin moisturizer into the shaving cream. Still grippy, but usable.

The resulting shave was the smoothest I've had in a years. I'm not sure if it was the grippy blade cutting extra close or just that I was paying a lot more attention, or some combination of the two. It was a pleasant surprise.

parking lots should be made of concrete instead of asphalt

it would make parking slightly more pleasurable and prevent global warming

1) Watershed runoff= not good for riparian habitats
2) The dirt has got to come from somewhere. Taking valuable topsoil and turning into parking lots doesn't sound very sustainable to me.

No dirt would need to be moved, just remove the asphalt and pack the dirt underneath. And what ,may I ask, is different when it comes to runoff whether it's asphalt or dirt? Just curious.

That idea has been quantified, studied and done well, John.

However, like most sensible modern architectural advances, it is being done in Asia and Europe, while the US remains stuck in the 1950s/1970s, floundering as usual in scientific illiteracy, stubbornness, laziness, and the good ol Catch 22 standoff between outdated regulations and outdated architecture/construction. As in an increasing number of key respects, the US is stuck in the mud. But your idea is good, John.

Let me share a particularly uninteresting yet thought-provoking story;

There was this father who was loved by his daughter, but the father himself was a criminal. Fearing about the future that his status as a criminal would bring about to his daughter, he decided to leave her daughter. But, no matter how he tried, the daughter always managed to find her father.

Does this show that love for someone's parent could also act as a GPS?

If you mean, ones love for the other drives them to track the other down by playing detective, then sure. If you mean, there's a physical property to human emotions which extends across some entire physical feld for those emotions to operate in, in order to "connect" people who feel enotions about other people, then you are imagining an awful lot of shit.

The universe is not constructed around the human animal, and our emotional well being is of zero importance beyond our own skulls and the actions those simple, well-understood chemical reactions lead us to perform.

What do we all have in common in juxtaposition to other chan user bases? What draws us together?

While I can identify with the theme of this site, I can already see differences from the get go: the moderators hurl cuss words left right and centre as if it's "cool" or something.

John Smith 13/05/12(Sun)14:03 No. 40396

John, it would seem the particular array of boards on this chan is ever so slightly different from others. That seems the most probable explanation, as to why we keep coming back to this place.

I just came here from 4chan and I have to say I like it a lot better so far. Although I have only been to this board and /class/ so these could very well be the only good boards on here and I'm just inexperienced.

Hello John,

Recently, I have had contemplation that gave way to quite a few arguments. This contemplation is between of which is the better, twisty ties or bread tags for preserving one's bread contained in a plastic bag? That's why I come to you Mr.Smith for your opinion on this millenium-long battle. Take into account all factors including personal ones that you could think of, such as practicality, ease of use, etc. Have a splendid day John.

I prefer bread tags because I find that the tie's often lose their covering and I find the raw wire unsightly.

Bread tags also double as guitar plectrums.

I remember a friend of mine using bread tags as makeshift plectrums for his acoustic guitar.
