About cops being tax collectors (through tickets and stuff) in my experience, this is 110% true. The PD where I used to live justified and paid for their existence by dealing out ridiculous traffic tickets. It would be like creating a whole new government agency with the sole purpose of...

People can just get the last 4 of your SS? That doesn't sound correct, every single bank verifies you that way... And yes, I'm aware I leave a record but I doubt amazon got hacked. Maybe one of the smaller trusted retailers. I don't think I have a virus on the macbook... And honestly, I'm not...

Good to know... and I haven't used my CC in a POS purchase in many months now. I guess a data breach is a possibility.

What if the sharks have laser beams attached to their fricken heads?

TeufelWolf-I don't recall using my debit card on any merchants that aren't highly trusted (e.g. amazon or 4sevens), but it's very possible (Sometimes amazon forwards your purchase to someone else, maybe I got a shitty merchant?). I tend to use paypal for shadier stuff, and I never use "gift"...

Ooh, that's new... I'm not very impressed though, especially for the price. You could pick up a brighter and much cooler new/used D10 for the same price with some searching. That said, county comm products always look awesome.

I watched short film on the SPE... Very crazy.

That is the first thing I thought... but then I realized that a week or so before these charges started, I basically had no internet connection, so that would have been unlikely. I searched all my email accounts, spam included, and found nothing from them. I don't recall ever getting a report of...

My bank says the easiest way is to call them first to see if I can get a refund... Of course, I'm going to report them to whomever I can no matter what happens, if they refuse to give me a refund chances are I can get my bank to block any transactions from them by default, not just for myself...

I have the WLC100, I like it a lot. One time I lost the fastening screw and cooper hand tools (weller) sent me some new ones right away. The tips are pretty common (the store down the street from me has some) and there are plenty of options.

So, I went to check on one of my bank accounts for the first time in a while... Much to my surprise, creditreport.com had been charging me $15 a month for two months now and I was less than a dollar away from going to a negative balance (a big-ass charge is incurred if this happens). Funny thing...

That makes me sad... why are there so many laws protecting criminals? However, I think the worst charge that you could get for making it clear to the criminal that you have a gun is illegal brandishing, and even that is a stretch.

@ZDO Good story, I'm glad your friend was able to get away. However, I think that a 1W blue might be a little excessive as that would actually be a lot more likely to blind (rather than stun) anyone it hits, which is bad for you in court and bad for any passers-by that get hit.

Yep. I had those big ~$100 skullcandy around-ears, it cracked once in the middle, I warrantied it, then it cracked again with even more gentle use, and then I gave up. Plus, as you said, it was very uncomfortable and it smashed the edges of my ears. IEMs only for me now.

I was looking at those, the open air speaker is really cool.

I just got some panasonic HJE900s for my birthday... They're the first "good" IEMs I've ever owned, trust me when I say that skullcandy headphones for around the same price are complete crap. What makes these phones awesome is: High quality (obviously, given price and seller) Removable cables...

It's because of a lack of strict moderation here IMO... there are lots of forums that stay as productive as when they started. How do they do it? Ban everyone who acts like a retard or causes drama, and make them STAY banned. Mods here are too friendly. :)

Check the CPFMP... that's the first place you sell lights. ;)

:crackup: Yep, apple won't let us use FLAC but the idea was supposed to be that you could use ALAC or something... :shhh: And I guess if you're using BT phones it doesn't really matter. Apparently if you start to move up to nicer, sharper IEMs or studio phones you actually start hearing the...

I hope you realize that MP3 will destroy the quality you get with FLAC... If I download something in ALAC or AIFF or whatever lossless format it stays that way on my iPod. :)
