    SOmeone told me that Vocaloid is amazing software. Seems to be a text to speech thing intended specifically for japanese singing, my god its awful. Doesnt do a bad job in japanese, or at least it doesnt sound too robotlike, I dont speak japanese. But english, its worse than Microsoft sam.

    Well, not quite true but for the most part all of the yes.

    Trim was removed from the galaxy s2 because it was causing phones to brick. But the removal of trim is starting to effect the speeds of some galaxy s2's pretty badly. But this is just because of a Samsung screw up, you should never have this issue with an actual SSD. Those things have gotten quite solid recently in terms of reliability, unless you run a data center that is always reading and writing the drives you should not realistically expect one to fail. But if you were running a data center you would have full redundancy so it wouldn't matter.

    Until last month my speeds were 0.04/0.00. I could literally search something and take a nap while it loaded.

    Anyone ever screw up giving directions so bad that you accidentally sent someone to Chillicothe, Ohio instead of your home town?

    Once I typed the right city name, but it was another city in another country.

    i have horrible vision

    i'm near sighted as well

    but if i take my glasses off right now, my keyboard will be slightly blurry, and my entire monitor will be pure blurry, although if i really look at it i can kind of make out what stuff says

    yay for horrible vision (not)

    I had good eyes last time I had them checked. Like 3 years ago.
    I never have problems reading stuff or anything, so I'm good for now I guess.
    But
    Butbutbut
    My right eye is noticeably worse than my left eye, and has gotten a bit worse over the past year or so.

    I feel like the only person I know with almost perfect vision clarity. I still have eye floaters and visual noise but nothing is blurry unless I'm focusing manually.

    The only eye test I've ever had was the mandatory one for being able to drive, where you have to be able to read a car's licence plate from at least 20 metres away. I read a plate from so far away that the instructor had to get closer to make sure i was right, so I guess I'm doing fine sight wise.

    EDIT: Should probably clarify that I don't have glasses.

    I don't know what vision I have, but when I take my glasses off, everything is blurry and I can't focus on anything for shit.

    My vision is just fine, best in my immediate family. Funny thing being that no one else in my immediate family spends much time around computers and both my dad and sister are meant to wear glasses.

    Vocaloid is amazing, but only in japanese. The english version uses the same basic recordings as the japanese one, so you end up with this terrible jumble of stuff that hardly sounds like english. There's a reason it's $90 cheaper than the japanese version. If I were to use it, I would get the japanese version.

    After returning home from a month in the US, I fucked up and pulled out onto the wrong side of the road. :(

    I'm currently trying to get a custom bootlogo on my 4s. It's not working too well.

    EDIT: Almost 2 hours after I started.
