The Inquirer: All Nvidia G84s AND G86s are bad

That might explain why my display died and my logic board being replaced fixed the problem...

Doctor Who uses Mac keyboards 50,000 years in the future

This is what happens when you don't tell the Art Department about certain close-ups.

I think somebody's been driiiiiinking.

Paramount silencing portions of Indiana Jones in theaters?

May 28, 2008 12:50pm

Sounds like they didn't want to take the blame for their system crapping out.

Though I don't specifically remember any tracking dots.

If a theater dropped sound during a movie, I'd be getting refund, i'll tell you that much.

New Guitar Hero DS trailer is epic failure

Oh god, we've gone so far into ironic cheesballism that we've circled back around into suck.

>>Technically, he's a Geek Squad Installer. (Thus the GS logo on his uniform)

Nah, unless that's what the Home Theater techs are called now.

Most of the install guys wear BBY T-shirts. The only uniform similar to that is Geek Squad Ops, which is a black polo shirt.

Or it could be a promotion day, there's something written on the back of the shirt. The nametag he's wearing is definitely not Geek Squad (since it's not a big pewter badge or and ID card on a zipline).

That guy's a Car Audio install tech, not Geek Squad. He's not wearing the most honorable agent attire.


Apple Geniuses to get even more douchey

April 29, 2008 2:16pm

I was almost an apple genius, but I got a real job instead (thank the maker!).

I already had my fill of being a computer douche when I worked at Geek Squad.

Best Buy apparently spent a lot of money doing research to discover that people with computer problems don't like smug assholes, and they spent a lot time retraining Geek Squad to act as 'hero support'. Apparently, people respond better if they get help on the sly so that they, the computorially inepy, can take credit for the fix.

Who knew?

Best Buy Giving $50 HD DVD Rebate, Too

If they've got your address on file, they should be getting the gift cards out to you soon.

I got mine forwarded from my old apartment today!

Combination scooter and camping cooler

Doesn't hold a candle to the Flying Barstool Croozer. I mean, that thing doesn't even have a grill.

(Worthless shill disclosure: I work for Honeyshed.)

Amusing firing range targets

We've got those hanging up here at the office.

My favorite one is the pregnant woman. They don't have a separate halo for the tiny fetus.

No friends yet.
