Need a low latency wireless headphone
I know, wireless headphones suck. But I really need a pair because I am staying in a dorm and want to play my electric guitar. I have a few decent cans but the big issue is the wire. It gets in the way of the guitar, gets tangled up with the guitar cord, etc. It's fustrating as heck so I would...- pne

mac vs pc?
I had been planning on a new pc for a few months already. Basically I was going to do what I've always done, read a bunch of reviews on the latest and greatest hardware, buy the stuff one price bracket under, and piece together my own pc that would inevitably be built on the kitchen table. I...- pne

repairing the er6i (under the knife)
Awhile back my er6i cut out in one channel. Originally this was caused by a frayed wire in the 1/8 plug, and I had already soldered on a new one. This time it was due to a bad connection in the earphone itself and required disassembly of the earpiece. I wear these IEM's on the subway as well as...- pne

has anyone sold a car before?
I'm trying to sell a car privately, and I'm just wondering how this works. The buyer said he would show up with cash tommorow to pick the car up. I have the title/registration ready to transfer, but what about insurance? Do I have to call in and cancel that before the title is transfered? Reason...- pne

Who should pick up the tab on a date?
this is a much better topic than "should women ask men out" isn't it? Discuss. Personally I would never date a girl that expects me to pay for every single date. I've got way too many hobbies and money pits already, and sadly, I think my money would be better spent on them rather than some of...- pne

did you know?
that an apple has more energy than a cup of coffee? I don't remember where I heard this from but it pisses me off everytime I read/hear it. The reason a cup of coffee wakes you up is because it has a stimulant in it, not because of the "energy" or calorie content. It's like telling...- pne

who is actually using dialup?
Ok, so we've all seen threads with titles like 56k Warning. Dialup beware. I'm just curious as who actually still uses dialup these days? I switched to highspeed about 7-8 years ago, and I don't know of a single one of my friends who is still using a 56k modem. If you're still using the old...- pne

need travel/roadside assistance advice
So in a few days I'll be driving into the USA from Canada. For peace of mind I'd like to have some form of roadside assistance, basically a number that I can call if I'm stranded out in the middle of a highway and need a towtruck. Is there such a service that spans both Canada and the US? Like...- pne

school me on learning piano
So I purchased a korg sp 200 digital piano, along with a mixer to splice it into my home stereo system. I spent an hour with my grado's on the casio, the korg, and some higher end keyboards and although the rolands sounded much nicer I could not justify doubling my budget of $700 for one. A...- pne

cracking your neck?
I've been told that doing this is bad for your neck, but it seems like most people who get a stiff neck get it from stress or fatigue. Today I was working in the garage and somehow turning a wrench the wrong way tweaked something in my shoulder and my neck is stiff as hell. I've tried stretches...- pne

keyboard for an absolute beginner?
I was at a friends house last weekend and he had a really sweet basement recording studio setup. We started listening to some music and jamming along. Normally I pick up the guitar, but I had a few beers and decided to try my hand on his keyboard. It was a whole lot of fun, I had zero experience...- pne

who knows anything about vans?
Me and my friend are planning a road trip this summer, and we decided it would make a lot of sense to buy a van instead of drive one of our cars down there. What we're looking for is something cheap that is roomy enough for us to sleep in if need be. Our budget is around 5k which really limits...- pne
