Anyone know where I can buy computer parts (or gaming computers in that case) in the UK? I tried cyberpower and they are pretty cheap but I heard that they have bad customer service and the computers are bad. I also tried overclockers.co.uk and I might settle there but it's considerably more expensive there. I am trying to stay under £1,500 but I might be able to go a bit over that. Anyone got any good recommendations?

Oh come on. We're trying to talk with sigs here and you rudely interrupt.

soz I'm thinking about starting a youtube channel where I play horror video games with an ECG monitor hooked up to me (you can apparently fashion one out of pennies & a bit of analog wizardry to remove noise, like from radio [yes, you can listen to radio through a person] and that caused by the AC electricity. It would just hook up through your computer's mike jack.)


Also I want far cry 3 and assassins creed 3 and the preorder of bioshock infinite but I don't have $160.

...well I have $160 but I shouldn't spend so much.

...maybe I should start a kickstarter

Let N be some number.

N and n are coprime if there exists no k with N/k an integer and n/k an integer. Let M(N) be the number of integers coprime with N which are less than or equal to N.

This is a plot of (N-M(N))/N, from N=1 to N=2,000:



It looks like you can choose an N so that (N-M(N))/N is arbitrarily close to 1, meaning that you can find some integer that isn't coprime with almost all integers less than it.

My gaming laptop is now fixed and I have it in my possession and it seems to be running quite nicely, just need to ditch the Vista.

It spent 2 years in the wardrobe because the graphics card over heated and damage the motherboard. It also took away 2gb of my RAM, which is now back. If I weren't ill and didn't have a migraine I'd be wooping.

That's disgusting. I've seen worse though. (A woman occupying three chairs in a restaurant eating and expelling gasses. It was not pleasant.)

Today is 12-12-12 and the fact nothing happened was ominous... Until something did happen and my ISP killed my internet (AGAIN!!!) and I had to use my phone. I'm so relieved now that I don't have to worry about what might be about to happen.

It's supposed to be December 21st, 2012. At least, that's all I've heard about that. Nothing will happen on that day anyway, but still...

My internet connection is so weak right now. If there's an apocalypse going on right now it's only attacking my sanity.

I know what I'll be doing on the 21st Dec. Watching the movie 2012 in my friend's awesome home cinema. He says he has a full HD 3D beamer, 11.3 surround sound and popcorn coated in chocolate.

Yeah, he said the film sucks balls. He's only watching it for the visuals and sound effects (he told me he also has butt-kickers installed in the seats. Don't quite know what that is but I have a good guess).
