    I was actually thinking about that the other day. If I have never watched FMA before and was interested in doing so, should I watch the original or Brotherhood?

    Hit the Mac equivalent of CTRL F5 so that it forces a complete reload of the page and doesn't use the cache. Or restart the computer. It looks like the CSS is all fucked up. Did you do something that would fuck up the CSS.

    how would i fuck up the CSS

    And oh, extensions. It was working fine yesterday and this morning, and I haven't changed anything with my add-ons, so i doubt it has to do with those.

    Wikipedia is also looking fine in Safari

    Are any other websites behaving like this.

    Did you figure out the Mac equivalent of CTRL F5.

    Original is its own storyline after a point. The new series is basically the manga.

    I love upgrading my computer even though I don't have the money to do it. My 8800GT and C2D 3.0GHz is still working just fine. I didn't turn away from PC gaming even when I kept blue screening because my RAM was incompatible with my motherboard. I waited months before I tried to fix that problem.

    The cost is my biggest issue. To get a graphics card, I'm spending just as much as an entire brand new console. I still spend most of my time on my PC, but this current rig continues to run great and I just don't want to spend more money on it.

    I did get a strong core, though, so chances are, I just need to spend $200 or so on a shiny new video card for anything modern.

    Like how? I haven't watched it for the past few episodes (got lazy and hooked on new shows recently), but did they change something?

    Maybe a couple of times, reformat a couple hard drives, reinstall some operating systems.

    I feel like they blow way too fast through plots. It seemed like the life alchemist using his own daughter episode was kind of mechanistic whereas in the old one it was super sad. I'm not very far into the new one though so this opinion may change.

    Oh, uh, yeah, they're intentionally going super-fast so they can get to the new stuff. That's why in order to appreciate the series you need to watch both.

    If you want a good one then get a business notebook.

    If you can't tell the difference between a good notebook and a bad notebook then get a consumer notebook with graphic cards and 3 hours of battery life.

    SHUT UP IT WAS A SUGGESTION and it was rubbing alcohol!

    God damnit I was this close to figuring out what was wrong with it. In fact I probably know what's wrong with it but you GAVE UP ON ME.

    My dad picked up this small 12" HP computer that's pretty nice. Won't really run games, and I don't know about the battery life, but it seemed pretty spiffy.

    Alternatively, there's some upcoming notebook that automatically switches between onboard graphics chips and separate video cards on the fly that sound pretty badass. *shrug*

    Well there are several notebooks that can do that already and it really is great to be able to switch between the two since the battery life savings is significant.

    No, like the computer itself switches it. You don't flip a switch and restart the computer, it does it actively on the fly. I was under the impression that it's a new system.

    If you wanna play games, your best bet is to get one with a non-onboard graphics card, like ATI or nVidia. Battery life will suffer and it'll weigh a bit more, but it should do the trick. Beyond that, whatever system you like.

    I've had excellent experience with Dell before *shrug*
