Only getting 92% where I live, so it will get dimmer but not dark. But I'm not taking off work to drive 3 hours to see 100%. I've seen a couple solar eclipses before. Pretty excited for my daughter though, she's in Rochester NY where it will be total. Apparently they're expecting about 250k people, gonna be a big party.

It will be a total eclipse where I live (Montreal). It's supposed to be as dark as night at 2:37 PM this afternoon. I lived the 1972 eclipse, but I was kind of young to fully appreciate it.

    @realtimesave, It definitely did take a while for the PS4 to be fully hacked, much like the PS Vita.

    Amazon fire sticks switching to a custom linuxOs instead of Android, sucks for 3rd party apks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, is the red ring of death still common in phat xbox 360s?

    @BigOnYa, And Linux, regardless of its distro, is still easy to install 3rd-party modifications.

    Yes, phats are just a good heater for the winter months

    @Xdqwerty, Yes, its only relatively common on early models.

    @SylverReZ, then the chance of potentially me wanting to have a phat xbox 360 is -1%
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If you have one, then chances are is that it needs a reballing of the chips.
