A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

Respect is like Christmas presents, Star. If you expect to receive without giving, you won't be doing either before long. So step one is to give Fleetfoot respect. Try apologizing for manhandling her that time, and explain the situation calmly. If she doesn't believe you, let it go, and let your future actions speak for themselves to change her mind instead of trying to force her to believe you right away.
If you didn't overact so much, people wouldn't give you a hard time about it.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayTechnology is being unkind to me today.
I finally got my PS 2 hooked up, since I now have my own TV for the first time in two years, and decided I was finally gonna finish the last dungeon and get the Golden Ending of Persona 4... only to realize that I couldn't find the memory card. And unless it happens to turn up in the like, two boxes I haven't completely unpacked yet...
So I went online to see about ordering a new one, and while there I figured I'd also look at RAM since I had a stick go on the fritz and had to remove it recently. Upon doing some digging to make sure I'd get the right sort, I found out that my computer is built for DDR 2 RAM(As opposed to DDR 3, which is now standard), which is now twice as expensive as DDR 3 RAM.
Uuuuuuurgh...

Sadly, memory prices have gone up a lot in the last couple years.

And yeah it'd be less effort to either build a new tower or get a decent laptop and swap the hard drive with solid state.
The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!Eh... but I don't really have much money to spare...
If I knew for sure I just needed to swap out the motherboard to one that supported DDR 3 then that's one thing. But as it stands I dunno if I'd have to upgrade my graphics card, heatsink, cpu... could be upwards of 500 dollars. As it stands, 8GB of DDR 2 ram is only 200 dollars.
I mean, the computer is working fine as is, but still.

Those the nerds for that girls show?

We are a freakshow, quirky as can be.
We'll be the first thread topping this animation scene.
We'll slow posting when, the pony dries up.

Hmmmm. You could go with a budget build with an AMD AM 1/Kabini setup, those are about as powerful as Core series processors and cheaper/more power efficient.

My internet history isn't separated by web browser. It's all in one place in the computer.
http://h0useb0und.tumblr.com/@Kegi: I recently refurbished an old Toshiba Satellite that had surprisingly modern dual-band wireless in it. Must have been a final-generation Core II Duo lappy. BTW I got that Satellite secondhand for S$359, really cheap considering it had a Radeon mobility GPU and a full 4GB of RAM.

A kind of robe, or cloth that increased her agility/speed, basically turning her into a super martial artist. Possibly giving her the power to literally become water and flow through/around stuff?
Why? Be Water, my friend. That, and she will fuck up someone's day barehanded in the show

http://h0useb0und.tumblr.com/@Kegi: Oh, that's cool I like that. What I have now is based off English riding/ fox hunting clothes and a rapier that freezes things on contact. I feel like enhanced swiftness would be more suited to whoever is given wind. (Either Pinkie or Rainbow.)
@dark: It was cute! :) It'd be fun to put them to music.
"I feel like I'm on a raft and surrounding me is an ocean of dumb."- Mr. SarkAlso, @Ace: I appreciate the thought and advice, but I'm simply not really in the market for another computer. My idea of "Budget" is 'keep the current one going until I know I have enough to spare for a new one'.
And while RAM is gonna be a bit pricier, sure, it's not like I'm gonna be replacing it all that often. My computer is powerful enough in other respects that it's still going strong at full graphics on modern games and it's... five years old, give or take? So in truth, I'm not too worried. A full on replacement certainly isn't going to be any easier than sticking in some new, slightly pricier RAM. It's not like I was planning on changing the mounts up.

Since the current casing is slowly rusting out and the mobo and DVD drive are slowly dying I'm already prepared. Also I'd say 6-7 years old now for your Desktop, since the 5th-generation Core i-series processors will be released in time for Christmas.
