Medical question.
When playing football tonight I came out of challenge worse off. I rolled my ankle, I had to walk about 3 minutes from the pitch and then do about 5 minutes driving until I reached home. My ankle has went up like a balloon. A few hours later and I can't put any weight on it. I didn't want wait in the A&E for a number of hour so have opted to wait until tomorrow and visit the minor injuries clinic.
Anyway, if it was broken, would I have been able to walk on and drive on it? I'm assuming it couldn't be that bad if I was able to.

Blu ray question:
Probably a dumb one, but I got my Spartacus blu ray from netflix and it the picture keeps fucking up like this every 10-20 seconds. I assume it's the disc itself but I've been having other issues and want to make sure it's not my blu ray drive or something. Does this look like a faulty disc?

You'll need more than a month to watch all the episodes thus far. It is a lot of television, I think it'll be too exhausting to gorge on 54 or whatever episodes Netflix has in 30 days.
I think I did season 2 to up to 4 and it took a quite bit more than a month, its also not as breakneck as say a GoT, there are a lot of slower sections. But if you are sooo inclined ... you probably can, especially if you want to avoid the spoilers for the final 8. It's just really unhealthy, so just make sure you exercise daily and eat healthily =)
Also I recommend staying off any place on the internet if you want to avoid spoilers. Seriously, this one is going to go out with a huge bang.
If you tried to make a new one and it got taken down, contact Facebook themselves. Why was it reported fake? Do you know who?
My own question:
I have a Sony VAIO laptop with Intel Core i5 "HD Graphics". There's an option in the graphics settings for refresh rate where the max is 60 hz. I change it to that but everytime I restart my computer it goes back to 40 hz. I tried editing the registry but that didn't help. Any ideas?
Is being Agnostic more scientifically sound/driven than being an Atheist?
Being Agnostic you admit to the fact that you don't have all the answers and that you can't currently prove that there is or isn't a higher power. Ergo, if we somehow managed to prove scientifically without a doubt (I have no idea how one would prove magic though...) that there is a higher power then we as Agnostics would accept it.
Atheists believe that there is no higher power (though this does not exclude superior beings).

Quote it?
You probably have auto-subscribe on which subscribes you to every topic you post in.
I was talking about that. If it isn't that, then I frankly don't what caused it.
Well thanks for trying to help out.
Guess I'll keep deleting subscriptions every now and then like I always do :/

Anyone ever have a smart-key for their car that kept chewing threw batteries? I've had my '09 Altima for about 9-10 months and have replaced the key battery at least four times. The dealership is not helpful and they are good batteries, not cheap junk ordered off Amazon.

It seems that your browser has skipped, or on the page has broken, a hidden comment. These are put in by web developers to help them, and anyone else working with the code, in understanding what certain parts do or why they are coded a specific way which might not seem apparent at first as a bit of code is a small part of a larger system (especially on a site like Amazon)

May someone link me to a good (confirmed from experience) PC compatible wired 360 controller?
Um, you mean besides the normal Microsoft produced wired 360 controller that works great on PC?

On a resume, does it look bad to put just one year for a job's dates of employment? I got a job last year that ended the same year, so I'm not sure whether to list the dates of employment in my work history as "2012-2012" or just "2012." The first one looks weird, but the format would be consistent with the other jobs that all span multiple years in the "year-year" format.

Well, they're called stupid questions for a reason.
I wasn't even aware the official 360 wired controllers worked on PC. Question answered though, I'll pick one up.A good alternative for this would be to use 'Season Year - Season Year' or 'Month Year - Month Year' for all your listings. If I had to choose between your two choices though I would just list 2012, even if it is inconsistent with your formatting.

I was about to replace my old mercury thermostat with a cooler controller,
but I ran into this problem:
How the hell do I wire this? =/
Colors don't match.
Is the blue supposed to be matched with the yellow on the controller?
What about the other 2 cables.....
And to top it off they are not even the same thickness.... I have a bad feeling about this.

Mine would always pop out because I dropped them all the time and I would just pop them back in (it's a bit of a struggle). I'm not sure what type of frame you have, but if they are like the wires I have then you probably have to adjust the screws or something if they don't already fit.
The frame is bent beyond being adjusted. You can adjust the frame, but then over time it bends back to its irregular shape. I'm trying to find replacement frames without having to get new lenses.

Orthodontist GAF, I wore braces for four years and have been on Invasalign retainers for about two years. Well, I lost my top retainer and the gap in my front teeth started coming back. I fear it'll spread to the point where my new retainer, when I go back in for a new one, won't fit without braces again. To countervail this, I put the small rubber bands that go on braces around my front teeth to retain them and pull them back. So far, they've gone back to their original position... But I fear this will possibly damage my teeth. Is it dangerous to do this until I go get my new retainer?

is there a user named LaserBuddha and one named Buddha Beam?
Because you asked this question, you will be split into Spring-Buddha and Buddha-Loaded.

That's how it is when you have a large forum.
Yeah, but none of those match up like "LaserBuddha" and "Buddha Beam"

Question about blu-ray players and audio setup. So I am considering getting a real blu-ray player because I am sick of the bullcrap that I have to put up with playing blu-rays on my computer and the shitty blu-ray playing software that came with it.
I was considering this one:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sony+-+...ayer/7830129.p?id=1218861011781&skuId=7830129
My issue is, with my current setup the way it is, I think I'd only be able to get the audio to play through my ultra shitty computer monitor speakers, which is no good. The way my audio is set up is I have two speakers and an old subwoofer, and I connect the subwoofer to the laptop via the red/white (RCA?) connecter on the sub to the headphone jack in my laptop. I can't take the cable I have coming out of the subwoofer and plug it into the Digital Out Coaxial jack in the bluray player, can I? If not do I have any easy/cheap options?
