nice rant, It always seems to me as soon as they start HC the downward slide of their looks/trampiness is pretty much exponential. Although I will admit to a thrill at finding a hot woman I thought only did solo stuff having done a few harder scenes. I do prefer sites stick to what they are good at, not sure why everyone tries to do everything these days. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha!

mbaya, If you know what video card you have, search for the driver to it online. The MS driver search function doesn't always find the best driver, for example on my computer MS thinks a generic VGA driver is fine when I ask it to find a driver, however it is not fine. If you don't know the make/model of your video card, you can probably look it up from wherever you bought the computer (Dell service tag, Amazon, etc). Do you have another computer you can test the videos on? Maybe copy a few to a jump drive and test it there if you can. Does the computer play videos from an external drive or jump drive which were not effected by the virus? If he did a full reformat/reinstall of the boot drive, then I would suspect all of the codecs, etc. would be gone, unless he took an image of the drive and reinstalled from that (which would be stupid in my opinion). I still suspect it is the video card. If your device manager shows anything like a "Generic MS" driver, or a driver I would try to find the real one.

I know I haven't been around in a while (was out of town for a month and checking PU from a coffee shop just seemed inappropriate), then had a crap load of work when I got back. Regardless, I agree with Marcus, and I think the MyPorn mockups look pretty good. Not that I dislike the current PU site design, but I don't think change is bad. It might entice more people to be involved in the community, which is always nice. I don't really mind losing any points or status or whatever I have here, that has never really mattered much to me either way. I enjoy the community and don't see why the same community can't exist on a new site. I do agree with TheSquirrel and hope that the new site will better highlight poor/unethical business practices. I was unaware of this newfangled trick-upselling sites are doing - do they even notify you that you are paying for something? Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

Hey mbaya, The tech reformatted your drive, but left the videos intact? Did he back everything up and reload it after formatting, I assume he didn't make an image - or was it on a different drive he didn't do anything to? If he did give you a fresh install of Windows, I would try checking/updating your video card driver. I think it is unlikely to be a codec issue if you can't play wmv files. WMP is notoriously sketchy with some mp4 files, but I wouldn't think it would ever have a problem with wmv. I had an issue with my old XP computer once when it would crash every time I loaded an HD video, and it was just because the driver somehow rolled back to a generic Microshaft one.

I would imagine China probably has an easier time with this since the pretty much control their intra-country-net, which probably isn't the same situation as in the UK where corporations and other entities probably have a lot more involvement. If the goal is to avoid children seeing porn, I don't think it is a bad idea in principle, I'm not really a fan of having such an opt-in list, just for the pure fact that it could be potentially used to shame people. The greater concern is all the important information they block on accident. Perhaps they will do a better job of it, but I still remember all the stupid filters on library computers that prevented pretty much any website with a bad word, what that site says something about vaginas, it must be blocked! Would be kind of funny if every OB/GYN in the UK had to sign up. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman.

Just heard about this on my 2-day old NPR podcast today, I try to stay current (but have been falling behind)! Assuming this goes through, will any of the brits here sign up? And I guess more importantly, would PU be one of the blocked sites? If it does go through, I would bet the teenage pregnancy rate goes through the roof (due to even hornier teens and accidentally blocked sex-ed sites).

I think it is mostly just redirected self-loathing, Drooler. Makes them feel better about all the immoral crap they are doing to redirect it on some other nonsense. The thing that frustrates me most about these folks is the cherry picking they do with respect to religion, ignore some of the more important moral aspects of the bible (or whichever 'good' book they care for) such as caring for the needy, sick, and poor, and focus on single sentences or phrases that make their point. I don't mind religion in a general sense, but I can't stand hypocrites. I do find it funny that so many pastors watch porn though, although Pastors.com is likely not a statistically sound polling organization. Wonder if any of them are here right now!?

What exactly are the rules for this? I seem to recall reading somewhere that the FCC standards only apply at times when a minor might watch. I also still don't get why more cable channels don't push the boundaries more, since they largely comply voluntarily with these regulations (why does comedy central bleep Stewart/Colbert cursing?). As per the OP, I always found the descriptions in romance novels entertaining, especially the ones that used words I know lots of women hate like moist (my sister used to leave these in the bathroom, and it was either that or the shampoo bottle for the 30th time).

I sort of doubt it lk2, I thought so at first, but movies continue to be released in 3D, thus 3D TVs will continue to exist. I only ever experienced sports in 3D once, and it was pretty annoying, so I can see why Disney pulled the plug on that. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

From the preview I downloaded I am not sure how many closeups there would be (they didn't really show any), I would hope they would have better sense then that. It was mostly just sort of gimicky crap like the girls foot sticking out of the screen when she is laying down or her reaching out towards you. It was sort of cool at times, but I doubt worth joining a site for, plus I have to put the movie on a jump drive to play it on my TV (the USB port on my TV must not have enough power for external drives or something), and for some reason playing it through HDMI off my laptop doesn't work even though I have a "3D compatible HD" graphics card.

I got a 3D tv some time ago, but never really used the 3D until last night when I was bored and messing around. Found a sample video on one of the pay sites and tried it out, it isn't terrible, some of it seemed like it was 2d-3d conversion such that the action seemed more front-and-center, while some of it was clearly shot with a stereo camera. Its a little gimicky, doubt I would join a site like this anytime soon - especially since the two I found are both pretty small and seem to focused on large breasts. I believe most 3d TVs no longer come with those large clunky glasses, mine just look like sunglasses. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha!

When I was in France last year many of the commercials seemed a good bit racier than they could ever put on here without American's for Family American's America Foundation or whatever the hell speaking up vocally for the extreme minority. I think they generally have a healthier perspective on sex there. Although that may be unique to France, the UK always seemed a bit more conservative to me.

I have always wished sites would just start including metadata with their files, even if it is just something basic like adding the players and scene type. Perhaps some do? This type of thing has certainly made it easier organizing thousands of songs. Nowadays there is an awful lot of data in any mp3 you get (artist, genre, year, producer...), would be lovely to have the same for porn, or even a subset - then pretty much any robust media player would solve this problem.

I don't believe the cause-effect reaction of HPV is necessarily all that fast acting. I recall having read something that women who have had HPV can develop cervical cancer many years down the road and there is an established causal link to this. I would assume he was a very sexually active fellow throughout his life, and I wouldn't doubt he had HPV at some point along the way, even if it was asymptomatic. It is a very prevalent illness, and while it may not have been the cause of his cancer (more likely his years of drinknig and smoking), perhaps it will convince some more people to get vaccinated, or have their children vaccinated. My guess is pretty much every single porn star, ever, has had HPV at some point, its highly transmissible and until recently wasn't really tested for much. I got an STD test a few years ago when my lady went on the pill, and there still was no HPV test for men (according to my doctor). Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

True, but Pussy Riot was speaking out rather vocally against Putin, which surely may have been the reason they were arrested for some bullshit "crime". My guess is porn producers, while they may not like Putin, probably don't have hot ladies running around saying "fuck me, fuck me, oh, and fuck you Putin". There are or recently were lots of laws on the books, even in the US (especially the south) that forbid actions that people continue to do under the assumption no one would ever prosecute them for it. I mean, you couldn't get a legal blowjob in Alabama until 2003. Apparently I broke a lot of laws on my post graduation tour of the country... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodomy_laws...in_the_United_States On the other hand, I also don't live in Russia, and I probably wouldn't risk it either.

I'll still be around, not that I participate much, I seem to just cycle through the same few sites lately and posting a new review never seems worthwhile unless there have been major changes (and I seem to be a thread killer in the forum). Sorry to hear PU has fallen on tough times, hope you guys will be around for years to come! I doubt porn is going anywhere, but I could see how some of the smaller/older sites could start shutting down, which I guess might not be such a bad thing, I still wonder why some sites still exist - I'm looking at you Lightspeed.

I think NPR, PBS, and BBC are are reasonably good sources of news, although many would claim both NPR and PBS are far left biased (which I would strongly disagree with), I think they are much more fact based rather than opinion. At least they don't do too much of the editorializing that Fox and MSNBC do. I'm so tired of panels of talking heads yapping about their opinions on shit, I just want the news I don't really care what some idiot or so called "expert" thinks about it. Unfortunately it seems to be heading in the other direction, where people just go to the channel that will tell them what they want to hear. With regard to Palin, the HBO movie on her was pretty interesting, don't know how truthful it was, but I actually felt sorry for her after the first half or so, but then quickly remembered she's crazy.

Fast 5 was moderately entertaining, but the engineer in me just had a hard time with the driving around dragging a 5 ton safe/wrecking ball for 20 minutes bit. I know suspension of disbelief and all, but come on. Also, the mix of horrible actors/bad dialogue can get somewhat cringe inducing at times. Please, please no more Paul Walker, ever, anywhere.

I really like The Americans, I think it is a very interesting and well done show (nice to see good old Felicity getting some work). Did any of you see the recent episode of Girls? Can't recall having seen semen (fake I'm sure) in any non-porn media since Happiness. I think they do a good job of depicting being young and stupid, but christ that show brings uncomfortable moments to a whole new level - which I suppose is part of being young and stupid.

The fact of the matter is far too many American's base everything purely on the good of themselves, rather than any kind of common good whatsoever. If they perceive that a single payer system would diminish their current benefit structure they raise hell (and humorously/horrifically manage to convince a lot of, let's call them people of lesser intellect, to join the battle). The problem in the US, as stated in that Time article, is there are far too many special interests getting their cuts of pie, and very few looking out for the healthcare consumer. It would be better as a start if they got rid of fee for service altogether, it creates a disincentive for efficiency and leads many good doctors to specialize into more 'profitable fields' leading to a lack of primary care doctors. In many cases you are better off financially getting almost any job rather than going into family care considering the enormous debt you must go into for training. There is now way the salespeople that sell medical equipment should be getting paid so much more than the doctors that use it. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

I've seen a couple of episodes of Continuum, didn't even realize it was produced in Canada, guess I wasn't paying attention. There are several shows that broadcast networks play from Canada, but they are mostly police procedural type stuff (Rookie Blue, some show with Enrico Cantiloni, and some show about folks moving to LA), I am pretty confident that most Americans never would realize these shows came from Canada unless they looked it up. I guess maybe there is a risk of turning off an international audience, but I just don't get why it is so whitewashed, it makes the police shows seem even more bland than procedural cop shows typically are. All in all, I don't know that Canada is as ignored as you think. Most high school kids in the US still learn which countries landed on which beach on D-Day. Personally, both me and my girlfriend would love to live in Canada over the US (but unfortunately it is hard for doctors trained in the US to work in Canada).

The guy wasn't Jimmy Carter messmer, my memory may be shot, but it ain't that bad, it was some guy from the CIA on NPR. I can understand how Canadians would feel about a movie like Argo, but there are a few things to realize - it is a money making enterprise, so it is necessary to appeal to your wider audience (the US), also perhaps the CIA report that was declassified embellished American involvement. Is it so surprising that the American movie industry is focused primarily on American stories? Perhaps the best thing for the Canadian ego, is for the Canadian film industry to start releasing more films internationally, I can't recall having seen a Canadian film since the Kids in the Hall movie. I do find it funny that most of the Canadian TV that has been purchased/played in the US has been seemingly intentionally written to avoid any and all references to Canada (except the accents, or shots that are obviously Toronto). Movies are movies, be it loosely based on fact or entirely fiction it is both intended to entertain and make money (and often facts that writers and producers don't deem important probably aren't well investigated). Sorry if Hollywood has offended you, but they offend me all the time - Battleship (WTF), the fact that Paul Walker or Vin Diesel still make money acting... I am just waiting for the Hollywood version of Monopoly. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We're all, we're all very fond of her.

To be fair pat, it has been pretty well publicized in the US that the Canadians played the most important role in this operation, I forget the guy's name now, but he basically said that Affleck's character was only really there for a day or so, and that Canada was for more important then portrayed. I generally don't mind artistic license with "true stories" as long as they don't go crazy, it is after all meant to be entertaining (I really enjoy Moneyball, but made the mistake of watching it with a baseball nut of a friend who spent the entire movie pointing out everything that was factually wrong with it). There is after all some suspension of disbelief required with watching most films, Fast 5 had two guys dragging around a huge safe behind their car for 10 minutes, but I guess that is a bad example since it is a terrible movie, but you get my point. There are plenty of other examples of these kinds of things that piss people off, Lincoln had all of the Conn. delegation voting against the 13th amendment, which is wrong, but probably a result of laziness or poor research. Zero Dark 30 over-emphasized the use/effectiveness of torture (which is probably the worst thing the movie could do, as it makes idiots think it is effective), but I don't know that it makes it a bad movie?

Just wanted to echo everyone else's thoughts there messmer, PU is a nice place to be around even aside from the porn. The forum is interesting forum lots of great discussions, though I don't have as much time to participate as I'd like, and most of the discussions here are genial, well thought out, and generally interesting (as compared to the rest of this trainwreck we call the internet) - most other non-porn related forums I participate in are significantly less friendly and often downright mean. I wish you well if you leave, but hope you'll stop by from time to time. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman.

Even if you've killed the GPU or CPU, if the drive is still intact it isn't that big of a deal to pull it out yourself and get the data out (provided you have another computer), not sure why you would ever pay someone to 'recover' data from a perfectly fine drive (especially given the sensitive material I am sure many folks here have). I do agree with others that if you want bang for the buck, desktop is the way to go, and you can build one yourself or have someone build it for you, but if you are just looking for basic needs (not hardcore gaming), I don't know that it is worth the effort or extra cost, but you will end up with a computer with all that you want and nothing you don't. As far as the touchpad goes, it takes a bit to get used to, but I actually prefer it to a mouse - especially with multi-touch gestures. The thing I hate is that old joystick thing they used to put on laptops between the G and H, drove me fucking nuts, but I don't know that anyone does this anymore.

I used to be exclusively desktop, but have been laptop only for the last 3 years or so, and I actually prefer it for everything, I only use my desktop for media storage at this point. I think it is just a matter of getting used to it, as long as you get one that is 14"+, the adjustment isn't really all that major, and with pretty much every consumer laptop having an HDMI port these days it is easy to hook them up to any monitor/TV. If you require an immense amount of storage in the actual computer, a laptop might not be the best way to go, but you can always get externals, networks connected drives, network connected raid arrays, etc. My laptop only has a 128GB SSD in it now, and I store all downloads on network drives or my media Desktop, and this works pretty well for me. The other main downside to laptops is that most manufacturers still refuse to put full HD (1080p) on anything but their upper level laptops ($800+), I'm not sure why this is the case as 1080p laptop displays have been around for years and years, I think it is just a crappy money grab, as it forces you into getting other higher end components you may not want in order to get the display you desire. Personally, I'd get a laptop (15"), hookup a long HDMI cable to your TV, take some time to get used to it, and you wont regret it. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

Don't forget this is also the age of saddlebacking, so perhaps she has been taking it up the ass for years to maintain her technical virginity? I think this sex education/abstinence only thing is relatively recent, even when I, and most of my friends went to middle and high school we did the whole condoms on bananas crap in the 90s and early aughts - although this was a 'hard' blue state. My guess is this is a result of parents hoping their kids wont do all the naughty things they did when they were kids (which is in itself absurd). Better to show them all the ways not to fuck up their lives, then to just hope they have more restraint you did as a teenager. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

Well said Drooler, I agree she has a right to say whatever she likes. The main problem I have with all of these types of debates is perfectly illustrated here - spout of some random, most likely made up statistic to reinforce your point, god forbid we actually use facts. Much like this homophobic dipshit Campfield from Tennessee that refuses to admit sex education is beneficial (it hasn't been proven, what?!), people need to start to learn the difference between real science and "science", any study that is performed with a predetermined expected result should only be used for toilet paper.

I agree with hodaya, jumping on this girl as having a mental disorder is a bit excessive (besides, I'm guessing many women in porn have their share of 'issues'). I'm not fan of excessive tattoos, and she is certainly an example, I doubt it is going anywhere - especially in porn. If anything it is getting more common. I'd love it if every woman that did porn only had tasteful tats and piercings, but this is probably wishful thinking. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

Is the drive spinning down? That slow of an access time would seem to indicate the drive went to sleep. Toadsith, I thought the vast majority of external drives were 5400 RPM anyway, the last one I took apart was, but I can never seem to find the stats on the actual drive in the enclosure. Also, got an internal 2TB Seagate "Green" drive (5900 RPM) for $80, it runs well and I haven't seen any of the problems reported with the WD greens, although I still just don't like Seagate for some reason. I'm pretty happy with it, and porn access times seem just as good as my 1TB 7200 drive. It drops occasionally, but I am pretty sure that's because I bought a $10 SATA card. There is one company that uses actual (base-2) sizes with drives, I feel like it was Intel or something with their SSDs? I don't feel like looking it up, but losing 200GB just seems like a scam at this point. Sorry for bumping an old thread, haven't had much time to look through the forum in quite a while.

I assume he means it is a so-called "portable" external drive which is powered via USB - although I had one of these some time ago that required two USB ports which was sort of annoying.

lk2, what sorts of problems? If it just the USB connection, you can always just get a cheap enclosure and swap out the actual drive, I assume this likely isn't a big deal unless the drive is powered from the enclosure, but even then I'm sure you could figure something out. As someone said before, people have been complaining about HDs (be they crappy or good) for years, if you look around on Amazon I'm sure you can find one of my bitch fests about a particularly terrible experience I had with a Maxtor drive some time ago.

As with any technology, I think there is a risk in being an early adopter, and as Toadsith said before 3TB drives may have a higher failure rate, but the reviews of most of them don't seem any better or worse than any hard drive in general (most have been around for a year or more, so I don't even know that it would even qualify as early adopting). As for our discussion on spin speeds, I don't know that it really applies to externals, especially for large media files. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

I fully agree on the agreeing to disagree point I only mentioned the adequate use of slower drives as I have many friends that just buy the hottest shit they can afford, and then when I inquire as to what they do with it, the typical response is 'dick around on the internet'. I always tell them they are wasting their money for what their intended use is, but of course they never listen (why drive an economical reliable Prius when you can get an unreliable BMW for twice the price?). I think those that are just interested in storage and not performance are perfectly fine using 5400 drives. As I mentioned before, aside from initial load time, there is no way a 7200 drive would generate a smoother video than a 5400 drive unless the bitrate was insanely high, I tested this on my three internal drives with a very large file on my desktop (SSD/7200/5400) and the only difference was load time, which was significantly improved only with the SSD. Perhaps I am mainly just biased because I have had three different 7200 drives fail, and never had a 5400 one fail, but perhaps that is just bad luck. Either way, I'm sure you'll go on enjoying your "fast" drives, and I'll be perfectly happy with my "slow" ones. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha!

I agree that faster drives are certainly better for games, programs, OS and the like, but since most here are just worried about storage and reliability, there are no real issues with slower drives in that sense. Even a 5400 RPM drive should be able to handle sustained read/write speeds of 25 MB/s which is more than enough to handle an HD video unless it is encoded at some insane bitrate above 100 mbps (which would be like three times higher than blu-ray). Obviously access times are better, but it would never be more than seconds, and how fast do we really need the porn to load? I've loaded 20+ GB HD videos off my older 5400 drive that I stuck in my media center and it never takes more than a second or two to load. Certainly if you had copious amount of excess cash, a 10,000 RPM drive would be nice, but I still sort of doubt it is worth it just for storage, most of the 10k drives seem to be enterprise anyway. Also, though not a major issue with desktops, it is worth mentioning that 7200 drives use a good bit more power, and thus would drain any laptop battery faster.

Sorry for joining this discussion late, CT, but just curious why the hate on 5400 RPM drives? They seem to be more durable, less heat, less noise, I sort of like them, particularly for any kind of media storage type PC/Tivo/HTPC, provided it isn't being used as the OS drive. Of course, I haven't seen many in the larger sizes. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We're all, we're all very fond of her.

I don't really understand why this is such a big deal, celebrities go topless on beaches and in foreign countries all the time, sometimes photos are taken. Whether it was a private property or not, I'd be surprised if there weren't other people around (security, other guests), and she was comfortable with that, so who cares? I don't feel like looking, but I'm going to guess this kind of crap happens all the time in France. I'm not a fan of paparazzi, and think they often endanger their targets or other bystanders, but in this celebrity obsessed society we all live in, I don't see them going away, and in this case I really just don't get the big hullabaloo.

I hear what you are saying, and I'm sure eventually they will trend down, but I don't really consider it a 'fashion' at this point, to me it would be sort of like saying girls wearing earrings is a passing fad. I'm sure there may be a point where women stop wearing jewelry, but it certainly isn't going to happen anytime in the near future. Tattoos have been around a while, and if anything, are growing in popularity, it certainly isn't anything like pencil skirts or the bob. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

I sort of doubt it will pass, Capn. I know many women (and men) with tattoos, and very few who regret getting them, and I don't really see this changing. They see it as an act of personal expression, and I can certainly see how porn stars would particularly want to express themselves in this fashion. Elephant, I believe x-art actively tries to photograph models with tattoos in a fashion that makes them less visable. I seem to recall Emma Mae wearing part of a shirt for the entire scene she was in, I assume to cover her sleaves, I thought I had it somewhere, but can't seem to find it. I agree tattoos can often be distracing and ugly, but I think it is just something we have to accept. For some reason it seems like the longer they are in the industry, the more obnoxious the tattoo. Like messmer, I have accepted most tattoos, my last three girlfriends have all had them, but I do wish they would avoid excessively large ones, or putting them in undersireable locations (UPA).
