Let me get this straight...you claim to have read ALL of my posts but missed the ones from the last few weeks that pertained to 3D technology, Lego play sets from the 80's, HD failures and PS3 HDMI cables??? That makes you one of two things...a liar or an idiot. I'm actually inclined to say it's a combination of the two. There's no way your life is so boring and devoid of purpose or substance that you had the time to read ALL of my posts. That's a flat out lie. No one has that time unless you have Internet access in Cell Block D. Chances are you simply read the ones after I had my "Slashdot Meltdown" and in that case they were deliberately meant to be trollish because the Slashdot admins declined to delete my account and any affiliation I have with this pathetic excuse for a site. Let's say for argument sake you at least read the last month and therefore read the posts I mentioned above. You're either lying about not seeing them OR not smart enough to realize the benign nature of those posts. Either way you're a liar for not having read the HUNDREDS of posts I've made over the years and possibly an idiot on top of that if you did actually read my recent posts and couldn't comprehend them.
With that being said you're in no position to judge me. I've been completely honest in my opinions where as you have lied. I can think of no reason that a liar is in any position to judge those that are truthful even if the truth is unpopular.
Let me be very clear here. You are now an established liar and have ZERO credibility with me. I am done with you. I'd rather be challenged by someone that doesn't have to resort to lying.
Oh please...you have no idea what you're talking about.
A) I rarely post here
B) When I do it's most often in articles where I share anecdotes as opposed to jokes.
C) I've been modded down for not agreeing with the group concensus...usually in the form of saying something positive about MS or responding to someone's clichéd rant against the US. I even got modded down for saying something positive about 3D....my bad...I didn't realize knocking the technology was the cool thing to do here.
Do you realize how silly you look saying "It's because of the combative, insulting, and generally petulant nature of your posts." It's only been my most recent posts that have been in the form of "LINUX IS TEH BEST" because I'm so tired of people like yourself modding me down when others are modded up for posting jokes or fanboy rants about Linux. Irony at it's best. You don't mod down the people who post in the manner that I'm spoofing but then mod me down for pointing it out.
My misdirected rage??? HAHAHAH!! That's code for "People don't like it when you point out how things work". It's like talking to a religious person about why their beliefs are illogical. Do they listen? No they usually insult you and flip out. That's what's going on here. Noone wants to have the boat rocked so to speak so the easiest way to deal with that is to silence people like myself who are frankly tired of "MS is teh evil" posts and seeing them get modded +5 Informative.
...after having seen the Avatar IMAX footage I can't wait to be able to show that in it's full 3D splendor in my HT. Let's also not forget that the PS3 will be able to support 3D which makes games the most obvious benefactor of this new technology. I couldn't care less if it takes the world of television years to figure this out. Game companies are the best at taking advantage of new tech and if the Wii is any indication of whats to come it wont take much time at all for companies to find ways of incorporating 3D into the games.
Let me guess...the guy who wrote this article also wrote the one about "Sony is teh doomed" for removing linux support from the PS3.
Hard Disks have a higher life expectancy?? Did I read that correctly? Mechanical devices like a HD are far more likely to fail. I've been building PCs since the early 90s and I've never had a single board die on me yet I've had countless drives go.
You're right...the PS3 is not a game console...the mere fact that it's ENTIRE revenue model is centered around licensing games is just a coincidence. All this time I thought the PS3 was a game console...silly me...comes with a controller...has pictures of games all over the box...90% of its software are games...can't believe I let those facts dupe me when all along I should have realized it's a general purpose computer because it happens to use PC hardware inside.
Funny...every PS3 game I own is an exclusive...they will never be out on the PC. The PS3 is first and foremost a game console to pretend otherwise is just silly. The whole business model centers around people having their games licensed for sale. Do I really have to explain what a game console is in 2009?
This was modded insightful? He completely ignores the small fact that you can't play 90% of these games on a PC. A console is for playing games first and foremost. It's not a PC with restrictions...its an arcade machine with extra functionality.
...who gives a shit. People buy the PS3 for two reasons...to play games and to watch BluRay. I'm sure Sony's stock will plummet once the market finds out that 45 people no longer have a reason to buy a PS3.
I take it your resume includes the design and operation of an orbiting power plant?
This whole Monday morning quarterbacking thing here is beyond ridiculous. Hopefully the Japanese have this site bookmarked so they can rethink their strategy after reading your profound and deeply insightful post.
...that 99% of the people commenting on this article have never read the book. But that won't stop them from going on about their own theories and challenging what they THINK is in the book.
This place continues to be a joke!!!! Thanks for proving my point! You mod the guy with the baseless claim as informative but then mod me a troll for pointing that out. Guess we don't want anyone exposing the silliness that goes on here. We don't want anyone challenging the status quo.
I guess because you used big words and acted real confident in your dismissal people modded you informative. Next time read the article and don't spout of about GPU's performing branching as if that's even on the table and thus somehow dismisses this guys prediction.

..Lego has had weaponry since the 80's. The medieval sets had spears, bows and arrows. The space sets had laser cannons.
...they never included those cables. I bought a launch day PS3...guess what?? No HDMI cable!!!!!
Hard Disks have a higher life expectancy?? Did I read that correctly? Mechanical devices like a HD are far more likely to fail. I've been building PCs since the early 90s and I've never had a single board die on me yet I've had countless drives go.
is to pursue a career in computing which guarantees zero opportunities for this phenomena to occur

Now this should be modded insightful...well said

Yeah...nuclear missiles and stealth bombers should be the property of private companies...what could the harm be? (rolls eyes)

Next time read the article...the guy making the prediction is the CEO of Nvidia.
