    So it's an oligopoly, is that really any better?

    That all depends on what you're using.

    That free game on Steam, Alien Swarm, disappears remaining ammo in your previous clip when you reload.

    Say cheese!

  6. Re:Not an RPG on Spore-Inspired Action RPG Darkspore Announced · · Score: 1

    I really likes the Cell phase, not so much after that.

    So it seems that it requires 1000W to cut 0.02" deep into aluminum

  8. Re:Question... on Warships May Get Lasers For Close-In Defense · · Score: 1

    Hmm, Mylar has 98% reflectivity. So a target wrapped in mylar would receive 640W. That still sounds like a lot, depending on how big the focus point is, how long the LASER can stay focused on the area, and how far away the target is.

  9. Re:Numerous advantages on Warships May Get Lasers For Close-In Defense · · Score: 1

    99% reflectivity meaning only 1% makes it to the target area.

    Please sit still while I pelt you with this LASER.

  11. Re:Numerous advantages on Warships May Get Lasers For Close-In Defense · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that they used mirrors to aim the laser, is this not true?

  12. Re:Glossy screens with polarized glasses are ideal on Does Anyone Really Prefer Glossy Screens? · · Score: 1

    If you tilt your head enough wearing polarized glasses, you can see all the dust specks on your monitor, but nothing else.

    Wow, that dude is messed up. I've never seen anything other than "gl hf" and "gg" playing the beta. Maybe you're one of the lucky few that had working VOIP?

  14. Re:A smartphone isn't even CLOSE to a PC. on Is PC Gaming Set For a Comeback? · · Score: 1

    Your's missing the point. Mobile devices will replace PCs... theres already some with pico projectors in them, add a laser keyboard... just need a little more power, storage in the cloud. You want a mouse, there's tiny bluetooth mice. This is now. Laptops sales recently displaced desktop sales. 10-15 years isn't unreasonable.

    Did you miss the part where the boxes cost more to the consumer, both in box rentals and electricity?

    Not all DVI

  17. Re:good. on Working Toward a Universal Power Brick For Laptops · · Score: 1

    DisplayPort isn't just an Apple thing, AMD/ATI is pushing it big time for Eyefinity, seeing as a single graphics card with DisplayPort can support more than just two displays (DVI/HDMI is limited to two by design, RAMDAC I think).

    Eggos aren't round anymore?

    Smartphones weren't nearly ubiquitous 30 years ago.

    He was not impressed with the eyePhone until he asked, then the Genius or whatever said something along the lines of "there's three", then Bender was all in.

    PC games will be around as long as there are PCs.

    10-15 years tops.

  25. Re:AdDot on New Xbox 360 S Uses Less Power, Makes Less Noise · · Score: 1

    The only time I get an RROD with my launch box is when I don't plug the PS in far enough. Scared me the first time. Also, the thing is noisy as all hell now, probably could get a "Slim"
