Give me DX 11 to my XP and fuck Windows 7. I don't need any fancy feature.
I installed XP in the 2001 and I still run the very same version, sure it gave me a couple of problems when I have upgraded my motherboard, especially switching from Intel to AMD and back, but I always managed to get it work.
I have every little app the way I want it, and until I need 6GB of ram I don't need to leave 32-bit. Sure it doesn't recognize all the 4GB of RAM I have, but Windows Vista / 7 will eat all the difference anyway.
P.S: I'm using all versions of Windows and Linux at work, but at home XP does all I need.
If this gearbox works we could see a massive decrease in fuel consumption and much better power delivery in our cars. Because right now the gearboxes are rubbish, they haven't evolved much in the last decades.
I don't know about US, but in mine in to get the person name associated with the IP you need a judge order. And you won't get one unless you are charged with a criminal activity.
Sharing files for non profit reason is not a criminal activity, hence you will never get the name of the person using bitttorrent.
They will become the next layer, where we use our applications / games.
Hopefully the current OS-es will become irrelevant and we will fight over who is better: Firefox, Chrome or IE.
Firefox will be for geeks, who likes to customize their stuff. Chrome will be the fastest and secure out of the box. IE / Safari the one with the most aggressive marketing.
When you have an optic line in your home you don't need removable media.
USB and CD's are so 20th century.:)
I have my own FTP, SSH and torrent WEB GUI accessible to all my friends. You can torrent from every place on earth, firewalls can't stop you, the only limitation is your bandwidth.
If you want to be dramatic, one day the whole universe will shut down.
But my question remains valid, why do you have to invest in space travel now, when you have all those empty oceans?
We still got 80% of un-colonized earth in form of deserts and oceans. Why the hell do we need to space travel before we even come close to use our Earth first?
Some European telecoms groups fear Google will reduce them to 'dumb pipes'
That is really all that they are, or at least should be. They are not content providers, they are merely facilitators.
Maybe their concern is that it'll become obvious to everyone that they're dumb pipes, and that they're dumb pipes whose business model, pricing infrastructure can't cope with piping all that well.
No, their business model if fine, they make a lot of money, they just, you know, want more money.
Slashdot Mirror
I guess it was the same person who modded you as a Troll. :/
:)
But fear not, my Karma is too high.
P.S: Fuck you Adobe!
Fuck you!
The sooner the web get rid of this bloated crap the better.
I bought my first Sound Blaster for Ultima Underworld II, the experience was so good I was scared to play at first. :)
Of course I enjoyed good sound during my Amiga 500 experience, but the PC era was quiet for a moment.

As long as there will be people unwilling to pay there will be piracy. You can combat them, but you will just get less piracy and no financial gain.
If people don't want to spend money, they won't. If it is free they might want to check it out.

Leave the AI to drive your car and if you feel bored play the last car simulation while you wait to arrive at your destination.
:)
There is no reason we have to wait stuck in traffic because you feel you are losing your freedom to drive like a jackass.
I don't know about you but a lot of stupid things done in the past are now one of the best memories I have.
It's life, you will eventually die anyway.
As long as they manage to isolate Java and Adobe from crushing the whole damn thing it's good enough for me.
I always bought CIV, but if this DRM is too restrictive I'll just get it for free.
Why would I pay to have more problems?
I'll wait and see.
PS3 is so far warez free, stop bitching and develop only for this platform.
What? You like even less Sony then pirates? Bad luck.
Nope, for most of the EU sharing files in a non profitable way will not get you in trouble.
:(
I'm happy sharing 100GB per day.
Only the e-fascist countries goes after non-profit file sharers.
I do feel your pain

Yap,
Just check http://www.speedtest.net/global.php#0 and you will see how the USA is a 3rd world country when it comes to Internet.
It's not like they force you to buy anything.
P.S: Adblock plus FTW!

Of course, but when the state decides to finance the Mars expedition it is our money we are talking about.
This is why I put the emphasis on "dramatic".
As for space travel, the fact is, it is not economically viable with the current technology.
We need to be smart and use our resources in the most useful way.
I'm not against meteor shield. Just space traveling, for the time being.
I have a different concept of future, a more virtual one, where we expand at the speed of light in every direction.

PS3 is so far warez free, yet I don't see any promised price drop.
The message is pretty clear to me. Don't like the price? Pirate more.
