and here i thought my 50" plasma was impressive:p it might just be the boost for pc gaming that it needs with all the bad piracy press its been getting, i can never get used to fps's playing with an xbox controller, the question with all the beefy specs its gonna need is the price. I dont think i'd go for it myself i like poking around in my pc way too much but it might just hit with the 'laptop-crowd' . I'm definitely curious to see how it turns out
i dunno, they talk about a four year lifecycle... most stuff in my pc is about that age but gfx-cards seem to have more like a two year lifecycle really, only for the gaming bit, it was my last upgrade, the card itself cost more than a ps3 actually, how this has to work out i dont see, not if the new pc-games are supposed to surpass the old, unless you are allowed to open up the console and stick in a new card without losing warranty? fat chance there
i'd rather see microsoft come up with a 50euro windows for gamers version, since basically i only boot into windows to play games on steam and origin, anything else ye olde ubuntu is way better and flexible (for me at least) and way less 'weighty'
except for the part that the latest releases dont really accept that gfx card very well on a standard install
yeh, i had a feeling electing Cameron wasnt one of their brightest ideas... times of crisis and the strong man all over again, i dont see them giving extra funding to history teachers anywhere really... i'm also starting to get a feeling the nazis must have used their last bombing run on brittain to infect pregnant women with specially treated nazi dna and its beginning to show... next up : the royal navy needs lebensraum?
actually yea, i saw this video on youtube with a masked guy asking to download hoic and or loic for an attack on facebook (what they would want to achieve with that is a bit unclear... blacking out facebook for a few hours has like zero consequence or political impact imo) sounded a bit like testosterone headbutting contest... so i download it and scanned them both, avira gave nothing but housecall found malware in one of them... so that's what i posted in a reply to the video...
i dont know who would be so smart as to just download something from anyone with a mask thats available anywhere and install it without scanning but apparently some people did... stupid?
yea
i can not believe the core of this movement would do something that obvious knowing how it would damage their reputation, fodder for the feds and such now, discredit, anyone can don the mask, everything gets exploited but i'm a bit like well, if you installed that without scanning, you kinda had it like coming, just a little bit
did i already say that anyone can don the mask and make any claim about anything at all... i saw a post there at the time saying there was no mention of ddos attack on facebook on the 'official' anonymous channels, wherever that may be
i still believe in it, tho i see way more potential in a cooperation between a faceless publishing house and wikileaks than a bit of ddos attacks by some disgruntled whatevers, assange was taken down because he brought to attention what would otherwise have stayed mostly in the usual channels, he had a public face and could be attacked... masked resistance publishing leaked documents would be way harder to trace and like i said, way more useful than just painting funny moustaches on websites or blacking them out for a few hours
we'll see:p (what struck me most was the total difference in style, the guy from the wall street video was clearly highly educated and very eloquent while the guy from the youtube facebook ddos was clearly not... might have been a clue)
or not
we'll see:p
i'm very sorry to post twice on this but i just read some stats and from what i see, overweight or obesitas or what's it called professionally seems to be a much bigger problem than anorexia
(sorry, just felt i had to add this)
i am most likely not the target of that modelling industry but i heard this so many times before, i dont really see a lot of kids starving themselves because of what they see in magazines either but most of all the fact that some of these skinny models are compared to anorexia patients baffles me, someone suffering from anorexia is pretty much incapable of doing anything they look indeed like walking skeletons, definitely not like anything you'd see on a catwalk, with a few exceptions probably.
Anyway, i'm opposed against censorship of any kind, even if its offensive (most of the time it is to someone somewhere). That goes from censoring muhammad out of south park to forcing magazines to ban certain kind of photo's, no matter the subject, as long as its voluntarily, i'm definitely not including child porn here even if that seems to be the perfect hammer to block about everything right now
plaster the walls with tin foil or have a giant microwave oven constructed to serve as your living room or office tho that might make you feel a little uncomfortable
maybe something to do with not being able to access and control enough energy to bend space on itself and pierce through it (as far as i think i understand how it would work)
yea, without getting into the boys-vs-girls thing, what happened to 'having a knack' for something, you can't just expect everyone to be on the same level and have the same capabilities to do everything alike, i sincerely feel that scouting out particular personal talents and interests would be way more helpful than forcing advanced math down every kids throat, imo that would lead more to frustration than to improvement in a lot of cases, i'm not a wiz of any kind, i could fix your pc, do your little homenetwork and stuff, and a few other things maybe but don't ask me to build you a brick wall if you gotta sleep next to it... talent? interest, not the compound type
i never will, maybe there's a reason why, when unregulated and everything just going its way the skinny ones are the supermodels, not that i know it, except for the fact that i really like skinny women, but other than that it's just more censorship . I suppose these researchers have been threatened out of sex by their round moms on the couch, i definitely have to veto this. If anyone feels like starting an agency for fat moms and round models only, why dont they do that then instead of using the b-word again?
if i could afford it i'd get it just to keep my pets safe... or children, in the case of normal people i guess, least of all not to mention the emotional damage of seeing your cage turning into rubble
yea, this week here a guy gets busted for uploading a kaiser chiefs album pre-release... cops bust into his house, find a lot of movies and such stored on some hard disks , result : 65k, thats sixty five thousand euros to pay, the guys life is ruined, average joe could make that in about four years i guess, if he didnt eat. Now me, being an ex-convicted masscriminal i got fined for selling dope : 5000... (not going into my case) if you think up and downloading warrants ruining someones life, i can see why you would post that as an anonymous coward. To them its pretty simple, they get about what he could have spent in a whole life on cds perhaps and then they're gone, what they SHOULD do is find ways to re-think everything, piracy as its called is not something new, i'm gonna repeat my same thing again : with the cassette recorder and everyone taping at home the music industry was going broke, now its this, in ten years its something else, these are extortion tactics and they are destroying peoples lives. What's needed is some solidarity : IF excessive fines are given, nothing from that label should be bought anymore, collectively, until they take it back, that is the only possible reply
to be honest, if you think about it, if they're really as smart as they pretend to be, the coördinators themselves will never engage in actual 'hacking', but i don't think i said this, it might give ideas to the wrong people about the wrong people can i still un-post this now?
that makes everyone here pretty much a suspect then i suppose, what a nice way to spend tax money with the world in a state like this... who analyzes the data when the red light goes on anyway? have they finally found a use for those monkeys attempting to recreate shakespeare then?
from what i read here and there they already try their best to save 'the children' from their own past overthere, information about that period and definitely the national socialist party is very much scrutinized... and here i was you had to learn from history, not forget it
they definitely wouldnt have checked it... i'm kinda looking forward to the re-testing, anything that shakes the world upside down without explosions is a good thing. I might (i am in fact) be very much out of my league since i'm a total physics noob but i dont see why these results have to imply that einsteins theories would be flawed, incomplete at most since all of the formulas require an absolute vacuum which doesnt exist here (or anywhere as far as i understand it) with no... i lack the proper words quantum friction? quantum rubble? it might still just have something to do with the environment and the way the neutrinos just go through everything where photons don't (but let me repeat, i'm a total noob or layman as they say, just very much interested in all the wonders this place has to offer)
i rarely dare speak on this subject but i have had the opinion for a very long time that in a lot of cases , whatever the 'condition' it's classified as a condition because it is out of the boundaries of the normal. With it comes a stigma : the 'mental' condition. Isn't it normal that highly intelligent people (normal, there it is again), like yourself in this case are bound to perceive the world differently than the middle of the bell curve would? Cant it be deducted that this would lead to a behaviour pattern and definitely thought patterns that don't match those of the middle of the bell curve. I've read about so many different states of mind and they are all just 'autism' ? Has anyone actually defined autism to be something solid yet? Or is it like borderline (something completely different i know, i dont mean any offense whatsoever if you might think so) where people get diagnosed with the 'condition' because they don't fit into any other single category? Brainscience and pyschology are really in need of lots of funding because so far i think it's only starting to scratch the surface

let's start by testing sopa, pipa, acta and the other blabla first then ... perfect testing grounds
plaster the walls with tin foil or have a giant microwave oven constructed to serve as your living room or office tho that might make you feel a little uncomfortable

yea, my first thought was like : omg, censor-gun ... but i can see the benefits of something like this at a justin bieber concert tho
if i could afford it i'd get it just to keep my pets safe ... or children, in the case of normal people i guess, least of all not to mention the emotional damage of seeing your cage turning into rubble
the Batman, obviously
thanks for this link i could use a good laugh ... one time thing, that's like ... really really funny
yea, this week here a guy gets busted for uploading a kaiser chiefs album pre-release ... cops bust into his house, find a lot of movies and such stored on some hard disks , result : 65k, thats sixty five thousand euros to pay, the guys life is ruined, average joe could make that in about four years i guess, if he didnt eat.

for the porn industry to start their own private piratepal then ... anyone ?
they definitely wouldnt have checked it ... i'm kinda looking forward to the re-testing, anything that shakes the world upside down without explosions is a good thing.

so, if the foton got there first they wouldnt have noticed the cable was loose because everything would have fit the bill ?
