I don't remember all the technical details, but I know I was not using the newest driver. It caused Windows to complain about memory errors and blue screened so I removed it and reinstalled the driver that came in the box. Later a newer driver came out but it caused the same problems so I had to stick with the old one. Maybe the newer driver would have helped performance. I'll never know though because it was just too unstable on my system.
GeForces just don't work right on some systems. I upgraded from a Voodoo3 to a GeForce 3 a couple years ago on a 700Mhz Athlon and went from being pegged at 70fps in Team Fortress and Counter-Strike to dropping as low as 30fps in the same game on the same computer. Now I have a faster computer with a 9800Pro and I'm at 70fps or higher in every game so far. Ready for HL2 and Deus Ex 2. Whoohoo!
Regardless of what you call it, the Soviet Union is what Communists created when they had absolute power to impose any system they wanted - 30 million murdered and an entire civilization in poverty for 70 years.
I assumed the same thing but... There was a slashdot poll not long ago on height/weight ratios that showed most slashdotter are, or claim to be, skinny.
Best part is no xen levels. Technically it sounds like they've done everything one could hope for. If the story is good and the game runs smoothly, this is going to be an excellent game.
The demo defaulted to 640x480 on my system. When I upped it to 800x600 it looked significantly better, although not quite cutting edge. There are some lighting/shadow settings that might improve the look. I haven't messed with those yet.

It depends on whether they broke the law and what those laws were and whether they had a fair trial. If they are all murderers and rapists, then there's nothing wrong with putting them in jail. If they are innocent, then we have a problem.
I propose an IPv6 protocol app that allows you to browse other sites on the internet. Each site will store one or more files in a standard markup language. The app will download these files and render the text and images in a desktop window. The markup language should include links to other sites and files, creating a sort of "web." It could be useful for scientists who want to exchange research data.
So he's basically protesting his own SUV, maybe even after putting 100k miles on it in just three years. Talk about hypocrisy.
Around here we have people who complain about urban sprawl and the elimination of farm land. Guess where they live? Yup. In suburban housing developments built on former farms.

This is exactly the same information that's used to prevent and disable viruses.
You don't have to be rich to own stock in their companies.
There's always http by telnet client.

If that were the case, all inventors would be female.

Internet Explorer 6.0 shows just the background color of each page. No text. Mozilla displays the site correctly. Weird.
Open source is funded by the parents of college students.

I wish I'd read this before I attempted - now I have a few (ok, 8) unsightly holes in my wall.
Worst of all, it was a wireless network. *rimshot* Thank you. You've been a great crowd.
How do I mod down the story as flamebait?

They have a free version there with limited functions. I wonder if anyone in the music industry has tried to crack it.

You missed a line or two. The sarcasm detector doesn't explode until someone looks at it and says, "Oh that's useful."
Yes that would be a problem. It wouldn't make the country a police state though, which is what the topic was.

Technically there is now no reason to ever leave McDonalds.
If you wanted a color monitor, you could buy one of those plastic covers that made the white text look amber.

Much better than traditional live recordings even if the quality suffers. It's not just a live concert... it's a concert you attended.
