  1. Already are 64 bit on IBM to Release 64-Bit, 1.8GHz Processor in 2003 · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'm pretty positive the current dual processor Ghz machines out right now are 64 bit already. So start thinking about that request now.

  2. you're an idiot on New Trailer For The Two Towers · · Score: 1

    AND bunkka is one of the worst fucking albums i've ever heard in my life. i can't believe there are people that enjoy that album.

  3. By far one of the most hilarious things i've seen on WebTV/MSNTV Virus Dials 911 · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Now only if i could come up with some witty comment for this to be modded up to 5, funny. oh well.

  4. Don't forget nu skool breaks. on Electronic Music 101? · · Score: 1

    Such as Meat Katie, Elite Force, ILS, BLIM, etc.

  5. More problems other than the 127 states.. on First Virtual Piano Competition · · Score: 1

    under MIDI specifications, you can only transmit one controller message at a time, so if yuo want to play a chord for example, all at the exact same time (yes i know it's humanly impossible to hit at the same time), it wouldn't say "CEG" all at once.. it'd first say "C velocity 80" "E velocity 92" "G velocity 50" .. now if you8're hitting the pedals at the while playing the keys, either the pedal movenets or the note your playuing has to take precidence... so SOMETHING will be "off" and not how it was originally played.

    that's fucked up if you ask me. midi sucks

  6. MIDI SUCKS. on First Virtual Piano Competition · · Score: 1

    If the system uses MIDI, it is already not capable of performing correctly. Under MIDI, if yuo try to have multiple hits at once, they do not broadcast at the same time, but rather in a sequence, with a 1-10ms delay inbetween the data. Play this data in a concert hall, and those small delays become more and more apparent with the reverb. This is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE especially in a piano performance environment. All these replys that are saying "oh the piano is in a different envorionment so it'd sound different!" .. that's the LEAST of the problems if the system is using MIDI. MIDI is an outdated piece of SHIT standard created in the 80s. It sucks. Stay away from MIDI. Horrible horrible horrible.

    I wear my "MIDI sucks" shirt with pride.

  7. Reverse translation? on Protein Music · · Score: 1

    What I'm interested in is, what if you took a Mozart piece, converted it back into DNA, and spliced that DNA into a test tube baby? Would the child be a genetic mutation that is horrid to look at, or a perfect human?

  8. they do this because... on AmigaOS 3.9 Released At World of Amiga Show · · Score: 1

    there were prolly 21 companies, and 20+ sounds more than 21.
