    Nah, he is clearly imitating a Frenchman trying to speak English...

    No, THIS is what Swedish sounds like.

    ...or you could just leave your computer on 24/7. It also makes you a better seeder. :)
    When I turn my computers off it gets so silent that I hear my (minor) tinnitus and I find it harder to sleep.

    There are 18 persons with my name in the world and three of us live in the same little 65k Swedish town and we have no relation at all. Pretty strange.

    They should switch to a warp speed naming scheme after 1.4 so 1.5 would be Warp 1, the version after that Warp 2, etc.

  7. Re:My only question is... on HDMI Labeling Requirements Promise a Stew of Confusion · · Score: 1

    Isn't it pretty standard these days to use a "home cinema" receiver with a bunch of HDMI inputs and a single HDMI cable to the TV? With that setup, having audio through the same cables as video is a great feature!

    If they make a keyboard with this builtin (instead of the numeric keypad), I'm getting one.

    The best joysticks for retrogaming are of course the original ones with a Retro Adapter.

    It has support for most original joysticks and gamepads: C64/Amiga, Atari 8-bit computers and consoles, Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis/Megadrive, Saturn, Neo Geo, MSX, BBC Micro, PCE/TGFX, NES, SNES, N64, PSX, PS2, 3DO, CD32, PC Gameport, you name it.

  13. Re:Reliability? on SSDs vs. Hard Drives In Value Comparison · · Score: 1

    Do not ever put a database on RAID-5 or RAID-6! The write performance will be worse than if you had it on a single disk! Always use RAID-10 for databases.
    RAID-5/6 is only for when you need lots of read-mostly storage space and don't care much about write performance.

    Well, she sure is naive and stupid, but Michael Savage is still a douchebag, a bully and a fascist. I honestly don't understand why people like him, Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck can be so popular. They do nothing but spread hatred. It must really suck living a life being so bitter.

    I'm a member, an activist and a supporter since the same day it was started but I'm not part of the core team.

    They had a debate article in the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet today and they have it translated to English here. Basically they say that they will host it until its legal status is clarified. That means until it's clarified legal or when it's not possible to appeal to any higher courts.

    Today they DON'T run any trackers, only the website and the search engine. I suspect that's what they will do in the parliament also.

    Mastering Swedish, lesson 3 (and the other parts) is a quick way to learn Swedish. It contains all the common phrases.

    Sweden is beautiful in july and august when the weather is good but awfully cold most of the year. If you go here, make sure it's in the summer.

  23. Re:A honeypot? Or are they for real? on Swedish Pirate Party To Run Pirate Bay From Parliament · · Score: 3, Informative

    As it's in the constitution, not just a normal law, they will have to make the proposition to change it this election period (only a few months left), then have the majority of the parliament vote yes for it the next election period, and then have the parliament the election period after that also vote yes. Not until then it can be changed.

    On the other hand, they have ignored the constitution before because Sweden doesn't have a constitutional court, only a "constitution committee" that can only make "recommendations".

    All PS3s can play original PS1 game discs. It doesn't do any upscaling or other enhancements though, it's just like having standard PS1 with HDMI.
