  1. alas on Unlocking the GeForce 6800 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Again, a lot of newbies posting on slashdot. VGA card modding is nothing new (ATI released moddable cards 9500-9700pro and other stuff) a while back. Just go google for them. Also, 200$ for a graphics card is not overkill - you get what you pay for.

    Roberto del Puerto: Good job amigo - now ve show those Microsoft bastards ve don't use zeir windows!

    Roberto: Hey! What's this? No start Button? How do i use zis thing?
    Sysadmin: Uhhh you open an Xterm and you type in a few commands
    Roberto: But my Motorola smartphone - it no work? Oh no - how will the rest of the idiots use zeese systems?
    Sysadmin: That's your problem amigo - you told me to put linux, so i put Linux on zem machines
    Roberto: Oh no! Fidel will have my cigars and my head!!
    Sysadmin: *shrug*

    Next day on /. : Roberto del Puerto (as reported on Slasdot the other day ) has defected to the US...

    Sorry - couldn't resist :)

    I am currently undergoing therapy and it is almost helping. I almost believe i cannot marry a night elf female anymore :(. Blizzard did some kinda experiment on me when they released that game "World of Warcraft". *Cry* OH PAIN!.

    "I feel betrayed and offended"

    Someone posted that on the blog. I think he/she should feel foolish rather than feel betrayed. Or that should be read as "I am so fucking dumb that i cannot believe i did what i did".

    Bah you idiot - you must be an American we are talking about here - i mean ignorant and presumptuous. That was supposed to be funny for all the other geeks. Pffft - disrespectful?

  9. Re:Some enterprising young man or woman... on National PC Recycling Plan Proposed, Again · · Score: 1

    I remember reading in an encyclopaedia about 10 years ago. The name of the book is "How is it done". What you described - getting gold from PCs is actually done or to put more precisely was done as mentioned in that book. This is about 10+ years old.

    People have been doing it - they forgot to send you a memo ;)

    Camera phones will never take over DSLRs or serious digital cameras but are we seeing what will be the death of the entry level point and shoot digicam Wow - that's gotta be the observation of the centry.

    Of course they wont - it is like saying that a laptop can never take over the Ipod even though the laptop might have a cutting edge audio-subsystem built into it. Where is the slashdot i used to read and enjoy?

    I'm sure we all know how the hdd seems to be the bottle neck now.

    Now? You must be new to computing. Go back and open that Operating systems textbook and look up the chapter that talks about memory hierarchy.

  18. weeeeeee on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Launch · · Score: 1

    I purchased the game last evening and played till wee hours of the morning. I love the game even though the graphics department fell short. I love that you can swim. I hate that i have to feed my character now and then lest he should lose his stamina.

    I love the country-side and the fact you can outrace a car on your little BMX bicycle. I love the farm tractors and getting on the freeway (highway) with a lawnmower - that's what i just did for a good two hours - get on vehicles and drive around. There was this one place where my buddy was playing and CJ was on a hilly area and he rode the motobike straight into a advertising board and came out the other way with a "big hole" in the board - that was AWESOME!!!!

    This game is pretty sweet :). Get yours today

    I mean if Google could accomplish it, without intimate knowledge of the OS, Office/Outlook/etc file formats..
    It doesn't work that way - how do you Google has no "intimate knowledge" of the internals of a Windows OS - i mean i am your regular window washer (literally) and i know how storage works within Windows. You can be assured Google knows what you just stated it wouldn't know.
