  1. Re:One problem machine out of many installs on Windows XP SP3 Creating Havoc · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I haven't had to do a clean reinstall on any of my macs since OS 9..

    I can't tell you how many times I've had to reinstall windows on my PCs.. I've completely lost count.

  2. Re:Graphics Cards on Theorizing a Big Apple Push Into Gaming · · Score: 1

    It certainly wasn't intended to be, but I do find it annoying that Apple isn't working harder on bringing good videocards to mac. I spent nearly $5,000 on my quad core and was let down by the videocard performance when I switched to bootcamp and loaded up a few games like CSS and HL2.

    I in all seriousness went out and got a PC just for gaming as a result.

    >Ok, I'm 99% sure you're a blatant troll, but to give you the benefit of doubt..

    Take a look at my posting record and ask yourself if I'm a troll.

    True enough, but why should apple focus on only mobile gaming and ignore their computer lineup?

  6. Graphics Cards on Theorizing a Big Apple Push Into Gaming · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How about Apple fixes it's graphics cards lineup before shooting for the moon.

    I have a Quad-Core 3.0 and I can tell you, with the GPUs that came with it, I can barely play WoW, nevermind any other new games.

    I had to buy a new PC in order to play any of the new games out because my mac (as great as it is), cannot handle the games.

    On an unrelated note, ever since the NSA started giving me free Cisco routers, I can't help but think they're just honest guys trying to help out regular Joes like me.

    The solution: Buy a router from every major router maker, then use them all chain-linked together. That way you get super-ultra firewall protection.. and unless the Chinese AND the NSA are working together, you can't be hacked! FLAWLESS VICTORY!

  20. Re:Grounds to contest? on Cities Tampering With Traffic Lights To Generate Revenue · · Score: 1

    Really? Suppose I'm used to yellow lights lasting 6 seconds, and I know I can get through the light in 5 seconds. Now the city changes the yellow light length to 3 seconds, without warning. Do I have a choice then?

    Yellow light means "stop". I don't know why people think it means "hit the gas and try to get through the intersection real fast".. because it's not.

    Yellow. Means. Stop.

    There is an exception to the above statement, if you *cannot* stop before the intersection without breaking excessively hard, you are then permitted to continue at your current velocity through the intersection, this is referred to as the 'point of no return'. If you have not passed the point of no return you are required to stop. It's really that simple.

  23. Re:Warnings != errors on Wicked Cool PHP · · Score: 1

    You're confusing best practices and allowable practices.

    I code in PHP regularly and I don't even let notices slip by without correction. Yes, PHP lets any garbage code run, yes that's not a good thing; but that's why PHP is so popular, cause it's so damn easy to make a script.

    PHP trolls (I'm not accusing you of being one) never seem to get that.
