Oh no! Children may use conventional tools, rather than futuristic things that are not in production yet, and probably won't be for 10+ years! When will we ever learn?
Well, it means rather than the whole load going through one large pipe, a large number of smaller pipes can participate at once, distributing the load, and increasing the limit on bandwidth to that of the client, rather than just having a large pipe serve a large number of clients through pre-emptive multitasking.
There are two possibilities: Either for whatever reason, everyone starts to hate Valve and Steam. Valve goes bankrupt, no one buys them out. No more legal department, and cracks are distributed. The other case, Valve falls apart, but someone buys at least steam off of them. Either they charge for access, or use the existing brand recognition to keep the service operating. Either way, I doubt very much that Steam is going away any time soon, and if it does, I doubt anyone will be there to protect the source code from crackers.
Did I say I had anything against Klingons? No. What I do have a problem with is these fakers who write some language and PASS IT OFF as the real Klingon language, so they can scam Star Trek fans out of even more money for dictionaries and... then again, that is kind of cool, in an L. Ron Hubbard kind of way.
Actually, the entire article was written just so you would read the summary and say that, as a demonstration of post-structuralist patterns of deterministic choice. Way to go, Captain Suggestable.
Post-Modernism has a perfectly clear definition that makes perfect sense. It is, however, too stupid for any words in any language, except maybe Klingon.
I think there are a few more. Not sure if mine was first or not. Just goes to show how few people read the article. As a not very social physics major, the summary interested me enough to read the article.
I think we are coming to a golden age of stealth goatses.
I mainly meant that as a joke. I am good at math, but I am bad at assignments. On my last test, I got 7/31 because I did not study enough, and a large part of the test was based on memorization (or I could just suck).
I think the original study was haunted or something. Or just too obvious to work out right.
A) Don't teach students math, they won't learn math. B) Too much emphasis on fun won't teach math. C) Nearly no one likes math. D) Students are happy to have high marks, and confident on tests they know they will pass.
I think it is actually averaged over a nation, so that the countries with the happiest overall student body are ranked most happy. Because most everyone hates math, the courses that are easiest will have the overall happiest and most confident students, who will choke on standardized exams.
All the article says is that students who are less confident and less happy with math are more likely to do well, in relation to how they feel about it, and how it is taught. Even the article seems to be misreading what it seems the study says. Sounds to me that harder, more complete math classes lead to better math skills.
I would think that the devs will do no such things, but their higher ups in PR, to make the games seem more mature, would not be as likely to have the developers make the games for the Wii. However, everyone remembers Goldeneye 64. I mean, even I remember it, and I have never owned a console. I think the main thing, as everyone says, is Nintendo's licensing.
Personally I would want (if I could afford it) a PS3. It's not just about the graphics. It's about Linux, a hard drive on the "cheap" model, GTA IV, the cell processor, a large capacity optical drive, and yeah, what look to be the best graphics of any of the systems.
I read the title for the article, and I thought "I wonder if this is Zonk's article." Turned out it was, so of course the Wii's 39 games mean more than the PS3's 41. Also, the Xbox360 has been available for what, a year? I would expect a few exclusive games by now. Looks to me like Sony will have the most games (as they have in the last two generations, if I recall correctly) followed by Microsoft and Nintendo. Still, who knows, with the PS3's high price tag, more game companies might end up going to Xbox360, even without a guarenteed hard drive and small optical drive.
If you want to mod me troll, please, read the summary and tell me that 41 > 39 isn't flaimbait.
It does seem ridiculous that Xbox 360 uses a DVD player rather than something of a higher capacity. By the end of the 4 year cycle, that is going to seem really small...

All that the next gen has to offer is stupid motion sensing controllers. Who really cares? Oh, wait, your sig...
I heard on a feedcast that blogodome outlets are soon going to release a Vorbcast of it on the world-wide-intertubes tonight.
With apologies to xkcd.com
I guess heaven has a lot of RAM...

What about eight? That is true ultimate power.
Six words to show skill? Please.

Now, "Take it off!" will be replaced with "I'd hack that!"
Actually, in Paris Hilton's head, there is thermodynamic equilibrium between the system and its surroundings.

It dosen't seem too complex, but perhaps it is.
I think I disagree. I am bad with people, good with math (generally), yet most of my assignments are messy, illogical, and incomplete.

That's both genders, mind you.
