  1. SLI/Crossfire only support 1 monitor on State of Multi-Monitor Gaming? · · Score: 2, Informative

    When you have SLI of Crossfire modes enabled on those cards you can only have one display active. This is actually one of my big pet peeves about SLI. I have two Dell 2405 LCDs and I have to constantly switch SLI off/on to get the second one to work when not gaming.

  2. Re:Was it me? on RIAA Files 477 New Filesharing Lawsuits · · Score: 1

    They go after people that are sharing the songs, not people that have just downloaded it.

  3. Penn and Teller on City Officials Almost Ban Foam Cups · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Penn and Teller did this joke on their Showtime series "Bullshit". They went to an environmental rally in D.C. and had someone try to get people to sign a petition to ban "Dihydrogen Monoxide". She got hundreds of signatures, even from the person that organized the event.

    Agreed. I wish the company I work for had that level of control!

  5. Re:To hell with special effects. on Cubism For CG And Movies · · Score: 1

    "Actually, after a few viewings, Matrix Reloaded stands up very well to a literature-type analysis. I know quite a few people that hated the movie because they simply didn't understand it."

    There are two words why Matrix Reloaded sucked: Keanu's ass.

    (Thanks to Maddox for the ultimate end to all MR-related conversations...)

  6. A waste of effort on Star Wars Kid & Episode III? · · Score: 1
    Lucasfilm, who make the Star Wars films, told Newsround: "Obviously there has been a tremendous show of support for Ghyslain with tens of thousands of fans rallying around him. "However, we are deeply saddened by the current situation and any difficulties this unwanted publicity might be causing him and his family."
    Sounds like a polite way of saying "No way in hell".

    Just checked and spam is most definitely against their AUP. Taken from their AUP page: Unsolicited Email (Spam) Unsolicited commercial advertisements (spam) are not allowed in e-mail, and will likely result in account cancellation. C I Host takes a zero-tolerance approach to spam originating from our servers or for spam advertising of domains hosted on our servers. The following activities are not allowed: Unsolicited bulk or commercial messages ("spam"). This includes, but is not limited to, bulk mailing of commercial advertising, informational announcements, charity requests, petitions for signatures, and political or religious tracts. Such messages may only be sent to those who have explicitly requested it from your domain. Forging, altering or removing electronic mail headers is prohibited. Any domain sending stealth spam will be terminated without warning and without refund. Sending numerous copies of the same or substantially similar message with the intent to disrupt a server or account ("mail bombing"). Spamming Newsgroups: Commercial advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet discussion groups and on most e-mail mailing lists. Inappropriate posting may result in account cancellation. See the newsgroup or mailing list's charter for whether advertising is allowed or not. "Spamming," or sending a message to many different off-topic newsgroups, is particularly unethical and will be treated as such. Mail may not be used to harass or intimidate others. Harassment, whether through language, frequency of messages, or size of messages, is prohibited. Sending a single unwelcome message may be considered harassment. If a recipient asks to stop receiving e-mail, you must not send that person any further messages. Providing spamware (software used to send bulk email or software used to harvest email addresses) or links to sites providing spamware is strictly prohibited and subject to demand for removal or account cancellation. Note: If you use the services of another provider (including but not limited to the use of address lists obtained from a third party vendor or provider) to promote a web site hosted by or through C I Host (spamvertising), then the provisions of the above Policy shall apply as if the spam were sent through our servers. Penalty: Depending on the severity of your SPAMMING, C I Host reserves the right to charge you between $1.00 - $100.00 PER SPAM sent through our network. Your web site content will also be confiscated and it will be NEVER returned to you.

  8. Wierd.. on AOL Sued For Over-Zealous Blocking · · Score: 1

    CI Host has spammers? I seem to recall it's against their AUP. I've got a couple sites hosted there (and have been there for a couple years now), never had a problem with them as some have said.
