Your not a geek. probably never will be. And if these things pisses you off so much, go pick your own name for whatever sub culture you come from. You sound more like an [wannabe?] i.t. professional to me...
Just because you: "like to play on [your] computer" dosen't make you (or your friends) a geek either.
Yeah but after a while the decay in sound level/quality is magnified over and over again, so the effect only lasts a very very sort time. Not infinitly, other wise we'd have a perpetual motion system...
...to the way it used to be? I'm 15, and spend most of my time discussing physics/philosophy on irc. I consider that my community, and i love it. But now and then I come accross one of those telnet bbs like systems, or I read about them in *.txt. They seem so much more complex than what we now have, like the ruins of a long dead civilization. And i ask myself: "self, did you miss all the fun?". What i'd like to know is if those of you who've lived thru the development of all this prefer or dislike the 'modern' community relative to the BBS community?
we only use about %10 of our brain though. a computer running a good os can utilize allot more of what it's got. and the os can always be updated with greater ease. i guess the problem is that most people never need more that %10. imagine using a chip in your brain to focus cerebral development to the field of your choice. then again, having a powerful unit for processing hooked up to your motherboard (brain) means little if you can interact with it at great speeds. once again we're limited by our inferior architecture.
Yeah, game realism would be incredible. But imagine what we could do if QC-ing was integrated into our brain! We'd be god like, in that processing information would go far beyond our current (pathetic) rate.
EVERYTHING would change, new challenges and new goals would replace the old ones.
Forget game realism, the focus would shift to mathematical computing for fun.

I'm truly pisses off by your comment.

because the world would be a very boring place if we only did what was safe.
and because the pay off would be incredible.
