  1. Dear Photodiary on Photoblog Revolution · · Score: 1
    Dear Photodiary,

    Today I pulled my ass apart very wide indeed. I hope nobody sees it and posts it on the Internet!

  2. Hey! Maybe they're trying to rig the result... on Electoral-vote.com Under Heavy Load; Attack? · · Score: 0, Troll

    ...again.

  3. Re:My only chance on /. to make a Chester Alan Art on Halloween Pumpkin Carving · · Score: 2, Funny

    All the jokes are automatically explained to subscribers 10 minutes before anyone else finds them funny.

  4. Suspect some performance selection, /.ers on SLI Performance Reviewed at Anandtech · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They are showing ~66 fps on doom3 at 1600x1200 with 4xAA turned on

    Were there any monsters on screen at the time? Was there any discarge of firearms? In my Doom 3 experience, you could go for a good 10 minutes with nothing worth shooting at - this would surely throw the fps up?

    Oh no! A teleporting cyberdemon! No wait, it's just doing the Doom 3 stutter-shuffle.

  5. Re:Boooooooring! on Bioware to Open Online Store for Digital Content · · Score: 1

    On a side note, Baldur's Gate III will never happen.

    Yeah, I guess you're right. I suppose I'll go play Doom III now.

    I can't start on Zelda when I haven't finished Photoshop!

  8. Boooooooring! on Bioware to Open Online Store for Digital Content · · Score: 0, Troll

    Until they start making Baldur's Gate III, I'm not interested and neither is my Internet. You see, Neverwinter Nights' "One Boy Wonder" approach to roleplaying gets tedious in about half an hour.

    Bring back the 2D goodness!

  9. Re:Hubble? Bah! on Telescope Will Have Images 10X Sharper Than Hubble · · Score: 1

    After extensive research, I can now reply that your use of the term 'gravitational redshifts' does indeed imply your lack of understanding of the unpopular subject of intrinsic redshifts. My incomprehension was therefore an expected response rather than an expression of ignorance.

    So there. :P

  10. Completely pointless on Hypo-Allergenic Cats Now Available for Pre-Order · · Score: 1

    Why pay thousands when you can just shave Mr Bigglesworth!

  11. Re:Hubble? Bah! on Telescope Will Have Images 10X Sharper Than Hubble · · Score: 1

    Then nothing changes. Gravitational redshifts and high intrinsic velocities for individual galaxies are expected and have both been observed.

    Gravitational redshifts? You lost me. :(

  13. Re:Hubble? Bah! on Telescope Will Have Images 10X Sharper Than Hubble · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Intrinsic redshifts explain the anomalous association of high-redshift QSOs with galaxies of much lower redshifts. Space expansion was demonstrated pretty conclusively by observations a few years ago IIRC - QSS theory doesn't have a problem with this. However, Occam's razor would like to talk to the practice of putting QSOs at cosmological distances when they have been demonstrated by Arp to be associated with galaxies of much, much lower redshifts.

    It always amazes me that otherwise sound scientists start talking about 'belief' whenever certain concepts are mentioned (eg. evolution and big bang theory). There is no need to believe in anything - you can just take a through a telescope (or microscope) and have a look.

    The real bugger is that when you let intrinsic redshifts out of the bag (ie. that you could be observing them as a phenomenon, not on the basis of a theoretical model), several popular cosmological ideas lose a lot of credibility. Fortunately, the increasing accuracy of observational evidence will inevitably revise currently accepted models.

  14. Hubble? Bah! on Telescope Will Have Images 10X Sharper Than Hubble · · Score: 1

    Hubble's famous law is nothing but a self-referencing fraud and paved the way to the most embarrasing theory since heliocentricity. Intrinsic redshifts are here - long live the steady state revolution!

    I hear the pipeline on the P5 is going to be so long that Halliburton want to license it for reconstruction work in Iraq.

    If this continues, the XBox project may even turn some kind of a profit instead of being a mega-million pound loss from start to finish.

  23. Bizarre 'OS A on platform B' craze on Mac OS X Running On Xbox · · Score: 1

    What is it with these people? I'm sure that in a couple of months, someone will have installed linux on a tree or something. I'm all in favour of pushing the boundaries of technology but a Mac that played XBox games would be a hell of a lot more useful than an XBox with stripey window bars.

    Quake III: 1999/12/21
    That's a year and a half between 1 and 2. Two years between 2 and 3. So if my math holds out, it will be two and a half years before Quake IV is released.


    Doom I : 1993/12/10
    Doom II : 1994/10/10
    Doom III: Doh!
