I have to wonder, what do the governments think they have to accomplish by removing free speech? Do they really think that it will let them hold on to more power? I mean, with increasing freedom of religion you see an increase of lack of religion (atheism, agnosticism, etc). Give enough people unrestricted freedoms and they will tend not to use it, tighten down those freedoms and you have a large amount of people wanting to test every limit of it.
Less people are into religion because it's become pretty obvious that they are man made and not real.
Sure, i could of just bought 1, but I didn't. I bought a 1920x1200 lcd monitor.
I like playing with everything maxed out, (including aa) with 60 fps.
only a couple of games dips below 60 fps, like crysis and NFS Undercover.
Could of I gone with a smaller lcd and one card and still have a great gaming experience?
Yep, I could of. but i didn't.
so you that don't do sli, or get sli, or don't game, or are just stupid, understand this: Don't hate because you don't have sli, can't afford sli, don't game, or just don't understand what i'm saying.
Oh, just so ya know, 1 card I get about 23fps per sec in crysis, with it dropping into the teens a bit. I get about 43ish average with 2 cards. Not quite double the performance, but close.
Seriously, i've seen more whining and misinformation about sli from peeps that don't have it.
Lots of smart gamers are buying the cheaper cards for sli and getting very acceptable performance for gaming. Not to mention that thru cuda you have access to some nice processing power for various apps. Alot of people buy cards to sli for folding farms.
Sli is not BS tech, it's decent technology that does what it claims.
Of course, my experience has been great with my setup, but it is like a heater. Dual cards hitting 150+F each, cpu gets up to 125F. I do have a better case I have to move it to, since summer is starting.
i'm tired of being stereotyped. Yes, I am a pothead, a stoner, a user of maryj.
You will never see any posts saying I'm hungry, Have you got any cookies, or the ever lame, cartoons are cool.
You find my posts either try to add some wit (which I admit, being stoned, probably isn't that funny to anyone else), or heaven forbid, actually trying to add some info or facts into a convo.
In fact, even though I'm baked out of my mind, I managed to keep on track with whatever i'm trying to say. (not sure yet, really stoned).
But please, drop the lame stoner stereotypes. Or i will have to start stereotyping peeps like you.
no, seriously wasting money preserving something like that is stupid.
Sure, maybe if back in the day they took an imprint of it or something, but now?
While I'm all up for remembering and learning from history, I'm am not up for saving very little piece of it. Sheesh, i mean, seriously, what good is it?
oh yes, a motion detector is going to magicly make the consoles last longer.
um, how about the high cost to make the consoles? Or the longer development time for games?
Or how about when everyone in the USA gets FIOS (even though comcast is trying to keep us copper connected), and we actually have some decent latencies, gaming can end up being played on big ass servers somewhere and streamed to your console?
The current generation of consoles are probably going to be the last because they are too expensive.
It's because they look at how huge the universe is, how much energy is in it, how long it's all been around, how long it will most likely continue to be around, then truly comprehend how small, short-lived, and insignificant they are in the grand scheme of things.
That kind of realization will humble anyone, no matter how smart they are.
Never understood this. How does that make me feel small?
Am I supposed to be scared because someday i'm going to die?
Should I feel stupid because I don't know everything?
Nope, I just take it in stride. It's like giving up living because you realise there isn't really point in life ('cept for the lulz).
Anyways, if there's one thing history has taught me is this: Whatever "the educated" peeps of today think is how crap is, someone will prove them wrong later.
"It's even more glaring given that Doctor Who has historically been a show so foreign to sex that fandom has long speculated that the main character's species reproduces asexually."
Really? when the female timelords can regenerate their looks at anytime? I would think that they would be having lots of sex.
Personnally, i thought a good show would be about the son/daughter of Dr Who & Romana, with a K9 unit, searching the cosmos for his lost father. And of course, in the dr's old unreliable tardis that takes him/her everywhere but where they need to go.
of course, the Rani & the Master would of had some offsprings so we can have some enemys (school chum rivals or something).
But now, I guess Gallifry is no more (like that matters to a timelord, space & time, in all) so school is no more.
dang, i still haven't watched those new dr who eps i downloaded. watched the first 4 or 5, just haven't taken the time yet for the others.
twitter, you are an idiot. Virutal Desktops isn't new, and isn't only on 1 OS. Just because you have a crappy laptop doesn't mean the rest of the intel world (x86) is like that.
I know, you want to sound like your the big man (woman) here and all. nice try, but not even close.
You stupid people that don't know shit about computers, but act like you do just crack me the fuck up.
later
I will continue using whichever computer of mine I want, with fast boot ups, because I know how to set up the bios and OS so I don't have slow booting times. Very easy to do. If you don't understand it, then do a google search (or whatever search engine you like) for, well, tell you what, I will let you figure that one out, as I could care less about your slow boot times. Just like spyware, adware, viruses. You won't find it on my machines. Why? Because I actually take the time to understand how it works and what I can do to keep my machine clean and fast.
Slashdot Mirror
wait, i'm dangerous now?
since when did slashdot peeps care about the facts?
Personally, I applaud china for dealing with their population problem!
okay, here's a little computer lesson, for free.
In the Bios you can set which harddrive is first to boot off of.
If drive 1 is first, and you install the OS on drive 2, it's going to put a bootloader on drive 1.
Why? Because thats how your system is setup, and when you boot up, it checks bios, sees it needs to go to disk 1.
If you do NOT want it to do that, you go into bios and tell it to boot of the Drive 2.
is that stupid? No, you are.
Am i being harsh? nope, just tired of sfb's like you not knowing shit and bitching. seriously, learn something about what your bitching about.
um, dude, i hate to say this, but the fault is yours.
MS didn't assume anything, you did.
I have Windows 7 on a second disk and it didn't install a 100mb parition on the first disk.
Why? Because i'm not a stupid git who doesn't know shit about computers and let any installer run "express".
Your best bet is to stop using computers, because they are obviously smarter then you.

but otherwise I agree with what your saying.
sweet, now on 4chan (and 12chan) not only will CP be hidden in a torrent, but a torrent will be hidden in CP...
life is good
screenshots or it didn't happen.
First off, cybersquatting isn't new at all. Hasn't been an upsurge.
second, FreeLegoPorn.com wasn't cybersquatting. It's an artistic website creatively using lego's to make porn.
This story should be about how Freelegoporn got fucked over by they name register.
Word, my Sega Dreamcast runs WindowsCE, so I don't want my backwards capabilities to be hurt.
It has a modem, i'm sure i can use it as a cell phone.
... that we got some good weed here in Seattle.

I have 2x285 in sli.

Seriously, it would probably end all strife and war. Well, maybe not, but would still be cool...

I read somewhere that most people can't truely recall what they read.
I also read somewhere that statistics are made up.
I poop therefor I exist!
Cool, a local chick.
wait, you my lawyer?
Maybe someone should point out the lack of video games didn't keep the Germans from oppressing most of europe during the first half of the 1900's.
Ya, blame your lack of amusement on your mom.

Not very hard to do, not at all.
