  2. It's not any sort of version string change on Geohot Brings Other OS Support To PS3 With Custom Firmware · · Score: 1

    From his blog:

    Here is a video demoing my "custom firmware". It's not any sort of version string change; I would have added something showing off the new features of 3.21, but oh wait, there aren't any.

  3. All media have agendas. on Wikileaks Releases Video of Journalist Killings · · Score: 1

    All media have agendas. If you can see past that, there isn't much of a problem. If you cant, you won't see the problem.

    What i see here is that the USA army wages war like terrorists do. They faught as guerillas, not discriminating the innocent. Terrorizing.

    No surprise here: EMP weapons are not discriminate enough.

    Get your ass back to 4chan you monkey.

  9. Re:Surprised? on "Install Other OS" Feature Removed From the PS3 · · Score: 1

    This console was advertized with this OtherOS feature. There are a lot of us who bought it because of this selling point.

    Its like Mazda handing you a dandy new car. One year later they sneak in you garage and remove either my wheels or the backseat. I dont care! I BOUGHT that backseat. But without wheels..

    See? Its forcing everyone to drop this feature, which they PAYED for. SIMPLE.

  10. Re:April fools on "Install Other OS" Feature Removed From the PS3 · · Score: 1

    Well turns out it wasnt some April fools joke.

    SONY DAMN YOU! You are corrupt! This was a sellingpoint feature for many! You are unthrustworthy and you better do some magic to make me buy anything labeled Sony.

  11. Apps Gmail lacks features: SHARED Inbox!? on Yale Delays Move To Gmail · · Score: 1

    Other reasons hold me off:
    The gmail solution in Apps doesn't allow for shared inboxes. Does anyone know a way around this??

    Say some public email address that 4 people (a team) has access to, without duplicating *shudder* emails 4 times and losing track.

  12. Re:I hope my school doesn't switch on Yale Delays Move To Gmail · · Score: 1

    Never heard of Blitzmail, good read thanks. But..

    Email IS instantaneous, especially these days. Unless you use a client that checks your mail with intervals or when triggered, like POP.

    If you didnt know - FYI:
    Gmail is a ajax enabled web client and shows updates almost immediately, although most times my Android phone beats it by a second or so.
    I guess this is because it doesnt preload the new email before alerting me to its presence.

    Humour basicly. Isn't funny when you make it permanent, so i hope to see those stupid fucking pictures only sporadic.

    Just entered that artist in Last.fm and i'm entertained now. Thanks Anonymous Coward!

  16. Re:Cell is a dead platform - IBM killed it.... on "Install Other OS" Feature Removed From the PS3 · · Score: 1

    I too was very excited and would be happy to see embedded Cells pop up. The mere possibilities!
    Thanks for sharing the non-consumer side of my story.

    Turns out it is hard to program / utilize this beast. I'm surprised routinely at what isn't fully implemented.
    (think about better crossbar multitasking,download and instal waiting, subsurface skin lighting in games, and few games beating PC graphics.)

    Right we shouldn't spoil this for the masses.

    Fun thing you mention that, i just said Alice was less cardboard 3D than Avatar..

  22. Alice was 2D-to-3D? Yet better 3D than avatar! on The Movie Studios' Big 3D Scam · · Score: 1

    I saw both (Avatar & Alice) in 3D and Alice had the best 3D effects.
    I'm surprised to read here was filmed in 2D as i would never guess.

    On a side note i saw Alice in IMAX 3d and saw Avatar with xpand glasses. I found IMAX 3D more pleasing.

    What bothered me in Avatar was that depth layers were visible in long objects along the z axis.
    The Alice movie didn't have such thing, and everything was smooth along the z axis.

  23. U buy X, u get X. I dont see whats wrong here. on BioShock 2's First DLC Already On Disc · · Score: 1

    I see people feel bad about this.

    I wanted to say i dont get that, and dont feel that way at all about this DLC X being stored on the disc Y.
    Don't act all surprised and sad now. Nothing new here. DLC is for making money, and its quite efficient this way.

    Rationale:
    its just some dusty bits named X that happened to be in your physical proximity because you once bought Y.
    Plus the fact you bought X and got X. No problem there, except incorrect feeling of already owning X in the first place.
    Wrong. You previously bought Y, not X.

    Pull yourself together trolls and whiners..
