I suppose a sufficiently weird decoder could drop blocks in a regular pattern and interpolate the results. Or even do something more stupid, like dropping a row of luma blocks in a field (leaving the chroma, and remaining luma. Am I swapping luma/chroma here?)
I think you will find those of a technical bent take quotation marks a bit more literally than you English majors. Quotes signify that the contents within is exact and unmodified. Putting your punctuation inside them for the sake of some antiquated rule invalidates this.
You might as well do it like this: "merkins[.]"
(which makes you look like an even more massive tool...)
Most DVD players have some magical incantation that gets them to skip. Mine involves yanking the power cord while it is playing, then when it goes to play back from the current location, hitting stop before it actually starts.... THEN the root menu button will actually pop up the root menu. I guess because it hasn't seen the PUO bits yet at that point?
I think you should man up and tell your boss that no, he is NOT correct. I think any given person is usually in a better position to know what distracts them.
1. Passive... this is what MOST people do when they listen to music as they do things. 2. Active... this is where you pay active attention to the music.
The two people who have killmails showing their loss of a battleship each... with my tiny little T1 frigate tagged on it.
I love EVE. Yea, driving without bumpers, rails, seatbelts, airbags, , rollcages, and ONSTAR is dangerous. But it's a lot more fun than sitting on a low-speed monorail.... at least if you keep it in perspective. Internet spaceships is not serious business.
er, to clarify since i bring up the GPL driver... I'm talking about Windows primarily, but used that as an example of why I don't think it is entirely the driver's fault.
I've had a few (very minor, very few) niggles on Linux, but not in a long while (at least a year now).
My current hardware is a 9800 GTX+. I can't remember the vendor, though. Either PNY or BFG... fairly certain it's PNY.
I've been using nVidia hardware since the GeForce 2.
I've had zero problems, and the models I buy have been one of "PNY" "OCZ" and "BFG"
The 3-letter acronym is a coincidence, I have to say I never went for a particular brand but went for what I was looking for at a sale price at the given time.
Inversely, whenever I have tried ATI, I've had nothing but issues. You can blame drivers, but I even have issues using the GPL 2D driver. I personally think ATI graphics hardware just plain sucks, but remember that is just an opinion backed by anecdotal evidence.

No, I didn't. I'll have to see if I can find a ROM laying around to check that out, I could have tormented my sister so much with that!
Yea, because Linux and Ubuntu are both the same word.
Linux is not bloated. Some distros may be, but that doesn't mean shit.
Wait, what?
Goddammit stop calling it MW2!
You think counterstrike-esque, I think bipedal fusion powered tanks beating the shit out of each other.
Get off my lawn!
That's why they call them "faiths" - because to really believe in one, you have to have faith in it.
Yea, he's a dead body. Unfortunately you can't see him, because they had to cut the dead bodies to pass classification in Australia.
Disclaimer: this is a joke, not actual nationalistic xenophobia or anything. I really hope you didn't need this disclaimer to realize this.
From my understanding, the lack of an F18+ rating is entirely the fault of a single legislator.

you should compare h.264 to mpeg-2...
Big difference in quality and bitrate, both leaning heavily in h.264's favor.
It still doesn't make any sense.

Yea, but I bet you get wobble and snow and all sorts of other annoying shit.
And the framerate is still horrible. I wish NTSC would go away. (this last bit has nothing to do with film vs digital()
Let's not forget that GPL is not the only FOSS license out there - leaving aside all the issues with things being GPL already.
Please go back and read #30415338 again.
Here, I'll make it easy for you:

There are two ways to listen to music.
1. Passive ... this is what MOST people do when they listen to music as they do things. ... this is where you pay active attention to the music.
2. Active
You know what is hilarious?

jDoom is old-n-busted.
life jackets, bumpers, and seatbelts?
As well... how long have various players of EVE been around?
The game has staying power. I can only handle WoW for a month or two at a time.
Amusement Park vs Sandbox
Guess which one gets old fast?

For the same reason one buys "low fat" food that has 300% the sodium content.
The answer? People are idiots.
