  1. I find it amazing how... on First-Party PS3 Titles Announced · · Score: 1

    some people can bash on not-yet-existing/upcoming products from a competitor. Do you really think Sony's upcoming product can affect Microsoft's stock prices?

  2. One solution on Bill Gates on the 360 · · Score: 1
    Well, XBox1 was sold 22 million times worldwide. Even if they can keep up 4 million / 8 months, they would need 4 years to get over that number. (Doesn't sound "substantially higher" to me) Of course they will not be able to keep up the current rate of sales and will probably never reach even the XBox1 installed base with XBox360.
    Microsoft will have to drop Xbox360 prices substantially.
  3. Re:hmm, let me think... on Is HD Important To The Future of Gaming? · · Score: 1
    How many pc gamers with a half decent rig play at 720x576 (or local equivalent??), which is the maximum resolution of PAL
    Don't forget about the interlacing, it's 288 lines alternating to give you that splitting headache you deserve ;)

    Yes, HD is more than welcome for consoles.
  4. Modded Interesting? on Virgin Galactic to Build Space Port in New Mexico · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Apparently some people do not recognize sarcasm...
    Better leave the moderation of /. posts to chimps

  6. Re:Great OS, good timing, great features on Mac OS X Tiger Released and Analyzed · · Score: 1

    I guess that's what grandparent meant. How does it run on a Mac Mini? Has anyone tried it yet? Maybe it's a bit early yet ^^

  7. Re:Autovectorization on GCC 4.0 Preview · · Score: 3, Informative

    Autovectorization is for SIMD, not for SMP

  8. Re:Let me be the first to say... on Colorizing Images and Video by Scribbling · · Score: 4, Informative

    24 bits per pixel X 4 pixels = 72 bits

    In other news, mathematicians still agree that 24 times 4 is 96.

    YUV 4:2:0 saves 50% bits over YUV 4:4:4, more info on wikipedia (per usual) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_subsampling

  9. Re:Backing Away? on Apple Backing Away From FireWire · · Score: 1

    You wait until the previous DVD ejects itself...
    Such a "command DVD" (iCDVD) would automaticly eject after being read. It couldn't be easier to use, it just works(tm).

  10. Re:David R Foley on Arcade Kit Seller Applies for MAME Trademark [updated] · · Score: 1

    I am pretty sure that it's all just a big mistake. Looking at his art, he seems like a sensitive guy.

    Posting as AC to avoid karma whoring.

    Spoken like true coward.

  12. Re:Isn't.... on Study Points to Sixth Sense in Humans · · Score: 1

    I don't know... I guess if "the one" can see dead people, it is!

  14. Re:so this is real? on l33tspeak For Parents By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    omg d00d >> u == l4mor!11oneone O_o I noticed that, with the crowd I hang out with, "lol" has become a regular word. So instead of laughing at something mildly funny, we'd say "lol" instead. Note: I speak dutch natively, and 'lol' is a word in dutch, meaning 'fun'
