the thing that got me was the sound i have a realy nice sound system.. and the EAX was amazing and god the screams that seemed to be coming from the other room of my house scared the shit out of me.. it made me shiver many times.. (i don't play it at night)
i have played it on a freinds computer with normal suround sound.. it isn't the same..
only with quality audio do you realy get that i am scared as shit feeling
ahhh the memories.. the only two fights i have ever been in have kept me out of many more.
one "put a kid's head through the locker in Junior high" then i sat down and kept doing my work (got sent home for one day for being unstable)
the second was two years later.. kidd (much larger than me) started beating on me and wouldn't stop (i don't fight back with fists) when he wouldn't stop i grabed his head and ran his face down a chainlink fence.. sliced his face all open and they called the EMS.. while i walked to class.. he didn't tell them who did it and was out for 3 months and when he got back he never came near me agian.
and like wise no one ever bothered me. one thing i was taught.. if you have no choice but to fight you better not lose and the quicker you end it the better chance you have to win.
self defence is something that everyone should know. but like wise everyone should know how to handel them selves and know when the best and only time to react is.
I saw that and thoguht about being the guy in GTA getting health back (you know how) at my freinds all lesbo sims house - yea that would be kinda weird
I think the file size alone will prevent "e-mail" ing the film to anyone..
if i got a full length movie sent via e-mail to me and the mail server accepted it i would first fix the mail server then beat the person who sent it to me
you realy should upgrade.. i have a 8088 laptop on my desk right now and it can at least do math.. ayyyyyeeee for the 2.3Mhz cpu.. (i love that laptop it just sits there and looks neet)
so are you saying that it is better to run two single cps systems than one dual cpu system for a web/db
lets look at this
take old hardware 2x p3 1g systems or 1 p3 2x1g system
Setup one user hits web server cpu takes request sends db request to pci bus to the nic over the wire to second computers nic to it's pci bus to it's cpu to the pci bus to the hdd to the ram to the cpu to the pci bus to the nic over the wire to the first cpu's nic to its bus to the ram then the cpu (because this isn't a multi threaded web server it does one thing at a time) the cpu goes to the pci bus to the hdd gets page content to the ram to the cpu to mix and match to the pci bus to the nic and out to the user
now with dual cpus.
request comes in goes from the nic to the pci bus to the cpu splits one to the web server and one to the db both to the pci bus to the hdd requesting data (drive gets data in fifo and sends to ram) from ram db returns data to to the web cpu via pci bus it mix and matchs and sends finished data to the pci bus to the nic and out to the user..
seems alot simplier to me and sure you put more load on the hdd but honestly.. your hdd can do 35MB/sec constant if you have a single dual cpu system that is serving more than 35MB/sec over the wire or you don't have enough ram for your box to cache the pages/most used part of the db.. you have far more problems than not understanding single vs. dual cpu systems when it comes to a server environment
This is why you set CPU affinitys and prevent them from switching.. if your going to use multi cpu systems for diticated tasks for each cpu then you need to bind them to their respective cpus..
i do it all the time.. even have a nice little config wraper that gets them all set right on boot..
only thing that bothers me is that the impact at mach 7 with rock is going to vaporize most of the unit if not all of it..
it would make alot more sence to fire this thing into the ocean where it more than likly could be recovered mostly intact if it has an impact absorber on the front of it to take the force of breaking the surface tension of the water.
kinda like doing balistics.. you shoot the gun into water not rock so that you have something when your done to look at.
it isn't that i don't like their idea of shooting it down.. infact it makes sence.. it is the into the ground and not into the ocean that seems stupid to me.
trust me i got married alittle over a year ago.. since then.. i have gamed about 60 hours total.. (i know because bf2 tells me how much i have played:)
you are correct that it will not last,, that is if you want to keep the wife, else game on and when she leaves jsut let her have the car and you keep the computer
Not just retirement.. but you also have to think.. we grow up.. i don't play as many games as i did 10 years ago. but i still do play a few times a week. we are the children of yesterday and the adults of today, so yes we do like to play games.
ther are still companies that compensate their people well and more as time goes on.
these are typicaly small to mid private companies.
the only proplem is that there is a limit to what they can do, and a limit for how far you can go. Not because they are holding you down but that the company jsut doesn't need anything more nor could it sustain it>
that is fine for spore infact that would be one of the best ideas..
expecialy if they make it online where everyone starts out at the same time in one place.. then as people join they have to grow in the world that the comunity has created (for online sakes only)

absoulty nothing.. nothing at all except advertizing.
and personaly i thought the game sucked compared to Doom 3 (just shows the more time you put into something the better it is)
(duke nukem forever is going to be killer
One of the reasons is the bloating of mail when transfered via smtp
any binary attachments get rencoded into base 64 which can cause them to grow up to 4x in size when going over the wire.
it realy hurts going over the wire

it is the only logical way of using multi cpus

the difrence is the people that i game with are all friends that have moved away and that i have known for 15+ years..
i have known her for around 9 years been dating for 6 and maried for 1 year..
some times i want to play games with old freinds and she doesn't see the point.. so she reads a book
First think i do is dumb it down and make it look as simple and old as posiable.

can't beat that now can you.

and how exactly are they going to handel gettign a phone number for every yahoo account.?? so that the landlines can call?
this is one of the things that perplexes me almost as much as when messing networks combine, how do they handel nic conflic/resolution
this isnt' always true..
