Actually I think Minecraft has excellent graphics, the pixel art is very well done. That's all it targets anyway, not realism or high-poly models. The sound deparment...well, it's mostly pretty good, but some of the monster grunts have somewhat "homebrew" characteristics to them.:)
I have for a long time wanted to see something like this in the network intrusion scene, instead of the usual "if one is still stupid enough to be running that vulnerable system, he deserves to be fucked".
I've always wanted a silly interface for virtual machines, where I can walk in a 3D game and there's computers on the table which are showing the picture of the actual virtual machines running on my computer.
If he suspects the code has a vulnerabitlity, he doesn't want it copied.
It's funny how open source is always bragged as being the antidote against vulnerabilities and backdoors (as "anyone can verify it"), but here we still are worrying about TrueCrypt code possibly containing something vulnerable.
That is precisely what I was talking about. You are even willing to go to the lengths of calling me an "epic dumbfuck" because you are so immersed to defending the hive mind.
You couldn't have said it better. People swear now how they will boycott Kingston and PNY, but in a couple of weeks this issue will be completely forgotten.
I've been more than happy with everything else I've bought that's been USB3. I'm not looking for the last 20% of speed possible, just generic USB3 speeds.
You have to buy the premium stuff if you really want the high speeds. In my experience almost all USB sticks are in the 10MB/s to 15MB/s range, which is not enough to even saturate the USB2 bus (60MB/s).
This. I avoid DRM every time when a non-DRM alternative is available (such as using GOG instead of Steam), but accepting some non-intrusive DRM just makes life much more practical. Of course on the other end there are companies like Electronic Arts who put too much DRM in their games which ruins the product to some extent.
Unlike bit flips from radiation, RAM defects aren't randomly spread over the entire address space. Often the defect is only in a few bits or even in just one bit, and then it isn't necessarily something simple, like a stuck bit (always 0 or 1). I once owned a DIMM with just one defective bit which failed just one of Memtest's patterns, and then only about 50% of the time. That DIMM caused file corruption similar to that described in the story. The machine was rock solid otherwise. Apparently the OS never used that part of the physical address space for vital OS structures.
As a nifty little trick, if you know the exact memory address of that bit, you can use the Linux kernel "badram" boot parameter to exclude that location.:)
Lost in the obscurity? Just to get the facts straight, back in the day Linux was initially called "Freax". Ari Lemmke provided some FTP space for Linus and he tongue-in-cheek created a directory called "linux". There is nothing ambiguous about the background of the name.

The Unity engine is written C++. Unity uses C# as the interfacing language.

Maybe these askers somehow need other people to confirm their choices to make them feel warm and cozy.

It should actually be "He says that this it ain't no cool beanz".
Ah, you mean the engine of a Tesla car! Well, I guess I'm gonna hop behind the wheel and go searching people who might know who this Elon Musk guy is.
Could be some kind of shader code which typically ships uncompiled.

Many customers know what USB3 is, but don't have the capabilities to do proper benchmarking to check if the speeds are in the same ballpark at all.

I have also found the Corsair logo to be eye-pleasing.
The thermal design gets really tricky...

Do you really believe that there are actual Microsoft shills in Slashdot?
Ah, interesting. Didn't know that part. :)
The next version would be 7. There is no rule that it would jump in spaces of two. :)

So, what was your fucking point?
He was just thinking back the ole times.
Agree. Apple is in the market of creating premium products and thus its creations should also be scrutinized rigorously.

Are you trolling, or ignorant? There's no third way
Wouldn't "shill" be the classic third option?
I see. You are correct, that would indeed mean that you cannot get full graphics acceleration in Office 2013, as the GMA950 is only DX9-compatible.
