I'll bite. BF3 is not a competitor to MW4. It's a completely different game. MW4 seems like Quake the way it's played online. BF3 seems like... Battlefield. No other game has that feeling.
There's some magical feeling in BF3 like you're actually in a _war_, when you bring your entire team (32 or 64 players) rushing towards the enemy with tanks, helicopters, jeeps, snipers, infantry etc. MW4 (which I haven't played yet, I did play all the previous releases though) seems more like a console oriented death match clone.
The problems with the Sandforce controller has been fixed. But yeah OCZ were in the SSD game early and had a few flaky firmwares in the wild. All is good now though.
I'm not so interested in the FPS, but rather filesystem performance between different kernel versions and possible regressions (in any benchmark) so I know what kernel versions to avoid.
To begin with 99% of commercial games don't even have a Linux version, so there's nothing to sell to Linux gamers.
The same could be said of Macs. Part of what made Steam viable on the Mac was Valve porting a number of their games over to the Mac. And they could do it again for Linux if they wanted to...
Most Mac owners actually BUY software.

Per-application volume control is typically a sound system option; supported through Vista, Windows 7, Pulse Audio, OSS, and I assume OSX. Putting a volume control in the application itself would be redundant at this point.

I'm in a similar situation. Downloading the image via torrent now (shall seed), then the wipe of the OCZ Vertex 60GB begins.
If you read the article, you would know that many games requires going from 1080p to 720p because the PS3 can't push enough pixels in 3D to maintain 30 FPS in a 1080p resolution.
Not interested. What I want: rendering accelerated by the graphics card, in some way, better than (if) it is now. No more slow scrolling pages full of graphics.

Wow it looks almost exactly like Google Plus

Isn't that more of the Japanese culture showing through (extreme respectfor elders) rather than companies not hiring "old people"?
Indeed! But don't call me Shirley.

It doesn't matter if you can get hold of ALL of the data, if it's encrypted you're fucked. Nothing to see here, move along.
Really? I think Wikileaks is more scary to the government then a few mass murderers... (unfortunately)
What about the latest Chrome? 9.x
The link on the front page goes to http://news.slashdot.org/story/10/11/12/037241/Firefox-4-Regains-Speed-Mojo-With-No-2-Placing which doesn't work. The same URL without "news." works.
Not new, but not very common. I suppose that it's mainly the large harddrives that push for this to get out to the mainboards..
I've seen this in a few places, why is pf preferred over iptables? What can it do that iptables cannot? Or is it performance related? Security?
Cat /proc/cpuinfo & paste here? ;)
Is it "swastica-waving", though, or are they "just" racist?
I wonder how long it'll take before the 'cheap-o' airlines get wind of this and squash 50 people in the same space.
"in the same space"
Hah!
But it's not as shiny nor powerful!

Now the question is, should one get the HTC Desire (3.7" AMOLED) or the Sony Xperia X10 (4" TFT) ?

Because it's cheaper. Companies only exist to make money, really.
Whoever modded this troll is not in touch with reality.
Indeed, but what about us who run real OSes? ;)
Might be worth trying out on the W7 machine though!
