From the pic, V-sync was off, most likely AA and MFAA too. Still impressive, considering now, the max that DX10/10.1 series cards can handle is 2 outputs per card.
However, the software world is still far behind. Not a lot of games use DX 10, much less 10.1, and I haven't heard of any planned games to utilize DX 11. I'm still waiting for more games to be multi-threaded and graphics to utilize ray tracing. Not sure if it's possible to raster and ray trace...
The limiting factor is bus speed. RAM has hit a proverbial ceiling because of bus speed. I have a 2x4 PC28500 @800MHz and compared it @1066MHz, but the CPU can only handle 2 DIMMs full @1066. The memory bus throttle shows a small increase in RAM performance but is negligible.
DDR3 is the same, you can run it at higher MHz but bus speed is limiting what you can do.
The parent may be under the impression that the Peace Prize is the only Nobel Prize. I only say this because back when I was in high school I was baffled by the stupidity of a teacher who thought the exact same thing. A science teacher no less.
Because their goal is copyright reform, as being backed by the Piratpartiet. One country's laws are not applicable across the globe, and their aim was to openly mock oppressive copyright claims of other governments in order to bring attention to those ridiculous claims. It looks like they succeeded, however, like the RIAA, big money is backing these lucrative "businesses" of copyright.
Their goal is reform and they served as martyrs to bring global attention to it.
Exhibit A has some ridiculous items in it, statements from the roommate:
he has "fixed" computers so that they cannot be scanned by any system for detection of illegal downloads and illegal internet use, "jail breaks" cell phones, possibly stolen ones, for people so that the phones can be used on networks other than they are meant for and downloaded program software against the licensing agreement for free.
minus the cracked software, the other stuff is ludicrous.
..since his problems with Mr. Calixte his brand new computer has crashed and he suspects that Mr. Calixte is responsible....(he has the password cause he set it up for him)...The computer has been looked at by several experts and none of them can resolve the problem.
The search warrant also specified that firewalls and printers could be seized...firewalls?
Update: someone claims to have been responsible for this by using a XSS to remove tags and force accounts to tag books as innappropriate. So if it is true, Amazon isn't to blame here.
Back in the day when people actually made funny games, at one point where no would would think to go it prompts you to insert three floppies successively, three floppies which don't exist. Any game whose users would find that hilarious is great in my book. I guess the same can be said for that entire series.
Why are ISPs trying to turn into cell carriers (for ones which aren't already) and squeeze every last penny from consumers. On one side, at least someone is honestly selling what they can provide, but at ridiculous pricing tiers. I can easily imagine them trying to charge for certain ports, and applications. One more reason to donate to the EFF If I hadn't lost^H^H^H^H ever had faith in the FCC I'd wish they would do something about this debacle before it gets really out of hand. Wait, what am I talking about? That happened long ago. I'd like to see something positive happen with their latest proposal though.
is it taking editors the 2nd time around to post these stories. /rant
While it may not be time to panic, there are some other startling signs
Measurements by the Ulysses spacecraft reveal a 20 percent drop in solar wind pressure since the mid-1990sâ"the lowest point since such measurements began in the 1960s.
Careful measurements by several NASA spacecraft have also shown that the sun's brightness has dimmed by 0.02 percent at visible wavelengths and a whopping 6 percent at extreme UV wavelengths since the solar minimum of 1996.
Finally, radio telescopes are recording the dimmest "radio sun" since 1955.
At this point there's nothing really we can do, but it may need an explanation as to why it has hit such a low, and when the below-average maximum will occur (supposedly in 2012).
Your comparison isn't a good one. It would be like losing your vision for 40 minutes and wandering around with deep holes around for you to fall in. Once you're in those holes it's a fair chance you won't survive unless someone helps you out. Anything that is used for prolonged periods (16 hours) is going to have detrimental effects on the mammals' methods of navigation. Why is it such a terrible crime that the Navy consider what damage it does to its surroundings? Not implying you, it's just their stance is TeRRorisM! our actions can't be hindered.

Am I missing something? Who modded this bigotry informative? And who in that state of mind gets mod points?
I think if you knew what is actually allowed to be in your food, you would never eat again.
Fold@home can use CUDA in linux, but you have to compile the CUDA driver first.
Doesn't SCUMMVM run most of these old dos-run games? Whether or not they were Lucasarts or Sierra.
I was being facetious, but my point was that CGI has its place, and just because you can use it doesn't mean you should use it.

I like the Gubernator better.
stop the CGI! I would prefer a puppet to a CGI model.
Before we know it there will be movies completely in...oh wait. My original point still remains valid.

guess I'm 3/2 more guilty since I triple-boot???
And yes again.
Touche. At least the douche pointed out a gaping vulnerability.

isn't the limit mainly for its utilization of SMS?
they're also that shiny reflective stuff on road signs

plus some apps are free

Vuze (azureus), which I dropped because of how bloated it is. Why java? utorrent is the way to go.
