the number of programmers to users are unfortunately not significant. ati does those drivers for users, not programmers who may be doing 3rd party apps. they are not the driving force behind the market.
of course, predatory capitalism comes with 'unregulated' in the package.
noone is coming up saying 'hey ! under these conditions, collece education becomes another form of indentured servitude, this is not fit for 21st century civilization', and preventing it.
after all, market knows best, right ? market regulates itself, right ? market is efficient, right ?
we all know that how well 'market' did these stuff in regard to riding on free credit for the last 10 years, and then the credit crisis.
one has to be a fool to not be able to see what this going will do to american education, and its generations of educated workforce.
how about that ? the clinic any whomever did that research in china should shove their results up their asses in my opinion.
what they define are stuff normally found in any average home in the modern world in people that are watching daily tv broadcasting after a long day's work. so our modern life is also an ailment too ?
shitty drivers does not bring coder hate. it brings user hate. surprisingly, even shitty drivers and that shitty control panel that STILL requires bloaty net framework to run on xp couldnt bring much user hate. to the contrary, they have quite a fan base.
either an idiot, or a fool. to quote other users :
The card is exactly the same as the Geforce GTX 280 except with quadruple the VRAM. Like all of the Quadros, they're the same as the normal lineup with more RAM and different drivers.
Yes and no.
It is a Quadro, and the extra memory is indeed handy for "professional" rendering, but don't get too far ahead of yourself. The rest of the card is nearly identical to the gaming versions. I suspect this is a GTX 260 with minor changes... mostly in the firmware.
my regards to the fool that modded you insightful.
Obama stories since Nov. 11 was 946, compared with McCain's 786
when i started to read the summary, i thought that there was a REAL difference in coverage. it turns out that obama was covered only 20% or so more than mccain.
so THAT is the difference that can have any relevant impact on an election ? please. its not the hour of day for enduring bullshit, you should have waited until the evening to post the article.
excuse me but this is total bullshit. oldest trick in the book. if you are behind in technology, pop out a card with huge ram and try to get some sales.
lets face it. nvidia has fallen behind ati in the chip race. you can place any number of 4870s in a setup as much as you like to equate the power of any monolithic nvidia card and they always kick the living daylights out of that nvidia card in terms of cost/performance per unit of processing power.
it doesnt take two monkeys to understand that placing something on someone's computer without their consent and knowledge constitutes not only a violation of their rights, but also an information technology crime, as same as hacking a pc.
but apparently it takes infinite amounts of lawyers to understand that as a company. or, EA's lawyers were TOTALLY stupid, or bloodless bastards.
this is 21st century, not wild west. enjoy your class action damages, jerks.
republican party got blasted, but apparently that made republicans and libertarians in slashdot even more extremist. anything we say that contradicts with their holy church of holistic economy's preachings gets downmodded.
flamebait my butt. we are still going through a global crisis those people brought upon us. excuse me for voicing the truth, but you will have to stomach it.
getting a 'license' to lock down an ENTIRE state, country, region is NOT free market. free market happens when everyone is allowed to compete in the same area.
curiously for some reason these 'licenses','patents','copyrights' and 'free market' somehow coexist in libertarian/republican mind, tho all of them contradict each other.
i dont want militaristic stuff being conducted in my mmo. no tolerance there. i may corpsecamp those avatars you employ to research to the extent of being unable to interact with the game. and im sure i wont be alone in this. take your sh#t elsewhere.
for any idiots who may err 'on the side of wisdom', i have done 1.5 years of military service, and i very well know what that sh#t is, whereas im sure most of you who read this post dont. we dont need that in our games. period.
but you are also wrong about the mafia and the regulation too. it is indeed a mafia environment, that is the one without regulation. for, if you leave a place lawless, eventually big fish eats small fish and establishes an order according to its own preference. that is the way of life if there is not rule of law.
we learned about this a long time ago (like 5000 years or so) and set up central governments so we can evade such wild west living. but apparently, you have missed the memo.
neocon bitch admitted to screening DOJ applicants FORTY times in front of the senate comittee, under LIVE broadcast by news channels. FORTY. FORTY different people were rejected from DOJ because their political viewpoints were not neocon enough.
if there are still brainwashed zealots trying to defend gop among us by downmodding stuff they dont like, may heavens rot them in hell.
thats what exactly it is. microsoft has been way too chummy with neocons in the last 8 years, who were staffing up DOJ with their own supporters only. remember, in a senate hearing a hag admitted that she has screened the DOJ applicants FORTY times for their political views, 'by mistake'.
when microsoft bids failed, and microsoft chose not to go for a hostile takeover to prevent damaging its public image, for some reason doj started looking into the google-yahoo deal out of 'concerns of anti trust'. how convenient, how timely, what a coincidence.
if there is anyone still having doubts, i would like to remind them how microsoft bribed innumerable officials in various countries in the standards case, and how many scandals erupted as a result.
The Feds told Obama's aides in late August that the McCain campaign's computer system had been similarly compromised.'
so fbi, which was turned into a joke by the neocon gop administration by implanting their own people in, went and told obama camp that mccain campaign also got hacked.
no sir i dont buy it. i dont think it was a third party. 'policy position' is also bullshit, the policy positions of each party is clear, and you dont need to hack any website or get any files to know about it.
but, if you hack their websites, you can get a lot of information about the donors.
sounds like neocon filth to me. cataloguing info about donors.
mudslinging is done with stuff that is not too vital in terms of ideologies, but irrelevant stuff. like the ayers thing. like the wright thing.
what dems did was pointing out stuff RELEVANT to the ideas gop was putting out, CONTRADICTIONS.
for example they didnt talk anything about palin kid's pregnancy, yet they talked about how palin spent $150 k on clothes despite saying she was an ordinary hockey mom (new reports say its over 250 k, and she apparently used gop campaign aides' credit cards to buy stuff, it came out when aides requested reimbursement from gop).
yes, america has changed. it started changing yesterday, and it will keep changing in the next 6 months. first, obama administration will purge the shit gop has placed in every rank of american administration. a good example is DOJ, and how a bitch in it used 'political filtering software' to weed out applicants FIFTY times so that only the most hardliner neocons would get accepted into positions in doj.
yes america has changed. but you are not aware of it.

in case you still dont know, the price tag for 'gaming' stops at no limit.
including crysis. full detail (with dx10 hack in xp even).
and i dont even have a 4870. i still use 3870.

if there wasnt central planning in human history, we would still be living in caves.

obama/dems didnt sling any mud.
mudslinging is done with stuff that is not too vital in terms of ideologies, but irrelevant stuff. like the ayers thing. like the wright thing.

thats not mudslinging.
yes, america has changed. it started changing yesterday, and it will keep changing in the next 6 months. first, obama administration will purge the shit gop has placed in every rank of american administration. a good example is DOJ, and how a bitch in it used 'political filtering software' to weed out applicants FIFTY times so that only the most hardliner neocons would get accepted into positions in doj.

1 - congrats on winning your country back from extremism
2 - congrats on proving that the so called 'american dream' is real, and possible
3 - congrats on seeing through all the mudslinging and dirty politics that was employed by a party, and select the better of the candidates
4 - congrats on shattering the race barrier
5 - congrats on making your choice for being an equal member of the nations of earth, instead of the arrogance of the last 8 years
And welcome back to the world.
the good decisions fcc took in the last few months, obama leading 200 to 100 in eastern states, (even getting florida), and now this.
unspeakable joy.
