I am NOT Christian (or any other religion), so on a religuous basis, this does not concern me. However, this story is a great example of why the ACLU is hated by the right. It's certainly not because the ACLU has the audacity to stand up for Muslims to openly practice their religion or for...
??? I hate stereotypes. This is a prime example of the type of B.S. that has undermined meaningful political conversations on the web. As someone who sometimes votes Republican, I can assure you I am not a 'white male christians first, last, and only' conservative. But that doesn't jive with...
Your argument is B.S. Yes, the ACLU sometimes does good. So? It's still a far left organization that does very little to protect right-wing free speech issues. The reason conservatives HATE the ACLU is because the ACLU claims to fight for everyone's constitutional rights, when in fact, being...
Man, I won't be voting for the McCain/Palin ticket, so this is not a political knee-jerk reaction: that 20 year adult hacker should be jailed for at least 10 years.
Yes, Palin is a fool for conducting business on an insecure email system. However, that little Democrat Representative's weasel...
No. I am a medical student and may very well add a PhD to my MD so a little pesky internet know-it-all who writes in a condescending tone is a mere annoyance, not a threat. Brah. Seriously, re-read your post. You are taking this kid's project apart and commenting on how you'd do it as if you...
While I think this news story is B.S., your analysis of the science of the project is a glowing example of why the internet makes people hate each other.
Wrong. It's not an olive branch, it's a product and they are selling it to make money. CryTek dropped support for Crysis - even though they acknowledged it ran poorly, was buggy, and had broken multiplayer, all so they could work on another MONEY MAKER. Don't be naive.
1. Read the crysis threads - TONS of people had problems, regardless of your p[personal experience.
2. Go online RIGHT NOW and see that there are like five Crysis servers running the multiplayer - it's a buggy hackfest and it's not even 1 year old!
3. You compare Crysis to Far Cry - CryTek...
There should be a law passed that we are not allowed to discuss features of an operating system until the OS is in beta. Remember all of our conversations on WinFS? Yeah, that was worth it.
Since when did we start calling spyware 'a web browser'? I think its pretty obvious what Brin's motive is - profit. That's his right, just like it's my right to use a Firefox 3.
OP: Consider buying the Q9550 for your CPU. It just dropped (within two weeks) from $550 to $329 (check around) and it's a quadcore that OCs pretty well. I have it at 3.5 GHz (using 8.5 multiplier) on AIR, though my air cooler is pretty good (thanks for the recommendation HardOCP!) - it's a...
I wish people would stop saying this crap. I have a 4870 x2 running with a Q9550 Quad Core CPU OC'd to 3.5 GHz with 4 GB of RAM, no spyware/malware/etc., a 3Dmark06 score of 20000 AND...
Crysis runs like crap in DX9 all high @ 1920 x 1080
World in Conflict runs poorly (around 30FPS) all high...
What is the argument against paying sales tax? Personally, I hate big government so I am all for not paying taxes, but I don't understand the online situation - either you ought to pay in your state, or pay in the seller's state, or the seller should pay in his or her state.
Yeah, that will suck. A lot. I do not yet know how I will deal with such betrayal, but I'll find a way. Maybe I'll take up boxing to get my aggression out. :-)
Thanks :-) Hopefully we won't have a socialist health care system with the subsequent paycuts - I will literally be 38 when I am done training and ready to operate, and I will literally have patients' lives (and guts!) in my hands, so I want a large salary as compensation. Of course, I think...
If only you had the same standards for running around screaming anti-science garbage. Seriously, you won't admit you're wrong, but you will spout off complete pseudo-science nonsense??? It should be the other way around - humility before arrogance, young grasshopper.
Buy low, sell high. NVIDIA is at 13 and change, when they normally trade for 20 - 30. I bet they get back up there by year's end, which makes NOW a great time to buy NVDA.
I bought a 4870 x2. This will be my last new video card for many, many years (I am training to be a doctor and will soon be entering the hospitals and working 100 hours a week). I am poor, but I want one last year of PC FPS gaming goodness before I retire. I can't wait to see what's available...
You don't have to believe ANYTHING, however, if you want OTHER people to believe you, AND (and and and and!) you say something that the vast majority of people (including medical personnel) disagree with, then YOU have to prove your point.
It works like this: if I say that gravity is a myth...
'Round and 'round we go. You've made outrageous claims that fly in the face of known medical science. As a medical student, I can say with great confidence that you are completely misinformed. Everyone else in this thread recognized long ago that you were babbling craziness, but I gave you...
