    Measuring Controller Lag in Console Gaming

    Radio waves ARE light - just a different part of the spectrum. Light IS faster than electricity, but with wireless controllers there is additional A/D processing on both ends, vice the direct communications with wired controllers.

    The Eagles Sue Politician Over Parody Songs

    Sounds like the issue would be that he reused the instrumental track - parody artists like Weird Al rerecord their own music.

    Data Centers Breathe Easier With Less Oxygen

    I'm on a submarine, and we do something similar. We allow oxygen to drift down to about 17% and keep it there. It greatly reduces the chance of a fire, and believe me, a submarine fire is a very deadly thing (Just look up the USS Bonefish). Anyways, this does cause problems though - you feel...

    F@H announces support for ATI video cards, PS3 as well

    No, nVidia cards have done 32-bit FP since the 5000 series. The performance issue is that the X1900s have a branch prediction unit, whereas geforce cards do not. The latest ATI cards therefore have a big advantage in GPGPU use, but not in graphics use, over nVidia cards.

    March is over...how'd you all do?

    Well, I finally got around to getting some old parts back into use as folding machines. Went from a lonely 3400+ to adding a 2800+, a 2GHz Celeron and a part time 1.6GHz PM. I've finally got unstuck from the 780's and am actually moving up in rank. Next is to get an old AXP 2100+ up running...

    GBGromac frame times

    Well, I sure feel stupid. Turns out that Suse's power management had turned down the clock speed to 1GHz as opposed to the 1.8 it should have been. Now I'm getting 33min frame times like it should be. Thank you everyone for the help and responses, though.

    GBGromac frame times

    They do seem to run knida slox on that linux box, but I have no idea why. It always runs the core ~ 98%, and I've verified the that everything is set right bios wise. Here's some logs: A64 1.8 on Suse 9.2 [05:41:08] + Attempting to get work packet [05:41:08] - Connecting to assignment...

    anyone using windows xp 64-bit?

    I installed it on an unused partition of mine, and the first thing it did was to kill my Windows 2000 install. Then, in XP64 it decided that 64bit programs can access the internet, but nothing else! (IE32, Firefox, Thunderbird, etc). I managed to use a backup I made before the installation to...

    Worst videocard you have ever bought.

    An old VLB ATI Mach32 2MB card I had. Never did work completely right with any computer I owned.

    Best Videocard that you ever bought.

    Mine was my old P166 with an (original) Matrox Millenium 8MB + Monster 3D Voodoo 4MB, with an PCI ATI Mach64 running a second monitor. However, I sure miss my old VLB Cirrus Logic 1MB board, getting my 486 into the world of SVGA.

    "Steam is having trouble connecting to the Steam servers" possibly Valve's fault?

    Gotta love it - I work twelve straight fourteen hour days, and when I finally get a day off - I can't play the game I paid for! In addition to all the issues metioned above, it says my account no longer exists!

    Logitech MX1000 Problems...

    Make sure to have the latest MouseWare program, and if the problem is with the mouse buttons in games then make sure to get the advanced tool off their website. I don't remember where it is on there, but I got to it through the "my mouse buttons don't work in games" support for my MX700 - I'm...

    external hard drive, USB 2 or fire wire ?

    Firewire (IEEE1394a) drive enclosures typically have better throughput and lower CPU utilization. I couldn't say for your enclosure specifically, but from my experience my Bytecc enclosure gets about 30MB/sec with Firewire, and ~20MB/sec with USB2. USB2 has a higher theoretically speed (480Mbs...

    Kinda like towing ~3000lbs of U-Haul and stuff from SC to WA with an automatic Cavalier. It got there, but the 142K mile transmission tore itself apart after four months.
