Re: Ubuntu is FUCKING AWESOME

I haven't been watching the dev forum lately, but has there been a change in the release cycle to better match something like ubuntu? Nice, Might be time to reformat my old drive and stick buntu back on it. I think I might try kubuntu as I hear good things. Kubuntu is almost exactly the same as ubun...

Re: I want a new graphics card

I just did a similar upgrade and went for a 260 Core 216. I've been quite happy with the upgrade.

Re: AWESOME!

What about John Stuart Mill who was a major political and intellectual influence for the suffragette movement of the 19th and 20th century? Or, maybe Frederick Douglass, the former slave and abolitionist, who was the running mate for Victoria Woodhull, who ran for presidency of the US in the late 19...

Re: posting from my 100 Mbit connection

The secret is to do what I do: have an uncle who is an optician, get your glasses for free :)

Why bother going to an optician when you can spend $1 and prescribe yourself. http://www.vdw.ox.ac.uk/images/image_adspecs.jpg http://www.vdw.ox.ac.uk/adspecs.htm Also you live in the US, where health care is just a giant scam. $400 is insane.

Re: Chrome OS

I think I have read (likely on slashdot) that Google has a pretty cool server design for datacenters they are thinking of licensing. If they ever go into hardware I would doubt consumer stuff would be the first step.

Re: Chrome OS

Well it has been predicted for a long time that google would release an OS, it was just a question of when. Surprised it took so long to be honest. Maybe the netbook phenomenon was the driving factor.

Re: Chrome OS

I don't know whether I will ever use Chrome OS, but if it is successfully we could finally see some real competition in the OS market by breaking the MS stranglehold. This could lead to more innovative products from all developers and a drive towards open standards that multiple dominant OSs would n...

If you hadn't said computer I would have gone on a rant about The Conduit, which everyone needs to buy. /rant It looks pretty poor compared to most PC FPS, but I haven't played it so I can't say for sure. @SinbadEV PS3 version, ouch.

Re: Starcraft 2 LAN

They don't use LAN to play someone halfway across the world; they generally use it to play people within a local network no more than 100 metres away. Haha bullshit, there is a large portion who abuse VPNs to play for free. You conveniently ignored the sentence prior to that one. I know that servic...
