That and things like OpenGL drivers make a difference in performance.
Did you know that you can run steam and source engine games on ubuntu now?

It felt like a long series of tutorials and the entertaining end sequences were just the start of the actual game. and then it ended. I like the direction that portal 2 took the story though.
you aren't required to keep all 6 GB of blockchain history unless you are mining. It just so happens that the official bitcoin client does keep the entire 6 GB blockchain history. You are welcome to use any non-official client since the protocol is 100% open source.
I never said it was OK for either company. stop putting words in my mouth.
And than apple waltzed in with the same "there is no option 1, trust us" model with iOS, and while it hasn't been perfect*, it is certainly a million times more secure out of the box than anything Microsoft has accomplished.
*apple is a bit too draconian in what they do and do not allow in the app store (porn and bitcoin right off the top of my head) and there are still enough security holes that advanced users can still force option 1 by jailbreaking/rooting through exploits.
There were a versions of IE4 for Mac, Solaris and HP-UX.
Face it: the Sci-Fi channel has been a rotting corpse ever since they mutiliated the name.
of course when converting from natural date to offset from epoch, you use a database that keeps track of the details as to what offset from UTC is used when. That said, date math is a fucking PITA even when you have all the tools at hand.
To elaborate, I would recommend storing dates as seconds (or milliseconds if you need that resolution) since a well defined epoch in UTC (Unix uses 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970, before macs switched to unix, they used January 1, 1904 and January 1, 1601 for Windows). You can go from there and convert to whatever timezone you like.
arrrrrrr
Even if there were real 3D, how would you make use of this properly? Current story telling only works because you can limit and control what people see. How will a horror movie work if half the audience can already see the guy hiding behind the rock before he leaps out? (This is just one example of a ton of problems that would arise)
I'm not sure that most people who want 3D know what they are actually asking for - personally I think 2D is perfect just leave it alone.
Have you ever seen a play with real actors in real 3D space called a theatre? Sometimes this happens, especially with unusual audience configurations such as Theatre in the Round. It is up to the director to account for the format when they are producing a show (pre-recorded or otherwise).
I can only watch 2D and when in a 3D movie I must ware the friggin' specs. If 3D would cause me headaches then I would not hesitate to blacken one lens. It would actually make sense to produce 2D specs that would only let one channel through.
