I got a 3 gig Direct CU II, 7970 (7890? I don't remember, doesn't matter) that's running on 5 screens. I bought this thing almost a year ago for a little over 400 dollars. I can't see 1,000 dollars justifying it. Wouldn't that 6 gigs be split to an effective 2 gigs? Isn't this essentially just SLI? Either way, at over 10 million pixels I get by without an issue. I leave anti-aliasing off (who would need it? unless it's FXAA, which I leave on) and, again, I don't get any serious slowdown from it. This card seems like it's designed for a crowd with more money than sense.

Yes, that's exactly what we need. A bunch of cars that drive like the elderly so as to avoid any collision liabilities.

If we're going to be serious about self-driving cars, we need to designate them a lane so that the entire lane can begin moving in unison when the light turns green, and so that the driverless cars are allowed to drive at higher speeds, as they're presumed to be safer. If they don't have a better track record than Humans, why are we using them? They are presumed to be safer.

Unless it takes less time to get to your destination, it won't sell. We're impatient convenience whores, and you have to market things towards us with that in mind. How else would the credit card and computers made it so far?

Thank you for shoving words into my mouth. You and I both know it's clear that I was talking about drug consumption, not money laundering.

I love it when people compare a victimless crime to one of the most extreme of liberty violations. Please, do go on about how the two are oh so similar.

That was Quakecon, I tried the Oculus Rift, it was fucking awesome. I'm shocked by this news. But in all honesty, the demo was very incomplete. There most not have been a lot of development done yet. Also, get one. While there are potential designs that will exceed the fisheye mechanic that they're using, it's absurd how good this is for the price.

Seriously? All that what you've explained should tell you is that we take copyright law entirely too seriously. If it NEEDS absurd charges to be worth pursuing, it's probably not worth protecting. Being wasteful with money is not a way to run a country. If something is more expensive to protect than the thing that is being protected, it is not worth protecting. How is that difficult to catch on to? Manage your country like you would your personal finances (assuming you don't live paycheck to paycheck). Waste your time, effort, and money on the things that have a return on investment, not the things that drag you further into a hole. How many hours of court time was wasted for this crap? For something that can ultimately be represented as a base-10 number, which is inherently not copyrightable, we are wasting a lot of damn time. 8 years of court time and a woman losing what would amount to a house, when no one's livelihood was at risk? I'm sorry sir, but your logic is damning.

I got a triple monitor setup back when AMD first announced Eyefinity. I recommend gaming on it, if you'd like compatibility information go to www.wsgf.org and check the game compatibility list. Here's the DR for Defense Grid: http://www.wsgf.org/dr/defense-grid-awakening Also, after switching between protrait and landscape modes repeatedly, with 3x1Portrait coming out to almost 16:9, I finally decided to swap out to a 5x1P setup. Really digging it and it makes anything list-oriented, such as terminal, quite awesome. Though I'll admit straight up, 5 monitors is past the realm of usability and well into the realm of gaming. You're not going to be using more than 4 monitors efficiently.

The world is devoid of meaning aside from that which you inscribe upon it. Shallow, perhaps. But a blank palette is the best type to start on.

But, but. The protective cover keeps it shiny!
No, seriously. I hate people that do this so much. I have to take the protective covers off any item that's actually being used and not intended to be resold.

Squirrels like the casing because they make it using peanut oil, I've heard. Might be worth looking it up, though. ;)

I'd rather have some more flavorful Hunt's ketchup without all that nasty HFCS.It's not that I think it's bad for you, it's just gross.

It sounds like it's the other way around. The jerk pricing is the entry level pricing and you get discounts as you get confirmed as a nice person.

That's not the worst of it! 76 percent of responders would pick up a penny on the ground if they saw it! That won't even cover 0.1% of your co-pay when you break your back or get an infection from a dirty penny.

But the randomness is determined if one takes a deterministic assumption towards physics. So the use of the word "random" would just be convenient from a language perspective. Fix the subset by placing an assumption on the larger set. Sounds primarily like a language issue. Perhaps they should call the process chaotic, instead. Chaotic being "complex", not "without reason".

And to those that want to argue about how quantum mechanics disproves determinism as a philosophical stance (there are plenty of you out there) please be certain you have the differences down between randomness and uncertainty.

Probably depends heavily on body chemistry. I'm a 24/7 stoner and sometimes lapse for a day or two for various reasons. While, yes, it would be nice to be able to light up some, all I find is that I get more annoyed with things that always irritate me. But that's a large part of why I started smoking in the very place so it's really back to same-old-same-old. That asshole that just cut me off? I'm high and don't care. Chemically induced apathy is a VALUABLE tool. :) Particularly when you're prone to being stressed and anxious.
