    Grad School Math: Which Degrees Are Worth the Debt

    So what the article is saying is that you should not choose any of the degrees in their "top list", unless you plan on doing a graduate degree and/or are already stuck in those degrees. On the other hand, the degrees in their bottom list are some of the best undergraduate degrees. Hell yeah...

    BitTorrent Throttling Internet Providers Exposed

    Telus Optik ADSL here in BC. No throttling, works good, unmonitored data caps. Feels good man. Unfortunately, it's not delicious synchronous DSL. Damnit 15/1. Shaw throttles a lot though. That's partly why we switched.

    Deus Ex: Human Revolution Gameplay Performance Review @ [H]

    I never asked for this review. Game runs good at 1920x1080 on my computer. No more than 40 FPS, but smooth still. For whatever reason, it won't run with FSAA Medium, only High. Disappointed that the game has no orange-lemon lime references, but it does have one skull gun reference.

    Special Deux Ex Announcement Tomorrow?

    I am speculating one of, or a combination, of three things. 1) Enabling soda machines. Delicious orange soda. 2) Headgun. 3) ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU ICARUS HAS FOUND...

    Firefox 7 to Use as Much as 50 Percent Less Memory

    Hm. Reading your posts, I realize I don't have it so bad after all, with Opera. I've noticed starting in Opera 11 my RAM usage would sit at about 700MB restarted, with 18 tabs open, one of them Hotmail, and another the Tomato live bandwidth usage monitor. Now, the memory usage doesn't change...

    New 'Stone-Like' Optical Disc That Lasts Forever?

    Aren't gold CDs just archival grade CDs? I thought this was the point of these STDs anyways, archival. Don't our governments have huge archives filled with tapes and discs? This is simply the next step in archival.

    Battlefield 3: Paris Multiplayer Gameplay Video

    Paris? More like grenade-fest. It's like infantry-only Karkand, but indoors. AMMO HERE NEED AMMO? AMMO HERE HEY NEED SOME AMMO? AMMO HERE Haven't touched anything made by EA in a long time. I'll continue doing so.

    Japan Creates More Computerized Pop Stars

    Good thing they chose AKB48 to test this on. Imagine the sample size in any other girl band? It'd be terrible.

    Laptops May Be Seized on Entry to U.S.

    So what you're saying is that if I were to travel to America, on vacation or otherwise, they would have the power to seize my laptop for an indefinite amount of time, and return it (actually, no, they'd just forget about it) at their leisure? What bullshit is this? I'm not saying it'd happen...

    Tesla Suing Top Gear

    What a strangely appropriate name you've chosen. Nice foresight, bro.

    iPad 2 Meets Shotgun in Slow Motion

    I'm surprised by the amount of magic smoke in the iPad. At the same time, I guess that explains everything.

    Crytek Plans Indie-Friendly CryEngine Licensing

    AKA CryEngine 3. Do not want. I was wondering if I'd have to post that. Huge shame that they don't have access to CryEngine 2. At the rate the chaps at MWLL are working, Smith and Tinker won't have a game worth playing (multiplayer wise) by the time the next Mechwarrior comes out...
