    Awesome BIOS Splash Screen of the Day

    Interesting! That makes sense - that with ECC you have to start out with correct parity even if you don't care what's in the memory. My 2P system seems to take forever even after the BIOS comes up (mainly due to additional BIOSes initializing, looking for devices, etc.). Fortunately I only...

    Battlefield 3 Launch Trailer

    It's installed. The rest of you who didn't pre-order and don't have it pre-installed can just sit back and suffer right now.

    Battlefield 3 Launch Trailer

    So... is anyone who swore not to buy this game re-thinking that??

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    That's good. Someone should really do something about those Westboro assholes though. Isn't there someone out there who's received a terminal diagnosis recently, who can do the world a solid before they go?

    Gabe Newell Explains Why PC Games Still Matter

    <holding KB & mouse above head defiantly> FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS!! I'm OK with a gamepad for driving games and some others too, but for certain games (shooters, RTS, etc.) I don't see kb+mouse going away until it's actually replaced by something better. I'm not going to play a game where...

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    AFAIK I've never in my life converted anyone to atheism. I don't make this my goal because it's generally impossible. Goals should be achievable - otherwise they're unhealthy.

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    I'm glad you can be rational about other stuff. I don't agree with some of my fellow atheists who say "all theists are dumb", which is obviously untrue. Theists can be dumb, (and so can atheists). Theists are irrational about one particular subject - it's as if rational thought cannot reach...

    Mozilla Postpones Firefox 3.6.x - 7.0 Update

    Chrome is pretty good.. I have only a few minor gripes with it. FF used to be the clear choice but not so anymore. My impression is that the project has lost its way somewhere. It's Chrome for me - and maybe I'll give Opera a try too just to see if I like it.

    White House Order To Establish New Cybersecurity Policies

    I'd be more convinced if the word "cyber" didn't make an appearance. If there's any word that says "we really don't know what we're doing and we need help" it's that one.

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    Sorry but no you're not because I AM :D. Seriously I never heard anything about it, or even considered it.

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    Pascal's Wager? Really? Even if I thought I could gain some benefit (or avoid some horrible penalty) by becoming a theist, it would change nothing because theism is actually not a possibility for me. It's simply not compatible with my brain, or with the information I have about reality...

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    That's true. When you are dead you don't exist anymore, and therefore it doesn't make sense to talk about events that happen to a person after death. You can only talk about what happens to their corpse. I.e. "Bob's corpse was set on fire", or "Jim's corpse was dropped from a helicopter @ 8000...

    Steve Jobs Funeral To Be Picketed By Westboro Church

    Westboro shitheads should be put in the ground, and their funerals picketed, and their graves desecrated. "because it's the right thing to do"

    "Hell is other people", and guess who's on Facebook? I can waste time in much better ways.

    Study Warns US Must Develop Cyber Intelligence

    I initially interpreted the headline as: "a think tank says that the only way for the U.S. to un-fuck itself is to develop a machine super-intelligence, and let IT chart a path forward to un-fuckedness."
