  1. No offense to Watermonkey, but your post reminds me of Bill O'Reilly. "SHUT UP. SHUT UP. PRODUCERS, CUT OFF HIS MIC. CUT OFF HIS MIC."Anyway. I've never tried such things, since I'd be a bit afraid of burning out the engine. Too much power isn't alays a good thing.
  2. 5'6" is pretty tall for that grade. It really depends what your body-mass index is to determine what the general height being average should be. Elsewise a person could be stout or stick-like.
  3. In my personal opinion, rendering graphics isn't vital towards gameplay. If the main character was a giant cube hopping through a world full of badly shaded polygons, I'd be happy if the gameplay as A-OKAY. If the game had graphics that would be the envy of any Square-Enix deveoper but played poorly-- you can see where I'm going with this.
  4. I'd hate to imagine what would happen if the liquid cooled RAM is overloaded from somebody over-estimating its abilities.
  5. Mr. Burns had to be one of my favorite Simpsons characters, hands down. Also, the image/wallpaper is giving me a 404 error.
  6. Your post is pretty hard to stand, but it's alright I guess. If anything, the Nintendo Wii's control system made it entirely more difficult to control do to having to actually aim at the screen. That made the camera angle flip around if your arm even got tired and dropped a little bit while firing. On the game cube version, you could just sit like a bump on a log and plug away at the Ganados. I actually enjored the Mercenaries' mode as is. Albert Wesker had to be one of my favorites, hands down along with Krauser in it. It's pretty hilarious how people thought Resident Evil 5 was racist from all of the infected people being black and Chris Redfield having to shoot all of them, whereas in Resident Evil 4, they were all Spanish. Both could be considered racism. Uh-huh. Yeah. I smell a double standard. Regardless, I look forward to Resident Evil 5. A lot could change like how Resident Evil 4 totally changed from the E3 preview/debut and its release.
  7. The sheer size of this discovery in both size and impact could have a huge impact on the field is science. The exact reason why NOTHING is there will possible reveal a lot about the creation of the universe. The unnverving part is how massive this nothingness is. Cosmic background radiation is supposed to echo out everywhere from the big bang, but the fact it's a cold spot would mean this area was untouched even then. This is not only confusing and unsettling, but amazing.
  8. It's a coin flip. There is one or there isn't. Nobody knows. Anyone who says they know is lying.
  9. If anything, we should enforce more education so that the United States isn't any further back educationally than it already is. No offense, BooZker. I don't like your logic. GED degrees are frowned upon for most jobs. I don't think a cashier at Target is an esteemed profession that will have anyone financially secure.
  10. Anyone suggesting they have any idea on the matter is just throwing out a wild guess. In truth, nobody CAN know if the mind continues on after the life. I've thought about the matter on various occasions and certain topics come to mind ( no pun intended ). If the body is a colony of cells, how can it have one form of awareness versus millions? Is the mind simply a manifestation of the brain and if so, where is conciousness exactly located? If one could determine exactly how conciousness works or where it's located, it would be a simple answer. Logic dictates if it exists, it must occupy space or at least have a location. If we can't even determine where conciousness is located or what it's made of or what it is, we're back to square one. People have pondered the matter since the beginning of mankind. I don't think it's ever going to be solved. One can't truly know. It's not as if though you can kill some guy, bring him back with MYSTERIOUS MAGIC POWERS, and be all: Hey, was there an afterlife? And him being all: Yeah, sure. Let me go back to sleep. Nobody knows what happens with the mind, what conciousness is, what space it occupies, or where it goes. Conciousness has no weight. Conciousness occupies little or no space. One could easily infer it is not made of physical matter or at least exists in the Bosse-Einstein condensate to be able to exist in this mannerism. Anything and everything that exists in our universe is made of matter, energy, interchangable therefor. The issue of Quantum Physics comes in with conciousness causing prolapse from the simple act of observing events. Also, the concept of conciousness itself is a little hazy in the quatum physics community. Many believe matter actually needs an observer to even exist. Additionally, conciousness is hard to define. The simple act of perception and the ability to observe matter around you is a key difference. You are alive. You are able to observe. A rock is not. If you are dead, your body is unable to observe. What happens to the conciousness which is obviously different from the body itself? The core of when this will be discovered is if more research could be done to what exactly life and conciousness is. Although, we will never truly know. People will arrogantly thrust their opinions that there's no afterlife or there is one left and right forever. It's not going to help us find an answer. It's blindly picking a pony and going with the fifty-fifty coin flip here. It may seem unsettling, but the fact conciousness can't be defined to easily by the guidelines for matter should both confuse and comfort those afraid of death somewhat.
  11. The newest internet explorer really seems as if though Microsoft's trying to compete with Mozilla's Firefox by stealing ideas. Then again, that seems to be how Billy Gates handle the competition now-a-days. Swiping their ideas, calling their service a "Virus" ( Gmail ), or flat-out making the operating system incompatible with the company's programs.
  12. I don't think it's entirely possible to completely remove all traces of data from a disk. There's always going to be some sort of physical artifact that data was written and if somebody had enough time, there's always a way to recover it.
  13. Protip: Anyone claming to be a "hacker" is usually just a 13 year old trying to pull an ace card during an internet argument.Seriously, though. The term "hacking" is just a vague assortment of various terms the technologically illiterate might as well call "COMPOOTER MAGIC".
  14. You're not understanding the actual point here. Mexico sucks. Mexico sucks really bad. It sucks even more if you're poor or the lower class. North of their border sits a pretty awesome place to live, the United States. If your family had to live in a really dirty place and you're doing some crap job for a few pesos, why not travel further north where you'll be able to at least support them? Most of the illegals are not bringing in mafias. That's just stupid. If anything, violence is happening since they are soon to become the top minority. If you want to stop illegal immigration or at least slow it down, make the process easier for them to come up here and enforce they'd be paid as much as United States citizens, like I said. It's probably the last humanitarian method, but no skin off of my back. You're cutting off them from getting jobs. Why would any employer pay as much to a person from Mexico who can't speak english with little job skills as a person who can at least speak english? And if the United States are THAT bad a place to live, we wouldn't have such a problem with illegal immigration. In the United States, we have it pretty great. People tend to ignore that and make it out as if though it's awful. Shut up or leave, people. Others are willing to practically die or swim the Rio Grande just to get HERE.
  15. Yes. Yes. Okay. Topic over. Let's all go home.
  16. I don't know how anyone can throw a huge fit over possible accidental citizen casualties from the US when its enemies say there's no difference between citizens and soldiers and in fact PURPOSELY target civilians without imploding from the power of irony. I'm not saying anyone's thrown a fit here yet, but uhh.. just in case if somebody does. You know?
  17. Nintendo's always had their consoles more entertaining. Who cares about graphic rendering when your gameplay is absolute crap? The 360 has entirely too many glitches and Sony hasn't exactly been creative ( SIX AXIS, anyone? Haha. ).
  18. Global Warming isn't real. I'm not believing that temperature readings from one hundred years ago are remotely accurate in telling diminutive degree changes. Their inaccuracy is probably in if not over the innacruracy rate of today's temperature reading technologies.
  19. I can only suggest that you be careful. It's not the entire neighbourly social stigma if you get caught, but it's more like they'd wise up and enstate some sort of key or password to the connection for their wireless router.
  20. Simplicity hands down. Nothing's better than a page being simple. If most of the bandwith is pointless anime pictures and such and it's taking up more data transfer than anything else, consider this: Most people are there for the content. Not the flashy layout.
  21. That's particularly weird, since people usually complain left and right for seperation of Church and State all over the world, but don't bat an eye when it's the other way around and the government pushes the churches around.
  22. If people keep trying to be everyone's self righteous savior, I'll start smoking just to spite them. I swear to God.
  23. This actually sounds pretty spiffy and useful. It could probably also save window space, too.
  24. The Super Nintendo Entertainment System hands down. Nintendo still has the basic idea of how to make games actually entertaining, whereas the other consoles are devoting about 75% of their system resources to AMBIENT LIGHTING and REDNERING SHADOWS. Who cares about that if your games aren't fun and suck? The fact Nintendo has their own series of games versus mainly relying on third party creations is also a plus, as most of their games have a nostalgic feeling to older games in the series.
  25. The iPod is just a fancy way of saying "a hard drive with software that plays music". Apple's only doing nicely, beause people buy this marketting ploy to make it sound like some advanced piece of technology bull *BLEEP* with a spoon. The entire premise of Apple's marketting is to target people who don't know how to use computers. That's why the Mac's interface is usually like a Playskool keyboard, whereas Windows is a Piano, and Linux is an advanced Mixmaster DJ table.
