Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Dec 05, 2005 7:30pm PSTSo I installed the BF2 expansion like a week ago and still havent actually played it. What's up with that? I think it may be stress related as I cant stop worrying about Britney's marriage to that Federline dude.

And is it divided geometrically, or kind of mixed up? If the former, does each branch get a triangle, and one whole side, or a kite, and a vertex and half a side each?
To think I came up with all of that just because I was drawing a pentagon in Visio.
I've been trying to convince you pork chops for months that the keyword feature (quicksearch for netcaptor users) kicks ass in Firefox and it's handy / fast to work with.
However it's hard to put into words - so finally, thanks to Windows Media Encoder I can show you precisely what the heck the quick search / keyword system is and why it's awesome

IGN launched it's offical Revolution news site and with it two interesting article concerning the somewhat mysterious next console by nintendo.
The first article is about the graphics power of the system. One developer actualy refers to it as a souped of Xbox in terms of power, but they haven't seen the actual GPU:

Not exactly exciting, but I can't say I disagree with Nintendo's strategy. Better graphics take more resources, blah blah, it's been discussed to death. It also suggests the rev will be quite inexpensive, so it'll sit nicely beside a PS3 or 360.
The seocnd is brief comments by developers who have actually uised the controller. This is the exciting part: http://revolution.ign.com/articles/670/670507p1.html

If you encode a 192kb MP3 twice (that is, if you encode it to 192kbps MP3, burn to CD or something, and then rip that CD and reencode to 192kbps), does that reduce the quality?

Has anyone here been able to beat ZyklonBee consistently? I've beaten him a few times, but he has been raping me probably 8 out of 10 races. It's quite annoying, and I'd love to see one of you guys make him cry.
thanks

i've had to sleep in 2 hour intervals because any more and i end up coughing so hard that it hurts from my chin down to my diaphragm and i have to sit in front of a humidifier for half an hour just to not make it feel so raw and scratched.
at least i have animal crossing. problem is the lack of sleep has left me playing the game and slowly.. dozing.. off.. i'll wake up an hour later and my neighbors are probably wondering what the balls i'm doing standing completely still around my yard with a shovel in my hand.

I'm trying to figure out a fair price for my old rig so I can offer it to Shackers for a good price in case anyone wants it.
I will post pics later.
Parts include:
traditional Mini-Tower case
Brand new Antec SmartPower 400w PSU (replaced an identical PSU that served me well for two years before one of the fans started dying)
Asus A7N8X Deluxe 2.0 motherboard - yes, with SoundStorm. :)
Athlon XP 2500+ Barton core (the core that should o/c to 3200+ speeds)
Alpha heatsink w/ fan clips
Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB - only about four months in use, stock fan has started dying.
1GB Kingston KHX3200K2_1G CL2 pc3200 DDR400 RAM matched pair
Might throw in an 80GB Western Digital SE 7200rpm 8MB if I get a chance to format it.
Lite-On 166S DVD-ROM drive with latest firmware including region free.
Processor, ram, and motherboard have been used for about 1.5years so far and have had no problems or errors.
The case includes the front panel piece from an Audigy2 Gold. I have the card as well but it's in its box in storage. I might be able to include that as well.
I can take everything out of the case and toss the case if buyer doesn't want that, as that would save a bunch on shipping costs. Or I can sell it all in the case. Either way, I'd like to sell it all to one buyer to avoid multiple shipping charges.
This is to find out a fair price, actual sale offer will be later. PM me if you're interested, though.
Thanks.

I'm praying power wasn't going through my CPU after the fan powered down for the few seconds it took me to reach the power switch. But I'm also praying I haven't bust my CPU installing it.

Is there a site where I can easily compare two graphics cards? I want to see how a 9800XT compares to 6800GS (AGP) - yes, I'm sure the difference will be huge but it'd just be nice to see what increase I can expect
The Brazilian - nicknamed Wonderbra because last season he made it look like Madrid had the lot when in fact they had nothing - seemed to be the answer. As the Spanish put it, he was so lucky he had a flower sticking out of his arse.
