  1. Musopticon?: Huh, I'm not sure but probably you misunderstood, my comment was not directed at you specifically, but at the topic in general. Anyway, I couldn't help but read the comments on youtube now that this topic has started. Damn! Anyway, found this sample of high IQ: Not publishing foreign language lyrics (never mind the fact that English is a foreign language for them too)? --> Nazis!
  2. Ok. Let's stop public bullying and teasing, ok? I'll do it, and sorry walkerguy if I've been with the crowd offending you. Now, on topic: Someone a page ago or so implied that sex education could actually be causing this. Or am I misinterpreting that post? If not: What do you think people learn in these lessons?
  3. I stopped reading comments in youtube a while ago. So thanks for posting the best here, and special thx2th3 op for making posts in this and other threads on a similar niveau
  4. Hell, are they over-dramatizing HPV... Probably some pharma-giant needs some money. Easiest precaution: Use condoms or keep hygienic (main cause of HPV if I remember my biology-class correctly: men not cleaning under their foreskin produce a substance there that nurtures the virus ideally). Also, they count herpes in in their percentage. Now, iirc herpes virus is present in the blood of >90% of all humans. Is it only counted as STD when appearing in any region fitting that description, or is the STD-version a different virus? Anyway, I think the youth is more uninformed now than in the past because of clueless parents, tabooing the real theme while being over-sexed by media etc. May they learn from it.
  5. They did indeed. While the NWN2 OC had some great parts, MotB does not only feel more mature, but also more polished and intriguing throughout
  6. I would not want something reading like an internet-orthography version of "female breast" as my middle name Why don't they mention Obsidian in the intro? Just publisher and Adventure Pack creator matter, not the game's dev? *shrug* Anyway, that video seems nice.

  8. To the people recommending 700-1000W PSUs: Sorry guys, this is BS and marketing hype. 500W, max. 600W psus with high combined power and efficiency will easily suffice if SLI/Crossfire are not in question. Please google for "power consumption" and psu or 8800gt, you'll find example systems and their power use. It will be lower than 400w, and considering you don't want to run the psu at max load, 500-600w will suffice easily... Also, a GTX is not that superior to a GT. The price premium is completely ridicoulos (about 150$ difference here, don't know about the prices in the US however), while all you get is a framerate-increase of less than 10%. Google for reviews!

    Ah, now I see what you were getting at. I thought you meant the IPC, which was already higher for an Athlon XP What I meant to say is that now, it's the first time in many years that intel has the more efficient architecture both on the average amount of instructions executed per cycle and (if viewing the processor alone, and not an undervolted / ulv model) power used to do so. But these technical details are probably not what most users are interested in, but rather in how fast their processor is for the money they invest, and intel currently leads there too, in most segments for the average consumer at least, even without the mentioned "intel tax" that was due in the times of Athlon XP vs. P4.

    Your memory might be lacking here. My old 1.6GHz Athlon XP (called "1900+") easily beat 2GHz P4 in most if not all scenarios, might want to google it The A64 just made things worse for intel and opened AMDs appeal to a broader public. The same was the case with the original Athlon vs. PII. It was only the higher consumer awareness, illegal marketing tricks, on the tech side higher production output, clockspeed and now the Core architecture that saved intel's market share

  14. wii fun rest: waste of money (because I've got a pc to play most games I want except nintendo specifics, so...)
  15. samm replied to Bokishi's topic in Skeeter's Junkyard
    The P4 was just a waste. It was slower (at the same clockspeed) than its predecessor pIII. It used more power. The Athlons easily let it bite the dust (?), having a significantly higher IPC. The Core2 architecture has an IPC (instructions per cycle) higher than the A64, making it absolutely superior to the P4. If it really is a 50% increase in performance is doubtable, but certainly not impossible in certain scenarios. Quake 4 actually does support multithreading, so it's not an ideal basis for comparing a single core P4 to a C2D. Take a Pentium D, for example, to compare it to a C2D.

    ah, it's not the video I thought it was. That was:

    The comments may have spoilt the fun in the vid, as the raving kid isn't playing mario at all, but you have to understand german to notice. I still found it hilarious. Anyway, listening to Die

    haha, were they good? sure hope so... not listening to anything right now...
  19. Yes, definitely I don't enjoy red wine if it isn't accompanying any food (in most cases*), but I don't mind a glass of white just for enjoying the fresh taste. I'm not a connaisseur however, otherwise I might be telling you completely different things. *If Port counts as a red wine, that would be one exception.
  20. Why? That he doesn't like any anime series (except Cowboy Bebop) doesn't have to mean he also dislikes great tragic animes like Jin Roh, or original fantasy stories like Spirited Away, probably Princess Mononoke etc...

    Don't buy the e6850, because there's the e8400 now (same clockspeed, but newer generation, more cache, thus faster), and that is even cheaper: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16819115037. Buying a quad or a dual core... I'd say for todays games the c2d8400 is faster than the c2q6600, but I don't know what the future brings Probably there's a Quad-Core user here that can share some experience
  24. Now, with the prices down, the 9600GT suddenly doesn't seem to bad a mainstream-card anymore, esp. when compared with the 8-series mainstream. The only complaint is, besides the cooler, the namechange to 9xxx while it doesn't offer anything new compared to the 8xxx.
