  1. wii fun rest: waste of money (because I've got a pc to play most games I want except nintendo specifics, so...)
  2. 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.
  3. ah, it's not the video I thought it was. That was:
  4. 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
  5. haha, were they good? sure hope so... not listening to anything right now...
  6. 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.
  7. 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...

  9. monica richards - into my own seafruit - air some happy vibes before sleep lalala...
  10. 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
  11. 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.
  12. Reaper - Totengr
  13. Beer stinks, or rather people having been drinking beer stink to those who haven't... Anyway, there are almost no beers in clear bottles here except the ones you keep in the fridge anyway. Interestingly enough, most of those are either very light beers or flavoured with tequila/lemon, so that would fit the description of the article...
  14. What you are describing first is not what is meant by the term "eugenics", but is the description of an evolutory process. It becomes eugenics when anything beyond nature/disposition is involved, like the government. It is then an inherently brutal, anti-social and, subjectively speaking, despicable form of violence.
  15. I'm not sure I notice these things to a greater extent now because I'm older and working in a company where I'm more likely to be affected by them. From my perspective it just seemed like the current year could become interesting and more seminal for the near future than previous years have been, and thus affecting the "decline and fall of europe" in discussion. Could be purely subjective though, call it a feeling
  16. Radiohead - Like Spinning Plates Poor band, I've neglectend for too long now That I finally ripped the cds should help the situation a bit... [edit] Before someone complains: I only ripped cds owned by me, thus legally here.
  17. What kind of forum was that, if I may ask? Modernization is a good thing, though turkey has a history of a quite violent and seemingly overly fast version of that. Let's hope it all goes well.
  18. As long as you don't play the Cello... Radiohead - Exit Music (For a Film) :'(
  19. Not working exclusively, but also wasting the uni-free day with little enjoyment till 2:30 am (now).
  20. Seems to have some good and some imo bad ideas about the end of the world About the SW-Pics: Leferd said that KOTOR3 had been in development already (never heard of that tho, but never bothered anyway ), so this might be the reason for these pics.
  21. The Cooper Temple Clause - Amber
  22. Maybe you're confusing things. What I'd heard of octa-core was 2xquad-core on intel's skulltrail-experiment, however I'm not always up to date.
  23. Fine czech beers, especially the former I'm still looking for ways to get hold of a Zlatopramen here, but it seems quite impossible... My favourite locals would be some of the 'Locher' brewery, namely 'Qu
  24. No, not even that There's nothing added except the VHS-Casette design...
  25. Using the forum search, I found out that the last topic concerning beer was closed three years ago. We can't let this happen, I thought, so here's a new one. The reason for opening this thread is that today, I drank my first two Canadian beers. They were not bad, in fact, their effect quite surprised me at first. It was called 'La fin du monde' and is brewed by une brasserie qu
