  1. Unless Sony has developed a bunch of fantastic dev kits and a collection of magical libraries and compilers that abstract out the array of SPUs somehow, it seems very likely that the PS3 is a lot harder to program for. It's not because it used a new processor architecture, it's because of what that architecture looks like. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Did anyone read that article posted earlier that said its almost no different from writing code for a multi-core PC processor? Which is what the 360 is.

    Comics

    I wish I had enough money to buy comics still. But I have to choose between Comics and DVDs... and DVDs win. Though I can still buy a trade or two when I have some extra cash. Theres a new Lucifer one coming out in march that I have to save for. Have any other canadians noticed that the Canadian price on the back of books and comics when compared to the US price doesn't reflect the exchange rate? The Canadian dollar is worth 85 cents US, yet an $8US book is still 11 bucks Canadian, or a $14 trade is like $24 canadian. when it should be more like $9 and $16
  3. So after running a campaign based around the Liberals being horribly corrupt and rewarding their friends and how the conservatives are nothing like that, they give a Liberal floor crosser a cabinet position, and appointed a non-elected friend to the position of minister of public works. Yay for non-partisan corruption! http://www.ottawabusinessjournal.com/361101512828089.php
  4. That can play HD movies for 500-1000 less than a stand alone player :D
  5. Interesting. Megagames aren't very far up my trust-list (if I had one..), but it's still fun to read some differing views on the accessibility of the CELL and its SPU's. Too many people claim that it's impossible (or near at least) to write code for, but seldom does anyone have any direct contact with the beast. I read somewhere that over 4000 devkits for the Playstation 3 had been shipped.. I wonder where they all went? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The thing is that all the people claiming that the PS3 was hard to develop for were people who either A) Assumed that the PS3 was hard to develop for because it used a new processor architecture, they had no other information than that, or B) Worked for Microsoft.
  6. I wish Blizzard would do a BG2 style single player game. With Warcraft and Starcraft they've proven they can do a good story, and if they did a BG2 style game it would be a sure hit since everyone would buy it because thats what happens with Blizzard games.
  7. Theres a bunch of fans who are trying to get together the funds to buy the rights to the series so they can possibly make a 2nd season if they can find a station willing to air it or if they can get a direct distribution model that works.
  8. Damn, those are some big cats. Mine weigh about 3.6 kg.

  11. Dang, I kept clicking to see if there actually was something at the end, then it started looping.
  12. Well, I might have to give it a try, v 1.5 of Firefox is less stable that IE ever was. Crashes on me at least 4 or 5 times a day.
  13. I had purple hair once. My favorite hair on a girl is the classic punk/goth black with red streaks. But I'll just classify that as brunette.
  14. For the most part I prefer Brunettes, though when a redhead is hot, she's REALLY hot. Oddly enough, though blondes are at the bottom of the list, all but my current girlfriend have been blonde.
  15. I think there was a Batman, sort of, at one point. lana had this creepy boyfriend, always dressed in black and grey and he was investigating Clark. I think his name was Bruce too. Turns out he was working for Lionel and he... disappeared. He was played by that blue-eyed mimbo in the first season of Lost. I always thought he was Smallville's version of Batman. I hope we get a cameo of Superman. I'd like to see Clark fight Superman <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wasn't Bruce. Turned out to be a dead guy who was brought back to life by Lionel's scientists but degenerated quickly and died again.
  16. wasn't the last time he mentioned it like over a year ago?

  18. This winter has been a little more wintery. Averaging more around 5-8 degrees, with a couple weeks being around freezing. Snowed for like 2 days. Then turned to rain and was gone within a day.
  19. Last winter it was 16 degrees here in Vancouver. Thats 62 for you americans. I doubt they would in Winnipeg though.
  20. Good thing I'm starting to thin up there. Can't scalp me if you can't get a good grip.
  21. Nope. And he did die in the comics, but Clark brought him back. I have that issue
  22. So, first thing the Conservatives did when they got into power was tell the US to **** off. 2nd thing they did was tell Alberta to **** off(well, Klein anyway, and to a smaller degree). These guys sure are surprising.
  23. Nah, he's just making sure people don't take our ****. I'm actually surprised the first thing Harper did was something I agree with. I figured he'd crucify the gays or something. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Except for Hans, which actually isn't your ****. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its half ours.

    NHL

    So... when comparing Crosby to Ovechkin, is anyone taking into account that Crosby is 2 years younger? I will admit that this is pretty impressive though:
