10 Reasons Why High Definition DVD Formats Have Already Failed "I’m not typically a doom and gloom kind of guy – really, I’m rather optimistic. But this pending format release/war is simply the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in a long time. The hype machine is entirely enthusiast-created and since that day I realized Steve Jobs could sell a fart provided he sued a public Mac forum for talking about it before its release, I began to understand the power of public mania."

11/30/2006 GPU and SMP beta client update 11/30/2006 GPU and SMP beta client update We've issued updates to the GPU and SMP beta clients, since many of them expire on December 1, 2006. Also, the new GPU client has greater support for GPU cards (we now support x1600, x1800, and x1900 class ATI cards). The download page has the latest. These new GPU and SMP clients expire on February 1, 2007. Once we go final (i.e. out of a public beta), we will remove the expiration date from the client. The expiration dates are useful to make sure donors upgrade clients, as older beta SMP or GPU clients often have bugs which need to be upgraded.

When a visiting team comes to Buffalo there are only 3 places they go to eat - Anchor Bar (famous for wings), Buffalo Chop House (famous for steak), Chef's (famous for sauce). I went out for lunch yesterday @ Chefs and some Sabres were there in the corner. Later on some russian Thrashers came in. It's kinda hard to miss a bunch of loud foreigners coming in, but the Sabres didnt say shyt to them. I went out for Dinner @ the Chop House last night and was seated next to some different Thrashers. 10 min later Hossa comes in an announces to the whole restaurant in broken english: "I'm looking for Bobby Holik, we are all NHL players." Damn Czec bastards yelling in 5 ***…

Things to Say When You're Losing a Technical Argument 10 I had one of the interns try that approach for another project, and it scrambled the CEO's hard drive. So I think it's going to be a hard sell. 11 Yes, well, that's just not the way things work in the real world. 12 I like your idea. Why don't you write up a white paper and we'll review it at the next staff meeting? 13 Unfortunately, we're an all-FORTH shop. Otherwise, it's a nice idea.
