Onomatopoeia

Oh, wow, thanks for the link. A very interesting read.

Now I'm gonna find a QNX 4 demo and run it in a VM, just for the hell of it.

They've had HUD in cars since the 80's.

Granted it sucked, and typically only showed speed, but it was there.

Um, it's the Catholic Church, progressivism shouldn't be expected anyway.

I'm not saying this as a dig on Catholicism - if you study world religions, they all have their code, their rules. Progressivism isn't part of Catholicism. Expecting otherwise is silly.

Oh, wow, didn't know that's a wild garlic flower. I've seen them before, thought they were something else entirely.

Hell, using consumer grade, free tools (handbrake) I can convert a DVD to mkv and reduce the file size upwards of 75%, and still be perfectly viewable on a current 65" TV.

I can only imagine the capabilities of Google/YouTube. It would be fascinating to see a high level diagram of how they handle a video.

Er, is it when rain travels down spider webs?

Got a link to what you're referring to?

Lol.

I always find this kind of statement, about anything, to be kind of "blinkered" (as Monty Python would say).

"There aren't enough posts of subject X in this community!"... Well, maybe you should post some then.

Same kind of thinking.

The reality is 90% of games don't appeal to most people, be they men, women, or a T-Rex. I like very few games, some people are more enthusiastic and less discriminating (not a criticism, you do you man).

"encased in weird moon suits" interesting to choice of words

Lol, nice.

I have an old bike with one of the first guages. Same problem, the potentiometer connected to the float isn't well matched to the guage, so 1/4 tank could just as well be empty, and the float arm is just a touch off on its angle. It's nearly useless.

Maybe we can get glasses with unobtrusive IR transmitters that produce random noise to confuse such systems

I have a friend who does this, delivery is everything. Usually it's simpler, just "I'm leaving now".

Plus both of these fans are compressor style, so they can really move air through their respective channels.

The video card uses it's own exhaust channel out the back, as does the cpu cooler.
