tech report has one of the better p4 1.7ghz reviews out. some really useful numbers: ps5bench on ps 6.0.1 and lame among those.
Running this suite of tests on these processors has demonstrated a couple of things worth noting about how these CPUs perform. First and foremost, it’s clear the Athlon 1.33GHz is still the big dawg of PC processors. It’s easily the fastest x86-compatible CPU around. Intel’s new entry, the 1.7GHz Pentium 4, performs about like a 1.2GHz Athlon in most situations.
Dot-Com Refugees Find Welcome in Porn Industry – hah, luckily bush will put an end to that! it’s oil or nothing.
whoa, i did not know that g-force is short ofr “godforce” – steve johnson has written a short feed article on andy o’meara (author of g-force and whitecap). the article mentions dj spooky and his use of g-force. in fact, it was cool hearing him plug it in the sxsw keynote this year… hmm, oh yeah, that stuff needs to go up. first i need to finish my perl chat server for my show in two weeks. my life is so sad. i’ll have a few weeks off soon though…
well, it was joked about, but yes, it does look like gw is actually gonna start a war. oh, bush vs pornography: culture wars pt 2! because there isn’t anything more important for his administration to be doing.
got this link from a friend as well: alternewswire.com – “what’s really happening”
I can’t say I was offended by any of the content in Freddy Got Fingered since the things you see on the Internet desensitizes you to about anything real quick, but I was disappointed and expected something more than a ragtag collection of bad, extreme Farrelly Brothers-style gross out jokes and recycled Tom Green Show sketches. If you must go (it’ll certainly be a memorable experience), be sure to bring a parent, grandparent, or date. They’ll never forgive you.
i got sidetracked a bit and instead of doing real work, i ended up going through my icq message archives a little (i’ve had an almost continuous archive since i started w/ icq. i have 39651 sent and received messages recorded, with the first on 11/20/1997.
i was halfway there looking up the numbers, so i decided to make a little percentage chart of some of the people i’ve talked to most (more than 1,000 events, ordered by oldest first message). actually, i wonder if there’s a icq stats tool that will generate all this useless stuff automagically?
