  1. Do wut about longcat?
  2. It's true, the 4870 blew the original line of GTX 260-275 price range out of the water, and they started slashing. The 5000 class GPUs will soon do the same to the 285+ cards. Even if you hate their CPUs, gotta love AMD for keeping Nvidia and Intel competitive.
  3. We don't all pay taxes. Poor, and for that matter unemployed citizens that enjoy welfare benefits, as well as healthcare in Britain do not pay for the same level of service that their working class, upper class, or whatever you want to call them DO have to pay. Moreover, some pay a higher percentage, which is an inequitable method of taxation to begin with. Hence: At a 10% tax rate (LOL) Man makes $0.00 dollars annually, still gets Social Security checks. Man makes $10,000, pays $1,000 in taxes, gets his checks, same amount. Man makes $100,000 pays $10,000 in taxes, gets his checks, same amount. Man makes, say $250,000+ pays $25,000 in taxes, or more since there are progressive tax brackets, and I believe gets less in his Social Security checks. Make sense? If you want to mandate in the United States that every citizen must be immunized, or rather vaccinated, I'd be willing to accept it, since it would be on the principle of the virus spreading via individuals to the masses. But only the condition the costs are split equally. Now wrap your head around that.
  4. Why it shouldn't be free? It can't be free. Everything has a cost. It's arrogant to assume something is free, and should be free for everyone, when in fact it's being paid for in full by some for the sake of all. What do they teach you over there?
  5. Well why should it be free? "Should" is a normative statement bro.
  6. Well there's the reason why its a real paper.
  7. It just surprises me they'd give this kind of assignment... In my Gen Ed English course they basically made us do a few "Go write me a argumentative paper, atleast 5-7 pages long, MLA format." No topic given essays.
  8. What the hell is your sig dude? I've been trying to figure out what the fuck is hitting his head.
  9. ....this is for a college course?
  10. Rule #1. When there's a will, there's a way.
  11. Is fake. I don't kown what makes it more obvious, the outdated uniforms with commercial boots, the fact that they're driving a SEDAN, or the "cop" in the background with a paintball mask at the end. EDIT: Watched it a few times, I think the mask is actually a gask mask, old version though. You can buy them at gun shops, same for the supposed weapon he's carrying. The BDUs are really the give away though.
  12. I hear people get stabbed to death in London for saying welfare sucks.
  13. ...there's a stupid belief that medicine should be cheap. 1: Because egalitarian numbfucks think everyone deserves medicine. 2: Because the method of production is usually cheap, therefore the product should be cheap. This ignores the thousands upon untold thousands of hours put into hit-and-miss tests, scrapping entire formulas, and finally getting the product FDA approved. Also the "vaccine" isn't anything special either, I think its just tamiflu.
  14. And 80 lb. girls are the best acrobats because of their build, but they can't carry a fifty pound pack. This is to say the specs you suggest are bottlednecked in the GPU section dude. That build would be spiffy if it substituted the 4850 for one of its betters, like the 4870/90. Also this.
  15. Once again, I'm happy for you and your i7 fetish, but you ignore the fact that the GPU in that rig is underpowered. Why would you buy a PC with an i7 processor and get a Radeon Hd 4850?
  16. q9550 more or less is on par with the phenom IIs, with comparable pricing. The REAL differences really only begin to show when you start OCing imo. You can fork out the extra dough for an i7, even if its only a 920, but you will only acquire noticeable differences in processing over the Q- class and AMD chips if you OC, otherwise you're pissing away money. The person in question has no understanding of these concepts though, and would not benefit from a rig with an i7 CPU anyways, better to spend that extra money on a high class GPU. (Now waits for the fanfags to start foaming at the mouth as they spamlink benchmarks)
  17. Lol? You think your vaccines grow on trees? And Brits wonder why they pay the same for a liter of gas that Americans only have to fork out for a gallon.
  18. This makes me wish I demo'd that one time on DE/CS I killed the entire team on boston with my knife and their own nades in 5 seconds, was beastly.
  19. Sick, but would it support multiple GPU cards that have MASSIVE heatsinks on it?
  20. It's a essentially a glock/tommy gun. Useless.
  21. This is a gaming forums, so it's obvious we're gonna troll threads in regards to videogaming. Do I need sarcasm brackets?
  22. Sir you are awesome.
  23. I do have SLI running, the gtx 295 is extremely energy inefficient.
  24. I dunno, I haven't tested it yet to verify but I'm pretty sure I break 550 under load.
