Wow. That would be great.

All that's needed now is a real good 3d graphics api and we've got ourselves a windows killer.

No, instead you'll get windows Media Center which can't even stream a 192kbps signal across a 54 Mbps pipe and like it.

My computer and my XBOX 360 are in the same room with the wireless G network router.  The 360 is on one of the routers gigabit ethernet lines the computer is wireless.  I can not stream a 192kbps mp3 file through Windows Media Center from the PC to the XBOX even though there should be enough bandwidth to send 100 such streams (theoretically, I know it's not even a 10th that IRL.)

knowing this amazing feature is available on a pc while not being able to have it on my pc is going to seriously fuck with my head for a few weeks.  the possibilities are already bouncing around inside my brain like bullets.

Man, I've been wanted that for a long while.  Use my cellphone bluetooth adapter to communicate via teamspeak while gaming.

Useless conversation?!

So I've moved house and the new place is part of a body corporate. Which one of the two cable companies we have here won't service, and the other supposedly doesn't allow for individual connection. So we were told we had to get a quote for the whole site and then submit it to the body corporate and the members would vote on it. All of which takes I little time and is much more expensive and would likely get rejected by the members. Which would then require us to get ADSL and a telephone line (and no cable TV). Then yesterday we talk with someone else on the phone and they say that it's still listed as a normal house on their records and they can just send someone out to have a look at the place and maybe connect us directly... what a glorious waste of time. Here's hoping we can get the connection all set up sometime within the next year.  Ohhhhh, I see.

Yes, congratulations on homeownership, sounds like you're hitting the ground running with the bullshit.  I was going to suggest ADSL+ bittorrent, but sounds like you might get real TV.  Fight on, brother.

Looking back, one of my favorite games of all time is Sid Meier's SimGolf. Mashunu!

If you ever play it, make sure to take advantage of customization options. Who wants Sally Soda Vendor when you can have the Beer Wench? And I make sure my golfer (Busta Clubs, always) has a colorful set of quotes (Is Busta gonna hafta choke a bitch?).

Isn't that the reason the Politics forum exists?  wink

It only happens with school people for me, I've since mastered the skill of never humoring people I hate, so they don't bother saying hi when we might have been in 'bumping' territory. Hmm, that sounds like a missed opportunity when it comes to the hot ones.. maybe I should re-evaluate my ways.

I just pretend I don't remember them. This mainly applies to every single person I went to high school with.
