…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…
…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…
…is there a good version of pilotwings64 available anywhere other than native hardware?..
…that looks pretty modestly-sized in the foreground, honestly…
(this is a huge red flag:)
…body count!..now that’s a name i’ve not heard in a long, long time: a long time…
(ha - getaway car)
…maybe they like charge up at some lush port with a cheap grid surplus, sail across the atlantic to like, i don’t know, maybe texas during a polar vortex, supplement that grid for a couple of days, return + repeat for a tidy profit?..
…seems tricky to get the timing right; offshore data centers might be a better deal…
…NCSA mosaic won the web, absolutely; in truth i think it gave a lot of us an excuse to upgrade from terminals and shell accounts…
…i remember going to our computer lab in the early nineties and seeing a flyer about this new protocol called the world wide web, thinking to myself in what way is that better than gopher?..
…and i’m glad i haven’t yet…
9.3 bits / 1:628.3

…how do they quantify 3/10 of a bit?..
…it’s clearly a recently-filmed parody…
…i use four WQXGA displays at work but i think i might be more productive with a pair of curved WQUXGA displays even though i’d lose a little vertical real estate; two curved 5Ks would be great…
take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
and build them a home, a little place of their own
the fletcher memorial home for incurable tyrants and kings
they could appear to themselves everyday on closed-circuit TV to make sure they’re still real
it’s the only connection they feel
…that’s the POWER model: the unit posted above is the consumer version with the SX chip, no math coprocessor and fewer function keys…
…look, they could either drop a redundant L or add another hyphen: i fully support their choice, although in my opinion a better solution would be to reformat 3M PF-5030 and avoid hyphenating either entry…
(bottom-up formatting kills the viability of vertical text for this graphic)
…from other fuzzy-liner crocs i’ve seen, no: it’s integral and just gets skanky…
…if you’re wearing socks you don’t need a fuzzy liner (and may as well wear full shoes)…
…it’s what he avoids: russian carrots are accompanied by russian sticks and trump’s kompromat runs decades deep, capital-punishment deep at this point…
…his only course of survival is to double-down on whatever his handlers ask of him…
