This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

But then that would be accepting a mistake, and men don't make mistakes, none that are acceptable.

He punctuated with a full stop. What if you just accepted you misread it?

$damoser 20 minutes ago
Then why would he put a period instead?

$motogp 20 minutes ago
What if he forgot to put a question mark :P

His comment was a statement. Not a question.

$damoser 23 minutes ago
Seemed more like a rhetorical question to me.

How does you family feel about Anime?

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Very few around watch anime as much as I do...My classmates usually watch movies.
Though we don't share this same interest, we also never comment anything inappropiate on others' interests so it doesn't matter too much. Anyway we're already old enough to avoid meaningless disputes.

As for my family...They sometimes say that anime is childish but also never try to interfere with my choices. Though it's impossible to discuss my favourites with them, it doesn't matter either."

Addictions

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Yeah, computer games are addictive. But it usually doesn't matter much if it's not distrupting your everyday life...
But if you find yourself spending too much time on a specific title, just stay away from it for a week or so, this won't be easy but you'll find yourself good to go after.

uber comp issues

3 months 3 weeks ago

"I suppose you're running windows since you have many huge games...
Don't rely on spyware scans under your running windows platform as they're not always effective.
You can try detaching your hard drive and scan it on a trustable computer and see if something can be found.
Also you should ctrl+alt+del to bring up your task manager and see if something is eating up your CPU power.
If cpu is idle, ram is empty and it still doesn't work...Just reinstall windows...

And also, deleting games usually doesn't help with memory usage."

QUAD CORES

"Maybe I'll consider AMD cores first...Because AMD seems to be in real trouble now.
We've already lost cyrix, reducing 3 poles to 2 poles. If someday AMD also goes down...Maybe the next day we find it out by doubled intel core prices first, and not on newspapers..."

From game to movie or Movie to game.....

"I personally feel game to movie usually acceptable...Though big hits are rare.
But movie to game is nearly always awful. Only fantastic fans can enjoy these..."

CODECS

"Hmmm, I personally perfer mp4 over mkv if there's no absolute need to use the latter because mp4 is better supported by devices other than pc...
As technology develops, portable devices will have more and more processing power...As far as i know PSP can play 720x480 video? not very sure. But if the container is not supported then you can never watch it."

Can apes hold the future?

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Well under severe natural disasters complex species like human will extinct faster...
But I don't see the point why apes last longer...They are nearly as complex as human structurally. And without enough brain to adapt nature, they'll extinct faster instead...

Maybe simpler species like cockroach will hold the future#(=_=)# emoticonand take a few million(or billion? don't know much about earth history...)years to evolve another intelligent species?"

Laptop Battery Life

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Sudden drop-outs of laptop batteries usually don't happen more than once in a short period. Many batteries use a flow intergrator to find out how much power has been used. And subtract it from total capacity to find out remaining power.
So when you experience a sudden drop-out, say at 20%, the battery would find out that it actually couldn't hold as much power as it thought it could. And at the next power-on, the total capacity register will be adjusted lower to fit the real value, preventing further sudden power-outs.
But also battery meters usually don't rely on this alone to find out real max capacity. This is why different batteries' battery meter behave differently.
This is also why many people think "total discharge" is extremely harmful to battery: They drain it and find out that battery life shortened notably, and ascribe it to the draining. But actually, battery life is lost over the whole lifespan, not just at drain-ups. Draining only exposes it.

ps: i'm now using an 3.5 year old laptop and it's still giving me more than 3hrs at 50% cpu clock(XD) emoticon"

Notebook Ram

3 months 3 weeks ago

"I personally suggest 1x1GB because it keeps the possibility of 2GB ( []-[])9 emoticon
And the performance boost of dual channel is not that obvious in everyday operation.
Also, dualchannel has much higher requirement of compatibility. And the degree of support varies from motherboard to motherboard...

you can keep the 256M after installing the 1G, no performance impact.
As for the warranty, if you see no seal on the DIMM module cover, it should be OK. If you still worry about it, check with the manufacturer. "

Are old games harder than younger ones?oO

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Nowadays many games focus on graphics and sound. So it's not strange that difficulty got eased up a bit.
Just finished my first FPS on console: CoD4. And through a little practice I was able to finish it under normal. So I wonder what's easy mode for...
But it is also understandable, anyway the maker doesn't want anybody to miss out the epic story and graphics just because he can't beat a certain level...
But for some old hardcore ACTs, story is just barely there and graphics...Hey you can't expect that much on a 8 bit platform...So if there's no difficulty then there's nothing."

End of Clannad

3 months 3 weeks ago

"Well I think this ending is somehow "kyoto-animation-ish"...They usually avoid depressing atomsphere.
And though the ending is not quite impressive, it's acceptable for the series.
What I'm really curious about is the after story...

"Hello!
Really impressed by the high-quality scans and creative walls here:)
But this site's system and rules seems a bit complicated...~(@_@)~ emoticon
I have a re-cg (text overlay removal) ready to submit...but worry about the 100 paper refusal fine(-_-); emoticon
Maybe I should post it in session zero first?"
