Chip's Challenge meets... Doom!

(doom2+zdoom required)

At this moment incomplete, pushables keep getting stuck, overall much worse playability than in the original (obviously) etc, but left like sharing for being an interesting idea nevertheless.

Video showing the destructive re-entry of Jules Verne ATV

Now that's some mega-expensive fireworks...

(NB: It was meant to burn up on re-entry - that's not a FAIL... )

For anyone familiar with RiffTrax, I've finished up an iRiff for Superman III. (iRiffs are a new feature where the riff fans can make and put out their own RiffTrax.)

It's $1.99 for the iRiff and I would appreciate any praise or constructive criticism.

I don't like Dilbert strips anymore, but this one is a required read if you want to understand why some companies are claiming to be in big trouble.

Hey look, the personal supercomputer.



Seriously, 960 cores? How many average consumers need 960 cores, I am runnin' perfectly fine on two.

I'm sure one of you guys could find a use.

Meh.

Those "cores" are just bog standard shader ALUs as can be found on every graphics card in the market today. They're just over-pimping it - you can do the same calculations using your graphics card today; my two ATI Radeon 4850s have 1600 such cores all in all...

np: People Press Play - Frail (People Press Play)

I'm pretty sure that they said one of the four GPUs running the entire computer (yes, that's right, there is no CPU) has a processing speed of 1 Teraflop (per second). And I know what a flop is. And that's kinda impressive. I'm pretty sure the difference lies in the supporting hardware that makes it possible for a GPU to do a CPU's job.

Uh... no.

"Program in C for Windows or Linux" - there's no way in hell you'd get Windows running on that thing unless there's a regular x86 CPU in there...

Even the PayStation 3's cell processors have a PowerPC core for running the basic OS...
