First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Great Moments in Awkward History
Not since some bright guy invited Stephen Colbert to the 2006 White House Correspondents Dinners, have we been able to witness a more uncomfortable public verbal flogging.
Hat tip to Big League Stew for the link.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
WOW. That was completely fascinating. For real. When did this happen?
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Was anybody slammed through the Spanish announcers' table? That's the real question on everyone's mind this morning.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
I'm not sure if it's true, but I always think of Soriano as being a guy with very limited english speaking/comprehending skills.
Assuming he understood what was being said, it seems odd that he'd just stand there. Unless he was prepped for what was going to go down and was complicent in the whole thing, he'd have been better suited to have just laughed dismissively and walked off.
Very odd.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
That is exactly what I was thinking.
Very weird. They should have gotten someone else who understand/speaks English.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
They should have gotten someone else who understand/speaks English.
Sure... except for the fact that Soriano does understand and speak English.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Good Catch.
I should have added the word 'better' as the last word of that sentence.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Telander, what a disgrace! what an arrogant lazy fuck!, introduced himself to Ryan Theriot FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME YESTERDAY!
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
firericktelander.com is available, dude. You better strike while the iron's hot.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
JR- "Well Miz is letting Soriano have it..."
INTERUPTED by NWA "F#ck the Police" blaring over speakers.
JR screams _"Wait a minute!! By GAWD!! That's Milton Bradley's Music!!"
Bradley walks to ring with empty water bottle.
JR- "Buziness just picked up!!"
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
well played
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Who cares if Fonzie was in on it or not, that was equal parts hilarious and retarded.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Did a google search and apparently that whole shtick is standard fare for NWE. The wrestler the dude was calling out came by and hugged Soriano after his "match".
There are a ton of these wrestling blogs that give blow by blow accounts of every thing that is said at these events. Wow.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
You mean it wasn't REAL? ;)
I've placed a call to the Attorney General's office to begin an investigation.
Kidding aside, even if it is standard fare, I wonder how often the standard fare includes a MLB player??
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Yeah, these things are all staged... like a Manny Ramirez or Albert Pujols home run.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Fonzi was likely paid to be part of that, at the very least his evening was comped by whatever lame group runs those things. If Fonzi had been told what the skit was, then he's an idiot for being part of it. But I doubt anyone told him, they probably were looking to take advantage of him. It's tasteless garbage from a phony sport with an even bigger PED problem than MLB.
Check out this article about how many wrestlers have had steroids related deaths in a 10 year period, it's 60 something.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Thats a long list of of dead wrestlers. I'm surprised the 'sport' hasnt been shut down completely.
no wonder BB and Clemens are so crabby.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
It's a hillbilly thing. They're really into it still.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
they're not technically a sport and WWE, especially, has been very active for many years to brand themselves as anything but a sport.
they steroid test wrestlers in washington state or oregon...i think oregon...not sure. anyway, you don't see much wrestling there.
the biggest problem, though...imo...is how these people treat their pain.
there's house shows (non-televised/taped) performances in between the TV stuff. most of these guys work matches 4-6 times a week and some never take much time off. it all looks choreographed and etc, but really...take all the fancy moves and keeping moving while the match is going on, the acting, etc...just imagine being picked up 6-8' in the air and thrown down for a living as a starting point then think about all the other gymnastic and stunt-man crap they do.
lot of pills and booze. i'm actually surprised there's not more killing/injuring themselves with their automobiles before they get to the point where they're OD'ing on something.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
ah, it's just a bit of fun.
he probably just got choice seats for him and friends, a really nice ride there, and food/drinks.
the "heel" with the mic was just there to make damn sure everyone in the room knew they were supposed to hate him.
it's a lot more classy than dressing sgt. slaughter up as an iraqi sympathizer during Gulf War 1 (the one with the nifty trading cards...war is fun sometimes).
...and yes, it's a classless sport...or entertainment...
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Sorry about posting a lol post, but...
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Wow. A total setup and a shameless use of Soriano and the Cubs, but still hilarious. I don't think he could have handled it much better though.
One wonders if this won't fire Sori up a little bit. :)
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
What does Soriano have to be fired up about again?
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
no wonder BB and Clemens are so crabby.
...it's the hot sauce treatment that makes em crabby.
old style cure for crabs:
cut away half the hair
light the other half on fire
smash crabs with hammers as they run from the fire to the hairless side
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
yeah... that'd make you crabby alright...
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Sort of on topic, looks like the WWE and the Nuggets have a little conflict of dates. Both have booked the Pepsi Center next Monday, even though the WWE actually have a signed contract.
In it Vince McMahon takes a pretty good jab at the Nuggets owner. Not sure how they can move the WWE out of that spot now with so many tickets sold. Looks like the NBA will have to move the date of the game. It will be interesting to see this play out as McMahon will love the attention it gets and will be very hard nosed I am sure.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Rickie Weeks out for the season.
Brew Crew just signed Catalanotto. It probably means Counsel and Catalanotto will get most of the time at 2b with Hall getting more time back at 3b now.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
There goes my Dan Uggla plan B. Guess I'll go get Polanco. *sigh*
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
I should also add that he's cranked out some good offensive fantasy numbers for me for the short time I've had him, so I can only assume that means he was a big part of the Brewers over-achieving offense this year.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Once again, I'd like to apologize to Ne!f! saved us!. That is shitty luck.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
I was reading Doug Melvin's statement to the press when he signed Catalanotto last week, and he said Cat was going to the minors and had to prove himself first. And from the latest article I linked to above, he's not coming up right now to replace Weeks roster spot.
"One option to bring up from the minors is 2B Hernan Iribarren, who is batting .311 at Class AAA Nashville. But whomever comes out will not be a regular player. Melvin said he'd have a replacement by game time tomorrow in Houston.
Melvin did say that shortstop prospect Alcides Escobar would begin to get some action at second base at Nashville in the event there is another injury. But Melvin said Escobar would not be coming up now.
For the present, Counsell will handle the bulk of the duty at second with right-handed-hitting Casey McGehee getting some starts against lefties."
And Bill Hall will still be riding the pine quite a bit, as they have Matt Gamel up now to take away Hall's playing time. Interesting times in Milwaukee. It's about time our division foes starting having their own share of injuries.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
Phillies signed Paul Bako to a minor league deal.
Re: Great Moments in Awkward History
This was so uncomfortable to watch. It would have been better if it had been Manny, A-Rod, Clemens, and their dealer getting ridiculed at the 'roid show. Also check out for things to do around Wrigley that don't involve lame wrestlers at mywrigleyville.com
Recent comments
I have a lot of faith in Baez that he's going to turn into a more consistent, solid player. It looks like it took him about a half season or so of futility at the plate to figure out he was not talented enough to get away with the crazy approach he had. I think his running game will eventually have a more measured aggression.
I hope the D and bullpen show up. Cubs haven't had much luck against Davies, and he's been going well lately. A little uncomfortable with the Cards only 6.5 back--feels like they're right on our tails compared to the 11 game lead I've grown accustomed to.
Cardinals, stop that. Right now.
In a year or two, a lot of fans are going to point at trading him as a mistake. He'll probably be slashing something like 280/400/480 for Seattle at the time. Of course, by WAR, he'll still be worth less than 3, since we're talking zero defensive value.
vogelbomb debut for tacoma (AAA SEA)... 3-3, 1bb, 1 HR, 1 double...DH'd.
while he mostly played 1st considerably more than DH for AAA CHC, DJ Peterson is probably going to see most of the time at 1st for AAA SEA.
Carl Jr.! Very nice!
Baez with another "WTF?" play trying a delayed steal with a runner on 3rd and one out.. Remarkable talent, needs to make better decisions.
m.montgomery up in the pen with a man on 2nd, 2 out, and rondon 20 pitches into the inning.
...and rondon ends it 22 pitches in with a popout to RF.
I gotta say with the crappy defense the Brewers have displayed outside of Fowler I'm pretty disappointed the offense hasn't shown more and Rizzo seems to be very swing happy lately. That said my god am I happy Madden has finally given Carl Edwards a chance after multiple times up with nothing. I don't think he could handle a starting role with his body frame but his stuff plays so well in a relief role and he seems to be able to handle high stress situations very well.
2nd at bat. Fowler is good for the Cubs run differential.
welcome back fowler.
More slow news...
Did Davey Martinez have to bring the shotgun?
glad to see almora going to AAA to get work.
.265/.291/.422 through 86PA...2hr, 7 doubles.
i don't expect too much of an improvement when he's taking over CF next year, but the team doesn't really need him right now as much as they need him to get regular work (imo).
CHITOWNMVP01: The Cubs MLB Reserve List (40-man roster) has had one slot open since 7/6 (when RHRP Joel Peralta was Designated for Assignment).
The problem with the September roster is all of the pitching changes. They should find a way to limit pitchers to twelve except for extra inning games. More pinch hitters or pinch runners do little to slow the game down and are more fun than endless calls to the bullpen. I also think the fans get cheated when they use position players to pitch because employed a half dozen pitchers with righty-lefty switches. Having as few as four positions players on the bench to start a game also leads to some pretty ugly defensive substitutions.
CHITOWNMVP01: Joe Nathan's 30-day Article XIX-C minor league rehab assignment expires tomorrow, but he doesn't have to be reinstated from the 60-day DL tomorrow.
Also, I think 40 man roster should be full, not at 39, unless I counted wrong. I'm in a hurry to leave the house.

May 2016 Commencement
Congratulations--you're almost there.
Few events in life carry the sense of accomplishment that comes with graduation. Congratulations on reaching that milestone! Here is some basic information to make your Commencement day as smooth as possible:
Only those students whose academic record has been reviewed and certified by the Registrar's Office will be allowed to participate in the May Commencement Ceremony.
To attend the Commencement Ceremony you must RSVP HERE. Completing the Commencement Attendance Response Form at this link is what will create your spot in the procession for the walk across the stage as your name is read out loud. You will need to complete this online response form by April 14.
Graduates who are planning to participate in the ceremony will be required to wear the appropriate Saint Rose academic regalia (cap, gown, tassel, and hood). Orders for the purchase of academic regalia must be placed through the Campus Store by Saturday, April 23. A $5 late fee will be assessed for orders placed after this date. Please print the order form found HERE for purchase of the academic regalia. Order forms and payment ($60) should be submitted directly to the Campus Store. Academic attire can be picked up from May 9 through May 13 during regular Campus Store hours (Monday – Thursday 8:00 am – 5:00 pm and Friday 8:00 am – 4:00 pm). Questions regarding academic attire may be directed to the Campus Store at (518) 454-2039. Please note that academic robes and hood colors will change between a bachelor's and master's degree. For example, if you already have a bachelor's attire from a previous graduation it will not work for a master's and vice versa.
Please complete The College of Saint Rose Pre-Graduation Outcome Survey HERE and be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a $250 VISA Gift Card. This employment and education outcome information serves as a valuable resource for current students, alumni, prospective families, and the campus community. If you have any questions, please contact the Career Center, located on the 3rd floor of Saint Joseph Hall, at email@example.com or (518) 454-5141.
The ceremony will be available as a live broadcast. This allows your loved ones at a distance, those with small children, or those with walking mobility concerns to watch the ceremony in the comfort of their home. We strongly suggest you try the link below a few days ahead of time to make sure you are prepared for the broadcast. The URL that provides all the technical information you will need is: http://www.strose.edu/commencementstream. This link will not be up and running until a few days prior to Commencement. If you have any questions, concerns or technical issues, please contact the ITS Helpdesk at (518) 454-2190 or firstname.lastname@example.com prior to the day of Commencement.
Immediately following the ceremony, graduates, their families and friends are welcome to an on-campus reception on The College of Saint Rose Lawn. In case of inclement weather, the reception for Undergraduates will be held in the Daniel P. Nolan Gymnasium and the Graduate reception will be held in the Main Dining Room at The College of Saint Rose.
The Commencement for The College of Saint Rose will be held on Saturday, May 14th, 10:00 am. The ceremony will be held at the Times Union Center (TU), Albany, NY, located 2.5 miles east of the Saint Rose campus. The College has chosen this site in order to allow graduates to bring more guests.
Graduates need to arrive at the TU no later than 8:45 am. The doors to the TU will open by 8:30 am. Graduates must be in the line-up area at 9:00 am. Graduates should enter the TU through the main entrance off Pearl Street. Volunteers will be available to direct students to the line-up area. Guests should enter from the parking garage. The ceremony will begin at 10:00 am and end at about 12:45 pm.
Graduates will proceed out of the arena and into South Pearl Street, which will be closed off to all traffic to assist graduates and families in locating each other at the end of this ceremony.
Students are responsible for inviting guests to the TU. Tickets are not required; however please inform guests, upon entering the TU to attend Commencement, they may be requested to provide the name of the student they are coming to watch graduate.
ada accessible seating and directions
Please keep in mind that the TU is an arena; therefore there will be a large amount of walking required as well as stairs. We highly suggest that any guests with mobility limitations that are unable to walk long distances or climb stairs use a wheelchair. Please consider borrowing or renting one if your guest does not own one; wheelchairs are not available to rent or borrow at the TU. The arena has platform spaces for 34 wheelchairs. Although we do not reserve seating for this event, limited accessible seating will be available upon entering the arena on a first-come, first-served basis. Limited seats will also available in Row S on a first-come, first-served basis, for those guests who can transfer from a wheelchair and are able to climb one or two steps as well as for guests that have difficulty walking or managing stairs. Both wheelchair spaces and Row S seats are located directly off the Concourse level (with direct access from the parking garage entrance). Seating in both wheelchair areas and Row S is limited to two guest seats –one guest with mobility limitation and one companion. We are unable to make any exceptions for additional guest seating in these sections and recommend possibly considering seating in Row R (one row directly below these two areas – also available on a first-come first-served basis). Volunteers will be located at a table by the parking garage entrance to the TU to assist with seating for guests requiring accessible seating. After the limited wheelchair platforms for 34 guests have been filled, there will be additional limited overflow wheelchair seating available on the floor in the back of the TU arena (also limited for one wheelchair guest and their one companion). Please note, because the overflow section on the TU floor is a distance from the stage, viewing may not be optimal; therefore we recommend those guests requiring wheelchair accommodations to arrive as early as possible for best viewing and seating availability.
As of December 12, 2015, the TU has revised their security procedures for all events, which include metal detectors, bag searches, limitation of allowed bag size, pat downs (if needed) and other changes. The TU has made an exception for this event – Cameras will be allowed. Guests should plan to arrive early to allow for this enhanced security process. Please click HERE for complete details regarding the new security measures at the TU – All graduates should share this information with their guests.
When you arrive, you will be given a card with your name on it and a number. The number corresponds to your placement in the line of march and degree conferring. You will be asked to locate your number on a ribbon taped to the floor and take your place in the appropriate line on the ribbon. Directions will be given at 9:00 am. All students must be in the line-up area by 9:00 am. Please do not bring extra items such as hangers, coats, purses, etc. You may not have the same seat after you process across stage, so don't leave anything at your seat. Leave such items with your guests. The College cannot assume responsibility for valuables.
All students need to line up according to the placement received on their individual card. Your placement in the order of march is by school, degree, and alphabetical order. If you are out of place, guests following the procession listed in the program may miss you crossing the stage. The same may occur with those watching the ceremony through live streaming while listening to the announcements of graduates. If you are out of order you may also end up with the wrong Dean handing your degree case to you. Staying in order will assist the photographers with matching the correct person to the correct photos. Additionally, not staying in your assigned place could result in you or someone else not having a place to sit. Please stay in your assigned place to ensure a smooth ceremony for you, your fellow graduates, and your friends and families.
When it is time to confer degrees, faculty marshals will direct you by rows to the ramp at the right side of the stage. As you move across the stage, you will hand your name card to the Vice President for Student Affairs who will be standing at the first lectern. Your name will be announced as you walk across the stage. Continue across the stage to receive your diploma cover from your Dean (take cover with left hand), shake hands with your right. The President of the College or Chair of the Board of Trustees will also congratulate you and shake your hand. You will exit the stage using the ramp on the left side.
- Final verification of degree requirements will not be completed prior to Commencement day; therefore, you will receive only a diploma case at the ceremony. Diplomas will be mailed to you in July.
- Please be sure to clear any holds (financial, library, athletic, parking, etc.). A diploma or transcript will not be issued if you have any outstanding obligations to the College.
- There is no rehearsal for Commencement.
- For graduating students, who require seating/walking or other accommodations for themselves (i.e., ADA accessible seating, sign language interpreter, assistance crossing stage, etc.), please contact Debi Matney, as soon as possible, at (518) 454-5171 or email@example.com. If seating assistance is required for guests, please refer to the earlier section entitled, "ADA ACCESSIBLE SEATING FOR GUESTS".

I've started to go to the gym; but for now, I'm lean. If you like real slim guys, we're golden.
I suppose it's weird to be a guy that owns a cat, but I'm working on being a diabolical super-villain, so that seems to fit. If you're allergic, I'm your new arch-nemesis, because my secret weapon will want to put fur on you right away. I've helped with animal rescue in the past as well, getting homes for abandoned animals.
I'm low pressure, low stakes, so if we hit it off, that's great. If we don't, that's all right too. As I see it, you get better by doing. I'm not in some big hurry. Life's a series of choices; you make a choice, learn, and live with it.
I'm directly between ISTJ and INTJ, and I'd love to hear what you are; I find personalities really fascinating.
Oh, right. I'm a cosplayer, but only like, twice in a year. Anime cons, Sci-fi, mostly. It's not a big deal, it's a hobby. Either you can be cool with that, or look it up if the term is confusing, or move along to another castle. Ideally I'd like to meet another cosplayer, mostly because it's a good common ground to share.
Right now I'm re-watching Firefly. I've read and have enjoyed watching Game of Thrones. Groundhog Day is at the top of favorite movies with Beetlejuice. Harry Potter books, yay! So there you go, a few examples. I like both Star Trek and Star Wars, but generally prefer the Trek.
I feel inspired to write about food a little. I don't like cooking by myself for just myself, but I like to do it as a mutual activity! I like to experiment. I'd love to learn from you, if you're any good at cooking. I'll stand about and help chop veggies for your stir fry. ....I mean that pretty literally.
On the topic of music, I don't particularly have 'taste'. I like to browse. Often whatever's popular is fine at the time, but I'm not deeply into music in a passionate way.
My electric blanket when it's cold.
Family during the Holidays, but not constantly
My newest creative project (whatever that may be)
Control of my finances
A challenging job that makes me really think
My privacy in certain things
You won't find me clubbing.
But often we'll have a Game Night. And by that I mean there's cards or dice involved, not a sport, although I've learned American Football recently (...Okay okay, it was for work). Or somebody has a small party, or a movie night, or something low-key.
Don't wait around for a message, toss one out there!
Highest response rate is to messages that ask a question. Pick something above that we both like, and ask about it! Or maybe something super-important to you that I didn't mention... maybe I like it too.
Also, if we have a fairly high (10%+) of enemy, I'm wary. It means I'll probably look to see why the enemy rate is up. Because that means, of the issues we both feel strongly about the other person answering correctly, they answered the way we DIDN'T want.

Curious how Google handles its Cloud? Meet Chromium OS
Subject: General Tech | May 16, 2016 - 03:12 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: google, Chromium OS
Google has released a beta version of their Container-VM Image to those interested in how they manage their Cloud. It is built to handle Docker and Kubernetes instances on the Google cloud, not for home usage on a small scale. If you are curious about the competition for Amazon, Microsoft and other providers of Clouded services you should follow the links from the post on The Register for a look. Be aware this is a beta, not all features are available and some of the ones which are may not be compatible with future updates but it is a great way to familiarize yourself with the inner lining of the Google Cloud Platform.
"Google's decided the Chromium OS is its preferred operating system for running containers in its own cloud. And why wouldn't it – the company says it uses it for its own services."

MSI's DS502; one order of gaming headset, hold the extras
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 05:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: msi, ds502, gaming headset, virtual 7.1, audio
MSI's DS502 seem great for the gamer on a budget who needs to play quietly but who would still like some style. At $64 they do have some compromises such as 40mm drivers and a self adjusting headband but they also have the features you want such as plush earcups and virtual 7.1 surround sound. Kitguru found them effective during gameplay and the mic, while not stellar was good enough for in game communications and did not need the input to be raised significantly to be audible. If you are in need of a simple headset with controls that give you enough options to game and want to leave the fancy stuff to the audiophiles drop by for a look at the review.
"Today we are taking a look at MSI's brand new gaming headset, the DS502, boasting 7.1 surround sound, premium build and Hi-Fi level sound quality in a lightweight, ergonomically designed package. How does it hold up? "

G.Skill has a different take on Cherry MX RGB, check out the Ripjaws KM780R
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 03:40 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: input, G.Skill, Ripjaws KM780R, gaming keyboard, Cherry MX, cherry mx rgb
G.Skill have joined the ranks of those who have released a Cherry MX RGB keyboard, you can choose between Red, Brown and Blue switches to accompany the light show. They chose an interesting set of caps, which float above the keyboard allowing more backlighting to show through but The Tech Report noticed that the caps feel like they are rubbing against something. As the caps are replaceable this can be resolved if you do find it to be an issue, but you will lose some light and the keyboard will not be as easy to clean. In addition to having audio jacks and a USB pass-through the optional software allows an immense amount of control over your lighting. Drop by and see if this keyboard meets your needs.
"Established RAM manufacturer G.Skill is branching into gaming peripherals of late. We've already examined the company's Ripjaws MX780 gaming mouse, and now we're looking at the KM780R gaming keyboard. Join us as we see whether this keyboard has what it takes to be a contender in the crowded gaming peripherals market."

Say it ain't so AMD; Polaris may not shine at Computex?
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 01:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: rumour, Polaris, computex, amd
There is a rumour floating around this morning and it is not good. Guru of 3D translated a story over at Nordic Hardware which suggests AMD has stated they will not have any new working cards to show at Computex. The only Polaris hardware they will have ready will be equivalent to the current R9 390 and 390X, albeit at a lower price point. The rumoured problem is that the new flagship cards simply won't hit 850 MHz reliably, which in turn means high end GPUs are right out.
This had better not be true or AMD may find themselves shoeless and GPU enthusiasts will be as disappointed as White Sox fans back in 1919, albeit for different reasons. Those in the NVIDIA camp would do well to remember this has an effect on them as well; why would NVIDIA lower the price on those shiny new 1080's or 1070's when there is nothing in the market to compete with them?
This is a rumour from an anonymous source at an AMD partner, so be sure to take it with a grain of salt and hope that it is completely unsubstantiated; or that a silicon-based miracle happens in the coming months if there is some substance to this.
"Okay before I start on this news-item, I really need to state that this is based on a vague rumor, nothing has been confirmed or denied otherwise. Here's the story, some reports say Polaris 10 can't hit 850 MHz reliably and that availability will be pushed back to October. I sincerely hope the rumor is not true."

Final Fantasy X and X-2 Confirmed for PC... Launches Today
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 07:01 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: square enix, final fantasy
Okay, so we're starting to get just about every main-line Final Fantasy title on the PC platform. They haven't always arrived in good condition, with Final Fantasy XIII having major user interface issues, which were mostly (but not entirely) patched, and Final Fantasy IX requiring the installation of a few Android plug-ins... on Windows. Still, many of them are classics and it's therefore good to have them on platforms that (barring current UWP discussions) encourage perpetual compatibility.
As for its system requirements? They don't specify integrated GPUs, ie: Intel, but what they do list are what we would expect for a game that targets the Xbox 360 and PS3. If it comes from AMD or NVIDIA, and they are still releasing drivers for it, you should be fine. SquareEnix declares a minimum of either a AMD Radeon HD 2600XT or a NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT.
Check out the Steam page if you're concerned, though.
Excluding the spin-offs, the PC is now missing just the original Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy XII, and the upcoming Final Fantasy XV. The rest have arrived on the PC in some form, be it a port of the original or one of their remasters. Still no word on any of those remaining four, though, but it seems like Square is just dropping games onto Steam with a few days of notice now.
Oddly enough, no price is listed (at least in Canada). No idea why.
DOOM Will Receive Vulkan Patch "Shortly After Launch"
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2016 - 06:17 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: vulkan, doom, bethesda
Update: May 11th @ 6pm EDT
NVIDIA has released new footage, which is both higher quality and longer. It is still running on the Vulkan API, although the graphics card has been switched out to the Titan X. The game is running at 1080p, 120-degree FOV, with all settings at their maximum. The game was locked to 60 FPS, but that makes sense -- they wanted it to look good on video.
The video is embedded above. NVIDIA is also self-hosting their original capture (plus a blog post) if you want to see it without YouTube's recompression (or you don't want to stream from YouTube for other reasons).
Bethesda also has their own, new video, which is just above this.
We return to the original news post, below.
At the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 event, which aligns with DreamHack Austin, id Software showed off DOOM running on Vulkan API. It will not make launch, which is this upcoming Friday, May 13th, but the game will be patched to support it "really, really shortly after launch". Ryan was not there, but PC Gamer took video of the presentation and posted it to their YouTube.
Video Credit: PC Gamer
We don't know how performance compares with OpenGL, but the Vulkan numbers (running on the GTX 1080) are pretty impressive. After they uncapped the engine, the listed frame rate stayed above 120 FPS except in the most intense battles, at which point it had momentary drops to about 100-120 FPS. According to PC Gamer, because I didn't hear it explicitly mentioned in the video, this is all at 1080p.
That's... good... to say the least.
This also means a game that officially supports Vulkan will land at around the same time as DirectX 12. We have a few DirectX 12 titles but, while Ashes of the Singularity is a good example, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition was plagued with performance problems, and so was Quantum Break. Tomb Raider and Hitman have DirectX 12 support, too, but it doesn't signal a commanding lead for DirectX 12. It still depends upon the engines, especially Unreal Engine, CryEngine, Frostbite, and Unity, but it's another sign that Vulkan arrived on time.
DOOM Launches on Friday the 13th.

Hmm, this better not be Civ V, take II
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2016 - 03:04 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: gaming, Civ V, sid meier
Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN got a deeper look at Civ VI than just the launch trailer and it is hard to say if this will be a good one or not. The armies will continue to be unstackable but they have created formations, allowing you to group a number of units to move together which will lessen the onerous task of moving your armies around. This may help somewhat but we shall see how they deal with terrain and path calculation. The unstackable trait will now infect cities, buildings no longer stack on top of your city but will be laid out on the map just like improvements. No longer will you be sending out workers to build farms as you have in previous games, instead they will be working on upgrades from your city menu.
Research is now not only geographically based but also reliant on certain resources or upgrades; if they are appropriate your research will go much faster. Diplomacy and the AI have also been changed. There is not enough information yet to make a call but so far the news is worrying and it seems unlikely devoted fans will move away from Civ IV and its mods.
"The game is running on a brand new suite of software, built to be far more mod-friendly than its predecessor, and as well as brand new AI systems, there are a host of new mechanics that will explore and emphasise your relationship with Civ's greatest character: the map."

The management of content in higher education can make or break an institution. In today's world of multiple streams of media all being online and potentially consumed 24/7 it is imperative that your institution's content be provided and presented in a way that clearly conveys the information contained within the site and also provides different and convenient ways to share that same information. Content management in higher education is important for the entire university to understand. From branding and integrated marketing to social media and faculty/staff and student news and updates; serious consideration is being given to how content is organized, searched and presented online within higher education.
Fully open source, well documented and supported and most importantly, FREE WordPress can be a great resource and tool for content management at the institutional level. The key to mastering the CMS and making it work for you is starting with the latest in best practices, strategic planning, tools and resources right out of the gate. But where do you start? You can read documentation and search for your solutions online, or you can learn from those in higher education that have already done it.

The game's afoot at Marietta's Theatre in the Square, where Martin Thompson plays the title character of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure. The Charlotte-based actor's television and movie credits include "The Guiding Light," "All My Children," Billy Bathgate and the upcoming films Mandie and the Secret Tunnel and The New Daughter. Thompson reveals some of the clues in his investigation to play Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's celebrated supersleuth.
— The Complete Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle: "This is the entire canon of Holmes stories and novels, many reprinted from the Strand Magazine with the original Sidney Paget drawings. The original stories are the primary source for all things Sherlockian."
— www.sherlockian.net: "This Web portal links to practically everything available on the Internet regarding Sherlock Holmes, including the many Sherlock Holmes societies worldwide. Members delight in playing 'The Game,' in which Sherlock and Watson are treated as real people, and the stories are all assumed to be true. Also online, the Baker Street Connection (www.citsoft.com/holmes3.html) contains the full text of the 56 stories and four Sherlock Holmes novels by Arthur Conan Doyle."
— Acting with an Accent: "David Alan Stern provides the definitive audio series for actors attempting to master an accent. In our play, Sherlock Holmes speaks with a Standard Public School British accent of the late 19th century, but when in disguise he will also affect the speech of an Irish priest, a Scotsman and a working-class Cockney, among others."
— "Sherlock Holmes" (BBC series): "The BBC series, currently playing on many PBS stations and also available on YouTube, is the most faithful to the original stories, and actor Jeremy Brett is perhaps the finest and most accurate Holmes ever."
— Sherlock Holmes (1899): "This is the original 1899 stage play by William Gillette, who was the first actor to portray Holmes. It combines two of the short stories, 'A Scandal in Bohemia' and 'The Final Problem,' into one and is the basis for Dietz's Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure at Theatre in the Square. It was Gillette, in fact, who invented Holmes' use of the now-famous curved pipe, because he didn't want to hide his face from the audience."

diversity likes it because it can put a stop to gentrification. It can make communities "walkable" and not so car focused. smaller streets-bigger sidewalks. Density can work, as long as it includes plans that take into account all income levels-from the working poor to moderate income families to the young workers who have been priced out of the current market. I agree, growth and gentrification will happen, its market driven.
Do the sentiments in this post really require 1260 words to be expressed? Cause I'm thinking there's more like 250-300 words worth of ideas here.
Dense, indeed.
I wouldn't chest-thump about SF's token low-income population. It's an insulting example that doesn't disprove the relative impossibility of SF's high cost of living.
Exactly, increasing supply lowers prices. The thing with condos is that the margins are much better on luxury then low-income. First it is not that much more to add luxury amenities to a condo and the returns are amazing. Second height=value especially in Seattle with our nice views. Finally bigger units mean less units to sell but the same or better returns.
We have had a pent up demand for all condos in Seattle thanks to hiehgt restictions.
However eventually and probably sooner rather then latter the luxury market is going to be tapped. At that point you will see the construction of more low-income units because a smaller margin is better then an empty building.
(Pst: Will wrote the post on Horses Ass, not Goldy.)
This is what Mossback has been espousing forever now. Keep people from moving to Seattle! I find it hard to believe that anyone is even taking the time to rebut him, since he doesn't have an argument other than "but wouldn't it be nice if the world suddenly reversed itself and I could go back to being someone with a voice that mattered?"
Other than that, yeah. Skip's only relevance these days is being the model for SW's asinine Ask An Uptight Seattlite column.
You need better examples. The Sammamish Plateau is gone, baby. The real action now is in Mill Creek, though that's about gone too, and in farther-flung places like Marysville and Arlington to the north, Orting and South Puyallup to the south. The fact is, we ARE Los Angeles already. The downtown core still matters, but most of Seattle's neighborhoods are irrelevant bedroom communities for workers everywhere in the region BUT Seattle.
Berger's impressions of Seattle in the 70s aren't any more valuable than his impressions of San Francisco (a city he apparently has no understanding of at all). Seattle was a run-down, dead-ass shithole in the 70s, with a crap economy and a crap cultural life. We were about as exciting a place to live as Omaha, Nebraska then. The reason there was no traffic is because there was nothing worth traveling to see.
"ravaged by cars"? really? i think the main disagreement here is that skip prefers ad hominem arguments while erica mainlines hyperbole :)
by the by, since i work in the industry, i should point out that i know plenty of biotech workers who use the viaduct to get to work from their homes in west seattle. carry on, though...
Hmm, I didn't even know there was a still Mossback. Nor did I know there was a Crosscut. And when did Knute Berger become Skip Berger?
Not to second-guess Slog and horsesass, but this impassioned response sounds a bit like Hillary Clinton issuing a detailed press release denouncing Dennis Kucinich's health-care plan.
Except where you drink and eat burritos.
Large balconies, extended warranties, lots of public space, below market cost retail space (so dying businesses like Cha Cha and Bimbos can stay in business) and of course affordable.
And with the coming glut of luxury condo units, those will be more affordable too(relative to luxury units now). So those luxury amenities that are kinda rare now and so fetch higher prices will be the norm in 10 years...
No. 5: Fixed it. Thanks.
Shorter Mossback:
1) Building affordable housing makes housing less affordable.
2) Creating new places for people to live within the city is elitist. Shutting people out of the city (unless they can afford a ridiculously priced single family home) is egalitarian.
3) Planning for growth causes growth.
Good luck with all that, Knute.
Hmmm, supply doesn't create demand it responds to it...
EXCEPT when it is highways
THEN supply creates demand
I feel like one way or another, Erika is trying to feed me a nice pile of 60's horse shit.
What was the Strangers position on judy nicastro's save the low cost housing plan and first right of refusal and rent control and all of her anti developer positions (til the WAMU guy)?
"And yeah, we fucked up on light rail, way back in the good old days1969, when Seattle voters rejected Sound Move."
We, Erica? Were you even here?
Go back to Texas.
hmmm... if a developer could make money of a high rise, and be required to offer low, middle, and upper priced units, that would seem to be a good thing. a major problem seems to be that the uppers don't want to live anywhere near the lowers.
Blah blah blah. Here's the real money graf from the Mossback piece:
A bigger, denser Seattle is no panacea for sprawl; it's no assurance that what we love about Seattle today will still be affordable or even available in the future; it means sustaining a vastly larger and more complex city in an extremely sensitive ecosystem, Puget Sound, that our devotion to growth is already destroying.
I think this is the point of his column: A denser downtown doesn't keep you city from sprawling into the suburbs. To prove it, he uses the example of San Francisco and the emergence of Silicon Valley. In other words, it a city/region is successful -- which all cities and regions aim to be -- it's going to bring in a lot of high-paying jobs and a lot of high-paid people seeking places to live. This pushes out the poor people, to an extent. And this pushes out a city's "charm" (defined as "experiences and memories"), in some capacity.
Rather than attack him on that point, I think he deserves more ridicule for his sociological/environmental take on the argument. If we grow too much, Mossback says, we risk destroying the natural crap of Puget Sound. OK. But who's interested in protecting environmental stuff? And who ends up paying for it? Hint: It ain't the poor people.
What I took from this and just about all coherent Mossback columns from the past 1,743 years is that Seattle is changing into a rich-people playground, and working schlubs who edit alt-weeklies and thus never moved up the income chain can't afford to play here any more.
Mossback calls this a travesty. I call it evolution. Or intelligent design.
San Francisco and Vancouver have some striking similarities. They are both about 49 square miles and both are peninsula cities with ample waterfront. In the 1980's San Francisco attempted to cap new growth by placing strict limitations on new development downtown. At the same time, Vancouver began its experiment with slim residential towers in the central city.
30 Years later, SF faces a tremendous housing affordability crisis. Limiting new growth, forced middle class homebuyers to move into units that would have gone to lower class residents, resulting in exploding housing prices and that have forced poor people forced out of the city.
By allowing new housing to absorb increased demand, Vancouver was able to channel new growth into its downtown while keeping prices more sane citywide. Established single family neighborhoods were spared some gentrification pressure because new growth was steered toward downtown.
ECB is right. You cannot stop growth. There are macroeconomic forces at play that are acting independently of policy makers at city hall. If Seattle were to halt residential growth it would do so at its peril. Housing prices would increase and the city would lose residents to the suburbs.
Moreover, the city would lose out in regional decisions like 520. With a smaller percentage of the region's population, the city would become increasingly irrelevant.
And yeah, we fucked up on light rail, way back in the good old days1969, when Seattle voters rejected Sound Move.
Seattle Voters approved Sound Move in 1996. the 1970 package that failed was called Forward Thrust.
"But who's interested in protecting environmental stuff? And who ends up paying for it? Hint: It ain't the poor people."
Ever heard of the environmental justice movement?
Thanks Frank #21- also over 50% voted for it. And the economy sucked here - 3 years later the famous billboard went up - the freeway had just barely opened and many other Forward Thrust votes did pass - like cleaning Lake Washington.
Just curious but how does Atlanta compare for density, transit modal split, and greenhouse gases etc.?
Skip Berger is the dumbest motherfucker ever to put finger to keyboard in Seattle. (Or actually, on the Eastside, because that's where he lives.)
I am so sick of the "affordability" arguement Mossback and others use. Too bad you can't live at Central Park West, Malibu, Madina, Queen Anne, where ever. If you can't afford it grow up, that toy is not for you. Here's the ugly truth, the truth you are not part of, some one CAN afford it.
"If the market responds to demand (by increasing the supply of housing), housing wont suddenly become cheap, but affordable housing will be much easier to come by than it would be in Skips no-growth paradise."
Not if the increased supply of market or above market housing comes from demolishing or converting the city's affordable housing stock to make way for new units. Which is what's happening in Seattle and every other major new economy city in the world.
"What we do know is that the poor are being driven out of town by a lack of affordable housing. Building more dense, affordable housing will help remedy thatputting a moratorium on new development wont."
Yeah so what are the ecotopia people going to do in response? Their alliances with corporate liberals and downtown developers are just getting us crumbs and pie in the sky promises about livability for all. The root of the problem isn't market forces, but government failure to channel market forces toward a more equitable future. Developers are regulated up the wazoo about design but barely at all when it relates to preserving any kind of real affordability. Pro-density hype mischaracterizes this issue. The name calling or blaming Skip or Charlie Chong is a total distraction from the fact that if greens don't appeal to working class renters, they'll have to get in bed with the devlopers to get anything done, and their ecotopia will be an exclusive yuppie playground.

Gee, that's real enlightened, but what's green about forcing service workers to commute long distances to their jobs polishing the preciosity of your lifestyle? Or teaching your little Oliver and Dakota?
Just figured I'd repost from the thread on this topic below (who says us Lesser Seattleites oppose recycling?) - it's not like ECB has made any new arguments in this post. The more things change...
Gordon Gecko lives - greed is good, all growth is good, and those who oppose us must be EVIL REPUBLICANS!
Y'all might try actually studying the Growth Management Act - it has as its fundamental underpinning this little concept called Concurrency that the City has all but officially abandoned when it comes to accomodating new growth (for example - in order to accomodate all of the growth that occurred in West Seattle over the last 10 years, you NEEDED the Alaskan Way Viaduct to provide tranportation concurrency - and replacing it with nothing runs directly counter to the intent of the GMA).
Been to the suburbs lately? They're still growing faster than Seattle is - high-density condos (many of which are second homes for retirees, by the way) in Belltown and South Lake Union notwithstanding.
If you make it easier and more profitable to tear down the housing that exists (as the City has, and as the Stranger actively encourages everywhere but where its staffers go to drink), more expensive new construction will take its place. Try not to act surprised that the middle class are leaving the City because of this (not to mention the diaspora of people of color from the CD and SE Seattle - been down MLK lately?)
I'll add a follow-up thought, for those still reading - urban density advocates at DCLU and Sound Transit planners basically ran an entire lower-income population out of town in SE. I hope you're all proud...
Posted by Mr. X | April 17, 2007 11:47 AM
You, Will, Gomez, Fnarf and the other Morons in your shabby echo chamber don't have have the brain or writing talent that Knute has on the top of his pinky fingernail.
Oh, and great post @ 26, WF - not that the true believers here will be willing to process it (the Stranger and most Slog posters do a bang up job proving the dictum that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, particularly where land use in general and the GMA in particular are concerned!)
So lets say we do mandate affordability. Not by subsidizing development in inherently affordable areas, but by saying requiring a condo developer to sell x numbers of units below x price. If those condos are actually worth more then that why won't the buyers simply resell for a profit.
If you restrict resale then you isolate those homes from the market driving up prices else were. Instead of bitching out condos in belltown we should be developing an effective development tax structure to generate revenue to build housing were it can be affordable. Couple that with an effective transportation system and your good to go. Being poor means you dont get to live in the most desirable areas. However, with pragmatic solutions at least it wont mean not having a place to live at all.
Savage had a post about the $20,000 1950 house that is now worth $900,000 - that's about a 6.7% return - BTW $20,000 in 1950 was alot - and clearly Seattle is more expensive but the real problem is the division of income in this country and health care costs. Erica's latest favorite industry biotech both adds to cost of health care and adds big bucks into the housing market.
FNARF Wrote:
"The reason there was no traffic is because there was nothing worth traveling to see."
And there is now, Fnarf?
Not if the increased supply of market or above market housing comes from demolishing or converting the city's affordable housing stock to make way for new units.
So what's the alternative? If smaller and more affordable (at the moment) apartment buildings aren't torn down to build larger, more expensive housing, how will that help the laws of supply and demand? Rich people will still want to live here. Demand will go up for any and all decent housing and eventually even shitty apartments will become unaffordable. There are plenty of shitty apartments in San Francisco and New York that rent at market rate. Not tearing down affordable housing does not magically keep that housing affordable.
Gee, that's real enlightened, but what's green about forcing service workers to commute long distances to their jobs polishing the preciosity of your lifestyle?
Development is going to help create jobs. Is it better to preserve affordable housing in the city, at the expense of creating more jobs, than to force workers to commute? All in all, I would vastly prefer having to commute to my job than have no job at all. Besides, our population is going to continue to grow. Someone is going to have to commute. Unfortunately, market forces are going to force poor people out of the city (and to become commuters). That's going to happen whether we desperately try to cling to the status quo or embrace density. Reread my response to #26, if you need a refresher.
The middle class is moving out of the city because single family homes in Seattle are ridiculously expensive. How will capping development help? The only homes real middle class people can afford in Seattle are condos. Put a cap on condos and watch even more middle class people leave.
Perhaps it's time that Grant Cogswell remove his tinfoil hat and receive this message: I live and rent in Seattle. I think even Erica knows that.
San Francisco is a far greater city now than it was in the 1970's, and San Jose sucks but who gives a fuck!
Seattle will be a far greater city in ten-twenty years and Bellevue and Auburn will be huge but who gives a fuck!
Fuck 'em and live and let live.
The real problem with Mr. Berger's lazy, pot shot parade of a column is these four sentences:
"We know that these green-backed policies are making the city more unaffordable. They are helping to drive the poor out of town. They are displacing long-standing communities. They are changing the scale of a once-egalitarian city that featured few poor people, few rich people, and a lot of folks in between. This old middle class Seattle is now seen as unsophisticated, not worthy of protection, backward even."
We certainly don't know that Seattle's housing boom is a major factor in driving up prices, although perhaps Berger is referring to growth management policy as a whole. You could easily make the opposite argument--that the creation of so much new housing in the city has served to limit price increases--although there's no way to prove that.
There are many factors that have contributed to the dramatic rise in housing prices in Seattle since the 1970s and most of them aren't evil. Things like people renovating and thereby increasing the value of old homes and apartment buildings, young white couples buying homes in traditionally Black and Asian neighborhoods, high-tech companies creating new jobs, Seattle's newfound status as a hip place to live, plus just general economic prosperity. Which of these trends does Berger propose to reverse?
Times have changed in Seattle since the 1970s when (as Fnarf correctly pointed out) the city was a backwater. I give a lot more credit to environmentalists who are looking ahead and trying to shape the future than I do to old newspaper columnists who just sit and whine about how things were so much better back in their day.
keshmeshi: my point is that the claim that the current situation is green is untenable.
keshmeshi: my point is that the claim that the current approach is green is untenable.
late edit there.
How long have you lived in Seattle now, Knute? Eight months? Because that's how long I've been gone and when I left you were living in Kirkland. Sorry I missed YOUR big life transition. I left Seattle because it was clear that small-minded people like yourself were the loudest voices in the room and were letting it go to hell (and I don't mean through densification). Welcome to Seattle! Sorry you weren't living there when it was great. What drove you to finally give up on the Eastside?
Probably self-righteous knobs like you.
There's a design review meeting tonight at the Yesler community center (937 E. Yesler) on two big new Broadway projects (6:30 and 8 PM). One's one lot south of Denny on the west side of Broadway, the other's on the east side just north of Pine.

A vast and well-preserved labyrinth of storehouses, schools and courtyards in Aleppo was damaged on Saturday as fierce clashes between security forces and insurgents continued.
For many residents, the old city, with the souk at its center, is the soul of Aleppo, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities and Syria's largest. Aleppo has been staggering for months under a bloody battle that has reduced some residential areas to rubble, and with no deaths immediately reported from the blaze, the damage to the souk pales compared with the recent human toll.
