That $5k Nvidia card is a quadro. It's a workstation card, designed more for CAD or 3d visuals. I'm not sure the difference would actually be that big for games.

I was kinda disappointed they didn't go SSD for the storage, but holy roller-blaing christ..... quad titans!!!

I hope that this momentum continues so that future historians will look back and see this time as a second Enlightenment. The fundamentalists, Cassandras and superstitious holy-rollers need to lurch back into the dark from whence they came.

I guess you could say he's a... Holy Roller

YEEAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! (queue Won't get fooled again riff)

Too bad the other thread was killed.

Also too bad you can tag users, if I could, I would tag marr as "Holy Roller".

I love you marr.

I can't speak for the current military environment because I've been out of the Navy since 1990, but when I was in there were a few times when holy rollers of superior rank tried to "gently persuade" to come to church. Yes, they were "gentle" about it, but it was still very uncomfortable, to say the least. I weaseled my way out of it each time, but it pissed me off that I had to "weasel" my way out of it in the first place. Like he said, I couldn't exactly tell my superiors to get their Bible the fuck out of my face.

I don't care if Christians, Jews, Muslims, Wiccans, etc, form their own religious groups in the military, but I do resent it when they start proselytizing in the ranks.

What in particular? The whole spiel or the use of figurative references? Lemme translate-
-I'm no holy roller
-I know humans, animals, and I know history
-the "spiral" refers to the evolution of societies, empires, iterations of civilizations and their time lines, all have a beginning, middle, and end.
-flagrant and open homosexuality has been invariably associated the decline of great civs, hence, the reference to Belshazzar of Babylon.
-and I added a bit to the last comment, from the court record you reference-
San Francisco is a showcase for many things-lived there for 6 years-
The current mayor(worthless yes-man, run the city into the ground during his admin. faster than others), the one emotionally commenting (sound bites)on this auspicious occasion which was pretty much a unilateral effort on the part of some of the most radical and out-of-synche examples of the homosexual activist community in San Fran, to undermine majority public opinion for the sake of their own-fuck em. They don't deserve preferential treatment-on the contrary, they already have it....a whole town to play in, walk down the streets publicly during city-sanctioned events wearing only a cock-ring and pasties-(not all of em, some still have some dignity)
This is not a sign that a country is strong, healthy, or resolute in furthering positive societal evolution with a view to longevity-on the contrary, it has been an historical invariability towards a lower path-self-realization and actualization being the universal imperative-

What kind of holy roller is this guy? Destroying perfectly good beers?!! Shame on you!!!!

from the youtube page:
The late Kenneth Hagin and not-late Kenneth Copeland are seen here during a pastor's conference in which the crowd was worked up into quite a state. "Holy Laughter", "Spiritual Drinkenness", dancing, thrashing about, falling out, speaking in tongues, mooing (yes, you read that right) and various and sundry other so-called pentecostal manifestions.
It becomes evident that in a room full of preachers and their wives, especially of the crazy holy-roller persuasion, no one wants to be seen as being left out or not being spiritual. So.... these kinds of mass-mind outbursts tend to snowball.
