    What colour is the sun??

    The sun is yellow... I always thought the moon has a yellowish tint too actually. Our eyes also tend to automatically correct colors, things that look white may not actually be 100% white.

    360 individual console specific framerate fluctuations

    Of course. *shrug* Never thought of bookmarking that. The kind of things you pick up when visiting sites for something else. In any case, if performance differs, and hardware doesn't, it has to be the quality of this hardware wouldn't you agree?

    360 individual console specific framerate fluctuations

    Low quality memory chips. At boot time the 360 runs a few tests to see how fast they can run reliably and will let them run at that speed. Some go faster than others.

    Lockup advice

    Whee, update. Underclocked the CPU down to 800mhz, no freezes for hours. Back to 2400Mhz, freezing within a few minutes. Looks like it might be the CPU going bad. Or maybe heatsink needs replacing or fresh thermal inferface goo. Can that stuff wear out after a year or so already? Still, CPU...

    Lockup advice

    Well it worked fine for a week, now it's doing the lockup thing again. I am still not sure what is causing the problem. Voltage readings appear stable. It's definitely not an overheating problem. Can't find any more dust ;p I think the biggest clue is my DVD drive. It's acting funny sometimes...

    Lockup advice

    Well... I just did that yesterday... and so far it's holding *crosses fingers* It wasn't that dusty... but it appears to have been the problem anyway...none of my comps has locked up due to being dusty (and I've seen some really bad ones =D) before so wasn't the first thing that came to mind...

    Lockup advice

    Ok.. I been experiencing some strange lockups on my comp yesterday, and I'm not sure what might be causing it. My comp freezes in the middle of something, anything. After that it may or may not boot when I reset it. If it doesn't boot, it hangs before anything at all is displayed. It may sound...

    The Mr. Bean method. This involves a bucket of paint, lots of newspapers, and dynamite.

    What does dividing by zero really mean?

    Eh well no matter what theory you can come up with you still can't divide something by 0 simply because there's no place you can send the parts to. You can't share a pie between people if those people don't exist no matter how hard you try!

    Is this universe infinite?

    Since everything else inside the universe is finite, I'm going to assume the universe itself follows the same ideas and is finite too. My theory is that outside the universe there is absolutely nothing, a wall through which nothing can move. Stars bounce off the edge. They leave stains which are...

    Wow, all this math just to say you can't divide something into 0 pieces :D

    I've just realised Sega doesn't have much planned for DS/PSP

    I've heard rumors of a Phantasy Star Online for the DS. Haven't heard anything in months so dunno what happened to it.

    Nintendo must lower DS hardware and software prices.

    It really doesn't look bad for Nintendo here. Why are you posting high QL PSP pics vs low QL high compression DS pics anyway? :p And the DS can run a whole racing championship without having to swap batteries. So there haha =P

    Eh, the DS isn't a replacement for the SP either way ;p
