BenQ lanseaza proiectoarele cu tehnologie laser pe piata din Romania

Am fost azi la lansarea proiectoarelor cu tehnologie laser de la BenQ. Au avut apa minerala si pateuri. Dupa ce mi-am potolit setea (si la propriu si la figurat ca nu imi mai puteam lua ochii de la monstrul ala alb) a inceput prezentarea unde s-au laudat unii cat de tare e firma lor in Romania si in Europa pe piata monitoarelor si a proiectoarelor. Cu toate ca imi plac cifrele, trebuie sa recunosc ca nu prea s-au chinuit sa faca prezentarea un pic mai primitoare asa ca pana la partea in care au inceput sa ne spuna cate ceva despre caracteristicile noilor proiectoare am cam motait atent.

Five reasons why Microsoft will not deliver a touch-based controller for the next Xbox

Rumors. I love them. Rumors fuel our imagination and give us something to talk about. This one is about the upcoming Xbox console from Microsoft or, well, not about the console itself, but its controller. They say that Microsoft is testing a tablet like controller, which is basically an HD screen surrounded by the traditional 360 buttons and sticks. I don’t think this is the case and here’s why.

One more ACTA Fool

„Now them cops tryna throw you in them county blues BOY whatcha gon do? ACT A FOOL”  (Act A Fool lyrics by Ludacris)

Cu toate ca titlul ar putea sa va conduca la concluzia ca sunt un suporter al acestui acord, va marturisesc ca nu este asa. Voi incerca pe parcursul acestui articol sa fiu cat mai obiectiv cu putinta, iar asta pentru ca scopul meu principal este sa analizez textul in cauza si sa va ajut sa-l intelegeti mai bine.

Am sustinut ideea ca orice actual sau viitor protestatar anti-ACTA ar trebui, in primul rand, sa stie exact de ce protesteaza si impotriva cui. Nu te poti numi protestatar pana cand nu citesti textul macar o data. Poti sa citesti cate articole vrei si sa vezi sute de filmulete pe YouTube. Nimic nu va putea inlocui textul original. Din momentul in care ai luat hotararea sa iti exprimi opinia (sub o forma sau alta) pe marginea ACTA, trebuie sa citesti mai intai textul. In caz contrar, nu esti decat un papagal obosit care da din cioc pe Facebook ca ACTA e un rahat.

The French Have Arrived! The new line of vehicles rolls onto World of Tanks stage

London, UK, Paris, FR and San Francisco, CA (5th January, 2011) — Wargaming.net, the award-winning videogame publisher and developer, is proud to present the long-anticipated line of the French tanks available in the all-new Update 7.1 for its free-to-play action MMO World of Tanks.

French vehicles will invade World of Tanks in two steps, and their first line available as of today features light, medium, and heavy tanks. Just as their historical prototypes, the in-game machines will have unique features and modules, including automatic loading system and oscillating turrets that will enrich gameplay diversity and require different tactical approach from players.
“Our players already know how to play with the “big three” tank nations, but the French are all-different,” says Mike Zhivets, Lead Game Designer for World of Tanks. “You’ll have to reconsider the way you think tanks behave before they let you tame them. And that’s what we love them for!”
The second part of the French vehicles will appear later in 2012 and will include tank destroyers and SPGs.

Prototype 2 – Official Blackwatch Communication and Key Assets

Alex Mercer

Alex Mercer was a brilliant scientist who worked for Gentek (the scientific arm of Blackwatch) prior to the initial Blacklight viral outbreak in NYC.  He worked directly on the Blacklight virus, increasing its deadliness by 1000%.  When news-leaks threatened the security of their work, Blackwatch closed the Blacklight project and ordered the entire staff killed.  Mercer stole a sample of the virus and escaped but was later cornered at Penn Station in NYC.  Rather than surrender, Mercer smashed the vial releasing the Blacklight virus.  The Blackwatch soldiers gunned him down and he was pronounced dead.

However, Mercer’s body was infected with the stolen Blacklight virus and was soon reanimated, albeit with complete amnesia.  The virus granted him super human abilities.  He worked to discover his past and later saved the city by defeating Elizabeth Green and foiling Blackwatch’s attempt to nuke the city and its citizens.  Afterwards, Mercer left NYC and observed humanity, pondering his own status amongst them.

Alex Mercer is an anti-hero both in deed and personality.  Mercer’s motivations and plans are utterly personal, and rarely take any human cost into account.  Even throughout the initial outbreak event, Mercer killed and consumed innocent people without remorse.  His attitude is grim and impatient.  He’s never shown any significant affection for anyone except: his sister, Dana; and his one-time girlfriend, Karen Parker (whom he later killed for betraying him to Blackwatch).

In short, Alex Mercer does not make friends easily and his goals for both Sgt. James Heller and the human race remain shrouded in mystery.

Key assets after the break.
