I'm still convinced that no one winds up using Bing as a search engine except by accident.

Looks like a cold war crisis in Ukraine is brewing :/.

One of my co-workers use it exclusively and says it's cool.

you know that bible quote at the beginning of iron maidens number of the beast. anyway i was listening to maiden just now while trying to wrap my head around the bc6 and 7 texture formats. anyway i realized that 666 would have originally been reckoned with roman numerals. needless to say 666 in roman would just be the sum of all roman numerals from I to D, written out DCLXVI (unless you think it was actually 616 then drop the l). so "the beast" is probibly just a reference to the romans or possibly their war machine. ok john, put down the bong.

Actually, they would more likely use Hebrew numerals or Greek numerals.  Using Hebrew numerals, "nron qsr" (Neron Caesar, the Greek version of the name) comes out to 666, and "nro qsr" (Nero Caesar, the Latin version of the name) comes out to 616.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_the_beast#Neron_Caesar

it was probibly greek. i only figure they would use the roman neumerals because they were under occupation at the time and may have been forced to use the roman system.

but it is easier to reckon the number of the beast than it is to recon these new texture formats (bc6,7).

[Kopachris]

Revelations was originally written in Greek, so yes, they used Greek numerals in the text, but according to the wiki article, Nero's name was equated to the number 666 (or 616) using Hebrew numerals before Revelations was written, and the passages referring to the "number of the beast" in Revelations are probably alluding to that.

Having fun in the Netherlands.

Having fun in the Netherlands.

I do this everyday.

China had a murder streak by (apparently) Uyghur separatists.

In slightly less depressing news, the first commander of Guantanamo is asking to shut it down.

My trousers are tight around the pleasure center and cut my bean bag in half when I sit down.
