So instead of small group we had a mini-fun night.
Only five regulars came, so we went to Lu’ces pizza (I can’t do th accent over the vowel, and I’m too lazy to look it up). It was a good time. We talked a little about what I wanted to talk about for discussion, which was worshiping with your whole life means giving up your sense of entitlement.
The other ironic thing that happened today is I got my GeForce 6600GT video card. It installed fine, and is working beautifully.
I was scared for a minute when it was freezing up on divx playback (part of the reason I got this card was for the divx hardware acceleration). But an upgrade of the Via Hyperion drivers fixed that.
The ironic thing about me getting my video card, is that Nvidia released their next generation of video cards today….effectively making my brand new video card obsolete.’
Maybe that is why I got such a good deal on my card.
Well, the performance of the Geforce 7800 looks pretty evolutionary more than revolutionary. And it doesn’t improve upon the main things I’m going to use the card for. The architecture looks really solid and mature in terms of DirectX 9.0 parts. I cant wait to see what hardware looks like when Windows Graphics Foundation comes out (a.k.a. the name that will replace DirectX 10.0)
I’m feeling lazy, the webpage table will have to wait until lunch tomorrow.
