The HDD companies treat 1000 bites as 1KB, 1000KB as 1MB, etc.
They're using the 'decimal' definition of 'kilo', or 1000, on through 'mega', 'giga', and so on.

I hope she doesn't suicide, as the little mermaid dies in the original story.

It's not going to happen.

I wouldn't make fun of the Vita while trying to defend the WiiU - lol

I think it's good that they are doing the story from both perspectives.

Heck, more war movie should do that. Make us ask: "Why are these wonderful people fighting eachothers?! They have so much in common... like killing and...

....no that's about it.", err... I ment... Ah forget it.

MORE WORK?

I'm not trying to be flippant; this is a really good introduction to the term.

Just last night I was talking to my wife how at work I'll randomly click through my bookmarks if even just for a minute while waiting for my work's software to finish a task. She thought that it was very odd after I…

"White people, as a collective, seem to be missing an empathy chip when it comes to POC." I had this exact same feeling after the Trayvon Martin verdict. Not because of the case itself, but because of the pure disgusting hatred I heard being spewed from white people's mouths during it.

We are. We are all taught our superiority. White people dominate every aspect of American life except sports and hip hop. So that white people at university ask their black friends which sport scholarship they came in on. You don't have to like it, and you shouldn't like it, but the problem isn't that Evie Havok is…

I think Connor's awesome. I caught me better than Altair did.

To the history/lore of Assassin's Creed, where certain elements of world religions are true.

Those Who Came Before were the native race to Earth, they designed and built humans as their slave labour/work force.

Some of TWCB ended up breeding with humans, and their children gained certain abilities of TWCB (such as Eagle…

When everyone follows this advice, the Vita happens. We need the kind of people excited for a console launch. I'd be one myself if my car hadn't broke down a few weeks ago. Had to cancel my preorder.
