Ask Xtra!

Archive: 23 posts


Hello sackmen and sackettes, today we have an awesome new thing I invented;

ASK XTRAHUMAN! That's right! Ask anything anything at all related to LBP2.
Lt's get a move on-
RULES (oh, goodie.)

-NO BAD QUESTIONS (i mean that in an offencive way) like: xtra, why do you suck at making parkour?

-try to use your best spelling instead of "xtra how u mak ea good/ cAr plz?" Nope.

-be creative!

- "why does randombadexampleforasackperson have bad teeth?" I don't care if he doesn't have teeth at all. Don;t say that.

HAVE FUN!

Is it better to use 4 bits for each decimal place value or to use wider bit widths for arithmetic with large numbers?2011-10-15 23:28:00

If you mean BCD vs. binary, it depends on the application. BCD makes for easier translation to a human-readable format (assuming you prefer decimal to hexadecimal), but more complicated to do the actual arithmetic.

BCD also wastes over a third of its bus width, which given the thermo limitations of LBP would mean your "large numbers" could not be so large when expressed in BCD, and unless you really need massive parallelism, you can just mux onto particularly complex translation circuits (esp. those with a huge number of add-5 modules), so, in general, I'd say avoid BCD if you can.

Obvious, really.

What does it say on the back of the matchbox object in LBP1?2011-10-16 01:46:00

What does it say on the back of the matchbox object in LBP1?

It says...


GREAT ALL BLACKS
1930's
JACK GRIFFITHS

50 years ago Jack Griffiths was a valuable defensive back for the Poneke Club, Wellington. He toured the United Kingdom with the 1935 All Blacks and captained New Zealand in the 1936 Internationals here against the Wallabies. Jack Griffiths served on the NZRFU for many years after retiring as a player.

Chosen by Peter Sellers of Radio NZ Sports.
Bryant & May (N.Z.) Ltd.

The front of the box has been changed, presumably to avoid advertising. It should read "Bryant & May Beehive Safety Matches - Made in New Zealand", but presumably they never expected anyone to read the back.

Thank you.
I find it interesting that someone talks right after he says that.

Which one would you prefer; logical puzzles (you know, puzzles that are very logical and straightforward to solve.. if you realize the trick), or puzzling logics (logical networks whose meanings are hard to decipher)? 2011-10-16 07:59:00

Finger decoration from the monster pack.
Is there anything else?

Indeed we do, for the aesthetic verisimilitude of sackperson genitalia is one of the most profound and frequently debated philosophical conundrums of 21st century society.

Hey Xtra. I think you have gathered by now that some folks are just having a little fun with this. Most of us are really pretty decent even though we may not always come across that way.

I see that you are pretty new to the forums, and that may be part of the reason for the ribbing. This sort of thread pops up every so often, even with more seasoned members, so I guess people decided to have a little fun with this. If you want to answer some real head scratchers, go check out the help forums. Plenty of questions there.

Anyway, welcome to the forums. I hope you stick around a while.

True. Here are some examples.
--------------------------
For instance, utilitarism clearly states that lifelike umm.. things are usually wrong, due to the tendency cause mental agony in viewers (obvious, if we take notice of the most probable audience, and their psychological development; and even if calculated with crude statistical math, leads to the conclusion that things are highly likely to teach inappropriate models of operation, if represented in an indiscriminate way).

This could also be extended to deontological ethics (personally, I wouldn't want this to become a universal law in most cases; that is enough to make most applications immoral, even though I cannot easily define whenever someone is being used as a tool here; has Sackperson ever actually consented to anything we do?).

However, some theories also disagree. Epicureans would state that things could work, if utilized in a moderate fashion (so they do not get old). And, of course, egoism would agree with anything you will want (however, it has its own set of problems, explained below)

And, of course, if we forget the notion of objective morality (only one answer is right) and jump into the reality (I personally like this viewpoint ), we can pick any answer we like. Only drawback is that it is your personal viewpoint, which may not extend to other players. Which then opens up a whole new set of questions (how others will react? what are the pros and cons? is it worth it?)

(Yes, I was bored; autumn vacation means lots of spare time)

Or, for those who don't own such pack, the Da Vinci tower. It's in the scenic section, I reckon.

LOL!

Of course we do. We must know the proper anatomy of each and every Sackboy. It is very important for every little child to know the right anatomy parts. If not, we will have Sackgirls voices being very masculine.


oh, and he's just messed up like that
