Probably the 80" projector by a whisker. The plasma would obviously give a better picture, but my family's not had much luck with plasma TVs (had two Samsung ones, and they've had reliability issues). If the choice was an LCD instead of a plasma though, I'd go with the LCD.

Would you rather play Rock Band or Guitar Hero?

Reason I asked that last one is I actually have a 42" plasma, and an 80" projector.... and I don't know which to sell :p

I don't really know the difference between the 2 (don't play video games), so I can't really answer it... :(

But I'll roll it over to someone else... :)

Rock Band. Drums all the way.

Would you rather date a gorgeous model with a bitch attitude, or an ugly person with a great personality?

Rock Band. Drums all the way.

Guitar Hero has drums too (and vocals, but not keys). :p

I'd rather date an ugly person with a great personality.

For full price (?50 here in the UK), would you rather buy a game that uses a concept brand new to gaming with every chance of failing, or the latest instalment in a series with a proven track record, but doesn't push any boundaries and plays it safe?

The first option.

Would you rather be on Facebook or Google+?

Yes there was.. either you have unlimited money for whatever you want, or you get everything free.. anyways...

Sorry, somehow I missed that! I'd take the unlimited money...

Would you rather be pretty or beautiful?

Is there a difference?

Google or Bing?

Send it over to me :)

Haha, Bing!

I see what you did there :D

--------------------------

Latter sounds better

A new processor or more RAM

Didn't got that question, sorry. :(

Virtuoso basically means very highly-skilled. ;)

As for your question, definitely Michael Jackson.

I can't really think of another question at the moment, so I'll let you come up with one. :p

    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
    • Meta announces a major leadership change at WhatsApp by Pradeep Viswanathan Meta has announced a major leadership change at WhatsApp, with Will Cathcart stepping down after seven years of leading the world's largest messaging platform. CRED CEO and founder Kunal Shah will take over as the next global head of WhatsApp. CRED is an Indian fintech company focused on creditworthy consumers. As part of the transition, Meta is also making a minority investment in CRED through its Series H funding round. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Will Cathcart will remain at Meta and move into a new role focused on building new products from the ground up. Cathcart led WhatsApp during a major growth phase, helping the app reach more than 3 billion users worldwide. He also played a key role in expanding WhatsApp’s business offerings while keeping privacy and end-to-end encryption central to the product. Meta’s Chief Product Officer, Chris Cox, said Kunal Shah was selected after a search for a leader who understands WhatsApp’s global scale and future potential. In a leaked internal memo, Cox described Shah as a “serial founder” and one of India’s most respected entrepreneurs, adding that he brings “entrepreneurial energy” and a strong product mindset to the role. As part of the Series H funding round, CRED is raising ₹8,550 crore, or about $900 million, in a round led by Meta. The funding values CRED at ₹43,239 crore, or about $4.5 billion, on a post-money basis. It is important to note that this investment will not give Meta access to CRED customer information. Kunal posted the following on X regarding his new role at Meta: Although Kunal Shah will be stepping away from his operating role as CRED CEO, he will retain his personal shareholding in the company.
    • It wouldn't be hard for me to turn off my TV, if I had one. For one thing, I never scroll Instagram. The only reason I have an account is because Meta created one when it merged the account systems for its various services.
