Like 8 AM on the east coast and 5 AM on the west? It not really a technology thing.

live would've been 7:30am EDT and 4:30am PDT , hardly not a good time to get ratings.

I watched all the live HD feeds BOB (Beijing Olympic Broadcaster ???) from Beijing on satellite in HD was awesome,

NO Commentating and NO Commercials, it was just like being there, I watched a lot more of the olympics this time than I ever did before.

All I can say is womens gymnastics never looked so good :rolleyes:

So what?

I WOULD Watch it! Hell... time mean nothing to me!

Many people would also watch it if it's LIVE! Even at these hours!

Like I said, if that time is inconvient (Which I can understand), then just do an Encore at Primetime, like there is anything else better to show on TV anyways? The OC and CC probably BEST thing to watch on TV now days!

...The OC? Are you female?

Again, do an Encore at Primetime again. Problem about ratings... = Solved

Except they can probably get better ratings by showing normal morning programming that people are used to and just waiting til primetime to show the Olympics. You're just being selfish.

"NO Commentating and NO Commercials" Best way to watch sports on TV (Y) Lucky you.

There will be a bid for 2012 and I think NBC will win, I think Fox and CBS were in the last bid.

"The OC and CC probably BEST thing to watch on TV now days!" :x

JediXAngel I dont know what to say...

I will say NBC did good with http://www.nbcolympics.com/. The silverlight video was good even with my connection.

Sorry if I spoilt things for anyone I honestly thought it was live all around the world at once!

Dont even worry, everything about the olympics have been on the front pages of any major news website before its even on TV lol. I should have changed my home page (Yahoo) but im lazy. Hell even if i went to NBC website to wath live video they will have results for an even that hasnt been showed on TV.

The Office? How I Met Your Mother? Top Gear? It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia? Scrubs?

Even so (But I don't watch them myself) NONE of them air in the Morning anyway.

Mostly, Primetime are just filled with repeats of these shows during the summer, anyhow.

ya, bob was good.

yeah i was noting that to my mom and sis..he guy was dancing! i thought that was in bad taste. it's like they didn't REALLY want a person in a wheelchair to represent.

BTW i'm officially announcing these Olympics as a non-event because the fuwa were completely discarded for no reason. the fuwa have always been, are and always will be a part of the Beijing Olympics and i will troll anyone who says otherwise till kingdom come.

I really enjoyed these Olympics. I didn't really plan on watching much of them, but I could hardly pull myself away from the TV the entire time.

The one thing I hate about the Olympics though is that now we have to wait another four years :(

    • No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux. I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux DXVK.
    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
    • That's a good number until the game you want to play is not in that list. 
    • So, the logo means No ducking AI?
    • For sure, humanity us highly unlikely to survive the helium flash. Even if we have colonized moons in the outer planets by then, that is such a monumental change in heat output, coupled with the destruction of Earth, it's unlikely we could be fully prepared for changes of that scale.
