For a type 1 diabetic this needle represents life, love and
happiness, a little different to how needles are normally represented.
stanley nichols, kawaiimandi, and 2 other people added this photo to their favorites.
While your description accurately describes one half of what a needle represents to a diabetic, it misses the other. That other half is the pain not only of multiple daily injections, but also that of a permanent reliance on drugs and insurance companies.
I dig the pic though (it indeed speaks to me), and thanks for thinking of us!
Thank you for sharing your loooooooovely photo !
commented with FlickrComment
thanks for the comment we know and understand the pain nothing hits harder than knowing my daughter and the sons of daughters of others go through this daily but, I think it is important that we realize how much has changed in the treatment to give everyone a little better chance of happiness I maybe crazy but my glass is always half full :)

I'm guessing what may be new in that "pro" version. I think it's for Europe only cause softwares are released for europe counties, one of them is mine ( http://page2rss.com/page?url=www.hua...doListSoftware) and spain.
Maybe somebody knows something more about it?
They also have some Linux package for it http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwid...oftid=NDE1MTM= still don't get it what that package do Drivers or something like source code..

If you're already on a FTTN service, it's just a $25 charge to change speeds, there isn't another activation fee.
....other threads seem to indicate that even if you have 16mbit you cannot upgrade to 25mbit without absorbing another 100$ fee.
I'm also waiting for this. It shouldn't cost $90 to switch from a 6 meg service to 15. As it stands right now, it would be cheaper to cancel my service with Teksavvy and sign up with another provider like Acanac.This makes to no sense.
Should have something to help soon.
That fee is not Teksavvy's choice. It's a Bhell thing. It's what you get when you want to use Bhell's Fib internet.
Bell's reply to JF clarifies this. Going from ADSL2+ to VDSL2 will require the full fee because a technician visit is considered required by Bell. Going from VDSL2 (moving between 15/10, 25/10, and 50/10) will only require the $25 speed change fee.
it's purely anti competitive. it probably does legitimately cost 100$ for bell to send someone, so they break even
Bell's claim is that the line conditioning is required to move to VDSL2.
From legacy. No?A switch from ADSL2 to VDSL shouldn't require a full because the person on ADSL2 (or fibe) already paid the "conditioning" fee (plus pots splitter +, +,...).
What is the actually speed limit for ADSL2+? Is that the 5mb (supposed to be 6) offered to GAS customers or is there a higher speed available for non VDSL?

Systems and methods are disclosed for enabling a switched digital video (SDV) client to intelligently generate and transmit reverse request in a SDV system. In this manner, reverse channel traffic is reduced. During rapid channel changes using the up and down keys on a remote control, the SDV client waits a predetermined amount of time before generating a reverse request that is subsequently transmitted upstream to a headend server. By way of example, changing broadcasted channels quickly will not generate a reverse request until the predetermined amount of time is over. In the event that a changed channel is an SDV session, a program select request is immediately generated in order to begin receiving the SDV session.

This invention relates in general to broadband communications systems, and more particularly, to the use of delivering content in a bandwidth sensitive switched digital video system.
Broadband communications systems, such as satellite, cable television, and direct subscriber line (DSL) systems, are now capable of providing many services in addition to broadcast video. Additional services include video-on-demand (VOD), personal video recording (PVR), high definition television, online gaming, telelearning, video conferencing, voice services, and high speed data services. In order to economize the available bandwidth in a system, a switched digital video (SDV) system may be utilized that includes devices and methods that deliver selected services only when users actively request the services. In this manner, services that are rarely viewed or only viewed by a few subscribers are only broadcasted upon request, thereby allowing bandwidth to be available for more frequently watched services.
Accordingly, the increase in the number of offered services, including SDV services, has increased the traffic in the reverse channel, which can be any data link such as DAVIC, DOCSIS, DSL, or Ethernet, to name some different channels, when each individual subscriber requests a service. The increase in reverse channel traffic is a concern for system operators since it can result in dropped packets, system instability, and impaired quality of service for the subscribers. Thus, there exists a need for minimizing reverse channel traffic when possible in order to maintain a stable communication system.
The invention can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the invention. In the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
Preferred embodiments of the invention can be understood in the context of a broadband communications system. Note, however, that the invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. All examples given herein, therefore, are intended to be non-limiting and are provided in order to help clarify the description of the invention.
The present invention is directed towards enabling a switched digital video (SDV) client to selectively transmit reverse signals in order to minimize the overall reverse channel traffic. More generally, an SDV system is a system and method of maximizing the number of services, which carry programs, using a minimum amount of bandwidth. The SDV system and method allows popular services to continuously be broadcasted throughout the system, while other services are broadcasted only by request and then only if there is available bandwidth. By way of example, a specified group of popular services, such as ABC, CBS, FOX, HBO, etc., is broadcasted to every home and business in a system regardless of whether or not users are watching the service. Another specified group of services may be considered SDV services. These selected SDV services, for example, may be services that are rarely viewed or may be local services that do not always have programming available. In this manner, when an SDV client selects to receive an SDV service, an SDV server determines the available bandwidth and, if available, authorizes the broadcasting of the program for the requested service. In accordance with the present invention, the SDV client is further optimized to selectively reduce reverse signals and is described in further detail hereinbelow.
In an SDV system, the SDV server 210 requests a group of shell sessions designated as a TSID from the DNCS 215. The DNCS 215 then creates the session group utilizing at least one QAM that is designated to be the SDV QAM (e.g., SDV QAM 320 d). More specifically, the DNCS 215 transmits information regarding the created session group, which may include from one (1) to 32 shell sessions on the same RF carrier frequency, to the SDV QAM 320 d based on the SDV QAM's overall bandwidth capacity. The shell group information contains the list of session identifiers in the group and the total group bandwidth. The DNCS 215 then returns the service group, which may include up to 32 session identifiers, and corresponding tuning parameters (e.g., RF carrier frequency, QAM modulation format) to the SDV server 210. Additionally, the DNCS 215 performs as a bandwidth proxy manager to ensure that the SDV QAM 320 d shares bandwidth among all services, i.e., VOD sessions, SDV sessions, and broadcast services, as necessary. For example, the SDV QAM 320 d may also transmit VOD sessions in addition to SDV sessions.
The SDV server 210 manages the shell group session names and associated identifiers and the group bandwidth. More specifically, the SDV server 210 can use any of the SDV session identifiers within the established shell group and assign any amount of bandwidth for SDV sessions so long as the assigned bandwidth does not exceed the shell group bandwidth. Once the shell group is established, the SDV server 210 can begin to bind SDV programs according to a subscriber's request to a transport stream. The SDV QAM 320 d binds a given SDV program to a transport stream by issuing a membership report using a multicast group destination address (GDA) associated with the program. The SDV session is deemed established when the binding is successful. The SDV server 210 may also provide alternate content source IP addresses in the event that the connection with the first content provider is disconnected. The SDV server 210 also specifically specifies a program name (e.g., SDV 1), a program or session identifier (e.g., 000a73df0c9a00000000), the amount of bandwidth (e.g., 7 Mb/s) required for that program, and an MPEG program number, which specifies the actual program identifiers of the selected SDV program. Additionally, the SDV server 210 may request the SDV QAM 320 d to unbind any SDV program by sending an unbind request and the program identifier. Furthermore, the SDV server 210 may also query the SDV QAM 320 d for bindings, and accordingly the SDV QAM 320 b responds back to the SDV server 210.
It will be appreciated that if the SDV service has not previously been requested by any of the plurality of STBs 250 and, therefore, is not being broadcasted, a barker may be displayed on the television 500 until the SDV service is received. Barkers may also be used when an STB 250 is not authorized for the SDV service; when there is not enough bandwidth for the SDV service; and when the SDV service is no longer available, to name some examples.
Notably, a reverse request, i.e., a program select request, is transmitted from every STB 250 to the SDV server 210 with every tuner or processor 420 change, such as when filtering and displaying any service or filtering and storing streaming sessions in memory. Notably, other program select requests are transmitted when the STBs 250 are making channel changes using the channel up and down keys on a remote control. For example, a user may be surfing through the channels using the remote control up or down keys. Every push of the key changes the channel and, therefore, changes the tuning frequency. For every channel change, a program select request is generated by the processor 420 and transmitted to the SDV server 210 regardless of whether the selected program is a non-SDV session or an SDV session. For non-SDV select requests, the SDV server 210 logs the occurrence of the channel change and releases any resources used by that STB for the previous channel, if appropriate.
In accordance with the present invention the processor 420 delays generating and/or transmitting a non-SDV program select request for a predetermined period of time during channel changes. In this manner, unnecessary program select requests are reduced, thereby reducing reverse traffic flow. More specifically, non-SDV program select requests may be delayed or not transmitted because no response is needed from the SDV server 210 to tune these programs. The tuning information for non-SDV programs comes from conventional system information data transmitting periodically on the network for all broadcasted programs. The processor 420 of the present invention receives a request from an IR input of the STB 250 to change the channel. The tuner system 405 changes the RF carrier frequency accordingly and provides the broadcasted streaming content to the decryptor 430 for decrypting prior to displaying on the television 500. From a predetermined channel map, the processor 420 determines that the streaming content is a broadcasted service rather than an SDV service.
As an optimization for reducing reverse network traffic in cases where a user is rapidly surfing from one channel to the next using the CH+/−keys, the STB may delay delivery of a program select request to the SDV server for non-SDV channels until a predetermined period of time, e.g., 3 seconds, after the channel has been selected. If the user changes the channel before this timeout period expires, then no program select request will be sent for the previous channel. In cases where an SDV program select request had previously been sent for the channel that was originally selected by the user prior to initiating a series of rapid channel changes across one or more non-SDV channels, the STB must ensure that the SDV server 210 is notified that this program has been deselected within a period of time, e.g., 5 seconds, of the user surfing off that channel. The STB notifies the SDV server 210 that a previously requested program has been deselected by sending a program select request message specifying a program identification of zero (0).
During the channel changes, if the processor 420 determines that a channel is changed to an SDV service and the SDV service is not already being broadcasted, a program select request is generated immediately to request the SDV service and is transmitted to the SDV server 210. The SDV server 210 binds the requested SDV service to a shell group and transmits the SDV program to the STB 250. Subsequently, when the channel is changed away from the SDV program to another program or when the STB is turned off, the processor 420 transmits another program select request to the SDV server 210 discontinuing the desire for the SDV program, and the SDV service can be unbound from the shell group.
Accordingly, systems and methods have been provided that enables an SDV client to optimize its program select requests. It is understood that though the examples described in the description can be customized by a system operator depending upon current business practices. For example, the predetermined time delay for the transmission of a program select requests regarding a broadcasted service may be changed to suit the system. Additionally, other devices can be used in the SDV system rather than the devices used and described in the description, such as, for example, a cable modem or a computer can be used to replace the STB. It will be appreciated that further embodiments are envisioned that implement the invention, for example, using all software or adding modes for additional features and services.

Just a short message to wish you all a Merry Christmas. Thank you for supporting me through this blog for the past year. May you and yours be blessed this holiday season.
Irish blessings for you!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Stitch Fix #10 – For the Win!
You may have noticed the lack of Stitch Fix posts after #5. I think in the nine previous shipments, I've kept two items – a pink top and a blue cardigan. I was so disappointed in the items I had received I couldn't even write about them anymore. Lots of ill-fitting, wrong season, or PRINT items. I actually took a little break but then came back for #10…And I loved it!
A Valentine's Gift for You (Novel Excerpt)
I thought on Valentine's Day it might be nice to share most of one of the romantic (not necessarily erotic) chapters from my novel. Just a little somethin' somethin' out of Compliments from a Stranger. I hope you enjoy this little excerpt and look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Give Yourself a Valentine's Gift of Self Love
Oh you love haters! We've all been inundated with the "I hate Valentine's Day" naysayers, haven't we? Complaints about the commercial aspects, how it's a "Hallmark" holiday (which, BTW, it's NOT. Do a little research, would ya?) and, worst in my eyes, the "I'm single and this day SUCKS" people. This is a note to you…and to those who love Valentine's Day. And to even those who are ambivalent about it. Basically, it's a note to everyone. :)
All Dreams Matter, Big or Small
I've had a secret dream since I was about 10, one that I honestly thought I'd never be able to live as an adult. But, this year, I will have the chance to cross off this "bucket list" item – PERFORM IN CARNEGIE HALL!!
New Year, SAME Me
This year my resolution is – NO resolutions! But, there will be a word of the year and there are GOALS. But, no resolutions.
Christmas Magic from the 'Me' Generation
Many people will say that the current generation of young people are in the "Me Generation". That kids are only about themselves or that they feel entitled to luxuries as staples in their lives. That they're ungrateful or uncaring. But, today, I want to tell you about a group of kids who make many adults I know look like chumps.
Story Building: One Word at a Time
Tonight while waiting to see the Christmas lights, the family and I played a word game. The rules are simple…build a story with each person providing one word in a round robin format until two people finally say "The. End." Sometimes, the adults needed to remember they were playing with children, which resulted in some skewed stories.
Here are some of the results:
In Search of Christmas Spirit
Hello? Christmas spirit? Oh, Christmas spirit? Where the hell are you??
I'm searching high and low trying to find the spirit of Christmas this year. It's been very elusive and it's already December 16. Whoa. Sixteen days into December, the month of Christmas and love and giving and I'm simply NOT feeling it. Like, not at all. Not a single damn bit.
And I think – think – I'm figuring out what's missing. And it pains me to admit this because it was a choice I made several years ago.

Ritz Carlton
Rooms are large and well appointed and staff are friendly. We had several hotel disconnects this past weekend which is unusual for a Ritz hotel but nothing significant.
Check out Frenchmans street for some hot Jazz!
NOLA @ the Ritz
Great location!! Steps from street cars that go to Garden District and Midtown. Also, next to the French Quarter.
Staffs at the hotels are friendly especially at the bistro and bar. Our room is spacious with great views of the French Quarter and
the river.
Great hotel
Clean hotel, great location. Very quiet. Nice bar and live music on the weekend.
No coffee in the room and room service is super expensive with all the added fees.
Would not recommend
Nice but not the best
Our first trip to New Orleans. Hotel location was great -- on Canal St one block from Bourbon. Service at hotel was excellent, the room was clean and spacious. But given the Ritz Carlton name, I would have expected more amenities such as in
room coffee, free internet and fitness center, etc. When we checked in, room wasn't fully stocked with the usual soap, shampoo, etc. Had to ask for some items which they provided without any hesitation. [...]
Don't bother renting a car. Bring comfortable shoes and walk. Also, use the street cars -- convenient way to get around.
Great place to stay
We went to dinner at K-Pauls
not that great
doesn't prepare for all room guesses
Mardi Gras @ Ritz Carlton
Great location, right on the parade route. 1 block to Bourbon Street. First class treatment by the staff
Awesome stay!
My best friend and I have always wanted to go to Mardi Gras, and at the last minute, we were able to put together a trip. Believe it or not, the Ritz was one of the more affordable hotels!
The room was very nice and relaxing. Once in the room, we
couldn't hear a peep from any of the adjoining rooms despite the fact that it was a full house. From our corner room, we could see Bourbon Street, and the location is about 2 blocks north of where all the parades were going by (in other words, close enough to easily get to the action but far enough away that it didn't feel like a zoo when we stepped out of the lobby).
We had a really great time, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. If we go back next year (we had a blast!), I will definitely book there again.
New Orleans trip
We went for Mardi Gras. This is the third time we have stayed at the Ritz Carlton for Mardi Gras since Katrina. We love the location, the hotel itself, but they still don't have the staff to give good service to this many people. Last year our
room wasn't cleaned on two days. This year it wasn't cleaned on one. Someone pulled a fire alarm at 2 a.m., I got up, went down the hall to the front desk. They said some prankster had done it. In spite of this, we enjoyed our stay--and will want to stay again. Just not yet what we expect of this establishment.
Very nice
Staff was very courteous and helpful. Room was beautiful and had a great view. We were in town for Mardi Gras and several parades ran right in front of the hotel. Great location. Only negative was that we were not aware parking was an extra
One block from Bourbon Street. Many places to eat, shop, attractions and festivities nearby.

You were sitting on the small front porch of your home when an urgent letter arrived for you. It was from the Phantomhive estate. Quickly ripping into it, you noticed the letter was from Sebastian. The letter read as follows:
Dearest companion,
I am dreadfully sorry for the lack of notice, however, I am in dire need of your assistance today. The young master has planned for a rather large get together for the investors of his company without my knowledge. I am one hell of a butler, but this is simply too much to do on my own. I do hope you will be able to help me today, I trust no one more fully with this task.

There is a good chance you could be denied entry. I would recommend contacting a Canadian attorney in the city of destination or an immigration attorney in a city close to the US/Canada border.

If you are not satisfied with your attorney, you should make a change. It is critical that you are comfortable with your attorney and that your attorney is responding to your questions in a prompt and courteous manner. The ease of transition will depend on where you are in the litigation process.

The Promise of TRIP™: Improving Quality Through Better Data
By Chris Meenan, CIIP
Among the things I am most excited about at this year's SIIM Annual Meeting in Orlando is being able to participate in ongoing discussion and collaboration surrounding the SIIM initiative known informally as TRIP™ (Transforming the Radiological Interpretation Process). For those not familiar with the history of TRIP™, Bradley J. Erickson, MD, PhD, provided an excellent blog post last fall; more information is also available in the SIIM Innovation navigation tab.
At a high level, the goal of the TRIP™ initiative is to focus attention on and enhance clinical quality, workflow, and process improvement efforts through access to better data. We hear a lot about "big data" these days, but not so much about better data. What does better data mean for the imaging community? For many of us who struggle with day-to-day requests for operational data for our departments, the challenge is to get comprehensive information from our systems to answer the clinical or operational question at hand. Often the data needed for measurement of key workflow metrics must be obtained from disparate information systems. The challenge is made more difficult by the fact that the same data point may have different identifiers or naming conventions in different systems (e.g., "Exam Complete" in one system may be called "Taken" or "Ended" in other systems). Moreover, access to operational data may be limited or hidden behind "canned reports" or may be entirely unavailable. These and other technical issues were identified by SIIM members as the biggest obstacles to creating useful quality and business analytical frameworks that can be used across institutional and industry platforms to effect real change and improvement.
SIIM's approach to the TRIP™ initiative was to start with the most basic and obvious problem: tackle the workflow issue directly by researching and creating a standard language (or lexicon) to describe workflow steps in radiology. Existing lexicons, like RadLex, serve to describe physician-based aspects of workflow quite well, but the multidisciplinary expertise of SIIM was able to expand this focus. The TRIP™ Committee, including physicians, IT specialists, and industry participants, created a catalog of workflow steps and suggested standard metrics to calculate several performance measures based on that lexicon. At the same time, the technical committee members proposed (and implemented) a basic method to consume TRIP™ data through Web services. SIIM then created a sample dataset of more than 17,000 test patient records with key workflow steps populated with data based on the TRIP™ Lexicon, hosted by a cloud services provider for global access.
Those who were present at the 2011 TRIP™ Demonstration will remember the air of excitement in the crowd in the exhibits area. Two vendors (GE and AGFA) each used their own business intelligence tools to pull data from SIIM's test data set and displayed the same results for the appreciative imaging informatics experts in attendance. This demonstration clearly proved the potential of the project and set the stage for new activities at this year's Annual Meeting.
Now is the perfect time to get involved in the SIIM TRIP™ initiative! One of the greatest strengths of SIIM – and in many ways what makes us unique as a society – is the diversity of our membership and the various strengths on which we can build. We need the participation of clinical, technical, and quality experts to take our early successes from the last year and develop TRIP™ to reach its full potential. If we are successful, we will be the first area in medicine to be able to analyze workflow across previous institutional and technical barriers and provide the kinds of data that regulatory agencies, business analysts, and planners will demand as a routine part of IT operations in the future. Stop by the SIIM TRIP™ demonstration area in the technical exhibits to talk personally with a member of the committee or stop by the TRIP™ Group Session on Saturday, June 9 at 11 am. I look forward to seeing everyone in Orlando!

I spent 1 month coding an android app, and then I lost the source code in an hdd crash. Well, those things sux, but hopefully I managed to find an old apk build of this app. I was able to recover part of the source code by extracting the classes.dex file, decrypting it with dex2jar, and then opening the decrypted file with java decompiler (jd-gui.exe)... I remained amazed when I saw that my source code was so easy to found...
Now I wonder, why people use smali to reverse apk files instead of dex2jar+jd-gui ??

Wow, what does one write on one of these without embelishing it like a job resumee. Well suppose that I should start by saying that my family and friends are the most important thing to me. life is about grace and understanding, we have all made mistakes. I enjoy reading books, any kind of books, if I can make it to a book store I can be set for half a day of entertainment. I love music, it has played a strong part of my life, I especially love the old singers and standards like frank sinatra, dean martin, and i also enjoy alot of newer music too. The only music I don't really dig is death metal. I love researching into other cultures and histories, there is nothing better than a good debate, and i am guilty of liberal use of sarcasm in daily life. If anything I would like to meet some new friends here and get a new perspective on the world.

Michele Lalande and Gilles Trillard-the author-photographer team that brought us The New Eighteenth-Century Style and The New French Decor-return with 29 all-new homes, decorated in the modernized, eclectic version of Pompadour decor that has become so popular in this young century. The resulting blend of ostentatious luxury and repurposed treasures, the natural and the manufactured, is a warm, lived-in style that perfectly embodies the comforts of home. Interest in this iconic French style of interior decoration was revived following the restoration of Madame Pompadour's apartments at Versailles early in the last decade. Characterized primarily by excess and opulence and often dismissed as gaudy at the expense of taste, traditional Pompadour style incorporates lush velvets, precious and semiprecious stones, gilding, and elaborate handcarving to dramatic effect. In its modern incarnation, these antique elements are allowed to show their age, tending more toward the shabby chic.A" Gilles Trillard's delightful photographs reveal interiors of breezy elegance, where Pop Art and industrial design mingle with patinaed highboys and carved candelabra; texts by Michele Lalande highlight the playful, surprising details that personalize these spaces. A perfect companion to the two previous volumes, Eighteenth-Century Spirit proves that the old has been made new once more-and it's here to stay.
Michele Lalande is a stylist and journalist who has contributed to shelter magazines in France and around the world. She lives in Paris. Gilles Trillard has been a freelance photographer for 25 years, specializing in interior decoration. His work is regularly published in magazines such as Elle Decoration and Campagne et Decoration. He lives in Paris.

Cool about the caching.Be Together - Not the same.

1. The new store is HTML 5, so better with media functionality.
2. It was broken in some countries (pages/downloads wouldn't work) so likely instead of rolling it out to just some they decided everyone should be on the same layout.
Think GTAV, that game is an install.
Now look at Uncharted or God of War they cache.
You don't notice the install going on in the back and when you exit nothing remains of it.
This was used for these games to remove ingame load times.
10-26-2013 #6
It isn't clear about the caching... If it's doing it in the background, meaning not having to wait for a 1GB install, etc., then this is awesome info.
Meaning, I put the disc in, and start playing, and it's caching data as I'm playing. Never had to wait for an install, etc. That will be a HUGE bonus. HUGE.
PS Store. Doesn't matter if they say it's going to be changed. It better be changed for the good.

Did find this which semi confirms it.
Shuhei Yoshida: Yes! So it's already been done. Like the PS Plus service actually does it, where it's downloaded but it doesn't install. So it's kind of half-baked. We wanted to make it so people don't have to wait for anything. If you have one hour of your time, you want to spend one hour playing games, and that's our goal.

Sony's Neil Brown told Develop attendees today that the same technology which allows PS4 to play a game as it's downloading from the internet will also allow the PS4 to play a game while it's being installed from a disc.
"A similar system also works on Blu-ray, chunks are automatically copied to the hard drive in the background," said Brown. "This means that after the first few minutes your game can rely on having faster read speeds from the hard drive."
Brown said that this "provides a better experience for players" because it will be "a completely background process".
He added, "They don't have to wait for anything to install before playing the game. The game will launch as soon as the disc has been put in the drive."
10-27-2013 #13
That doesn't sound like it's good for the HDD.
10-27-2013 #14
Admittedly I could be wrong though but it is where I had thought this would play into it.
Otherwise, why bother?

Do we know for sure that the cache is temporary? I haven't seen that said by Sony. It seems they're just emphasizing that it happens in the background.

cache is not a problem. Considering the PC is always working constantly in that regard and I have yet to have a fried HDD because of it.

Will users who are downloading games digitally benefit from this or is this strictly for those who are staying with regular retail games?

i honestly would rather they installed...i hope we get an option to install if we want to. there has to be some sort of a performance hit when playing a game. i highly doubt that you'd be installing 10GB of cache each time you play the game. maybe it does it while it's playing? possible but complicated.

so caching makes sense.
10-27-2013 #24
Does anyone know if this would apply to digital downloads in any way? I guess it wouldn't unless it downloaded the game in chunks.
