Scratch that, false alarm. I knew it sounded way too fishy (because I saw the photos of the crash site and there is no way he could of survived).

Someone spread a fake picture of "Paul Walker" alive, but injured greatly and with stitches. My friend showed me it right before I made that post, and I didn't get time to check it out at the time. But I checked again, and the picture is fake. Paul Walker, unfortunately, really is dead.

There was also some confusion of regarding a satrical website reporting Paul Walker to be dead RIGHT BEFORE he actually died. So yeah, there was some weird confusion here.

So someone made a hoax to make us think a real death was a hoax...huh.

You screwed up royally on the last two, where you compare resolutions to the bit level of the graphics.

It's typical that the second I mentioned '1337' as a page number, my post starts page 1338 :P

I wasn't comparing. Beyond 64-Bit, there is no real development colour-wise. I had to transition into the modern age somehow, so I just went with the pixel counts getting higher.

Keep in mind, this is part of a report with text that actually explains this, among other things.

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

So I was just listening to "Gotta Go Fast" on Youtube, and in the comments section, people are posting nothing more than "Paul Walker".

I fucking lost it.

Why would anyone post comments about Paul Walker on Sonic video? It is sad that he died but he has nothing to do with video.

Oh my - This wonderful man has lived a very long, well-deserved life, and has done countless wonders for this world. May he rest in peace.

I did my big year-end school project on Nelson Mandela in ninth grade, so I have for a while certainly been well-informed of his accomplishments and legacy, which makes the news all the more shocking.
