2600 Magazine Defeats Ford

narftrek cut-and-pastes the text from 2600's announcement that Ford has conceded the case they brought against 2600 over a certain domain. Our earlier story has some background. A Volvo repair shop near me is named "Island Vo Vo"; the L is silent, you see, because Ford really sucks.

  4. Sad news - John Entwistle, bassist, dead at 57 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard the sad news on talk radio. The Who's John Entwistle was found dead in his Las Vegas hotel this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy such hits as "My Generation," "Pinball Wizard" and "Won't Get Fooled Again", there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly a British icon. He will be missed :(

    That actually doesn't do what you think it does...

    The final ",1" argument will attempt to load the directory listing as a machine code file instead of a BASIC program, so you won't get a useable directory listing.

    What you really want is LOAD "$", 8.

    (For anyone who cares, the Commodore machines made the directory table of a tape or diskette available as a special file called "$". You LOADed the special file from a device (1 for tape, 8 for diskette), and the names of the files were loaded into memory, in the form of a BASIC program that you could then LIST.)

    Heh heh, fond memories. Those were good days, I adored my C64, but I sure wouldn't want to go back!

  13. What's an import and what is a domestic car? by legojenn · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The Japanese companies build cars in North America (Honda Civic is made near Toronto). Some designed exclusively for North America (Camry is an example (or was an example)) . Japanese companies put their names on names on North American made vehicles (Mazda Trucks made by ford). American companies put their names on vehicles from Japanese companies (Geo Storm) and there are joint ventures (CAMI - GM/Suzuki in Ingersoll ON). North American vehicles can be made in either US, Canada or Mexico with American Canadian or Mexican or even foreign parts. It's so confusing. It's even more confusing when considering North America. Does crossing the Detroit River or whatever divides the US & Mexico make a difference? (Under NAFTA, it would be no.) Is a car from an American company made with Mexican built parts, assembled in Canada, a domestic vehicle or imported one?
