  1. Now it's time for the next step... by Millennium · · Score: 1

    Impressive. Now, let's see what can be done with MindStorms-based computer cases. That should make for something very interesting indeed.

  2. /. has been really messed up lately... by FiReStOrM · · Score: 1

    I dunno if anyone else has noticed this, but I've been getting tons of broken links, garbled pages, self-referencing links (that should be referencing the next comment), hopelessly fubared formatting, and so on recently. Also stories that appear and disappear, as well as comments that do the same. Now the icons along the top bar are shot.

    /methinks something's wrong with the back-end DB...

  4. What happened... by jwilloug · · Score: 1

    Several articles disappeared. The UltraHLE one, the Microsoft link, the FPGA supercomputer, Falwell and the Teletubbies, Internet2, and a couple others. I think the software burped, /. hasn't been particularly stable the last few days.
