  1. Re:Who cares... on Sci-Fiction Channel To Do Myst Miniseries · · Score: 0

    Stills? Go to your local Computer store and pick up realMyst. Think of running around in a real time rendered environment. And you can go pretty much any where you want on the islands, insted of being limmited to the paths. Just make sure you have a decent video card...

  2. Re:Game/Film conversions on Sci-Fiction Channel To Do Myst Miniseries · · Score: 0

    I'd like to see something from the Mechwarrior series. There are quite a few good books, and FASA has a very well developed world to work with.

  3. Re:popping noise on Public CD Copying Machine in Australia · · Score: 0

    You paid $0.10 a copy? whereever you went, it was over priced. I only pay $0.05 for mine.

  4. Re:Cheap clocks that set themselves on Inventors Wanted (Add To The Wishlist) · · Score: 0

    It's a perfect aplcation for Blue Tooth. All you need is one device that gets the time (Digital Cable box), and every thing else in range would relay it around.

  5. Re:Not safe enough for Air Traffic Control??? on Wall Street Embraces Linux · · Score: 0

    more like red and yellow with big puffs of black...

  6. Re:Linux not really "free"? on Wall Street Embraces Linux · · Score: 0

    Just because we can download and install it for free doesn't mean Red Hat is going to support it for free. The licensing agreements probobly have more to do with service than the actual software.

  7. Re:Damn on Wall Street Embraces Linux · · Score: 0

    nope, I got to it just fine

  8. Re:Before it happens... on Apple Wants Your Input · · Score: 0

    Deleting a file. I'm not talking about the send to trash can that is is the right click, what if I realyy want to delete it. I selct it, then I hold shift and press delete. It skips the trash can. I've been doing it for years, an old norton utilities for win 3.x or 95 (I forget witch) would wipe delete if you held shift. Then in 98, to skip the trash can, you had to tap shift, then hold it before pressing delete.

  9. Re:liquid fuel? on NASA Satellite Stranded · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Maybe they didn't put it up w/ the shuttle. Lots of satalites go up on a normal rocket.

  10. Re:It just goes to show... on Soviet Moon Rocket · · Score: 0

    there is nothing wrong with being a "nice guy"

  11. Re:Does it mean we can pirate legally on Canada to Raise Tariffs on Recordable Media · · Score: 0

    So why don't they just raise the price of the CD/DVD's to cover the money they are losing?

  12. Re:What??? No Natalie Portman trolls??? on Star Wars II Trailer Online · · Score: 0

    I want a naked and petrified Natalie Portman with hot grits down her pants!

    how's that?

  13. Re:starwars.com too on Star Wars Episode II Trailer Tonight · · Score: 0

    yes it is, it is here

    btw, this is a direct link to the file.

  14. Re:starwars.com too on Star Wars Episode II Trailer Tonight · · Score: 0

    I know it's bad form to reply to myslef, but I wanted to point out that is seems to require registration on the site.

  15. Re:starwars.com too on Star Wars Episode II Trailer Tonight · · Score: 0

    looks like it is here: http://www.starwars.com/episode-ii/video/trailers/ clonewar/index.html

  16. Re:In Depth? on Command and Conquer Generals · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Hopefully they've improved the AI as much as they improved the graphics. I realy hated having the computers hit my power plants w/ the big laser when they hadn't even had a unit near my base. And then the fact that they don't seem to have to search for me, they just know where I am...

  17. Re:Unlikely on LED Lights: Friend or Foe? · · Score: 0

    Yes, but how "on" is it. They arn't just measureing on and off, but the slight fluctuations in brightness.

  18. Re:Google's Sponsored Links on Search Engine Payola · · Score: 0

    It's the LCD screen, I was having trouble seeing it on the computer at school with a flat screen.

  19. Re:Google's Sponsored Links on Search Engine Payola · · Score: 0

    You forgot that the background is yellow for the sponsered link.

  20. Re:Walking on Segway Hits the Auction Block · · Score: 0

    If I could afford it, I'd get one for running around campus. It would be especialy helpfull when I go in for my mid day class, and end up at the back of the parking lot.

  21. Re:Wal-mart is a tough customer on Wal-Mart, Moore's Law and Open Source · · Score: 0

    I'm guessing, but I think it has something to do with weather the product actualy sells, as oposed to just sitting on the shelf and taking up space.

  22. Re:COX.NET has at least one BOFH. on Bastard Operator from Hell II (Son of the Bastard) · · Score: 0

    Slashdot eats closing tags sometimes. I bolded something once. It looked fine in the preview (I actualy checked that time), but when posted, it wasn't closed.

  23. Re:The most important fix... on mozilla.org Releases Mozilla 0.9.8 · · Score: 0

    Why open a new window? Middle-click in Mozilla to open a new tab. Even in Windows.

    If only I had a few mod points... (+5 Funny)
