    I like the gore in Left 4 Dead 2 better. Not cartoony, or exaggerated, but very well done.

  9. Re:Welcome Slashdotters on NESBot: Tool Assisted Speedrun On Real Hardware · · Score: 1

    No it's not. Well, the effects are a bug, but it's an oversight. If you do the long crouch jump repeatedly, backwards, you can gain as much velocity as you want. If you do it though you may glitch through walls, which this takes advantage of, heavily.

  10. Re:Holy bug exploitation on NESBot: Tool Assisted Speedrun On Real Hardware · · Score: 1

    There are runs like that.

    But usually they have a non-FUBARed version to go along with it. I recommend watching at least the first and last, for the biggest WTF factor.

    But most games DON'T have giant bugs like this. Most of them also would look really close to the human speedrun version, if the glitches are not too egregious to do. A Japanese person did do a 0 star speedrun under 10 minutes on a real console with no programmed controllers (i.e he used his hands and a controller alone).

  13. Re:...wow on Online-Only Currency BitCoin Reaches Dollar Parity · · Score: 1

    Now, what could make this thing interesting is if they allowed CPU jobs to be sold for bitcoins: i.e, X sends Bitcoin Co. a job, pays Bitcoin, and people that complete job gets coins. There's a lot of details to be fixed about it though (malicious code, how to spread jobs so that there isn't a race condition and minimize race to win bitcoins, etc.)

  14. Re:Who cares? on Cisco Linksys Routers Still Don't Support IPv6 · · Score: 1

    No they won't drop IPv4, period. The upgrade is supposed to happen, but nobody knows when. The reason for the upgrade is, as people keep on mentioning and warning for the past years, that there are no more IP addresses for v4. IPv6 can already work with IPv4 out of the box: it translates from 192.168.1.1 for example to ::ffff:192.168.1.1.

    Soon, ISPs will have to NAT people. If you are browsing the web, it usually won't affect you at first. If you want to do online gaming, SSH, telnet, or access any IPv6 only site, then you will run into problems. Eventually there's going to be reports of intermittent internet outages and problems connecting if nothing is done.

    This is the issue, and it needs to be taken care of, or connection issues will arise.

    The onus is on you. You need proof for your dubious claims before I can even begin to fathom how sounds can do that to living things (especially since they are already everywhere around us anyway, solely because there are living beings).
