Not sure why this was moderated as `troll`? I guess a few florida voters clicked on the wrong value, eh?
Its interesting but true that its hard to get the police to take a crime any more seriously when its been recorded. A friend had a bike stolen, from right under a camera (this is in the uk), went to the police, and had to argue for ages to get them to look at the tape.
"Just because Sega stopped production, doesnt mean it's dead. "
Thats exactly what it means. You`ll be getting no new games after about the summer, it`ll be hard to get it fixed when the cd drive buggers up or you drop it. The developers didnt like it in the first place, they`re hardly going to be gagging to develop for it now.
I think its excellent news - should give the PS2 an extra push again the X-box. I wont be buying a microsoft box!
I dont know - as long as they only kill each other, and keep all that crap off of the news, i`m not bothered.
Then again, wouldnt it be a lot cheaper to just try and get these pigs/spooks/politicos into PC games?
"Absinth is an alcoholic drink containing Wormwood extract that is banned in every country in the world except for the Czech Republic and Andorra. It's a hallucinogenic drink."
Come to England, and get some in any number of shops - try Compton street.
Its certainly amusing that one one hand you have a plant like Cannabis, which has been subject to more tests than any other plant, and which has not been connected to a single death, and the verdict is `it may be harmful, we cant legalize its use`, and on the other hand we create all these new gm plants with bits of fish and got knows what else, and the verdict is `we`ll try them and see if anything bad happens`.
You dont think its got anything to do with money, does it?
...The yanks get an early start with the Indecent communications legislation...oh, they`ve stumbled, the civil rights groups put a stop to that... And heres Echelon..what can stop this Brave New World order...
Here come the plucky Brits with their RIP act..things are looking bad for the yanks (and the british subjects, but screw them!)...
The French now, calling the stewards attention to Echelon...they`re not happy, not happy at all...
But whats this? Carnivore? DMCA? The yanks are back in front!! Is there no stopping them? Have they no shame?!
I make nothing from making music (at the mo!!), but believe me - *lots* of people would like nothing more than to dump MS and use Linux for everything!
How long is Japan? Actually, not sure of the distance of my journey, but it was of about 3 hrs 40 mins. Didnt seem like we were travelling that fast though.
I did a `last post` once but no-one noticed it!! It has to be on an old discussion, but one which isnt archived. Gaping loophole though - no lameness filter problems!:)
"..I've always loved the idea of these things, though I imagine [living in Britian] that i'll never get to see one;o( "
What, a train? I`m sure they`ll be back to a `normal` service soon.:)
I have to say, spending xmas in Denmark last year (rather than the UK, where i live), was amusing - getting a train that ran from one end of Denmark to the other (Randers -> copenhagen), on christmas day, and leaving/arriving within a minute of its scheduled time, was a new experience for me! Can`t we do *anything* right?

Isnt there going to be a fight between Torvalds and Stallman? Not sure who my moneys on... :)
"Let them attempt the FUD.. it won't work and they know it"
If only the NASDAQ dealt in the rating of pithy replies to pro-ms posts on SlashDot, and not the financial worth of stocks in a company!
"Seriously, if you put enough monkeys in a room with enough typewriters, you will get Shakespear's sonnets"
If thats true, how do you explain the content of the internet?
Yeah, we`ve got `hardcore visual basic`, how about `Snuff perl`?

I`m sure Sega know what they are doing. I mean..er...um...

One thing they didnt change was a way for astronaugts to get away from the falling craft they were in before it hit the sea and they were killed.
Stick a lava lamp in front of it, and you`re sorted!
Sorry, but its only a matter of time before Pacman, Defender et al work their way into the olympics! :)

"I bet you have a hobby other people would consider silly."
Yeah, trolling SlashDot with ignorant nonsense.
"What use is this? "
Its just a laugh. Don`t worry about it.
"For me this shows the problm with open source"
Whats it got to do with open source?
..people were asking for elegant code yesterday!
I make nothing from making music (at the mo!!), but believe me - *lots* of people would like nothing more than to dump MS and use Linux for everything!
...anyone here tried an `Xploder` bar? Chocolate, but with `space dust` style carbon dioxide rich sugar inside. Mental!
"No, that doesnt work, either."
Really? Which compiler do you use?
I`d have used a case statement, instead of the if..else if business!
