  1. Did they even storyboard this thing? (spoiler) on Review: Tomb Raider · · Score: 1

    OK. She gets a note from her dead dad, "You must destroy both parts of the triangle." Why? If she destroys one, then the movie is over. So you have to wonder why in the hell she gets the first triangle half and keeps it. Oh, later on someone suggests that she could use the triangle herself to see her dead dad. Hello! Perhaps that might have made it seem reasonable to not destroy the first half right away.

    The opening robot fight scene was absolutely idiotic. It would have been much better to introduce her father at that point and set up the movie a little.

    "Plastic will remain open, serving up some user generated content, which is apparently the cheapest way to operate on the net."

    I guess /. is safe for the time being then. :)

  3. Re:but MS can't build a handheld GUI on Crusoe To Power Microsoft-Based Tablet PC · · Score: 1

    /*There's no easy way to switch between applications without quitting back to the main menu and getting a list of all the applications. */

    Just tap the Start icon from whatever application you're currently running and you'll see a list of the last 6 applications that you opened. Clicking an icon will bring a program into view. Once you get used to it, switching apps is pretty easy.

    You might warm up to the machine if you tried some of the things you can't do very easily with a Palm(MP3's, video, etc). Audio books are my favorite feature.

    HTH.

    It's not up to date with the very latest, but it's not bad.

    >> Hey, wait....this is Unix.....

    That's the first thing I thought when I saw the story.

  6. Re:lighten up on Adobe on Adobe CEO on Open Source · · Score: 1

    There is a beta available of the Gimp for Win32.

    http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/

    The latest snapshot is dated 19990726. This has been a very stable release for me. I guess it needs a little more publicity. Zach!
