I sit here reading this discussion and I am ashamed. This community appeals to me because I thought it included a general base of intelligence and openess. I seem to be mistaken.
Anime is not all hentai. Maybee the sick fuck who runs your local video store stocked up on hentai, but a mojority of the anime out there is clean. Personally I could care less about hentai, but I do crave movies with PLOTS. Unfortunately american cinema can not offer this.
American cinema is pouring out 'cute' crap like 'the santa clause' and weak crap like 'starship troopers'. I demand more. Mononoke, Gundam Wing, Ghost in the shell, heck even Tenchi Muyo all have deeper plots than anything I see in the USA. Yes you will whine, 'what about matrix or (insert favorite movie here)?' but there are a few jems, but not many. Besides, Matrix is based on anime anyway (oops you watched some anime related materials).
I had hoped that I could see an intelligent discussion about a subject I enjoy, but it seems to all be ranting about hentai.
I can tell you with 101% certianty that I'm not clicking on a mine. The program allows for 1 true move. you will NEVER hit a mine on the first try. it's written into the code.
Try and set it to 9x9 with 64 bombs. You WILL miss every mine.
Minesweeper is math..it is solvable, and I have yet to find a version to challange me. 6 sided blocks too. it's all math that can be calculated logically.
1) the book "The Island of Doctor Moreau" comes to mind
2) I've seen people with less cleanliness than these pigs
3) so the suffering of the human who knows that another human MUST die for them to get better.
4) so are flu shots Kosher? they are based on egg protiens...and I doubt they are blessed.
5) so throw away your glasses, contacts, pacemakers, heart bypass surgery, vaccinations...I don't see in the bible (or any other religious text) where it says: "Thou shalt not genetically modify pigs so you can make replacement parts for humans"
I'm religious, and I've been taught that these animals have been put here to help mankind. even in genesis it talks about man having dominion over the animals. I'd have a problem if they said, "sorry we need to make a Mini-me of you and then kill him so you can live".
There comes a point when you just have to get off the pulpit.
Question at this point is... having pigs so close to human DNA does it constitute canibalisim if you have bacon at breakfast? let alone the crap McDonalds sells for breakfast...well I guess that may as well be.
I'll admit, it is cool but to boil it down it's just crime. actually I recently saw a simpsons episode where homer went off shore so he could get alcohol after midnight. it had people copying videos and stuff in international waters. fitting for a current story.
I tell you, all this whining about "it's almost as big as the computer"...Bah. So what. I've been looking for this kind of idea for years now.
I've put computers in cars but I've been limited to 500mhz max due to cooling problems. Tight confined places with no airflow, like say behind a seat or in the dash, were out of the question. Not anymore.
the micro form factor is perfect and the radiator is a standard in cars. this is a perfect idea that I am embarrased not to have tried it first.
I lost the intrest to mod any further when I found EVERY computer in my home is faster than what I'd have in my car...it was depressing. Now I'm going to look into this more.
And if you wrap it a little further down the (paper) match and put an un-folded paperclip along the side, you form a micro sized rocket engine. Remove the paperclip before launch and you have the tube for the exhaust. You can even make the paperclip into the launchpad.
What a load.... First off anyone who goes through this effort isn't a "humanitarian" trying to save the pocketbooks of his fellow countrymen. $0 (or minimal) investment with 100% profit is why they are doing this.
Boo hoo, they can't afford DVD's, hell I cant afford the latest release either. I only have crap that came from the bargin bin at wallys. I'm not about to strike a deal with Sony so that some Techno starved 3rd world country can see the Matrix.
Honestly, with enough profit and traffic this business brings with it other forms of Law breaking maybee '...gasp, actual murders!'.
Sorry to rant, but this is not some modern day robin hood. it's simply crime.
Problem is, in todays world, playing outside is sometimes quite a risky option. some places I have lived, I don't even like going outside to find out why my dish is out of whack.
besides, it's only recently that Net-gaming has become popular/possible so it's kinda biased as to what this medium holds socially in store for the future generations.
and as for street smarts, the closest I want to get is good round of grand theft auto...I get experience on how to identify a bad situation, and I stay away from them.
thats my 2 cents, please feel free to make your donations.
me too, but not so much....anyways, since I have your attentions, whats up with the bogus channel names? I'd love to use the program, but it crashes all the time.
Slashdot Mirror
and you said it was the keyboard that gave you Carpal Tunnel.
ya I'd say, I must have wasted atleast 2 hours watching this one chick with huge.... wait, was that out loud?
sounds exactly like the old Cartoon network lineup

I get on the net to get OUT of Utah.
Here's a nickel, gimme my 3 cents back.

I've had one of the earlier models for a good 5 years now... damn good mouse but front page material?
All they've added is optics, but the ball is so good on these things that it doesn't matter.
complexity is not an issue.... it only matters how long we wait. if humanity sticks around long enough it will come.

bacon.....
Then you'll need a new heart in a few months anyway. Better have a litter...it's gonna be a long cycle.
so when is subspace comms going to be out...sure beats 2400 baud (or even the effective 300)

Kudos for trying this and thanks for the idea.

Finally a reason Velma can't tell the difference between a 10 foot monster and scooby.
now where did I put those glasses...
for inventory. sometimes eve for insurance tracking of hardwae...heck, they are just fun to tinkerwith
Slashdot effect on reality
Personally I'd like to wait for the translation.
for anyone who has watched Speed Racer, there is a right way, and a wrong way to translate anime.
'All your base are belong to us.'... case dismissed

but green....I just hope he has one of his "mates" do up the release.
Don't get me wrong, as soon as it doesn't dive under incorrect Server info, I'll use it no -matter how ugly it is....but greeen.
it's not wine....thats on all platforms.
It's buggy and someone has random crap data crashing everyone who tries it.
It scares me to think what any GUI for this would look like considering his HTML coding.
