    We see that with a lot of open-source software - as the version numbers get higher, they change by less, never reaching 1.0. Go look at all the .99s on sourceforge for many laughs.

    But does it check ahead for links like this one? I'd kill a man for a browser that blocks that sort of site.

    One important thing to note is the substitute recieving units that some people without the proper hardware use, and the bidirectional mode it supports.

    The only time the USPTO wants to see a working example is when you have a Perpetual Motion device. In this country, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!

    Haha - I was trying my best to completely ignore anything that UI designer said simply because I kept thinking that "MS wouldn't make a close button of infinite dimensions... would they? I'd better not bring that up or somebody'll shoot me down like a Fokker over France!" I forgot about the padding pixels - thank you for the reminder.

    Last I checked, 3G (third generation) was a lot like VR - it was supposed to be incredibly useful, fun, and accessible within a short period of time.

    The last time I saw a decent VR setup was at the 1996 Calgary Stampede. 3G is probably going to be in the same range of elusiveness.

  18. Re:Before it happens... on Apple Wants Your Input · · Score: 2

    Both of these functions are in locations and sizes that tend to keep the excess clicking in that area down - if you're moving your mouse to the top-right corner, chances are you're planning to close something. If you accidentally hit it and stand to lose a lot of work, your app should remind you that this is going to happen and give you an opportunity to save. The send button in either corner of your email window is in the corner for the same reason. Most email programs don't put the send button in the nice broad expanse of text where it's liable to get clicked all the time, do they?

    A 10 is when it takes control of your computer, prints out ads, and has your AIBO tape them up all over your house. It paints your walls with company logos, tapes over your Star Trek tapes with infomercials, fills up your TiVO with the same, and replaces all your vinyls with Britney Spears CDs. It will kick your puppy and attack your kittens. It converts your children to Scientology and steals your beer.

  23. Re:Best of all on New, Flexible CDs Arrive · · Score: 2

    The black CDs are mostly a marketing gimmick - original PSX games are black on the bottom for easy identification. They're also relatively easy to duplicate with a CD burner, but backups require a modded PSX to play. If you burn your backed-up PSX games on a black-bottom CDR, it looks like a real one.

    Dip the steel ball on the end in blue paint before firing. Pretend that the mess on the floor is a spiral. I don't have the ball bearings handy in my dorm room to try this out, but I think you might need to make your own "PIIIIUUUU" sound effect, too.
