    Yep, this has been in every issue of Men's Health for years.

  3. Some goodies I play and wish I could still play on What Are Your Top Five 'Comfort' Games? · · Score: 1

    1) Bolo! I know there is a PC version. It rocked as a RTS multiplayer game. Could play with colorblind friends too.
    2) Original Pirates! on Mac.
    3) C&C:Generals
    4) CS:Source
    5) Super Mario Kart. Good party game.

  4. Re:Translate Sign Language on Full Body Dance Dance Revolution · · Score: 1

    You make it sound so easy. There is a huge difficulty gap between sign language and DDR. There is a difference between matching silouettes and parsing actions.

    Here's a published paper http://www.morgellons.org/AJCDerm1.pdf (American Journal of Clinical Dermatology 2006, Volume 7, Issue)

  6. Re:Any reason to switch? on FreeBSD 6.1 Released · · Score: 1

    I have always been under the impression that the NFS server, especially v3, on FreeBSD was much better than the Linux version. I don't know if this is still the case with the 2.6 kernel.

    You get redirected to www.google.com, at least from the US. Fuck the damn commies. All of those educated people who were leading the protests now have nice apartments and BMWs. They have been bought. Comrads, welcome to the ratrace.

  9. Re:Simple solution on Taiwan Irked at Google's Version of Earth · · Score: 1

    BTW, Taiwan's pro-unifying party was once the `take over the mainland party' and is now the `don't piss them off since we've got money over there and don't rock the boat' party. No one there is really in favor of unification.

    This is a common phenomenon with people from communist China. They deny the censorship and the oppression. It's a mix of nationalism, brainwashing, and fear.


    The notion of being critical of their country is not compatible with being proud also.



    If communist China is such a wonderful place, then why doesn't Taiwan want to join? You can't argue with these people. Even if you were standing beside them while CNN is on and it blacks out because they are doing a story critical of the commies, they will blame it on solar flares.

  11. Re:I can just see it now... on New System to Counter Photo and Video Devices · · Score: 1

    I would not be surprised if some of the letters and the background look the same in near IR, that is, the paints reflect the same amount. I've had some patterned shirts look solid to a near IR camera.

  12. Re:I love the bit in the article on Sun Unveils 64-bit Server Line · · Score: 1

    The only problem is that Dell support for Linux really sucks ass. We have gold support and not a single tech has been able to solve our RAID driver problems. Do and google search and you see on Dell's own mailing list that many people are having the same problem but no solutions are forthcoming from Dell. I'm really regretting getting this overpriced box with really slow I/O.

    Ah, Libertarian. Well then, nevermind, it's a case of mistaken identity. I'm out to abuse fascists.

    Oh oh! And he pops his head up just in time to catch the cumshot! I will say this about conservatives: they have a good sense of timing.


    Libertarian actually, thank you. I'm glad you had a chance to whack off this morning. I will continue to fight for your right to do so. BTW, that was quick.

    Hahaha slashdot bully. What a riot!

    Duh. Instead of being pedantic, why don't you try to wrap your brain around the point?

    Is this your response to points you cannot defeat?

    I'm a smart Yankee

    You want to be tough on crime. Tell us: what sentence do you recommend?

    You want specific? He can stay with you during his rehabilitation. :)

    What a totally senseless, trolling thing to say. I could see "If you'd been victimized yourself you'd feel differently." (Personally, I have. It was really jarring, and nobody was ever caught, and I eventually got over it.)

    You are the exception. Many who espouse leniancy live in nice neighborhoods with very low crime. They are they hypocrites that don't have to deal with crime on a daily basis and pat themselves on the back for being so enlightened.

    Apologies, I'm a stupid Yankee. I'm not sure what a "Cheap Labor Conservative" is.

    and spend more time thinking "I wonder what can be changed so that people don't see crime as an opportunity."

    You mean the best opportunity? Crime always presents an opportunity. There is always some chance you can get away with it and profit from it.

    This guy was a thief. If the owner was home, he'd probably run away. Just because a guy steals doesn't mean a guy kills.

    Burglars around here tend to bash-in heads when they find someone home. Are even British burglars more civilized than American burglars?

    Did you read the article? BTW, he was out on bail during this little excursion. Only theft? What if the owner was home at the time? What if the wife (if there was one) of the owner was home at the time -- alone?

    Bleeding heart liberals need to be victimized more often...they are clueless.

    And yes, white collar criminals get off too easily too.

    Only an idiot would make the assumption that anyone breaking into one's home is not a threat. Of course, shooting someone who is fleeing is wrong, but anyone that is illegally in my home is fair game.

    Fast? Yes. But, only 11 months for someone who is VERY likely to do it again? Only in Europe.
