  1. I sure hope they got a license from LEGO on IBM Developing Lego-like Storage Brick · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Surely LEGO owns the patent on this concept?

  2. You want a fun game you can get out of quickly? on Games in the Workplace? · · Score: 0

    You're looking for Pocket Tanks.
    http://www.blitwise.com/

    Remember Scorched Earth? It just got better baby.

  3. Re:Yay - now get Messenger outta my face on Microsoft Gives Up on Hailstorm · · Score: 0

    Yeesh. Unchecking "run on startup" and "allow to run in the background" in the Messenger preferences seems a lot easier.

  4. Re:good job on Mozilla Tree Closes for 1.0 · · Score: 0

    This is the Mozilla spellchecker project.

    The spellchecker here should land in the mozilla tree probably right after 1.0. It is living here as a refugee from Bug 56301.

    After Mozilla subsumes this code, spellchecker.mozdev.org will live on as a testbed for the ideas being discussed in Bug 129704.

  5. Re:Ahem... the Browser War's on All Fronts on Mozilla Tree Closes for 1.0 · · Score: 0

    Wow, someone hasn't tried Mozilla since about 0.9.3 Code bloat and memory leakage has dropped dramatically lately. Give it another shot when 1.0 hits.

  6. Re:Congratulations...BUT... on Mozilla Tree Closes for 1.0 · · Score: 0

    My right hand is on my mouse, why would I move my left hand way over there? That said, I love tabbed browsing. Is there a way to change that shortcut from CTRL-PGUP/PGDN to something else?

  7. Re:Is this really needed? on NVIDIA Unveils (And Tom's Reviews) The GeForce4 · · Score: 0

    TV Shows and Movies have Motion Blur which helps your eye tie the two frames together and make the motion look fluid. Games don't have that. Also, as others have said, Average Frame Rate is not Worst Case Frame Rate.

  8. Revolutionize Counter-Strike! on Transparent Concrete · · Score: 0

    Just make a Counter-Strike map out of this transparent concrete and people wouldn't need to Wall-hack anymore!

  9. Firingsquad has a very nice write up. on ATI Drivers Geared For Quake 3? · · Score: 0

    Thresh's Firingsquad has a great write up on this (in English!) including benchmarks and image quality comparisons.

  10. Re:Good morning! on Keyloggers Now Classified Technology · · Score: 1

    Get off my back you American-centric sheep! Not all of the world is subject to your government's oppressive laws!

  11. Re:Telix SALT scripts =:-) on New Graphical Trade Wars 'Dark Millennium' · · Score: 1

    Wasn't it Terra that had the colonists? Not sol?

  12. Go figure on More Candidate Answers - Bush and Hagelin · · Score: 2

    Sure, Hagelin bothers to answer the questions but he doesn't make it into the Slashdot poll.

  13. Re:Open Source Chess Programs on Kasparov King No More · · Score: 1

    Be aware that Deep Blue was designed to specifically beat one person: Kasparov. The makers of Deep Blue studied every game Kasparov had on record.

  14. Re:What about... on Guinness Beer Really Sucks · · Score: 1

    And how else are you supposed to refer the product if you can't use its name?

    www.that-beer-that-tastes-like-liquid-bread-suck s.com

    www.that-beer-that-starts-with-g-and-ends-with-n ess-sucks.com?

    I've got to call it something, and I shouldn't be forbid from calling it whatever its name is just because the name is trademarked.

  15. Distribuited Project Favoritism on More On Paid Distributed Computing · · Score: 1

    So is this why http://www.dcypher.net can never get any press on /.?

  16. McWorld on AOLization of America · · Score: 1

    Yeah, "McWorld" was coined by a books named "Jihad vs McWorld" by Ben Barber. It takes a look at the forces at work in the world that are pushing people apart and those that are pulling people together. A pretty good read actually.
