  1. Speed 2- cruise control on The Year In Ideas · · Score: 0

    hmm, that stuff with speed dating, imagine sth else getting done in 7 minutes? ;-B
    wonder,how many women/men, would crave/hate it happen? ;-P

  2. Re:How about posting a book review for _adults_? on The Atlas of Middle Earth · · Score: 1

    book review for adults, like "Kama Sutra" or "Yoga for those in love"
    or even better "How to be a hardworking ant"
    Go fix yourself with a shovel, s*cker!
    Stories are to be told, digested and next-ed. if you don't like it, live in one, e.g. The Cell, another New Line Cinema release, hehe

    the real adults are those in the graves

  3. Re:Base the game on the profession on Correlations Between Video Games And Academic Achievement? · · Score: 1

    there are ,indeed, a few economic simulators, quite apt for introducing the big corporate world to the freshman and the high school guys:
    WallStreet Trader 2000 and Startup! (the latter i'm uncertain for).
    the site was:
    http://www.montecristo-multi.com/
    and it is a bit more on the analytical software edge, so think twice.

  4. Re:Negative correlation... but necessary on Correlations Between Video Games And Academic Achievement? · · Score: 1

    games, by definition are a chopped-down version of real-life situation and decision-making processes, so in a way, we DO need the game concept, one way or another
    wel, that doesn't mean spending 5-6hrs on Q3 dismembering the dean

  5. team fortress is still inmature on Correlations Between Video Games And Academic Achievement? · · Score: 1

    i'm sure a ot of guy's are familiar w/ the idea of the cunter-strike gameplay and that it does deserve some attention, but still it can't level out with "real" war games and the panache of , let's say, paintball.
    still, the team-idea-of-play/strategy is worth the discussing.
    {a sigh} abd i ain't that good on stracraft, i hate killing marines! '-)

  6. a review, personal on Underground Surfaces · · Score: 1

    GOsh, i think i'm not just one of the few guys that got through "underground" in less than 24 hours, but still, i have to spot this:
    -the book is good AND a page-turner in the best possible educated sense, if anybody has still any contemplations about reading it, *anyhow*, a long night's awaiting ya, boys!
    -i was a bit unlucky to be pinned down my PC for the last days due to sore throat shitty flu stuff and thus got the chance to dig right into the book- from 11pm to 5am and finished it in just under 22hrs from downloading. and on /. there was still almost no reasonable comments, sept for some links after the paperback edition got out.
    -it would be interesting to get some first-hand experience bounce back in the wild, till then, this story is as genuine as it can go, System X included.
    -on the issue of fiction-ing for the narrative purpose, the authors still did a pretty cool job, so some details' omission or making up thereof is permitted.
    -i cannot afford to buy the paperback, though i would have, had i had the opportunity and the money (i'm still not in the carding business ;>) especially from a bulgarian perspective. so etext rules!
    -the authors conclude with the image of the NEW hackers, perhaps a lot of thinking should already be under way by them for the sequel?
    -the whole book can't stand next to impartial on its subjects, but this is also why it is so genuine AND true to me. (i won't ask K.Day for comments)
    -mid the first motto sentence (by WILDE) and the last- how thin the line between management and totalitarian control-mania can be? (a la GEORGE * BUSH deja vu, aNybody?)

  7. Re:For that matter- make some more fun right out o on Colleges Urged To Ban Telnet And FTP · · Score: 1

    if they're after the overclocked sysadmins, why not just let them *free-hunting* for a while, killing a port here, conning the neighbouring campus?
    killing two birds w/ a stone:
    everybody gets exerience (which is good) and ALMOST everybody gets hurt (which is ,duh, better?-) and so they all find out what it is to get burned big time.
    it's all too simple- you wanna get sth done, DIY or make them understand the consequences. campuses ARE test-fields, but cutting off their wings (not to mention MUDs) is worse.
    Now, make your WISE move...

  8. Re:I have to admit--I've never tried using my fone on Cell Phone Usage on Airplanes == Bad Idea · · Score: 1

    simply because there aint much use of it, w/o the plug.
    yeah, don't forget the plug.
    otherwise, where is going to be the "whole staying connected" business, when you just cant stop bullying around with a gadget, no more than a radio on such crouded wave-space-hogs like the big internationals?
