    C Pound

  2. Design on Thingiverse on Mechanical CPU Clock · · Score: 2

    The design is hosted on thingiverse: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:21494

  3. Leaked early on Google Maps Introduces 8-Bit Quest Maps · · Score: 1

    Hmm, I guess this was leaked. I saw it yesterday, following a link from Reddit...

  4. Aliens on NYC Bans Mention of Dinosaurs, Dancing, Birthdays On Student Tests · · Score: 1

    Presumably the banning of aliens is so as not to offend scientologists?

  5. Re:Car Wars? on Steve Jackson Games Shows Off Their Latest Tabletop Games at SXSW (Video) · · Score: 1

    I think he was looking for "full, scale downtown Toledo...." or more carefully worded, "full copy of downtown Toledo, at scale"

    1,2,3,4, I declare a cold war!

  11. Re:You'd think Linux users above all would be awar on Windows 8 To Natively Support ISO and VHD Mounting · · Score: 1

    Except that it does. That tool is more for if you want to install from USB, you can use an ISO or an actual disc, and make the USB mountable and whatnot. OR, if you were wanting to burn your Windows7.iso to a DVD while you are running WinXP, you don't need to go and download some ISO burning software.

  14. Re:Well, game development is prone to crunch time on The Dark Side of Making L.A. Noire · · Score: 3, Funny

    Don't be silly. Valve can't count to 3! The next one will be Half-Life 2, Episode 2, Part 2.

  15. Re:Mining is dangerous. on Man Mines Midtown New York Sidewalks · · Score: 2

    But wouldn't some chiropractic dealings help prevent this destruction? Or would that just be caused by some subluxations?

  16. Cyberwelfare on Chinese Military Admits Existence of Cyberwarfare Unit · · Score: 1

    30 strong? Forget cyberwarfare, this is more like cyberwelfare!

  17. Re:where is the code? on Zeus Crimeware Kit Source Code Leaked · · Score: 1

    ... Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more!

  18. Re:Over my head on Is Process Killing the Software Industry? · · Score: 1

    Not exactly. During a sprint (A set period of time, but constant, ie 2 weeks always), you work on something from start to finish (lets make this button show a pie graph with blah blah balh), dev to test to documentation and whatever else. Pre-sprint grooming is essentially refining tasks that are yet to be done to ensure they can be done in a sprint, or ensuring you know how much of a sprint the task will take up. You might for example break down the previous "press a button, get a pie graph" into "press a button and get a pie graph with constant values" and "make the pie graph actually retrieve our current values" (Not the greatest example, but whatever.)
    Of course, this all depends who you talk to...

  19. Re:Chrome is the new Benchmark. on RockMelt: Google Chrome, Only Better · · Score: 1

  23. Re:Expert Sex Change on Google Tweaks Algorithm; EHow Traffic Plummets · · Score: 1

    Except that it is behind a paywall?

  24. Expert Sex Change on Google Tweaks Algorithm; EHow Traffic Plummets · · Score: 2, Funny

    They definitely need to tweak it further to get rid of or decrease the number of results from expert sex change.

  25. Re:Alternatives to the mass-murdering hero on FPS Gaming and the 'Just-World Hypothesis' · · Score: 1

    I guess you have "nice" friends. I played through evil the first time in 3, and typically play evil in most RPGs. I actively had to try to be good in my second run though, in order to see more content, since often there isn't as much on the evil side of these games...
