  1. Re:Wouldn't it be quicker... on An Open Source Direct3D 8.0 Wrapper for Open GL · · Score: 0

    I lived in Redmond for several years. It is very bike friendly. They have bike riding zones on most streets.

  2. Re:LONG AND WIDE... UP CMDRTACOS ASS on Borland C++ For Linux · · Score: -1, Troll

    How could this possibly get a 1? Gawd I love some of the mods!

  3. Re:.mov format on Vendetta: A Christmas Story Part 2 · · Score: 0

    It sucks anyways. You are not missing much.

  4. Re:They make a good point on Why Free Software is a Hard Sell · · Score: 0

    Linux rocks for servers. Hands down. Nothing like watching a *nix server stand up to the toughest tasks and triumphantly not having to reboot. On the other hand X is horrible for desktop usage. OLE sucks, simple setup features are not easily accessible, documentation on a majority of programs released are horid, and a lot of functionality all suck in X. Every year I reinstall Linux+X on a box and watch it improve more and more. It is still not as practical as a Windows box.

    Someday it will be.
    It has already begun.

    Theres my two cents. Saying it as it is. Trollify me. I love you.

  5. Re:/. descends to a new low... on Linux Powered Christmas Tree · · Score: 0

    LOL. Soooo True!

  6. Smile Buddy on Linux Powered Christmas Tree · · Score: 0

    He has the look that he just pinched a loaf.

  7. Re:Oh REALLLY? on Excite@Home & Comcast/AT&T Reach Agreement · · Score: 0

    Possibly your router needs to rebind NAT translation to the new IP therefore you need to re-address your privates so new translation statements to your new Internet address occurs.

    Just a thought. I found myself doing the same with my Linksys. Seems logical.

  8. Security Holes on McAfee Will Ignore FBI Spyware · · Score: 1, Interesting

    There will always be another program that will aid in blocking this. I do not get to upset over McAfee not preventing this. I am sure you can go to Freshmeat or C|Net downloads and find some freeware ap in time that blocks this behavior.

    No biggy getting upset over it. The only thing to get upset about is the extra few k of resources that another program will take. With how ram is now days... who cares?

  9. Soap Operas on Andromeda To Become Less Complex? · · Score: 0

    I am sick of the soap operas in space anyhow. Too much time is spent on internal battles. Deep Space 9 was a giant soap opera in space. I like more of the action myself. Simple minded? Maybe. I get enough drama in my life that I don't feel liking watching more on tv. More of the action approach is what made the first two Star Treks IMHO more successful then their successors.

    That's my two cents.
    I don't care if you don't agree. :)

  10. Thank Gawd! on Return to Castle Wolfenstein Ships · · Score: 0

    I welcome the final version with open arms. After countless hours of eye watering playing of the same map over and over again in the Wolftest I feverishly await the full version.
    Start of game. Engineer. Detonate the walls. Change over to a lieutenant and wipe out the snipers. Followed by playing the medic to wrack up even more points. Alla end up with the most points at the end of the map. That is so very old now that I am sure most of you that have played the WolfTests often are knodding your heads. :)

  11. Re:On CD keys, etc. on Return to Castle Wolfenstein Ships · · Score: 0

    There are dozens of virtual cd-drive progies out there for Winblows as well if that is what you are using.

  12. Great! on NASA Wants You To Fly The Highway In The Sky · · Score: 0

    I can't wait to change my dog's name to Astro and my future son's name to Elroy!

  13. Re:what makes the game cube so great? on GameCube Really And Truly For Sale · · Score: 0

    GameCube is $200.

  14. Metroid Prime - My only reason to purchase in futu on GameCube Really And Truly For Sale · · Score: 0

    Metroid Prime looks amazing. I have always been a fan of all three of the Metroid games. Metroid 4 - looks to have environments from the older generation games in a new 3D world. The story line looks interesting as well. This may be one reason enough for me to purchase the GameCube. Provided is a link of some short videos on it.

  15. Re:A Xbox is just a PC on Another Xbox Anatomy Lesson · · Score: 0

    Yes and your reply got a higher score then it. :) Figure that one out. ;)

  16. Re:A Xbox is just a PC on Another Xbox Anatomy Lesson · · Score: 0

    Of course it is. And it is quite ingenious of Microsoft to bring developers to a home entertainment platform that utilizes that modified DX so that they will bring more software titles to the PC and with that, sell more PCs, which means MS gets to sell more of Windows. :)

  17. That was a quick /.! on Another Xbox Anatomy Lesson · · Score: 0

    Read the subject.

  18. Re:Haley Joel Osment on Review: Harry Potter · · Score: 0

  19. Seen something simliar before on Wind Tunnel for Birds · · Score: 0

    I remember seeing something similiar to this before on Discovery or The Learning Channel. Anyone else see that?

  20. Re:"M2" was never released on Nintendo GameCube Clone Out In Japan · · Score: 0

    I remember countless times reading Gamepro and Gamespot magazines awing at the games.

  21. Very enjoyable to read on Wil Wheaton Responds to your Questions. · · Score: 0

    This is by far the most enjoyable, hillarious interview I have read. Very down to earth and funny. I enjoyed the FAQ on Wil's site as well. Definately put a smile on my face, and I think Wil is an interesting cool individual with a lot of drive, and appears to be very open minded. What a breath of fresh air. I like how he points something out at times and then downs his character indirectly making his brought out point stronger. I am sure he has had a bit of time to come up with answers to these selected questions. I applaud his creativity in his answers.

    Thanks Wil

  22. Multi-Angle on Large-Scale Video Archiving? · · Score: 0

    That would be one amazing multi-angle DVD porn!

  23. Re:Not a Microsoft Problem. on Crashing Xbox Kiosks · · Score: 0

    I also have seen the FF7 crash out of combat.

  24. Re:MS on Microsoft Blames the Messengers · · Score: 0

    Of course not. Read the EULA.

  25. Re:I disagree on mice on Ultimate Guide to Hosting a LAN Party · · Score: 0
