  1. Re:Perjury is a Crime on Paramount Sues Ohio Man For $100,000 · · Score: 0

    If they can't find the files in question on his machine AND he can produce reasonable doubt , they 'should' have a tough time prosecuting him.

    Reasonable doubt in a civil suit? Is no such thing.

  2. Prelude to online selling? on Google Base Launches · · Score: 0

    Interesting. Upload descriptions of all the junk you want to sell next!
    ebay needs a worthy competitor.

    Descent 3 was a disappointment after Descent 2.

    "it's" is not a contraction anymore than "Bill's" as in "Bill's wallet".

    Nope. DVDShrink is not developed anymore. The author got a lucrative offer from Ahead (makers of Nero).

    I thought the type of employment he is referring to is "employment at will". "Right to work" sounds like the complete opposite.

  9. Quake 3 mod on Humor in Games? · · Score: 0

    My favorite game back in the Quakeworld days was a mod for Quake called Painkeep. The tradition is still alive with Painkeep Arena for Q3. One of the health powerups is a can of pork-n-beans which gives you +100 health when you eat them but the side effect is that you tend to fart alot. Your enemies can hear you coming and you "hop" when you fart which sometimes sends you headfirst into the lava or void. If you are quadded and farting you become a deadly methane weapon to those around you and yourself. Nothing better then killing someone close by with a fart. Period. It doesn't happen often but its something to relish. Makes for some very pretty fart bubbles underwater too.

    PKA also has various goodies like beatraps, which leave you stumbling around with a huge trail of blood behind you. The gravity well makes the whole level rumble with an earthquake rattling people out of their cubbyhole who had scrambled to hide when they heard the well being deployed. With the dragon tongue, PKA's own unique grappling hook, you can place the beartrap or gravity well on the end of it and deploy with the hook to wherever you feel it will do the most carnage.

    Someone coming at you like a maniac with a lightning gun? No problem. Keep an autosentry stashed in your inventory and bring it up as the chosen weapon... it reflects the lightning back at the perpetrator and zaps him until he knows better.

    The guy wises up and decides to pelt you with a few rockets? His mistake. Pull out your airfist and blow the rockets right back in his face. One sure way to make your friends hate you is to deploy a gravity well into an open area then stand out of harm's way and blow unsuspecting victims toward the well.

    Hell, I don't even need to play the upgrade game anymore with my PC. I should be fine for years to come With Painkeep Arena. Check it out here: http://sh.stonks.com/ and the official site here: http://www.planetquake.com/teamevolve/

  13. Now it all makes sense... on Cincinnati Gets Broadband Over Power Lines · · Score: 1, Informative

    I live in Cincy and have the phone company's dsl service (very good service I might add). Last couple weeks they've been upgrading everyone to 3mb/1mb and dropped the price a bit. Nice to see some competition stirring up the pot now. Good news on an otherwise sad day here in Cincinnati. Marge Schott passed away. :(

    He also used dinput for mouse controls in all Quakes. Easily turned off but he still used a part of DirectX, just not the renderer. I bet he uses DirectX for sound in DooM3.
