  1. You know what that means... on LOTR Campout Begins · · Score: 2, Funny

    Sooner or later those notebook and cellphone batteries are going to wear out, and then we'll have some inconsoleable geeks out in the miserable cold.

  2. Roaming... on Voicestream Quietly Releases GPRS In The U.S. · · Score: 1

    Great, its global roaming will allow you to use it anywhere including Kazakhstan, but oh no, not Canada. It's just an invisible line dividing a land mass. We're practically american anyway!

  3. Re:Lets Kill em all on Nimda To Strike Again · · Score: 1

    So you reformat their C drive, forcing them to re-install a nice fresh un-patched version of Win2K server. Hooray.

  4. Above.net on Exodus Files For Chapter 11 Protection · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I know that two days ago all my packets headed to ICQ's (aol's) servers were hopping to Above.Net, and then just dieing.
    I had never seen that name before until then, and seeing that they may be going broke very soon is kinda interesting.

  5. Re:Learning Linux has gotten a bit easier on What's A Good Starter Linux distro? · · Score: 1

    Question: Of the two Mandrake ISOs offered, is the second disc a mandatory download-and-burn? Of Redhat 7.0, Disc 2 was never asked for. Still don't know what's on it.

    Thanks

    You should know of that which you speak.

    Do you honestly believe that had Franz Ferdinand not been shot, WWI would not have happened? I'm not sure they would have been able to resolve all that angst over a pot of tea and biscuits.

    And the assasination of Hitler would have simply ended any possibility of WWII?

    Wow, "gamorck", they should have had you as a chief strategist back then, you could have saved the world...

  9. Three words to filter out on What Makes You "High Risk" For SPAM? · · Score: 1

    These three words do the trick for me to filter out spam:

    Viagra, Unsubscribe, and Remove.

    If it hits any of those words, or as substrings, it moves the message to a seperate folder.

    Gets 18/20 guaranteed.

    I envy you.

    I'm in a semi, which means (just in case they don't exist outside of Canada) that it's a very large house split in half, each half mirror opposites. Therefore, I can not have loud music blasting all day, or have my speakers up while playing CS, etc, etc because this tends to incite violence from the neighbors next door.

    I feel deprived. Sigh.

  20. Re:Agreed on Myst III: Exile Review · · Score: 1

    A review, in my eyes, goes farther than how something installs, or doesn't install. I would have liked an effort to find another Win32 box to install it on, and then have it reviewed. I don't care if he couldn't install it, it's called "Windows", and we windows users have had to struggle for years to get things to work. With practically any game I buy, I have to adjust to get it working. So too should have Michael.

    Michael, we don't want to hear about your installation problems. I'm sorry if it wouldn't install for you, I really am. But when will you stop wasting our time and realise that we don't care. If you're going to review something, find a way. I want a real review, not some bloke making a point.
