I would have to second that. I would have been about 10 when the manhole came out. That was one incredible game. Like myst, I guess, without all the annoying puzzles.
In Myst, things would be completely unrelated to anything. Pressing buttons in the right order had nothing to do with anything.
What was the deal with the red and blue pages anyways? You get all of them, and it's game over. You die. WTF?
Anybody get a mirror site up before techies.com went kaput?

Thanks for replying.
What I meant was that the whole thing is one big friggin' table. If you do go in the text-only site, though, speech based and braille based browsers will do fine.
If a blind slashdot user clicked on the above link, though, he'd be screwed. If he could read Slashdot at all.

Just interesting to note that this page is not readable by machines that help the blind surf the web. They have not added any extra code to help their audience receive this information.
This is a gross mistake on the part of blindness.org. How do they intend to help if their audience can't read their page?
Why don't we have a category also for Napster, one for Gnutella, one for Toshiba, one for Swiss cheese, and while we'e at it, one for slashdot's redundant stories!
There are too many categories already. Well, maybe the last one mentioned would be ok.

I bet my friend $20 this wouldn't get modded up.
A portion of the proceeds (after I win) will be
donated to Rich Lowtax Kyanka.
...with the movie? If the director is an emmy winner, what is he doing messing around with the quake2 engine? I was astonished that the titles were done in Quake2 too, but I just couldn't bare to watch it. Th music is bad, the plot is worse. Just FF'ing through it, it looks like "this happened, then this happened, then this happened."
Just IMHO, though. If you disagree, please don't moderate this down.
This isn't the first time recently. The recent Ask Slashdot article about high-school computer courses was posted about 6 months ago. Slashdot seems to be recycling stories.
Please Slashdot, if you're short on news, just leave it blank. Sometimes no news is good news.
What the hell does "nailing jello to the wall" have to do with anything? How do you even DO that? Why would you attempt that? Clinton needs to fire his writers.

Mirror it fast! It's gonna go down hard when /. effect kicks in.

Um.... I don't have any experience w/ Airplane adapters, but it's perfectly OK to use laptops on airplanes. Not the same as cell phones.
