  1. On the CD on Where Are The Videogame Soundtracks? · · Score: 1

    Half-Life and OpFor have the soundtracks as ordinary audio tracks on the CD. If you've got a non-spazzed CD player, it should pick them up. Same, I recall, with 7th Guest, which was the game I got a CD-ROM drive for...

  2. Re:Well, that's kind of the point? on Sun Posts Increasing Loss · · Score: 1

    Fastest UltraIII is around about 1.1GHz IIRC. Fastest P4 is 3.somethingGHz, and it's also cheaper.

  3. Re:Not surprising on Sun Posts Increasing Loss · · Score: 1

    An UltraSparcIII is about double the power per MHz of a P4. It's also ten times the price.

  4. Re:Easy on Server Monitoring Solutions? · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, gkrellmd doesn't yet handle plugins entirely correctly...

  5. Utter nonsense on New Living Fossil Discovered in India · · Score: 1

    Clearly, God put it there to test our faith.

  6. Easy on Server Monitoring Solutions? · · Score: 1

    Big monitor, gkrellm over remote X and someone to sit there and watch :)

  7. Re:Congratulations on China Sends First Taikonaut To Space · · Score: 1

    Your trolling really has gone downhill.

  8. Aspect ratio on Better Media Container Formats? · · Score: 1

    Please, just give me a file format that doesn't require me to do -aspect x:y whenever I launch mplayer... I'm trying to stick my dvd collection onto HDD (easier for moving between home and university) and it's driving me insane...

  9. sparcstation5 on What's the Oldest Hardware You are Still Using? · · Score: 1

    My oldest box is an ss5. Runs gentoo quite happily. I did a stage1, xfree and kde from source (only took about three months to compile in total). I use fluxbox on it for real work though...

  10. Re:Related question on How Do You Store Your Media? · · Score: 1

    I've had a fair amount of success with an electric fence...

  11. Humans can do this too on Monkeys Play Videogames With Their Mind · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Kevin Warwick has been doing this for ages.

  12. Re:Ahem... on Do Not Call Site Has AT&T Stats Tracker? · · Score: 1

    From most countries it costs a fair bit to call the US... So probably not worth the money.

  13. Re:Smart family on Vanu Replacing Cell Tower Equipment With PCs · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Unfortunately, Bose speakers mostly suck, but they have a really good PR department. The phrase "reality distortion field" comes to mind.

    If you're after decent speakers at a similar price, buy KEFs.

  14. Sorry on Savage Demo Lets You FPS/RTS On Linux & Windows · · Score: 0, Troll

    There's no ebuild, and I'm too lazy to compile stuff manually.

  15. Our own internal app on How Do You Manage Requests in Your Organization? · · Score: 2, Informative

    We have our own internal app which people can access via the Web or through Notes. Or, if they prefer, they can call the helldesk who will sumbit the problem for them. All submissions are routed via the helldesk anyway, who then pass them on (usually) to the (usually) correct group.

    Of course, since there's a web interface, we also have several automated scripts that submit problems for us whenever something breaks, reminders of daily / weekly / monthly checks and so on...

  16. Re:The next chip called Nehalem on New Pentium 5 Details - 5-7ghz? · · Score: -1, Troll

    You weren't funny.

  17. Suddenly on Kazaa Sues Record Labels · · Score: 5, Funny

    I wish I was a lawyer, not an engineer...

  18. Re:Hmmm.... on Reliance On MS A Danger To National Security · · Score: 1

    Uhm, you're kinda new around here, aren't you?

  19. Re:Mirror on Home-brewing a 1.2TB IDE to Firewire Monster · · Score: 1

    Bah... Is that all you can do? Come on, people, try reloading a few times...

    (Why do I get the impression that my webhost will suddenly introduce bandwidth charges?)

  20. Mirror on Home-brewing a 1.2TB IDE to Firewire Monster · · Score: 5, Informative

    'Fraid it's only a mozilla grab... clicky. Images are still uploading, but I got them all...

  21. See also... on Rodents of Unusual Size · · Score: 5, Informative

    From the bbc... No registration required

  22. Hopefully not another sellout on Worms 3D - Upgraded, Demonstrated, Previewed · · Score: 1

    I really liked worms 1 and 2, but armageddon was just a complete sellout, and the whole 'party' thing was a farce. Makes me kinda wary of this...

  23. Re:Stay away from Compaq/HP on SAN, NAS, Cost and Benefits? · · Score: 1

    Stay away from EMC too. EMC SAN kit is just rebranded McData with the firmware crippled so that it can't interoperate with non-EMC kit.

  24. Re:Dupe. on Video Screen in Thin Air · · Score: 1

    Indeed. I mailed the 'Editor on Duty' a while back, seems they ignore the DP email address. Why do I pay them good money again?

  25. Re:Speaking of versions on Nmap Gets Version Detection · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I submitted a story, and it got rejected. Guess /. hasn't patched up yet, so they don't want us to know about it.

    Still, that makes it two remote root holes in the default install now I believe...
