  1. Do you mean WoW client or server? on Sun to Give Niagara Servers to Reviewers · · Score: 1

    I bet it would run a WoW shard pretty well. How many instances of Blackrock Spire could one of those puppies handle?

  2. Re:What about the bookstores? on Amazon Japan Offers Barcode Purchases via Camera Phone · · Score: 1

    My brother got thrown out of a B.Dalton about twenty years ago for writing down the ISBN's of the books he wanted.

  3. Re:I have a friend... on Best Buy: 20% Of Customers Are Wrong · · Score: 1

    What company is it...??

  5. Re: Baseball bat on Flash Mob Gang Warfare · · Score: 1

    What if the kid told his parents he was going to a baseball game?

  6. Re:this is some powerful stuff going on on Windows 2000 & Windows NT 4 Source Code Leaks · · Score: 2

    Of course she would. It's on mirrors all over the place.

  7. Re:Fiberglass Insulation on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 1

    When I was 12, my father volunteered me, being the oldest child to insulate our attic. Not with regular fiberglass batts or rolls - 2ft x 4ft used ceiling tiles, with the nastiest short-fiber fiberglass, and half of them smelled like rat shit/piss. After I cut them to fit I had to staple two or three layers of them to the underside of the roof. Gloves and a jacket helped to keep the stuff off me but not all of it.
    To this day, I still hate fiberglass.

  8. Re: Downtown Philly on Gentoo rsync Server Compromised [updated] · · Score: 1

    What part of _downtown_ Philly has abandoned houses in it? These days, you gotta get at least a couple of miles from Center City to find an abandoned house.

  9. Moderate this Funny! on Who Needs Radio? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Can you say Clear Channel + Infinity = 90%

  11. How to deal with timeshare telemarketers. on 10th Circuit Says FTC Can Enforce Do Not Call · · Score: 0

    1. Ask if you can bring a few friends to their session.
    2. Get your RPG group together
    2a. Make sure your friends are loud and obnoxious, maybe even drunk.
    3. Play your favorite game in the middle of their session. Nothing disrupts a sales pitch worse than an argument over whether your 8th level bard can use that Harp of Undead Control he acquired in someone else's Monty Haul dungeon.

  12. Software is a Service on Free Software as a Public Good · · Score: 0

    Despite what Bill Gates wants you to think, software is a service, not a product.

  13. Re:Pigfarm? on Bluetooth Headset Roundup · · Score: 0

    Excuse me, I am a HUMAN. HUMANS have chicken farms. ORCS have pig farms. Thank you very much.

  14. Does it run on Unix? Then SCO 0wnx0rz it! on Who Owns Source Code When a Company Folds? · · Score: 0

    According to Darl McBride, CEO of the SCO Group, it is a "derivative work" of the Unixwarp OS/2 source code, and therefore the intellectual property of the SCO Group, the collection of lawyers who feast on the corpses of software companies.

  15. Secret areas on Linux And Innovative Simulations · · Score: 0

    They are banging on the walls - they're looking for the boss monster (Saddam). The caches of armor, med kits, and rail guns are the Weapons of Mass Destruction.

    Yes, but all Saddam's base are belong to USA!

  19. Re:Imitations of Warcraft on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    More like Ford sending a cease and desist letter to the junkyard for building custom cars using some Ford parts.

  20. Re:A game like Warcraft on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    No! Freecraft is a game engine with a set of scripts that makes it a game like Warcraft. The game play is close but not identical.

  21. Re:Game engine similarity on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    The scripting system is completely different.
    The default set of scripts was getting *close* to the gameplay of WC2 but it wasn't there yet.
    You're close with your comment about the new engine, though.

  22. Re:Freecraft graphics on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    They let you import the Warcraft graphics, or use the Freecraft graphics which look nothing like Warcraft's graphics

  23. Re:What is a Tram? on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    In the US, they are generally called streetcars or trolleys

  24. Re:If you dont plan to buy any other Blizzard game on FreeCraft Cease and Desisted by Blizzard · · Score: 0

    They didn't copy Blizzard's work. They did do their own work.
