  1. Re:Rising Costs on Microsoft Turning Screws on Customers · · Score: 1

    Man, I know how you feel (AutoCAD/Microstation Drafter, GIS Planner, and Network Admin)! I've been looking for a free (as in beer) solution for our desktops for about 2 years. Anybody out there have any insight to this?

  3. Re:Almost convincing... on Are Kids Turning Your Kids Into Killers? · · Score: 1

    Actually school shooting aren't a new phenomena, it's just that instead of poor black / hispanic kids getting shot gangbanging / innocent bystanding in the inner-city, it's now rich white kids getting gunned down in upper middle class afluent neighborhoods. (yes, i've been to Columbine). If these kids we're running each other over in cars, the media would barely bat a fscking eye, but since they are using GUNS the media vampires are all over the stories.

    there is a 13 yr old in Florida right now that just got handed a life sentence...what he did was wrong, but a 13 yr old doesn't belong in an adult prison, no matter what he did.

  9. Just use CloneCD on Coming Soon: Burn-Proof CDs · · Score: 1

    It reads the "special" sectors on PlayStation CD's and SafeDisc'd CD's with no problem....and of course there is always just ripping the tracks thru analog...they can't really do anything about that untill they take our hardware away from us.

  10. Huh? on Is The Web Becoming Unsearchable? · · Score: 1

    Are there people that actually have problems finding stuff on the web? I can't think of one single time that I haven't found at least some relevant information on something I was looking for. Sure you'll get a few dead links, but my problem is usually that there is too much info to sort thru.

  12. Right to work state on Enforcing Non-Competes That You Didn't Sign? · · Score: 1

    If you live in a right to work state, most non-competes aren't worth the paper they are printed on (according to out HR officer, at least).

  14. Re:Not Encryption on AIMster Uses Pig Latin Encryption to Defeat RIAA · · Score: 1

    Can you imagine the poor RIAA schmuck that will have to go through every song manually to decode them mentally? This guy is going to have Pig Latin as a primary language before to long. Thats what the RIAA will have to do, the laws they bought are now binding them as well.

    I thought the game DOOM was based on a six hour long movie that had a simalar story line.

  18. Master of Magic on Turn-Based Games: What Happened? · · Score: 1

    Master of Magic! Voted the "More Addictive than Crack" game for the 90's. I wish they would make a sequel.

  19. Re:It's simple. on Turn-Based Games: What Happened? · · Score: 1

    Download the demo for Fallout Tactics: The Brotherhood of Steel. I've played through it and it is an awesome turn-base strategy game. Sorry I don't have the URL handy. And btw Baldur's Gate & ALL of the Infinity engine games do have very intellegent AI scripts that you can create & edit yourself using 3rd party editors. So you could let the AI go by itself if you wanted to.

    I think it is completely unfair to try to pin something this stupid & dangerous on a comparably benign hallucinogen such as LSD.

  22. Re:Aussie ISP's: Go on strike. on Draconian Censorship Push In South Australia · · Score: 1

    That would work great...have every ISP in Oz shut down for a week or only let people on their homepage. Two days before you send all of your customers an e-mail, saying why it would be in your the ISP's best interest to stay legal, and how you still have the pretty homepage to look at, so we're going to keep charging you. And oh yeah by the way, if you call your representative (or whatever the Austrailian equivalent is) and have these laws struck down, it will no longer be in our best interest to protect you from all of the porn out there.

    Just a (bad?) thought

  23. If it is a problem..... on Draconian Censorship Push In South Australia · · Score: 1

    ....move to north Austrailia ( or another state). I guessing that your government collects taxes. If enough people leave the state, the state looses money & sees the error of it's ways. Of course this is kinda an extreme way to prove a point, but if there is no other solution, I would move.

  24. Too bad they changed it..... on Hannibal's Return · · Score: 1

    .....I listened to the AudioBook, and I was looking forward to watching Mason's sister stuff a live morey eel into his mouth. Also, I wanted to see Clairese eat Paul Krindler's fried brains. You reallly ended up rooting for the good Doctor in the Audiobook version. Don't flame me, I already know I'm twisted.
