Why don't they do something worthwhile, like a standard Mario-style platformer (something Nintendo pretty much has yet to accomplish on GC)?
Maybe because it's been done a million times before?
I don't get why Nintendo is the butt of every criticism in the game industry. They're either:
condemned for making the same "franchise" games over and over.
condemned for deviating from the norm.
Does anybody remember the Sega game Samba de Amigo, you know, the game with maraca controllers? That game was critically acclaimed, yet it never had commercial success in America. Game companies want to create the summer blockbuster, not the art film. Thankfully, Nintendo, Sega, and Namco are still willing to take risks.
Morpheus: SCO is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your operating system. Or when you boot your AIX box. You can feel it when you surf the web. When you compile your kernel. When you mount your filesystems. It is the lawsuit that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Fully standards compliant mpeg4. It's not going to look nearly as good as XviD or DivX5, but it will be "durable."
Since when has being a geek been political? Granted, I agree with the majority on Slashdot on certain issues, but not with others. I thought geekdom was about a love for technology.
If being a geek means I'm some kind of political activist hippie, count me out.
I believe it just takes a quick screen shot to create the transparency effect. It does cause a little lag to render the transparency, but I do like the effect. It's not enough of a lag to be annoying on my 850MHz PC.

If these functions were implemented in Perl, they would be guaranteed to look different than the System V!

I already have that program for free... it's called grep

cd
grep -n "SCO" *
Obviously this story was not posted from Gentoo 1.4, unless it was compiled on a 16-way machine or something.
Strange... the eight bar logo lines up with the aqua-style bars perfectly.

I just tried it in Xine and Mplayer. Xine plays it perfectly with sound and video. Mplayer does just video. YMMV
You're talking about a software tv tuner? What software supports file input? I guess you could make some fake V4L device.
Very interesting thought. I'd really like to know this too!
These jokes are old even in Soviet Russia.
That would be kinda cool. Like a Blue and Red jelly bean or something!
Yeah, I remember Snood... back when it was called BUST A MOVE
This Website has some good info on how to build a Myth box. I believe you can also buy one from them if you're lazy :)
They say on their website that they maintain an x86 port just to ensure that their code is relatively portable - not really for our benefit.

Yep.

I don't know how this is a "troll." So much for the power of the purse, we're helping Microsoft!
At least running 26 miles ensures that you're in good physical condition.

Right now! I got the RIAA's, Microsoft's and O.J.'s lawyers. Should be interesting.
You mean they're in the same room? Quick, someone hack into a DoD computer and launch the nukes!
