Sorry if this is slightly off-topic, but I'm the submitter of this article, though I did so anonymously. Is it standard Slashdot practice to change the submitter's (anonymous) name? If you'll notice, the article start "lazed-dazed asks:..." instead of "Anonymous Coward asks:..."
With the GameCube now priced the same as the GBA, one might as well just skip the "turn your GBA into a console" bit and go straight to owning a console! =)
On October 28th, from 8pm to 10pm EST, the PBS show "Nova" will be running a special regarding string theory (among other things). More details are here: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/.
What possible rationale do they have for not fixing it in 3 months?
Hmmm. Maybe they were busy working on Half-Life 2?;)
Seriously, though: considering Half-Life's age, I find it amazing it got patched at all! Half was released at the end of 1998, making it almost 5 years old. I can't think of many other games (or even applications, for that matter) that still get support after such a length of time.

Man, and here I was all proud of making my folks a clay ashtray.
WHAT?!?!??!?!?!
Man! I knew I should have seen the second movie! ;)
Nope.
Would sales tax on these things be called a "Blue Gene Levy"? Hahahaha. Horrible, I know. ;)

Just curious.
Might I suggest 120 laser pointers?

Thanks for ruining it for me! I'd only made it to the 535th solution! =p
Forget flying cars and colonies on the Moon! I'm still waiting for Duke Nukem Forever!
Damned kids these days! Doesn't any one say "thither" anymore? ;)
If anyone's interested, James Gleick recently released a wonderful biography of Sir Isaac. It's a very entertaining, very fast read.
Disclaimer: I've never read any other Newton biography, so I can't validate the accuracy. ;)
...by putting Kevin Costner in 'em! =)
Don't they know they're supposed to use a Pringle's can?!?!?

Dude, at $300/hour, I'd expect you'd want to take your jolly time! =)
Here in Canada it's spelled cheque. ;)
I wonder if this means Slashdot's going to change their look to match the snazzy OSX-style "Volatile Hyperlinkage" design. Might be a nice change.
Oh, wait. For a minute there I was expecting this Richard Hatch. =)

... here's a litt bit about making those crazy lightshows from the sixties.

This also suggests that 3D Realms intends to produce a game at some point, too! =)

Bible, schmible! I much prefer Guttenberg's movie.
