You've been given a 'funny' mod too. It's not funny. This site is going down the tubes quickly. More and more we're seeing 'fluff' advertising 'stories' which are nothing more than shameless ad revenue grabs, generic 'soon to be released function x in program y', etc.
Slashdot jumped the shark long ago (*I* think when they were bought by VA, however, the past year has been particularly bad). If digg.com can implement a decent commenting system, this site is finished (FWIW - I hate dropping names like that).
I hope you're paying attention Taco - this site is in need of a serious overhaul. The system you have now for content is hopelessly broken. Why not put that power in your users hands - you might be surprised at the result.
Can Konqueror use user-specified stylesheets, like those in the Firefox adblock extention?
Yes, you can set Konqueror to use any kind of valid css stylesheet to filter webcontent or improve accessibility. From the Konqueror main window simply click Settings->Configure Konqueror... and select Stylesheets. Set the radio button to Use user-defined stylesheet and browse to where the stylesheet you want to use is located. Alternatively, you can select Use accessibility stylesheet defined in "Customize" tab and then set your own options.
Be careful which webcam you buy. The Logitech Quickcam Messenger is a Windows only POS. The chipset is incompatible, IIRC. I have the Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000, and it runs like a champ in Gnomemeeting. If you want a really good cam, get the iSight - it works under linux. From what I recall, most of the head tracking stuff is Windows only. Can't wait to try this out tonight - we'll see how it works from Linux->Windows and Linux->Mac.
Hah. Welcome to the club. You're not the only one that this has happened to. I actually got banned (exactly the same circumstances as you describe) for a comment that was untimately scored +5.
I emailed again and again, and was told 'too bad, that's the penalty for excessive moderation'. I have the email, if you wish to see it.
How does this get modded 'Troll'? Did Civ III ship with an installer? Ever tried playing Civ III with Cedega? It's painfully slow. I'm asking if they will natively support my platform of choice. Like Quake, Doom, UT200x, ET, NWN, Savage, etc...

I read that as 'big titties'. I gotta lay off the porn.
You can find that almost anywhere. Like here - browse at -1, for example.
While we're at it, let's pimp the website too. http://www.makezine.com/
Badges orange you!

Windows only? C'mon.
Pffft. Amateur.
The *only* reason they're closing Ontario plants is so they don't completely piss off the American Auto Worker's Union.
My bad. It's been awhile since I looked into it.

At one point, it didn't work. At all. I know, cause I bought one (cheap 20 bucks).

Be careful which webcam you buy. The Logitech Quickcam Messenger is a Windows only POS. The chipset is incompatible, IIRC. I have the Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000, and it runs like a champ in Gnomemeeting. If you want a really good cam, get the iSight - it works under linux.

This is an excellent suggestion. Editors -- please include this question to the Mythbusters.
Slackware doesn't even ship with Gnome.
Praise is good, but your wallet speaks louder. Don't forget to let them know *why* you purchased the game.
I emailed again and again, and was told 'too bad, that's the penalty for excessive moderation'. I have the email, if you wish to see it.
So your laptop users are *always* on the network then? That's impressive.
How does this help me when I have no network connectivity?
Like you ever stopped. And it's not 'stealing'. It's 'copyright infringement'.
I'm just inviting a 'Troll' mod here...
Too lazy to make a clicky.
Troll indeed. Why should I pay $200 for an OS to play a 60 dollar game? Won't happen.
How does this get modded 'Troll'? Did Civ III ship with an installer? Ever tried playing Civ III with Cedega? It's painfully slow. I'm asking if they will natively support my platform of choice. Like Quake, Doom, UT200x, ET, NWN, Savage, etc...
