    brilliant. Use your Jeffries Tubes to lay your Stevens Tubes.

  3. Digg changes their mind! on Digg.com Attempts To Suppress HD-DVD Revolt · · Score: 1
    Digg just reversed their position according to Kevin Rose:

    http://blog.digg.com/?p=74

    But now, after seeing hundreds of stories and reading thousands of comments, you've made it clear. You'd rather see Digg go down fighting than bow down to a bigger company. We hear you, and effective immediately we won't delete stories or comments containing the code and will deal with whatever the consequences might be.

    If we lose, then what the hell, at least we died trying.

    Digg on,

    Kevin
  4. Re:All "in the family." on Confessions of a Recovering NetBSD Zealot · · Score: 1

    perhaps it should be called the 'obnoxius' GNU advertising clause?

    we're getting what we deserve. (I'm a white male.)
    If you yourself have enslaved anyone or opressed anyone I would agree. Blaming someone for sins of their ancestors is ridiculous. And if we blame for the effects of sins then, logically, we should honor for effects of good works (knowledge, technology, etc).
  6. Re:Wish it was Sid's on Pirates of The Carribean MMOG in 2007 · · Score: 1

    I have been playing the new Pirates! on xbox recently, and thought an MMOG would be a great fit, where the important jobs (governor, friar, captain of the gaurd, so forth) could be held in a meaningful way by players, leading to a competetive social structure without repetetive NPCs.

    Also, being a Carribean pirate is just downright fun.

  7. Re:Fable 2? on Tough Times for Lionhead Studios · · Score: 1

    I am 1/4 the way through. Very fun game. Go for it!

  8. Re:Commodore PET on What Was Your First Computer? · · Score: 1

    Elementary school brought in 20 commodore PETs for a couple of weeks. All I remember about it was playing Oregon Trail.

    Good Times.

  9. Re:verizon on Samsung Shows Off 3.6Mbps Cellular · · Score: 1

    I use a Verizon EVDO card at work, $80/month unlimited. Much faster than tmobile EDGE. Maintain .7-1mbit in well-covered areas.

  11. Re:and who better than the US... on US Keeps Control of the Internet · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You can discuss Nazi history, yes. But you are not allowed to have the wrong opinion, ie. fly the swastika, "deny the holocaust" etc. Mind-crimes are far more dangerous than torrents being shutdown due to flagrant copyright infringement.

  12. Re:Don't get too excited until you know the price on Inmarsat Brings 3G Broadband to North America · · Score: 2, Interesting

    A 56k connection (or voice call) on Iridium is about $1 minute. It works almost anywhere in the world and at 35,000 feet. My company uses the motorola 9505 on aircraft and we use SMS and voice mostly because data is just so slow... but it is cheap, can be cheaper than international cellphone roaming charges!

  13. Re:How appropriate for some people... on Episode III Deleted Scenes Leaked Online · · Score: 3, Funny

    Very appropriate tab title, unlike "Anandtech: your source for hardware anal..."

  15. Re:I don't see the point... on High-Definition PC Video Conferencing? · · Score: 1
    Unless you're doing a video conference with some hot starlet, I do not see the point of this.
    That is why you fail.
  16. Re:Infocom Sorcerer on For Love of The Game · · Score: 1

    Enchanter was also excellent. I got a total rush after I finally "kulcad stairs".

  17. physics chips, says Garriott on Developer Retrospective on the MMORPGs of 2004 · · Score: 0

    Corpnews: What emerging trend do you see as most affecting future MMOG designs?

    Richard: Physics. MMOs try and create realistic worlds to explore and interact with. Thus, physics is a natural next step in crafting a real place. Plus, physics chips are now on the horizon, so we will be able to compute complex scenes quickly!

    ...featuring a passed out princess with big, round tits.

  19. Re:useless matrix on Ten-disc 'Matrix' DVD Box Set Planned · · Score: 1
