  1. Re:Good move on Kerry Concedes Election To Bush · · Score: 1

    I have an issue with the Bush folks at 3:00 AM saying Kerry should concede.

    Some areas of Ohio had so few voting machines and so many voters they were still votin at 4:30 AM.

    So explain how we can say the election would bea far one and people votes counted if we do not allow everyone who had been standing there since before the polls closed to vote and have the vote counted?

    The only word I can thinkof for anyone who wants that is unamerican.

  2. Re:Election rigging already? on Election Day Discussion · · Score: 1

    Republicans in Ohio have made up some flyers telling people that due to voter turn out, republicans are supposed to vote on Tuesday and democrats the day after. They went as far as to use board of elections name and logo and other ting to try to make it look legit. They then started plastering neighborhoods with this fraud.

    Those fuckes responsable should be killed . I'm tired of some ass who cant accept whatever the outcome may be trying to fuck the system up.

    Last week it was some group calling people and claiming to be from the board of elections, telling the people the voting precint had changed and giving them a different place to go. Knowing that if anyone did that they would be givin a provisional ballot that most likely would not be counted.

    Why do these people hate America so much they would rather destroy it then accept the results whatever they may end up being?

    Define source distro and binary distro?
    To install slackware I never have to compile anything, so to me it's a binary distro. Why do you call it a source distro?

  9. Re:Just a Precaution . . . on Absentee Ballots Go Missing in Florida · · Score: 1

    Some group (I do not know if it's Dems, Repubs, or some other party) is trying to abuse the fact that provisional ballots may nt be counted to disenfranchise voters by calling them and saying the polling place they are to report to has changed, and giving them improper information.
    I dont know the afliation of the people being called, but the callers identify themselves as in the employ of the Franklin County Board of Elections, and AFAIK it's illegal to do that.

    Frankly I hope they find the fuckers and kill them. No matter what party they belong to, shit like this should not be tolerated at all.

    Well considering it was a guy's (paying member) profile, I bet most slashdoters dont want to see him skyclad.

    Humm, for the rest maybe someone can start //. for people who like that kind of stuff.

    Depending on how you chose to misunderstand the meaning it could be:
    Link getting it from Samus
    Princess Zelda getting it from a Metroid
    Link getting it from a Metroid
    Princess Zelda getting it from Samus

    So we have hot hetero action (depending on what link you are thinking of). Hot alien tentacle action. Creepy hot alien tentacle action (well some gay hentai fans may be up for it) and last hot lesbian action.

    The Toyota Prius has the nav system you are talking about, also the radio has a TRAF button and can automatically pick up broadcast warnings. It's just that no one in america seems to bother to broadcast the warnings. Both the "classic" and current model Prius have this option.

  13. Re:Oh no, not the Rock... on Doom Movie in Production For Aug 2005 Release · · Score: 1

    Yah, my bad. You are correct I was describing a scene from Mummy returns.
    He did have a real IMO role in Scorpion King. I didnt really consider him "in" the Mummy Returns because of the CDI at the end and the small pert his character actually played. Then again IMO the Mummy Returns is about Imhotep and his love story rather then about the heros from the last film.

    I also dont think he (The Rock) is a horrible actor. I just file him with the other Pro wrestlers and other bulky action stars. Like Lundgrin And Piper.

  18. Re:So what if it doesn't get rated? on Possible Half Life 2 Troubles in Australia · · Score: 1

    I agree with you.I am constantly amazed at how people spout off about Manhunt and how you kill innocent people.

    While the main character was a murder who was to be put ot death, he is actually one of the LEAST reprehensable characters in the game.
    He gets to try to protect his innocent family members, who are ultimately killed anyway while he is powerless to do anything but watch. The cops he runs into are dirty, on the payroll of the villian. The reporter he has to protect, same goes for the homeless guy.

    If you find the game not to your taste at least use facts and truth to get your viewpoint across.

    Thats what happens when you buy a Dell, or a Packard Bell, or any branded PC. You get price screwed.
    Didnt realize what you were using for the baseline priceing your post.
    That monitor alone was over $600 of your cost if not more. I didnt sell a lot of Sony Trinatron stuff back then because it was so expensive and most customers wanted a decent PC and the cheapest monitor they could get away with.
    I was looking at the $$ value you gave and thinking of what I was able to provide at that time, but I built the boxes myself.

  25. Re:A lot of this applies to Windows XP as well on Game Developers: Stop Overpromising · · Score: 1

    At the time OS/2 Warp came out having more then 1 HDD was not some strange concept. Heck back in the 80's with 8088 machines runing MFM hdd and MS-Dos often people had a second HDD.

    I was not a major OEM and respected my customer so I didnt try to sell them down the river to Packard Bell or Compaq. Beats me how they sold aditional hdd or if they let customers know it was an option.

    OS/2 restore disk? All the OS/2 systems I ever sold were normal machines with OS/2 Warp installed instead of DOS/Win. The customer got the OS/2 media used to install. Did anyone make an OS/2 restore disk ala those horrible crappy windows restore disks?

    Using OS/2 boot manager I never saw issues dual booting DOS and OS/2, can you elaborate as to what they were?
