What the articles don't tell you is that Sherry will be coming along for the trip, making her the first talking mouse in space.:-)
I also do hope Lord British brings enough ginseng, mandrake root, and spidersilk.
a bunch of questions

C# In-Depth
·
· Score: 5, Insightful
Could it be that C# is one of the most widely used simply because of the installed base of windoze machines all over the world and not because of any technical merit? Most current languages have compilers and interpreters that run on windoze; what makes people choose C# over the others? Just how much impact has C# had on computing sciences as a whole, anyway?
For making the 4th (3rd if you don't count Fallout Tactics: BOS) installment in one of my favorite game series completely unplayable on my box! Seriously i know Bethesda makes good games (Elder Scrolls), but they just had to go and make Fallout 3 into an FPS. A huge hog of an FPS, i would add.
[blockquote]It finally looks like it might have a shot at replacing Windows.[/blockquote]
There's nothing to it, actually. Linux has replaced windoze for me for ten years now. The only purpose my hidden windoze setup serves is for playing games and it's even rare for me to find time for that nowadays. Install linux and read, read, read, and practice, practice, practice.
Linux suppot for dialup is next to nil. Yes it's because of those winmodems, but you'd think a couple of the common chipsets would be reverse engineered or something could be done like ndiswrapper.
I mention this cause I have a friend who got a machine with vista and it runs fairly slow, I was going to set him up with linux, but realized he uses a winmodem for dialup. So that blew that idea.
Excuse me? For almost 8 years i had dialup and used Linux exclusively on my machine. Get a hardware modem that connects via serial port and put the winmodem where it belongs - in the trash.
I was there too! I heard later that night all the dolphins had disappeared, and somebody heard strange voices singing the words "so long and thanks for all the fish." It was really weird.

That's pretty big for blackbox. Mine's only 380 Kb.

Thinking in Java is nice. And it's free. http://www.mindview.net/Books/TIJ/
Gives new meaning to "got you by the balls."

+1, Touche.
I like your sig.
d00d, that's a "q", not a "g". Mr Squid 0.
I wouldn't be surprised if China had an axe to grind against m$ and faking an embarrassing incident such as this would serve as a slap to m$.
I'll take Miss Morissette's definition, thank you very much.

Or this:
1) 1 master "hacker" in a room
2) hot eurobabe giving him a blowjob
3) burly gangsta thug pointing a gun at his head
4) ???
5) profit!
Hungarian notation. Ugly.

Grah. I also forgot to ask if they make a PS/2 version too.
Looks cool and all, but do they make a version with the Ctrl and Caps Lock keys interchanged?
I'd give him a cake with Tux on it!
