  1. Re:I modded my xbox... on Modded XBox The Ultimate Multimedia PC? · · Score: 1

    I am considering modding my xbox. Anyone have any advice or recommendations as far as mod chip brands or suppliers?

  2. Re:Price? on The Ultimate All-In-One Storage Solution · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure that Moore's law only applies to cpu speed, not hard drives.

  3. Re:One problem with this on Professor and Student Thwart P2P File Sharing · · Score: 1

    Kazaa is the only popular filesharing protocol that does incomplete hashes. Emule and G2 both do complete hashes, and take much longer to hash your shared folder.

  4. Re:About fucking time. on Google Files for IPO · · Score: 1

    In the realm of search engines, that seems to be the case.

  5. Re:Too much work on Nintendo e-Reader Gets Homebrew Dot-Code Games · · Score: 1

    Doom ported horribly to the SNES. See for yourself. (Click comparison guide on the page that loads.)

    Interesting that you use tattoos to prove that you once believed in discarding the cosmetic things in life.

    If Clear Channel doesn't like them, they could just buy them out.

    I think Ice T said it best: "There'll be another one after me; a hustler."

    If you ever tell anyone that you saw anything other than the planet Venus last night... you're a dead man.

  9. Re:Just because we can on Scotts Testing Genetically Modified Grass · · Score: 1

    The reasons for famine are almost entirely political, with greedy s.o.b's hoarding food, stopping supply lines, etc. The U.S. produces so much surplus food that it pays its own farmers not to work their land. To summarize, the solution to world hunger is not a "miracle tomato" or anything like that; it is working to steadily increase the freedom of all the earth's inhabitants.

  10. Re:Not that simple on Privacy Complaint Against Google's GMail Service · · Score: 1

    Can you recommend a good mail server?

  11. Re:my write-in vote on Anatomy Of 2D Side-Scroller Lecturer Picks Favorites · · Score: 1

    If you liked GunStar Heroes, you might enjoy Mischief Makers, also from Treasure, for the N64. It is the platformer complement to GS Heroes' action game, with tons of depth and weapons, and also a plot.

  12. Re:Bured by the referrer check! on Real 'Akira' Motorcycle · · Score: 1

    I believe it is called "referrer logging". In any event, Opera users can press F12 at any time to enable/disable referrer logging.

  14. Re:FarCry on Creativity, a Problem for the Gaming Industry? · · Score: 1

    You might be interested in some of the other graphics engines made by one of FarCry's developers: http://wouter.fov120.com/

  15. Re:EA used to be the innovator on Electronic Arts' Domination Of The Market - Bad? · · Score: 1

    "It's actually that business-centric attitude which has ensured that EA is the only major third party publisher that's still around from the 80s."



    Not counting Konami, Square, CapCom, the list goes on.

  16. Re:Doesn't Really sound like a great place for OSS on Rapid Internet Growth In Iran · · Score: 1

    Yes, but anyone capable of desiring freedom deserves it.

  17. Re:Interference problems... on Earthlink Invests In Broadband Over Power Lines · · Score: 1

    While I'm sure no one would mind driving Ferraris for the price of a Yugo, I take issue with the rape statement, since most sources estimate women to hold a slight majority on this planet. As far as taxes, how do you know that most people don't pay them? ;)

  18. Re:You're insane on GoldenEye Hackers Find Hidden FPS Level · · Score: 1

    (id should learn from the Goldeneye grenade launcher, what a weapon)
    Someone should really add it to quake 2 or 3, I agree it is far superior to any other Grenade Launcher in the fps genre. Btw, the last semester of highschool, I ditched the textbooks, opting instead to carry an n64, four controllers, and a copy of Goldeneye. Nothing like challenging a punk sucka to a duel. :D

  19. Re:preference deals on Pentagon Cancels Internet Voting System · · Score: 1

    Do you have anonymous voting down under? What is to stop you from telling the Pro-Lifer, "Sure, I'll do that." and then voting any way you like?

  20. Re:Gaming logic on Can Illogical Videogames Still Be Enjoyable? · · Score: 1

    And due to public outcry, the leaf became a feather in Super Mario World, and the Racoon Tail became a cape.

  21. Invisible hand in action. on KISS · · Score: 1

    Those who make electronics "user transparent" will reap great benefits. Those who try to trick the consumer, or simply make clunky products, will fall by the wayside. There are examples everywhere.

    Look at the portable mp3 player market: Where before there was competition between a lot of cludgy products, the ipod has set a new standard for ease of operation and "don't be afraid to break it" factor (battery issues notwithstanding.)
    The Ipod shows the user only what he or she needs to know to get the ipod to play music.

    For an example that is not in the high-tech arena, people pay a premium for Saturn automobiles, simply to avoid being dicked around by a car salesman.

  22. Re:chicks on Looking for High-Tech Watches? · · Score: 1

    That is no secret. By pretending to be someone you're not, you're missing out on the chance to mack on the girls who like geeky watches... f00!

  23. Re:tomorrows news:... on Morpheus Infiltrates Other P2P Networks · · Score: 1

    Morpheus is actually using code from gnucleus, the author of which consistently implements fair network behavior. If you want to connect to gnutella and gnutella2, without the spyware, Gnucleus uses the same code as morpheus. Download and more info at www.gnucleus.com Oh yeah, it's gpl'ed too, and development is active.

    Emule Plus for big files, and SoulSeek for music.
