that they shouldn't have posted an actual link to this machine?
It's interesting and all, but 99.99999999999999999% of us will never see the site, and the only thing that's going to happen is that the poor little C64 is going to explode. Won't help any of us and will crash the C64 a billion times.
Poor little C64, I'm sure it was a good little computer, before it went into meltdown. I'm going to go and hug my Commodore now.
Blah... come on now. Plesae, take his advice and mod it down. Any self respecting crazy knows that the US envoy in no way represents what the anti-christ is supposed to be.
How will the envoy to the mid east turn everyone away from God/Jesus? Where is his mark on his head? I believe the anti-Christ is supposed to survive massive head trauma or have some sort of major marking on his head (which is why some people actually believed that Jim Brady (of Brady Bill fame) and Mikhail Gorbachev were the anti-Christ).
The truth is, if you sit down and study the bible, you will see that you can predict anything you want from what it says, and interpret it a billion different ways.
For example:
Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness..." (from the King James and Revised Standard Edition)
God must be insane! He'll calling himself us and using "our" for "his" possesive! Insane! Or... there are multiple gods! I think it's pretty clear right there. "Let us make man in our image". Clearly God is referring to himself and his buddy gods (Zeus, Bast, Beelzebub, etc.).
Another one: Matthew 24:38, 39: "For as in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day Noah entered the Ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away"
It clearly states right there that we will have no idea that the "end times" are coming. And since I'm guessing that you would think I would not be one of the that would be saved, the very fact that you warned me, and that I now have knowledge of the "end times" coming, proves that it's not coming! Uh oh!
Jesus will be coming for his people very soon
Oh, yeah, because Y2K (y2khai?) is coming! Wait... wait a second... it's already happened... hmm... guess we'll just have to wait another millenia (as we all know, God bases all his decisions upon our calendar).
I know probably most of my thinking is flawed here... but whatever... I'm sick of wack jobs like this guy. He's probably one of those guys who thinks that the perfect, blind, crippled, unbaptised non-christian 6 year old in the mountains of China will burn in hell for all eternity, just because he isn't a devout Christian, even though he's been as perfect a human being as anyone else in the world. If that's the case, then there's clearly no God... for if there is, he made quite the mistake with his little system, and I've always thought that most definitions of God included the idea that he's perfect.
Well, enough of my flawed thinking. Back to studying CS...
Used to spend hours a day playing around with Photoshop. It affected me so much that one time during an art class I screwed up my painting and reached for CTRL-Z to undo my mistake.
yeah, I saw that link after I posted it and skimmed through it. The person in mention has never encountered problems from the leading integers but you could easily switch the row + column + 4 char name to 4 char name + row + column to alleviate any potential issues.
An example I've seen used for a larger server farm. Looking at the layout of the server farm, they're usually aligned in rows and columns.
They had the name as such:
Row + Column + 4 letter name.
So, for the Joe's Deli example, which is in row 15 and column 20, you could have: 1520jdel.domain.com
You could also have:
Row + Column + 2 letter name + 2 letter service type
So for Joe's Deli again:
1520jdwb.domain.com
The downside is if you physically move the servers around, it can cause problems.

GeForce4 MX (For graphics geeks: slightly disabled version of the GeForce 4)
Actually the GeForce4 MX is a totally different chipset than the Geforce4 TI. The Geforce 4 MX is based on the NV17 chipset where as the Geforce4 TI is based on the NV25.
What does this all mean? The MX version is much slower than the TI version. The TI version is almost 3 times faster.

Great reading skills.
Your post again:
you are actually the reason that Slashdot hasn't posted this article until now, as it's YOUR job to send in news
My job? That must be where all those paychecks are coming from. Kind of wondered about that. First of all, it's usually pretty safe to say that anything that appears on CNN Headline news has usually been beaten to death on Slashdot for about a year. Secondly, after having 20-30 articles rejected on this account and my last (including several that were posted about 2-3 weeks after the story was rejected) I decided to stop. I wouldn't be suprised if I actually did submit this story a year ago. I love the "shut the fuck up" at the end too. Always makes me laugh.
Well, it could very well be. The U of MN is the #2 (or #3) research university in the country (as it pertains to money given to them by the federal gov. and corporations). Especially its medical school.
What did you expect it to be? 60 MPG? Considering what other "standard" SUVs get (BMW X5s, for instance, average about 14-15 mpg (from what I've heard), Jeep Grand Cherokees average about 15-16 (from personal experience)) 9.5 MPG isn't half bad. It's actually better than I would expect.

Why is it that I have been playing video games since the Atari and have never heard of the company SNK? I've never heard of any of those games before. It's amazing that their company could survive that long being that unpopular.
It's amazing you could have been alive so long and still have such a self-centralized view of the world. Amazing fact: there's actually stuff that's extremely popular out there, that neither you, nor I, have heard of!
Damn, that sucks. SNK made probably my second favorite game of all time, TNK III, which I still play on my C64 to this day (first favorite is Castle's of Dr. Kreep).
So I can go with Apples new pretty junk and putz around at 11 mb/s (and pay more) Or I can go with Intel's recently released 802.11A wireless cards, pay less, and get 54 mb/s.
Hmm... tough choice really.

4 disk VCD version?
I've got a 2 disk...
Picture quality is ok, but I'm guessing the 4 disk is probably a lot better. Sound is poor on my version.
this handheld probably won't be available for at least 6 months for us Canadians *grumbles*.
Or you Canuckers could just order it online and... receive it exactly when us Yanks do.
yeah, I saw that link after I posted it and skimmed through it. The person in mention has never encountered problems from the leading integers but you could easily switch the row + column + 4 char name to 4 char name + row + column to alleviate any potential issues.
Total number or servers that can be named via this scheme:
100 (00-99) rows * 100 (00-99) columns
10,000 servers total.
An example I've seen used for a larger server farm. Looking at the layout of the server farm, they're usually aligned in rows and columns.
They had the name as such:
Row + Column + 4 letter name.
So, for the Joe's Deli example, which is in row 15 and column 20, you could have:
