this is all well and good, but what about internet connections to the evil mirror universe, the one where Steve Jobs has a moustache?
they presumably, already have an evil internet up and running, but running on evil protocols. how long before we can connect with, say, evil google or - shudder - evil slashdot?
i wonder if apple will stop building-in regular video-out on the motherboards and go for digital only. (not that i would object, seeing as how crts are really clanking big valves and belong in 1930s horror movies alongside the van de graaf generators and jacob's ladders.)
i regularly run my mouse off the edge of my desk because i forget to pick it up and move it to position it right. this thing looks like it might be difficult to do that.
(also, this guy's boss is going to be so mad when he sees what he's done to his keyboard!)
we get 2000 people to each put $10000 towards sending a really good-looking chick into space. then we each get to have sex with her, so we can tell people at parties that we've had sex with a chick who's been in space.
if you know anything about science you would know that anything in your imagination can kill you, so by extension, if you think you've bumped into something then you would have to stop moving.
similarly, when like a fleet of kamikazee F-16s piloted by ghost velociraptors shoot at the robot's head, you would actually bleed from your own head.
it's so obvious if you think about it momentarily.
what i mean is that people will have no choice between the OS X-box and wintel (or unix if you can get it to install properly).
this is just going to mean that games will get faster - remember how you couldn't look up and down in Doom? - but need more RAM and ROM and processors with more MPh.
i am mostly fat, so this wouldn't work for me. like what am i going to do, go to like a gym or stop eating or something just so i can run Lotus 1-2-3-4?
the main problem with running Windows MP3 on a playStation is that because Microsoft's Napster has been shut down by George Bush and his cigar-toting interns in the government, there won't be any OPENgl music softwear left, anywhere on the interweb.
the best thing would be for Mac to steal the market with its cube thing that runs on linus. Go Nintedno!
if quake is all cartoony then when you shoot something it will just have a black face or have a bandage appear on it. and it will be all better in like ten seconds later as though nothing had happened. and all the guns will be frying pans and cannons and 100 ton weights.
this would make quake really difficult so i vote against it.
3d is already out there, guys
on
3D w/o Goggles

· Score: 1
have'nt you been keeping up with games? quake is a 3d thing already and you get to shoot things, not like excell.
this is just a trick to make us buy more equiptment, just like video cards that didn't even let you play video tapes.
The new star trek show should have seven out of ten in it, becuase she's the best one out of the lost in space show. except for the Dr Who hollogram guy. he rocks. Captein Checkotov (sp?) is real lame.
also the klingonians should be really mean again, not all robotified like in the borg show. i can't wait to see it.
i'm the kind of person who likes to know how a language works, rather than just knowing how to.
one thing i like about Forth - the language for Mad Scientists - is how you can track through the source and find out how things work, all built up from about twenty hard coded definitions in the nucleus.
Mad Scientists clearly need a new language, and who would disagree that it should be one that offers the same scope for egomaniacal control freakery as Forth?

When I were bairn, we 'ad to get up at 6am, lick teletype machine clean with our tongues, use landline to timeshared PDP-11 for eighteen hours and then systems operator would kill us and dance about on our graves.
I guess concorde not selling made the UK & France less ambitious about speculating on new aerospace projects. Shame they classified and buried the hotol air-breathing rocket design though.
Slashdot Mirror
yeah, right, Wagner, we should keep sex out of things. so, i guess writing stuff like this is completely out of the question.

my god, you're right. i'm only getting 16777216 colors, not - uh - 4294967296.
where the hell are my missing 4278190080 colors?
and it gets even worse! these colors are all in an additive colorspace! talk about arrogance! why oh why do people put up with this?

i vote that there really ought to be some government office to determine which acts of civil disobedience are allowed.
BEN: They didn't. But we are meant to think they did. These tracks are side by side. Sandpeople always ride single file to hide their numbers.
LUKE: These are the same Jawas that sold us Artoo and Threepio.
BEN: And these blast points, too accurate for Sandpeople. Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise.
yeah, it's pretty deceptive. but it didn't look deceptive at first.
huh, i can't see any concealed tv camera.
wow, imagine what those Magic Eye pictures would look like on a 3D monitor!
i've got an idea:
we get 2000 people to each put $10000 towards sending a really good-looking chick into space. then we each get to have sex with her, so we can tell people at parties that we've had sex with a chick who's been in space.
it's my idea so i get first go.

Luxury.

Q: and try to bring it back in one piece, 007.
Bond: Yesh, Q.
avi tevanian: hey steve, look! some guys are doing kaleidoscope for os X!
steve jobs: cool!
AT: shame they can't get any publicity for it...
SJ: i know! let's sue their asses! sure, it'll make us look bad, but it'll give their project the attention it deserves!
AT: hey, great idea!
SJ: i'll get onto it right away!
AT: yes, but don't stop slamming my dick in the door yet!
SJ: as if!
sfx: Slam!
AT: oooh!
sfx: Slam!
AT: ooohh!
etc etc.
smaller code != better code . .
Agreed: apps like 3D modeling are never fast enough, but how many consumer apps need that power?
OK, other than Quake?
UK doesn't follow through with things?
Like concorde | harrier | tornado | joint strike fighter ?
I guess concorde not selling made the UK & France less ambitious about speculating on new aerospace projects. Shame they classified and buried the hotol air-breathing rocket design though.
