  2. Re:Come on softcore p0rn... on Program Tivo over AOL · · Score: 1

    hey, if someone else will do all my skin-o-max scheduling for me, sign me up!

  3. winXP birthday today also on Linux Is 10 Today · · Score: 1

    it's kinda ironic that windows XP source was finalized today, marking today it's "birth"-day.

    (linux and winXP share a birthday? is that all they share?)

  4. Re:This has happened before.... on RIAA To Target CD-R · · Score: 1

    However, why stop there - paper products solely exist for the benefit of photocopiers and computer printers, and whose sole use is also illegal copyright violations.

    you gotta be kidding me...you don't think people write their own material and print it with a computer printer? that point is a kinda reaching...

  5. Re:My personal Faves: on Stuffing Junkmail Postage-Paid Envelopes? · · Score: 1

    Two Words: AOL Discs

    good idea. normally i just microwave them and use em as coasters.

  6. Re:Some tips from an Ex Contractor on Is There Still A Contract Market For Programmers? · · Score: 2

    Work directly for a contract house, some places (e.g. Anderson Consulting)

    Actually, Anderson Consulting is now called Accenture :)

  7. Re:You're getting ahead of yourself on E-Mail Clients That Support X.509 Digital IDs? · · Score: 1

    yup. been using it for multiple mail accounts for years.

  8. Re: Kings Quest was in there.... on The Top 15 PC Games Of All Time · · Score: 1

    King's Quest IV was on the list

  9. Not Hollywood on On The Dune Miniseries · · Score: 1

    It was actually filmed overseas(Germany I think), not in Hollywood. But I get your point.

  10. Re:Enjoyable and well done, with some flaws on On The Dune Miniseries · · Score: 1

    Here here. I also liked the Harkonens in the movie a lot better. I liked the whole dark atmoshpere of Geidi Prime in the movie. That's what Lynch excels at. And definatly, the actors in the movie were far better. William Hurt isn't very convincing as the Duke, who is supposed to be more repsected than the Emperor.

    I'm also gonna stick with it, I just hope it gets more involved.

  11. Re:The mini-series. on On The Dune Miniseries · · Score: 1

    How can you trash the movie more than this series? The movie wasn't completetly by the book, but at least Lynch isn't putting drama(princess and Paul) in their for ratings! The Lynch version at least captured the dark atmosphere of the Dune universe. The charactars in this series are all idots. Paul is a sissy and no other actor displays any decent acting whatsoever!

  12. Re:The mini-series. on On The Dune Miniseries · · Score: 1

    Right on. The guild were much better in the Movie. They looked more sinister. They ruled the universe, not the emporer. He was just their pupper ruler.

  13. Re:The mini-series. on On The Dune Miniseries · · Score: 1

    I completly disagree. The actors did a *much* better job in the movie. The actors in this series don't seem "into" it at all. None are displaying any emotion wahtsoever.

    Paul: a complete wuss. he's a daddies boy, not the quizat haderak(sp?)

    Gurney: another wuss. how is he Pauls mentor when he can barly stand up fighting him.

    Feyd: he ain't Sting!

    etc.

    I'll watch the rest for the effects(worms are awsome), but the acting better improve!

  14. Kill all you want, we'll make more on Bone Marrow Can Grow New Brain Cells · · Score: 2

    Wow, this is *great* news. Now I can drink all I want and not worry(like I did before) about killing brain cells, since they can be replaced! It's about time Science came up with something *I* can use.

  15. Re:Lynch Movie was Great! on Dune Miniseries Airs Tonight · · Score: 1

    i noticed that as well. they didn't dive into paul and chani's relationship very much, they just state "Paul and Chani's love grew." it seems like the ran out of money. the battle at the end, where they used "atomics" was not done very well. but overall, i enjoyed it.

  16. Re:Lynch Movie was Great! - but Lynch hated it!!! on Dune Miniseries Airs Tonight · · Score: 1

    i enjoyed the movie...and i thought Stewart did a fine performance.

    (FYI: Lynch only disowned the TV version.)

  17. Re:Is this just because it hasn't collected cruft? on Hotmail about to collapse under load · · Score: 1

    Oh, whoever hired you is a moron.

    your just mad cuz you're probably doing something you hate. if i didn't wanna do something, i'd put it on my resume too.

  18. Re:No, of course it isn't ... on The Open Windows Project · · Score: 1

    How much effort would you put in to clone something that's cheaper than a tank of gas?

    I dunno...gas is getting pretty expensive these days ;)

    Um, Mel Brooks is alive and well(debatable :)

  20. Re:Ah, but you miss the point, grasshopper on Worlds Slowest NT Server · · Score: 1

    You must be kidding! I, as well as my cube mates(and countless other NT users), reboot at least once a week. I'm not doing any compiling locally either, just telnet'ing to solaris boxes and using word(and some occasional web surfing, like now.)
