  1. Re:Dear God, why? on Getting a Classic PC Working After 25 Years? · · Score: 1

    Well your Slashdot ID is not that impressive either so get off my lawn. Time to fire up my still working Amiga 2000....

    Wonder if someone with a lower digit will post....

  2. Re:I loved this game! on Monkey Island To Return · · Score: 1

    U mean Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders. I never finished that one or Maniac Mansion.

  3. Already been done, and ever more freakier stuff.. on Device Keeps Lungs Breathing Outside the Body · · Score: 4, Insightful

    and it was all done in the 1950s. Search for Doctor Sergei S. Bryukhonenko.

  4. Re:Where is the count? on ISS's Node 3 Might Be Named "Colbert" · · Score: 1

    Instead of Bender why not the full name 'Bender B. Rodriguez'

  5. Re:They Had Me, Then They Lost Me on "Live Expansion" Announced for Warhammer Online · · Score: 1

    Well I'm in Puerto Rico so I'm kind of far too (not as far as Hawaii though), anyway I guess there's a price to pay for living in Hawaii. :)

  6. Re:Notes? on "Live Expansion" Announced for Warhammer Online · · Score: 1

    Nice to see another Vortex member. Of course if you're an *evil* Vortex member then I hate you.

  7. Re:They Had Me, Then They Lost Me on "Live Expansion" Announced for Warhammer Online · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have almost your same configuration and I'm running it without a problem:

    MB: EVGA nforce 780i
    CPU: Q6700 (not much difference)
    MEM: 4GB OCZ
    VIDEO: 8800 Ultra

    I even tried it in a friend's Toshiba laptop and it worked perfectly. I don't know why it didn't ran well on your machine.

  8. The important (and finally valid!) question on Google Native Client Puts x86 On the Web · · Score: 4, Funny

    Does it run Linux??

  9. Re:butterfs on Real-World Benchmarks of Ext4 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now waiting for wfbtrfs, i.e. the wife-beater FS.

    Isn't that ReiserFS?

  10. Re:They should make the city underwater... on Fictional Town "Eureka" To Become Real? · · Score: 1

    I'm missing one point, would you kindly moderate me up...

  11. They should make the city underwater... on Fictional Town "Eureka" To Become Real? · · Score: 4, Funny

    ...and let scientist do research in any field they want without goverment intervention. What could go wrong?

  12. Re:Embargo? on LucasArts Embargoes "Clone Wars" Reviews · · Score: 4, Funny

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

    Inconceivable!!!

  13. Re:100m? on New Olympics Scoring: No More Perfect 10.0 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think that if you need judges it shouldn't be considered a sport since the result depends on someones opinion, not actual data (like time, points, distance, etc).

  14. Re:Article Mentions Problems in U.S. Also on Tainted Pills Hit US Mainland · · Score: 1

    I'm offended!!!

    Calling us Puerto Ricans "wetback, siesta-sleeping, lazy ass latins". How dare you mix up your ratial slurs!! Those are mexicans...

      1. wetback: meaning they swam across the Rio Grande to get into the US (I guess cubans should be called the same)
      2. siesta-sleeping: we don't have that tradition here, don't know if mexicans still do this, this tradition comes from Spain
      3. lazy ass - I guess we all fit this category

    If you want to refer to us please do some research. Consult the Ratial Slur Database :)

  15. Re:A slogan on Toshiba Builds Ultra-Small Nuclear Reactor · · Score: 1

    Wind doesn't always blow, tides come and go, Hydro requires large damns, Solar requires land area in the square mile range, geothermal is limited to areas which have large geothermal activity(iceland, yellowstone).

    Isn't that the point of using tides? They come and go?

  16. Re:It is one of the greatest technological wonders on Arecibo Observatory Loses Funding · · Score: 1

    I'm from Puerto Rico too, can you mention which Cat5 hurricanes have passed through here? I must have miss them. Georges and Hugo were Cat 3 and AFAIK those 2 were the only ones where the eye touched land.

  17. Re:Vacation on Arecibo Observatory Loses Funding · · Score: 1

    It's not a vacation if you actually live here. :)

    Funny thing is I've lived here all my life and never been to the Arecibo observatory.

  18. Re:This has me worried on Genetic Modification Produces Mighty Mouse · · Score: 1

    There's no need to worried, I'm sure they'll have a 'fear blocking serum' soon. :)

  19. The first thing I thought of was... on Genetic Modification Produces Mighty Mouse · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Captain America and the super-soldier serum.

  20. Re:Condensed summary of the article on Ultima Online Celebrates 10 Years · · Score: 1

    I was in the beta too, payed for a while. Even though UO had better graphics for some reason I found "Legends of Kesmai" and "AirWarrior" more entertaining.

  24. Re:It wasn't autobooting. on AmigaOS 4 · · Score: 1

    These "Bootblock Viruses" were widespread and generally tended to be pretty innocuous, one of the most common being the "ByteBandit" virus, which did nothing but spread itself.

    The ByteBandit virus also kept a count of all the disks it had infected. I had one with over 30k infections...

  25. Re:Fallout on Sequels We'd All Like To See · · Score: 1

    I didn't saw it coming either. After all the crap I had to go through, fighting so many mutants, losing Dogmeat (I reloaded so many times to keep him alive), and they did that to me?? Jerks. At least they all died eventually. :)

    I didn't mind losing that stupid bad luck dog in Fallout 2...
