  1. Re:It depends... on Do We Spend More On Linux Or Windows? · · Score: 1

    Doesn't the fact that a "stable" operating system from Microsoft(biggest software vendor) crashes three to four times a week, and only if you don't run the applications the same company supplies as "productivity" applications (office) bother you a bit? If you use Linux and submit bug reports, you can be sure that bug will be fixed by the next stable release.

  2. OS? on TRS-80 Laptops Still Plugging Along · · Score: 1

    What I really want to know is how to put Linux on one of those.

  3. I thought... on EFNet on the Rocks Again · · Score: 1

    I was trying to connect to EFNet yesterday, and It wouldn't let me. I thought that they didn't like me!

  4. Re:Humans in fairy tales on Reviews:Shrek · · Score: 1

    On HBO's "Making of: Shrek", the animators said that they had the human moving too realistic, so they toned it down. They (like you said) were aiming for a fairytale feel. They wanted a realistic, believable world, but they didn't want it photorealistic. The animation of the movie really was incredible. They were able to make the ogre's gut and clothes move great. The donkey acted a whole lot more like a dog than anything else.

    I can't find a good link for this (too lazy), but I don't think it will be hard to find.

  5. Re:The shuttle paperwork on What does it take to make the Space Shuttle Fly? · · Score: 1

    Are you thinking of putting people in the shuttle that is being "sledded"? How big would the shuttle have to be and how long would it stay up? I think designing, building, and maintaning the jet would cost much more than current shuttle launches do, which under Bush's budget plan would not fly with NASA.

  6. Re:Lifestyle Weapon? A.I.D.S.? on The DNA Bomb · · Score: 1

    Wasn't Rainbow Six about a DNA bomb type virus? I won't be surprised to see this being big in the future, with countries drafting a Biological Warfare treaty a lot like the Nuclear Weapons treaty that is all but being disregarded today.
