  1. Re:Damn it, damn it, damn it on Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith · · Score: 1

    it probably has to do with the fact that you saw the first 3 movies before you saw the prequels and you knew what to expect.

  2. Re:A REPORTER GUESSED THIS OVER A MONTH AGO! on Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith · · Score: 2, Interesting

    how about

    Rise of the Sith

    at least it sounds better than the lame meaningless [mockingly creepy voice] Revenge of the Sith!!! [/mockingly creepy voice]

    I mean really, what are they getting revenge for?

  3. Revenge? on Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith · · Score: 1

    Revenge for what? so far we have see the Sith playing in the background on both sides of the fight and even got the Jedis to fight along side the Sith Army of clones!!!

    seems to me that the Sith are in need of anything but revenge.

    when I was a kid I had the privilege to be able to walk through the mockup that NASA had built of the ISS down in Huntsville Alabama. I can remember how exciting it was and all the cool things we were told would be possible when it was actually built.

    oh well.

    he did not support terrorists? so what do you call paying $25,000 to the families of Suicide Bombers? or are they not terrorists because they are just killing Jews?

    no, you should have done it later actually. the technology available today makes it safer and better.

    umm, you have a Xeon system based off the P3, not a P3 duely since the P3 is incapable of duel proc setups.

  14. Re:Doom 3 Technology on Doom 3 System Requirements Revealed · · Score: 1

    they use OpenGL and have always done so because they make cross platform games. the mac version will be out in about 4 months after the PC version (which is good because all the bugs will be worked out) and it will probably run recommended on a 1.2 GHz G4 but the GFX card reqs will probably be as high as on the PC.

    the Linux version should be out in a month or so afterwards.

    sorry, my hard drive is still gonna be faster than a network connection. but backup solutions would be nice.

  16. Re:Security vs Liberty. on 1984 Comes To Boston · · Score: 1

    great, lets set a precedence of "get a group together that is large enough and start terrorizing so that the government will meet your demands.

    dealing with terror demands when you are not an involved party but have been caught up in it by accident is one thing, but when you are the target, deals are out of the question.

    yeah, like the french and russians wanted to...you know, those nations that just happened to be getting kick backs from Saddam. and we all know that the UN had the best interests at stake with their corruption in the oil for food program.

    I am all for cool heads ruling the day and all, but to put our trust in having a consensus in the UN or even among our allies is not how to run a foreign policy.

    hmm, we live in a police state yet we have the worst crime in the western world? you are aware that in a police state like Singapore or the soviet union in its hay day or China under Mao, the crime rate was nearly zero.

    we are far from a police state.

    when I heard about the idea that was bopping around about postponing the elections in the event of a terror attack, I thought, hmm, I would still vote on election day. then My wife said "what good would that do, the new day would still be public knowledge and they could stage another one on the new day" .

    that gave me pause. could Bush actually use terrorism to usurp the US democracy Via the continual postponement of the elections?

    umm, no, a Lithium Ion Battery is actually better when you charge it when ever possible, not when it is drained. Full recharges shorten the life of the battery.
