  1. Re:World of Goo on Ask Slashdot: Really Short Time Wasters? · · Score: 5, Informative

    If you like puzzles, specially hard ones with some nice math and logic try Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzles. I'm currently addicted to sign post, but I can recommend net, light up, and loopy. Depending on the difficulty level, you can spend any kind of time doing them. The puzzles are awesome since you can pick pretty much any difficulty and enter your own parameters. For net I prefer a 25x25 grid, but for signpost I'm currently working on a 7x7.

    They're available in android in a really good port. But stay away from the IOS version, you have to pay and it's garbage.

  2. Re:A week? on Who's Pirating Game of Thrones, and Why? · · Score: 1

    This is probably true. The MPAA is far more superior at ripping off the people who created them thing than any lowly pirate could ever hope to be.

  3. Re:serves 'em right on Doctors "Fire" Vaccine Refusers · · Score: 1

    You know what's more amazing? the fact that the Pox killed MOST newborns for the WHOLE of human history. Not any more because of...you guess it vaccines. Same with Polio, same with countless others. But no, obviously you anti-vax morons know waaaay more than the millions of REAL scientists that have studied, experimented, and produced reproducible results.

  4. Re:It is about time on Doctors "Fire" Vaccine Refusers · · Score: 1

    It's not that simple. Research is showing a correlation to the large number of vaccines as a child and autism. We don't know for sure.

    No, actually we do. This was proven to be complete bullshit.
    Vaccines are DEMONSTRABLY successful in preventing or alleviating diseases that in the past we killing people left and right.
    Just cause you read somewhere about some nut job saying nutty things doesn't mean that decades of research and experimentation are wrong. It just makes you a nut job too.

  5. Re:Free2play in games... on Why Freemium Doesn't Work · · Score: 1

    Slow down there Sparky... Are you telling me that more than one person can play WoW at the same time? That it's... some kind of multi-player game? This changes things.

    No, he's saying that more than one WoW game can play on a single player at once. Like some kind of multi-game player.

  6. Re:Look for LDAP / Active Directory Integration on Internal Instant Messaging Client / Server Combo? · · Score: 1

    Openfire (which has been suggested above) has AD integration. I run it at my school (with 900+ students/staff) and manage all the logins with the central AD server. Easy to set up and configure too.

  7. Re:Let the girlfriend pick the distraction.... on Playing Games While Not Ruining Your Relationship? · · Score: 1

    There's also something to be said about introducing her to video games (not neceseraly the one you're playing) and sharing play time with both of you playing together. I got my girlfriend introduced to The Sims. So I got her all the computer ones, and the GameCube one, and the Gameboy One. Now, whenever I would like to play, she joins me and plays her own games along side me. She likes to talk about what she's doing and I listen, and then I talk about what I'm doing and she listens.

    The other nice thing about this kind of arrangement is that sometimes SHE asks to play for a while, even if I don't want to/can't play, so it's ok for me to ask some time as well.

    I think, however, the most important part is to give her equal (if not more) time. So you can play for 2-3 days straight, and then only spend time with her on the weekends.
