  1. Re:RTS them on One Million AOL discs to be returned to AOL · · Score: 1

    I'm confused. On a somewhat related note, my Dad simply writes on the outside of the AOL disk mailer: "REFUSED DELIVERY - PLEASE REMOVE FROM MAILING LIST" AFAIK he has yet to receive another disk from AOL (he was getting several a *month* at one time). He's also dramatically cut down on the number of amount of other junk mail he gets. vs. AOl sends their CDs 4th class bulk, meaning that if you try to return to sender the post office just throws them away. AOL won't pay a dime. Which is true? They can't both be.

  2. Game Trading Service on Review: RedOctane Game Rental Service · · Score: 1

    Are there any services available that allows gamers to trade games they own? Each trader would just pay their own shipping. I searched for this service one time but couldn't find anything like it available.

  3. Re:Become a slashdot editor? on Beware of Fake Monkey Automatons · · Score: 1

    I resent that remark. We West Virginian's prefer to display dead native animals such as whitetail deer, black bear and squirrels. We wouldn't be caught dead with one of them dead foreign critters in our living room!

    Hey, what's wrong with Pop Rocks you troll!!

    Ok, thanks!

    Not trying to be lame but... I don't get it. What does "goes up to eleven" imply?

    MS Project maybe? Yeah, right!

    Hey man, nerds have children too!

    O' bother.

  10. Has anyone seen Spot? on Build Your Own Battlemech · · Score: 2, Funny

    Put some real rockets in there and quiet down that barking dog next door!

  11. Re:War is over unless AOL changes default on AP reports on renewed "Browser War" · · Score: 1

    Why not put a status message on the bottom of the browser showing that the site was designed without following standards? This would put the responsibility for the shoddy design back on the webmaster. Then maybe encourage the user to contact the webmaster about redeveloping the site to be standards compliant.

  12. Re:aww crud. on First Maglev Installation Going Up · · Score: 1

    I was at Virginia Beach this weekend. They could have definitely used a Maglev system. Getting up and
    down Atlantic Avenue was a nightmare. The trolley system creates a nice atmosphere, but is frustrating to see potential traffic lane underused because of the trolley system. An elevated Maglev system would be a great improvement.

  13. Re:2 out of 4?? on Quickies from a Galaxy Far Far Away · · Score: 2, Informative

    Did anyone see the pithy review in the Washington Post? It almost seems like something that comedian Dennis Miller would write.

  14. Re:Only Xbox is at a loss. on PS2 Price May Fall, Gamecube Staying Put · · Score: 1

    Get rid of the hard drive (stupid idea in a games console), etc.

    Without a hard drive, where are users going to be able to install all of those security patches once they get the console online?

  15. Gator makes it easy!! on What Turns You Off About Evaluation Software? · · Score: 1

    I don't know why everyone acts like filling out registration forms is such a problem. I got this great program called "Gator" which does it for me. And it was free!!(Actually I'm not even sure how it got on my computer). Anyhow, it know everthing about me after i used it once and now it fills out all my web forms for me. U can't beat that with a stick! I gotta get back to looking for a new WebShots desktop...adios

  16. Taking Battle Bots to the next level... on Powered Exoskeletons In The Near Future? · · Score: 1

    I just hope Vince McMahon doesn't get wind of this technology. It would really make for some great PPVs though.
