  1. Misleading? on LotR Two Towers Trailer Online · · Score: 1

    It's about right. If the movie follows the 2nd book in the series then it's not misleading.

    Aragorn ( strider ) is going to help with the battle on the frontlines and to reclaim his heritage

    Gandalf returns from the dead as Gandalf the White and more powerful than ever

    Samwise and Frodo trying to get into mordor with Gollum pulled by the lure of the ring to get it back at any cost ( bad hobbitses )

    From what I can see it's pretty much inline

  2. Fathammer on The Wireless Arcade · · Score: 1

    You should check out Fathammer. I've seen these people on various places on the net and their engine looks pretty cool.

    In fact you'll notice from some screenshots that this is the engine used in some of the games that the article talks about

  3. Re:Excellent on Pledge of Allegiance Ruled Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    "My 7-year-old daughter, who attends public school in Utah, is always coming home with little sayings and tidbits about Jesus and god..."

    And somebody's 14 year old son/daughter keeps seeing people bringing court cases against tidbits about Jesus, God, Allah, Buddha etc. Now that 14 year old is feeling uncomfortable.

    People... there are other people who feel uncomfortable when people are talking about low down scumbags in washington.... so should we not allow that. Should children be forbidden from speaking about congressmen?

    I understand people being uncomfortable with a public school system paid for with taxpayer dollars but people who hold those beliefs ALSO pay taxpayer dollars and the right to talk about those things is protected under Free Speech.

    People get upset because God is talked about in public school and say "Freedom of Religion and the right to not believe" and then get upset when a schoolboard decides that "Lord of the Flies" should not be freely available to the very same children by saying "Freedom of speech".

    I understand the points. I believe in God. Others don't. According to the religion I practice I know God as one who says "Tell people, but let people use their Free will to decide". But banning the practice of religion is just the same as banning speech and other fundamental rights

  4. strtok on Pet Bugs? · · Score: 5, Funny

    this has to be the most memorable one.

    it's in the Linux man file

    BUGS
    Never use this function. This function modifies its first argument. The identity of the delimiting character is lost. This function cannot be used on constant strings.

  5. Math Routine on NIST Estimates Sloppy Coding Costs $60 Billion/Year · · Score: 1

    "Better testing could allegedly cut that by one-third"

    My routines show that number to be 1003.02% that can be cut.

  6. Dilbert's Solution on Does Drawing on Experience Infringe on Other's IP? · · Score: 1

    Here's Dilbert's solution

  7. Coincidence? on Scotland: Aliens' Official Favorite Destination · · Score: 1

    They also have a higher concentration of McDonalds?

    Coincidence?

    I think not.
