  1. Re:That unpossible! on The Moral Pathology of Vice City · · Score: 1

    When they're talking about Rockstar Games, I think you'd be surprised.

  2. Re:Programs running amuck. on Helping Computers Help Themselves · · Score: 1

    Now here's one that can do just that, run amuck, and the repeatable conditions to get it to misbehave: Arachne 1.70, running on top of MSDOS.

    Why would you ever want to use that in the first place?

  3. Re:Utopian novels on Slashback: Pop-Ups, Books, Qmail · · Score: 1

    Actually, Peter Wiggin rose to power because of insightful things he had written on the net.

  4. Re:Isn't it odd... on WorldCom Fraud Doubles · · Score: 1

    I don't really follow sports where the Amercians have a 'world series' without letting an other countries play

    Small parts of Canada, I think... :-)

  5. Re:Crop circle HOWTO on Disney Making Fake Crop Circles? · · Score: 1

    Oops, my mistake. The person who wrote this page wrote about a spectacular manmade formation and followed with an argument against the idea that the Milk Hill circle could be manmade. Sorry 'bout that.

  6. Re:Crop circle HOWTO on Disney Making Fake Crop Circles? · · Score: 1

    Uhh, I guess you didn't read that page very carefully.

    Quote:
    " ... don't tread into the standing crop or you will crease the plants and give the game away. Since all the circles are several feet apart from each other, with standing crop in-between, you will have to levitate over the field so as not to make a mark while laying down the perfect spirals in each one. And you won't forget to do this for all 204 circles now, will you!? Incidentally ... you have about 240 minutes of night cover, which means just over 60 seconds per circle. No, you can't waste time for a pee."

    This little essay is, in fact, an argument against the idea that it is possible to make that particular crop circle by hand.

  7. Re:your sig on Where are the 'Construction Set' Games? · · Score: 1

    That's a Douglas Adams reference. It's slightly paraphrased, but the original quote is said by a human-hating, constantly depressed robot, so it all makes sense. In other words, he resents all people and tries to avoid meeting them.
