  1. Re:Recycled? on Sun Donation Spurs Linux Cluster at Purdue · · Score: 1

    Hillenbrand, WEST SIDE!

  2. What, is this supposed to be amazing? on Reviving A Dead Hard Drive The Hard Way · · Score: 1

    I see this happen at work every few weeks when some customers hard dive shits the bed and they want their precious email or some garbage. I see nothing special enough to warrent the overload of the poor server hosting this page. Move along, nothing to see here

  3. Well this is a rip off on Run Your Car on Grease · · Score: 1

    A rip off of this which almost makes this a repost of old news. Way to go

  4. Re:Alright on Winex 3.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Works just fine in WINE. You need freecell.exe and cards.dll and runs perfect.

  5. Re:This isn't a smart deduction on Microsoft Quits OpenGL ARB · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    So much for this comment box paying attention to the whitespace I put in, in the above post.

  6. This isn't a smart deduction on Microsoft Quits OpenGL ARB · · Score: 3, Interesting

    "which means they only want DirectX. I'm not too suprised by this move, as OpenGL is the only viable API blah blah blah....." If you haven't noticed, OpenGL is going nowhere fast. I wouldn't want to spend whatever money it costs them to be involved in it either. I use both Windows(only for a few games) and Linux. OpenGL barely does anything anymore in terms of advancing, while DirectX is moving and fairly well. They are going in a good direction and I would personally prefer they focus on that. OpenGL will be there for those programs that are going to use it, but thinking OpenGL will replace DirectX is nothing but a pipe dream. I thought most of you "Down with Microsoft" zealots wouldn't want Microsoft involved in anything on your non-MS OS. So isn't this a winning situation for you?

  7. Re:Well on Gloss Plastic Could Eliminate Auto Painting · · Score: 1

    Yes, but I am speaking of a car. To me there is a difference between an overpriced $9.95 Crystal Purple Nokia Phone faceplate and a surely few thousand dollar cover to my beat up finish. The information above about the special dyes will be the way to go if it is cheap enough since anyone can paint a car, or go down to your local body shop and get it done quite cheap plus the cost of materials. I just hardly find comparing replacing the entire "cover" to my car to a cheap cell phone cover very insightful.

  8. Well on Gloss Plastic Could Eliminate Auto Painting · · Score: 2, Interesting

    What occurs if you want to change the color of your car. Apparently paining it would be a sin if this material is supposed to replace paint. So that means you need to have the entire plastic surface removed and a new one put on?

  9. Love for the bank on Online Banking And Browser Support · · Score: 1

    My bank supports any browser with SSL capabilities. So I enjoy it. Teachers Credit Union... but I'm not a teacher.

  10. After these important announcements on Your Genome Scanned While You Wait · · Score: 1

    Life, brought to you by the letters A C G T.

  11. Has he tried to fly one? on The Coming Air Age · · Score: 1

    I doubt it. They are alot harder than cars to operate. NOT easier. IIRC, there are even videos on how to operate them on howstuffworks.com

  12. Re:Proving you know the material on More on MIT OpenCourseWare · · Score: 1

    Here we just take the test out exam. And if you pass it, you get credit.

  13. Old news on Type With Your Eyes · · Score: 1

    I saw a different version of this for handicapped individuals who cannot use their hands. Though this was on Discovery Channel about 5 years ago. This is just another person who is trying to take credit for it. Though I like the USAF implimentation of it. As you fly your jet fighter, you don't need to aim, you just look where you want to fire and that's where the bullets fly.

  14. Re:Super Mario 3 on SNES? on The Technology Behind ID's Games · · Score: 1

    Yeah I know.. I hate that cartridge.. but it wasn't developed for the SNES as it said in the article.

  15. Super Mario 3 on SNES? on The Technology Behind ID's Games · · Score: 1

    The article says Super Mario Brothers 3 was made for SNES. This is wrong. It was on NES.

  16. DVD+R will win on Which DVD Recordable Format Will Win? · · Score: 1

    Since DVD-R is more popular and better, DVD+R will come down in price so everyone and their dog who doesn't have one will buy one "on sale with a $200 rebate from Best Buy" and then DVD+R wins. The best technology doesn't always win out.. Ex: Beta vs VHS

  17. Here is a chair too, on DIY BMW Computer Chair · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Here is another computer chair. Interstingly enough, the computet has a BMW logo on it. Atleast, I think it is. I don't read Korean nor can tell for sure if it says "BMW"

  18. Re:Yes Fuckface on Death to the 3.5" Floppy? · · Score: 0

    What kind of school do you go to? At mine we can directly email the homework to the professor from the lab. Some classes we have special programs that submit the homework to the professor. "Email it from the classroom, to the lab, to my dorm, back to the lab, then to the professor"? You make it sound like one of the Jordan vs Bird McDonals commercials.

  19. Panquake? on Cube: A Modern 3D Game Engine · · Score: 0

    Other than the fact that there is a meal at the local resraunt called the "Panquake", All you can eat pancakes.. maybe this will be worth something. All panquake is, is quake with "fov 360" turned on by default. But a new game engine could be cool none the less

  20. In the end on Social Robot? · · Score: 0

    It will just be like the last robot I read about. They will put this robot against other robots in a fighting arena and then break loose only to be found in the parking lot making a B-line for the nearest bar.

  21. I don't use Real on Real Will Include Ogg Vorbis Support · · Score: 0

    Real is too slow for me to use. I would rather not even use Real Player. But maybe this will allow for better support(somehow) and maybe some improvement in the player and the format itself.

  22. All you really need.... on The Open Source Cookbook? · · Score: 0

  23. Oh good! on 16,000 CWRU Computers Getting Gigabit Ethernet · · Score: 0

    Higher tuition costs. Can't wait.

    I learned SQL at devshed which helped me learn PHP which got me a job programming.
