  1. when will CT bots use it? on Ready, Steady, Evolve · · Score: 0

    I want FPS bots like on CT, or other fps games to start using AI/Genetic programmed bots that 'grow' and get better, but dont act unrealisticly, and aim like the terminator.

  2. they watch star trek too much on Microsoft's Vision Of Future Workplaces · · Score: 0

    where picard gets a message from earth in video form.

    I can see it now, every MS employee will get a video email from Bill Gates, "welcome salves, today you must kiss my ass, while i get $6m richer, and your stocks/life savings diminish by 1.2%"

  3. Re:Have Motorola's chips really lagged behind Inte on Pentium-Based Macs The Future of Apple? · · Score: 0

    Yep, thats why gcc/rendering on a $8000 sun/400mhz is the same speed as a $100 600mhz celeron box

  4. That looks better than WTC lights... on Send Morse Code Over Stockholm By Laser · · Score: 0

    Might better than those dim WTC lights they had, why didnt they just get the same amount of powered laser instead of 5% flood lights.

  5. TWO buttons are a must for games... on More Switching Stories · · Score: 0

    single mouse buttons suck, might be ok for general desktop use, but for specialized apps like games or cad, you need more than 1 damn stupid arse button.

  6. Re:I'm only a humble C programmer, but.... on Running 100,000 Parallel Threads · · Score: 0

    but its all software... big deal

    linux is less special, its just different.

  7. Re: it has to be fair!! on Blue LED Inventor Loses Patent Fight · · Score: 0

    if movie actors like arnie get $30m per movie, then rightly so the person responsible for the 'brains' should get more than 0.001 % of profits

    Ironicly at least in communism, everyone even the manager get the same, :) and all of society benefits..

  8. Re:Liberty?? Passport??? Plan 9???? on Passport vs. Plan 9 · · Score: 0

    makes you wish you were in sovient union with a one system by law eh....

    aahhaahhahha

    i love keeping track of 40 accounts/passwords.

    great, sure is KISS

  10. Cant be as bad as WorldCom/Enron CEOs on Nokia calls Wireless Warchalkers 'Thieves' · · Score: 0

    Nokia, people who war chalk arent even 1% as evil as all the CEOs/board members of many corporates.

    At least we earn money from our hard work, not sit in a board room and say , "yes bob" and get $5000/day

  11. Re:Sure they do! on Politicizing Science · · Score: 0

    How about an IQ test before voting?

    That way all those wrong choices wont be made..

  12. why is slash slow on egypt story?? on Politicizing Science · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Wheres the follow up?

    BTW another slash bug

    "Slashdot requires you to wait 20 seconds between hitting 'reply' and submitting a comment.

    It's been 17 seconds since you hit 'reply'!

    This is my first comment today. Lame code.

  14. Re:just buy a 2nd PC shmucks on If You Port It, They Will Come · · Score: 0

    Man for the price of photoshop you could buy a brand new PC, so why would a linux user buy PS? If he has the $, he will buy a new dedicatad new machine as well.

    If computers cost $9000, then the OS is important, but if a PC costs $299, it doesnt matter so much any more.

    (Btw these two minutes waiting between posts suck)

  15. Re:DUH on If You Port It, They Will Come · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Solution is to just start a new desktop system, like apple did with OSX, but you still run the old software. THe new system should be well developed and great etc....

    But its too late, we have win32/.net and we have OSX, developers dont want 3!!!!

    The real solution is to just give up, dump gtk/motif/x all that crap, and just go with win32 gui apis subsystem (ontop of X or a new GDI) or OSX gui apis, ie gnustep.

    But think about it, MS could port explorer.exe and subsystems to linux/X and it would like identical to XP, but they wont.

  16. Re:I disagree, you neglect the transaction costs on RIAA Seeks Summary Judgement Against P2P Services · · Score: 0

    How hard could it be to write a 'client' for IRC which auto listed/searched each bot and made it AS EASY as napster.

    Hello, mc fly? a killer app in the making, get cracking and code it loosers.

    A nice gui app sitting on top of irc/mirc whatever, or new client, /ctcp users xdcc list, or login/dir whatever the new bots do.

  17. Re:History... on RIAA Seeks Summary Judgement Against P2P Services · · Score: 0

    hmm there was no IP protection for thousands of years, didnt stop the civilized worled from growing, no patents on boats or wheels.

    People will share regardless of what laws there are.

  18. i have a better p2p solution, no server needed on RIAA Seeks Summary Judgement Against P2P Services · · Score: 0

    I propose a new standard

    everyones homepage/webserver, should have mp3.xml
    or mp3index.html as the shared mp3 default file list.

    That way google can cache/catalogue them all, and we can just use normal http to serve the files.

    Done.

  19. Re:3 Mp vs. film on Canon Mistakenly Announces 11-Megapixel Digital Camera · · Score: 0

    Inkjets are not that great at printing, why didnt you send your digital file to kodak to print at a high quality $50k printer?

  20. Re:11mp is waaaay too many (for most people) on Canon Mistakenly Announces 11-Megapixel Digital Camera · · Score: 0

    Funny how my 35mm photos printed look worse that 1280 prints, or maybe kodak consumer prints are crap, (although negatives might be 2048x quality, the prints arent)

  21. Re:What a waste! on Power Your AMD Via Tesla Coils · · Score: 0

    if I have no karma to vote for 'good' posts, at least people with no karma to mod down stuff....

    This is so unfair.

    Karma point building will skew the overall results ofposts over time here.

    After 500 days, 95% of slash will be controlled by those few 0.01 % of people with 12000 points.

  22. Re:How to put you competitors out fo business... on Slashback: GameBand, Nexia, Lunarocks · · Score: 0

    step 4. Call your own lawyers, to defend your competitor, and make $ that way

  23. I personally use a laser printer... on Linux Outpacing Macintosh On Desktops · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Since its higher quality, much faster, and no hassel with ink bleeds etc...

    I only use my color IJ for photo prints, but even that might end up obselete soon since kodak does reasonable prints off a net account that posts the pics to you.

    My need to print photos is less now, after all, why do I need 1200 photos lying around, when I have it all on CD and HD.
