  1. Re:They make games in Australia? on GeForce FX And More From AGDC 2002 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Ratbag Games, makers of Powerslide, Dirt Track Racing and Leadfoot, and winners of a large PS2 contract for 'WOOSC2002' and 'Ikon' (working name only), were founded and are based in Adelaide, Australia and have studios in Adelaide and Sydney.

    This is the one that immediately comes to mind since I live in Adelaide and have met one of the founders, but there are sure to be others.

  2. Re:Uh Oh on Week-Long Free-Software Class for Kids? · · Score: 1

    [Even more off-topic than parent...]

    I have this same problem - didn't realise it was caused by the Intellimouse/PS2 protocol combination - any other protocol is worse. I discovered that it moves the icons by middle-clicking. Try it - middle click on an icon and drag. It doesn't need to click move.

  3. Re:TMDA is a quick route to the roundfile for many on The Measured Effectiveness of Blocking Asian Spam · · Score: 1

    If the list managers and TMDA users had things configured correctly, this wouldn't happen at all. Next time you get a TMDA auth request from a mailing list subscriber, point them to Tim Legant's Cookbook for using TMDA with mailing lists - also linked from The TMDA FAQ.

  4. Not actually Parkes on SETI to Upgrade Software, Telescope · · Score: 2, Interesting
    Actually, it was the dish at nearby Honeysuckle Creek which actually received the transmissions from the first moon landing, but the directors of "The Dish" thought that the Parkes telescope looked better or made a better story, or something...

    Read a fairly accurate review of the movie.
