  1. Re:Problems With This Idea on Phoenix Unveils Anti-Theft BIOS · · Score: 1

    No, you are right as I see it. I wonder who the genius was who came up with this idea? I mean damn, this is just too intrusive, not to mention a wide margin for error. If these servers can be pinged, it means they are online, which in turn means it is possible for someone to play a 'joke' or what-not and kill a lot of birds with one stone. Bad idea all around as far as I am concerned.

  2. hmmmmm... on What Would You Put Into A Software Survival Kit? · · Score: 1

    Yaegermeister and knoppix.

  3. Re:I hate cheaters on Cheating Online Gamers · · Score: 1

    Damn skippy. I agree totally with what you are saying. Cheats in single player mode is a good way to learn the maps and practice different strategy, but online cheating is just LAME.

  4. Re:The Gods Must Be Crazy on What's Your Favorite Underappreciated Movie? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, there was a sequel, but it wasn't nearly as good as the first (most aren't)

  5. The Gods Must Be Crazy on What's Your Favorite Underappreciated Movie? · · Score: 1

    This movie is so simple, yet so funny for some reason.

  6. Re:GPS? on Teach A Robot To Drive, Win A Million Bucks · · Score: 1

    it's cool, I've done it before too, so no harm done. Anyway, I just skimmed over the red tape so I guess I jumped the gun on this one.

  7. GPS? on Teach A Robot To Drive, Win A Million Bucks · · Score: 1

    I wonder if a GPS would be a conceivable solution? Maybe you could drive the course yourself and map the course out with gps coordinates then use your calculations to program the vehicle to follow the same route you took. Would probably cost more than a mil to do this effectively, though. just a thought...

  8. Re:Why is anime so great? on An Extensive History of Anime · · Score: 1

    LOL :)

  9. Re:Why is anime so great? on An Extensive History of Anime · · Score: 1

    just kidding... don't resort to violence

  10. Re:Why is anime so great? on An Extensive History of Anime · · Score: 1

    I am not really into japanimation. The eyes are weird looking.

  11. Re:Contra for PS2 on NES PC · · Score: 1

    I wonder if that cheat works on this new contra... what was it? up, up, down, down, left, right, b, a, start, or something like that. I'm not sure, but I used to really dig contra.

  12. Re:Just buy a console! on Gamers, Upgrade your Systems · · Score: 1

    Counter strike would suck without a keyboard/mouse. But I see your point and I don't upgrade as often as most of the gamers I know. I usually wait a couple years before building a new machine. I also game on a console and I think some games are more playable with a gamepad, whether console or pc. But, to each his own I guess.

  13. web browser on Ask Internet Expert Dave Barry · · Score: 1

    Which web browser do internet experts use?

  14. Re:Hardly new on Potato Bazookas · · Score: 1

    My friends and I used to make these quite frequently in high school. It is really quite fun to launch a potato over the autoshop building at high velociities[for a potato] 4 inch pvc combustion chamber with a 1.5 inch barrel seems to make the most distance. And if you shoot one through 1/4 inch screen mesh it makes good french fries.

  15. I'm gonna vote for.... on Elect Steve Jobs President of the United States · · Score: 1

    Silent Bob!

  16. echolink on Ask Kevin Mitnick · · Score: 1

    Hi Kevin, I was wondering if you plan to investigate echolink. I read somewhere that your amateur radio license was reinstated and would like to know what you think about the integration of ham radio/computers in the past 8 years.

  17. simlple thinking on An Unbiased Analysis of Gun Crime vs. Gun Control? · · Score: 1

    ask yourself this: "Do pencils cause misspelled words?" apply the answer to the above question to answer the next question "Do guns cause crime?"

  18. gaming on What's Keeping You On Windows? · · Score: 1

    I have only one windows box (which I'm on right now because I haven't yet been able to get linux working on my DSL connection). The only reasons I keep windoze around is for gaming, DSL, and the fact that all of my computer science classes are taught on windows. I wish my college also had linux/unix courses availible or at least incorporate 'nix into the curriculum.I am pretty new to linux, and it rocks. It is all so new and strange when you are used to windows,and I was getting bored with trying to tweak windows.I think I am the only one in my town who has even heard of linux(thanks to /.) everyone I have talked to thinks it's dos until I startx then they wonder what version of windows i've got.
