  1. Re:Lava monsters? on Site for Moon Base Determined · · Score: 1

    Just make sure you've got some ice spells. Lava monsters are always weak against ice.

    And then every geek will be able to point at the sky and say "That's no moon, it's a space station!" and have it actually be true.

  4. Re:LETS talk about soundcards on British Groups Launch Creative Archive License · · Score: 1

    Didn't the GUS also have an onboard MOD decoder?

    Of course, I just had an old ATI StereoFX (SB clone) until I got my AWE64 (which wasn't as impressive as I'd hoped, and was hell to set up in OS/2 or Linux.)

    The frequency at which Moore's Law stories are posted to Slashot will double every eighteen months.

    A penny for your thoughts.

  12. Re:I don't think so on Music Industry Drafts Code of Conduct for ISPs · · Score: 4, Funny

    So, in other words, France surrendered?

    Or he could glance over at his NIC, see that the link light isn't on, and conclude that the cable must be bad and get another one. All you've accomplished is making a guy go through the mild inconvenience of replacing a network cable when he didn't need to.

  15. Re:CPU hardware on Xbox 2 To Be Unveiled on MTV May 12 · · Score: 1

    They haven't got PS2 or Gamecube emulation working either, but they will. It just takes a while for the emulation projects to catch up to the current hardware (with a few notable exceptions like the near-instant arrival of GBA emulators.)

  18. Re:Italy? on BBC Apologizes To Who Star · · Score: 1

    Actually, the main character is never referred to as "Doctor Who" in the series. He's just The Doctor.

  19. Re:Gnome 2.10? on Hoary Hedgehog Ubuntu 5.04 Released · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's harder to make sure that a package is stable when everyone's compiling it from source with different compiler settings.

    At least you'll be protected from the Terrible Secret of Space.

  21. Re:Doesn't it seem a bit odd... on Sony Patents Matrix-Like Game Technology · · Score: 1

    The movie makers used wires hooked up to the spinal cord at the base of the neck, not ultrasonics.

  22. Re:Why not? on IPTV Revolution Put on Hold · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Saying that you know how to spell because you're from a farm in Texas is like saying that you're an expert pianist because you lost both hands in a woodmilling accident.

  23. Re:Similar to what is described in Mark's Gospel? on Ophthalmologists, Physicists Design Bionic Eye · · Score: 1
