  1. The RIAA got the program to work? on Record Labels Sue Morpheus, Again · · Score: 1

    Man, bonus points for them in working through the numerous Java issues that turned this program into e-molasses.

  2. So, when will the game be on Kaaza? on Metallica Videogame Planned · · Score: 1

    I can imagine all the fans they ticked off during the Napster days pushing tons of copies out on the net just for this reason.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I have a serious game of Qbert to play.

  3. I can see it now. This will be... on Universal Ebook Format Debated · · Score: 1

    ...Latex and Ghostscript revisited.

    Can we keep inventing more readers for specific uses?

    What's next? A new text reader for Man files that can only be read by one single reader and is hard to port to different text formats?

  4. Bah! What a n00b! You quit playing too soon. on Enter The Matrix - Patches, No Reviews? · · Score: 1

    What If I told you that the entire 'Animatrix' Episodes are available to view within the game?

    What if I told you you could play the game as Neo, Morpheous, or Trinity?

    Is it still a waste?

    This game is LOADED with extras and other cool stuff. The Warchowski Brothers are HARDCORE gamers and went to enormous lengths to make sure that you get your money's worth on this game.

    Of course, you'd have to use your brain a bit to find the hidden stuff I mentioned above.

    P.S. Read the PC requirements for this game before playing it. My money sez that you need to upgrade your PC.

  5. Re:What a joke. on University Sponsored Music Services? · · Score: 1

    There's a big difference between exclusive selling rights (Coke, Pepsi, etc) and a University starting and owning a music sharing business.

  6. Re:What a joke. on University Sponsored Music Services? · · Score: 1

    Actually it doesn't.

    I can understand if the RIAA donates products to Schools.
    I can understand if the RIAA allows music to be listened to in libraries and things as such.

    However, allowing a State Funded School to go into business for it's self by selling music is a HUGE conflict of interest for both parties.

    This is how Universities loose State and Federal funding for various programs.

  7. That's all well an good but it's not SMTP. on Reviving the Finger Protocol to Fight Spam? · · Score: 1

    SMTP, in it's True RFC sense does not have these features.

    Mail serverd do have these features.

    There's a HUGE difference between Mail servers and SMTP servers.

  8. What a joke. on University Sponsored Music Services? · · Score: 1

  9. Wrong! on The Perfect Formula For Box Office Success · · Score: 1

    First, movie makers need to check first for the following:

    1) Was the movie made in a non-US country so they can get credit for someone elses ideas?
    2) Are there any US -*-Fill in the Blank-*- (TV shows, Cartoons, comic books, books) left that haven't been made into a movie?
    3) Can ideas be ripped off from other mediums and spun into a new movie as a unique idea?

    Only after the above have been satisfied can originality begin in moviemaking.

  11. One other thing. What about the interview? on Klingon Interpreter Needed In Oregon · · Score: 1

    How is the county government going to know if the Klingon Speaker is legit? Who's going to test the potential candidate on how well they know Klingon.

  15. Where was this when... on MIT Creates Urine-Controlled Video Game · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...Beverly Hills 90210 was popular? MIT could have hit it big with this show still on the air.

  24. Audible.com has something similar to this. on Students Get iPods as Study Aids · · Score: 1
    They offer an MP3 Player with a certain subscription package.

    Audible.com has 4 different audio compression file types available with most of their downloads. Granted the smaller the file size the worse the sound quality.

    However, the sound quality is not really an issue seeing how you can fit 3 books at 2-3 hours per book, plus audio versions of the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal. In addition you can copy Windows Media and MP3 files onto this player as well.

    It's pretty slick if you like to listen to books, music, or the audio newspapers in your car.

    Check it out.

  25. Uh-oh on Day of Defeat Half-Life Mod Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Annoucnements like this are going to attract all the Counter-Strike hackers. The same thing happened when Game-Spy awarded Day of Defeat Mod of the year. 12-year old brat hackers with God complexes invaded DoD servers for a few weeks after the Game-Spy award.
