  1. Re:Random? on On Luck and Randomness In Games · · Score: 1

    Random? That isn't random. It comes right after you block off the slot you were saving for it.

    You mean like in this game?

  2. Konqueror FTW on Opera 9.5 To Fully Support CSS? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'm using Konqueror 3.5.7 on Kubuntu right now, and it passes completely. I don't know how long it's been able to pass, since I just found out about the test now. Firefox 2.0.0.4 fails pretty badly, but this version of Konqueror says that it passes all the tests. Yet Opera claims that it is the first browser to pass? Objection! At least one browser has passed before it, and that Opera version is not even out yet, it's in the weekly builds. This is the stable version of Konqueror

  3. Re:wireless has been a b*tch for me too on The Business Model of Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    The Dapper CD's have the ndiswrapper-utils package on them, but it's not installed by default. It's in pool/main on the CD, and you can just install it with dpkg and go from there.

  4. Both? on Sun Spearheads Open DRM · · Score: 1

    and is better to work on creating something done right, or to object to it on moral grounds?

    Well, since creating something done right would involve objecting to DRM...why not both?
  5. Re:What about ... on Top Ten Game Cliches · · Score: 1

    No, they're still around. In first person shooters, the only genre where you can't see your feet.

  6. Re:Oooh! Boobies!! on Interview with a Gnome artist, William Szilveszter · · Score: 1

    Hey, you're right! That "log out" icon does look vaguely like a breast!

  7. Re:hey.. is wine usable yet? on Jeremy White on WINE Installer Challenge · · Score: 1

    It's been a while since I've used it, but I remember that file lists with certain characters would just not load. I had to figure out which one of its numbered lists was the one I wanted, edit it to remove the offending character, and try again.

    Then again, downloading from multiple sources is always fun, which neither DC++ nor i2hub can do, as far as I know.

  8. Re:Version Numbers on Firefox 1.1 Scrapped · · Score: 2, Funny

    A Gentoo ricer, eh?

  9. Re:As if the N-Gage comment didn't throw me off... on The Handheld War · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yeah, it's definitely a joke. Everyone knows 360 is TWO orders of magnitude bigger than 3.

  10. Re:E-Pants? on Elive Beta: Enlightenment Sans Commitment · · Score: 3, Funny

    Thanks for the advice. I'll start working on that right away.

  11. Easy answer: on What Games Do Women Play? · · Score: 1

    What games do women play?

    Probably the same games they played in the other 5 articles this week on the same topic...

  12. Re:That explains it... on 11-Nation Raid on Net Pirates · · Score: 1

    Well, hopefully it's easier than Swedes trying to learn English.

  13. Re:What I'd suggest... on Copyright Law Protection for Employees? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, the same way a hitman can present written copies of his orders.

    Oh, wait.

  14. Re:Fortifications on Microsoft Genuine Advantage Cracked · · Score: 1

    Roger Cheswick has made a career for decades in explaining the problems with the castle-wall theory of computer defense. apparently he did so in vain, for there's always some clothpate who doesn't get the word.

    There's only one word in that sentence that I don't get, and it sure as hell doesn't involve security. Congratulations, you have invented a word that even Google cannot find.

  15. Re:hmm... on Gentoo Founder on his way to Redmond · · Score: 1

    But remember, that includes compiling KDE and GNOME. I don't think many Windows users want both.

  16. Re:Totally uncalled for on The Non-Game That Barks Like A Game · · Score: 1

    I dunno...what about DDR with the down button broken?

  17. I can't count on SAG, AFTRA Decline to Strike Games Industry · · Score: 1

    Fine, I'll be the third to say it. Whatever. Screw you all.

  18. Let me be the first to say: on SAG, AFTRA Decline to Strike Games Industry · · Score: 1

    W-w-w-what!? $695 an hour? That seems a bit high for pretty much any job, especially one where you're not subject to extreme amounts of overtime and rushing at the end of every project.

  19. Re:Good News... on Breathe Under Water Without Oxygen Tanks · · Score: 1

    You use that line instead of "I'll take lungs now, gills come in two weeks"? You should be ashamed. And you could have even thrown in "Z is just as good as X. In fact, it's 2 better."

  20. Re:So? on Laptops Outsell Desktops · · Score: 2, Funny

    And it has a battery life of one-half of ten minutes?

  21. Super Mario 64 on Gaming Glitches Add Character · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I remember seeing a video of someone beating Super Mario 64 with (I think) 16 stars, when you normally need 70, due to a whole series of glitches. Going through doors you shouldn't be able to go into, reaching the top of the endless stairs. To think, I wasted all that time trying to get on top of that damn snowman...

  22. Re:Hype is fun. on Smoke and Mirrors from Sony and Microsoft · · Score: 1

    You mean it made your liquid snake turn solid? Yeah, I saw the trailer, too. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't show any gameplay or anything about the actual game except for people involved. All I know is that suddenly, I have never wanted anything else in my life. And sadly, I'm not joking.

  23. Not what I see... on E3 2005 Booth Babe Hall of Shame · · Score: 4, Insightful

    From what I can tell, they're not even smiling on the outside. And I doubt their Guild Wars plans were very intense before swearing it off forever.

  24. Re:Hackensack? on Over Half a Million Bank Accounts Breached · · Score: 2, Funny

    That is WHACK!

  25. Re:Garrhh! on AdvantageSix Promises a Tiny ARM-based Computer · · Score: 1

    It gets 4 rods to the hogshead.
