  5. Re:One of the things I find annoying... on Masters of Doom · · Score: 1

    Spear of Destiny was the sequel to Wolfenstein 3d.

    Off topic, I find it interesting that id software only has 3 games. Wolfenstein, Doom, and Quake. Lets take a look at id's releases in the past:

    Wolfenstein 3d - New Engine
    Spear of Destiny - Based on the Wolf3d Engine
    Doom - New Engine
    Doom 2 - Based on Doom Engine
    Quake - New Engine
    Quake 2 - Based on Quake Engine
    Quake 3 - New Engine
    Return to Castle Wolfenstein - Based on Quake3 Engine
    Doom 3 - New Engine

    Then what do we get next?

    Quake 4 - Based on Doom 3 Engine, of course.

    Looks like they broke the style with Quake3 when they should have been making Wolf 3. Oh well. My predictions for 2005:

    Wolf3d 4: Return to Castle Wolfenstein Again.

  6. Re:One of the things I find annoying... on Masters of Doom · · Score: 1

    Your right, it was something like that. Why do I have the word shadow in my head right now? Hmmm. This is one of those times you wish Jeeves actually could answer any question.

    Anyway, I actually played it, and it was interesting to say the least. The monstors were pretty cool, and there was a fog effect in the game. I think I had the shareware.

  7. fiscal year on Windows XP SP2 Delayed Until Late 2004 · · Score: 1

    A yearly accounting period that does not start or finish with the calendar year. For the federal government, the fiscal year begins October 1 and ends on September 30. The fiscal year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends -- for example, a fiscal year that ends on September 30, 1997 is called fiscal year 1997. Congress passes its budgets in the calendar year that a fiscal year starts. For example, the budget for fiscal year 1997 is passed in 1996. Note: the dates for the fiscal year changed in 1977. Previously, they had been from July 1 to June 30. In 1977, a "transition quarter" was added to move back the start of the fiscal year; this can be seen in government budget statistics under the designation "TQ."

    There is nothing more annoying than hearing someone try to use this "walkie-talkie" function in public. I sure hope SprintPCS never gets this.

  14. My computer read me your post on Computer Expectations of Today, and a Decade Hence? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Funny though, I didnt read your post, I coppied it into the clip board and had a spiffy little proggie read it to me. Sure, the voice sucks, but I'm lazy and tired of reading every /. post. I can breeze through articles this way.

    I only wish I could capture the days slashdot articles and top 10 +5 comments to mp3 and take them with me jogging.

    PLEASE point me to a source forge project that does this!

    Oh yeah, and I hate CAPS because my TTS reads each letter instead of the word. At least I can program it to read "/." as "slashdot" instead of just "slash"

    Gates goes on to state that Microsoft is looking at charging for some of its software updates that it now distributes for free.

  25. Re:It's not about cost or utility here -- on Your Own Linux Wireless Access Point · · Score: 2, Funny

    I totally agree. Linux is great for those fun projects like networked toasters, or MP3 serving coffee tables.

    Now if I could only get a VIA EPIA and 6" Touch LCD for the same price* as linux I'd be set.
