Ok, you had me for a minute. I really thought that your link was gonna take me to the "It" from that South Park episode where Mr. Garrison had invented his alternative, self-powered alternative vehicle. Props for posting the unicycle link!
I have almost beaten this game on the PC, and I must say that I truly love it. It's creepy, weird and under the ocean, so I've gotta give 2K some props for the concept. Those Big Daddies are horrifying tankers, loved'em to bits!
The thing that I find most odd about this game is the text during loading screens. they were supposed to be quotes of various citizens talking about how things of gone down the tubes. I know that they were trying to capture some old-style slangy ways of talkin' , but damn the quoted text was so riddled with bad English that it sort of undermined the whole creepy feel of the game. I didn't let it get to me, but wow, it sure feels nice to share that with ya'll;) Please reply if you felt the same way about those quotes. Great game IMHO!
I would totally make about 10 copies of the same dog and give them all the same name. This would be incredibly funny on a walk in the park. My dog's name is Legion;)=
If it weren't for that man, our collective appeal to the tech industry may not have been what it is. The dream of new possibilities and the hopes that they might fulfill were enough influence on me as a child to "stay with it". Not that daydreaming is key, but wow, just imagine what some of us might have done otherwise. Little bits of positive & visionary influence have always been enough to keep me going in a good direction:) I hope his family members find peace. Keep you dreams alive!
So now I guess we'll be seeing on of those Energizer commercials showing that rabbit strolling by a pile of dead, dust covered rovers, playing that drum.
Has anyone considered that everyone and their fricken mom has seen the Matrix several times. That was a long time ago. Pirates of the C. are a whole new set of movies. Plus, its Reeves vs Depp, ha!
You mean, all this time, while I was starring down at my work with my head buried, I should have been starring off into space? Sounds like someone stopped whatever serious work or research they were doing to stare off into space and ended up wasting time on this idea, instead;)
I think that this is a great idea, but I've got one thing to say. They sure as hell better keep out any genetically modified seeds.
If humanity has to start all over again, let's give future generations nature's original lineage. Why make them start off on the wrong(man-made) foot? Maybe I'm being over-critical, but we are obviously doing many things wrong with and to earth and its lineage.
They will force you to use some CMC or other low quality DVD-R's that won't last more than a week or two. Ha! But seriously, do you know about why Phillips made the device that let's you rip your vinyl records? This was years back. The machine would only accept Phillip's own Pre-Formatted Audio discs. It was about royalties. So in theory, they could supply(force you to use) their own specially formatted, shitty media. What a formula! On the other hand, you could hack your drive's firmware, and enable the ability to write those terrible sectors. Ooh, I see some corn discs. Gotta run.
If you've ever watched Mr. Show (HBO), then you may remember the skit about blowing up the moon. Scientists trained a monkey to do the job, but then, using sign language, it asked "Why blow up the moon?" Thankfully, they fired that monkey and hired a circus monkey to do it. No questions asked. Hooray for the USA!
This may sound off beat, but for the sake of argument, wouldn't their actions inside my computer be considered "Breaking and Entering"? If they owned a doorknob company, they would have no right to break into my house to confirm a receipt to the doorknob that I installed. Yes, anyone can walk by the outside of the door and notice the vista brand on the doorknob, much like web pages resolve browser types when users connect to a site. So when the MS team break into your house and fails to find that your receipts are in the attic, even though you've paid, expect them to change your locks, leave no new key, and cheese it! I'm boycotting Vista.

At first glance, all I saw was "Indiana Jones Nuclear Market" ;)

Oh well, it looks like someone will just have to break down and simply create a myspace group for gamers ;)
Kramer!!! Just imagine, you need help printing a document, and all of the sudden, Kramer pops up and takes a bowl of your serial ;)
I totally thought this was about some greenhorn politicians ;) Ok, I think I feel my karma dropping already.
It was just too dang hot for them to see it coming.

and Good Luck. A movie that all Americans should see.

I know this is so far out, but how about FOOD for HUNGRY PEOPLE. 3 words Duke Nukem Forever;)
BOOSH! need i say more
I just read: Flesh Based Laptop;) Wanna know how I misread Asus? Ha, thought so.
She may just be Kuppa's mother;)
Somewhere between Pike and Pine lies the Seattle Convention Center.

I can't help but to imagine robots that breathe for some reason.

Does anyone remember that really fun show, Clone High??? One of the teachers was half sheep. Great show!

There is an ext3 file system driver for windows. I don't own a Mac, but there's gotta be one for them, too. Has anyone tried this?
