What FPS have you played that didn't involve primarily going from room to room and shooting things? Half-Life, the previous holder of the "best single player FPS" crown was exactly the same. Walk, shoot, repeat. It's all about presentation, which both games have done very well at.
Exactly. If you're not into FPS, there are other games. The Active Duty Army Capt. who lives downstairs from me loves Half-Life and DOOM3. Go figure.
Doom 3 seems much more a single player game and well appreciated for it.
Multi-player has it's place, but Doom has for the most part always been a First Person SHooter in the pure sense, AND, I think it's loseing it's focus/direction/attraction by going multi-multi player. Two, three man teams, maybe even TWO two or three man teams. That's it.
Let's see, in 2 weeks the've anounced that they were looking a buying Novell and getting rid of circuit boards. I guess a positronic brain will be next.
They are getting out of hardware, buying a software house. What's next is getting rid of all the engineers (everything can be "outsourced"), and hiring a bunch of IP lawyers. We've seen this scenario, right?
It's just so funny to read people's comments here that as for Mozilla, "Security through obscurity" is better than nothing, yet down the line, hear them rake MS over the coals for the same thing.
What is a shame is that an organization that is purportedly pro-OSS (they are the owners of Groklaw.net) is pushing the idea that there is an unacceptable level of liability in using Linux, for the purpose of selling their insurance product (which is of negligible value due to the extremely small coverage amounts). It's FUD, and surprisingly it's coming from "our side". PHB THINK: If a large enterprise is considering Windows vs. Linux, but wait! Linux requires user insurance because of its questionable pedigree, and Windows does not, the choice is obvious. Lot's of people have suggested that SCO and the various M$ toadies are trying to deep-six Linux. I think ORSM is doing quite well at this also.
It's too bad the coolest tech is immediately subverted for evil. The possible applications listed include 'surveillance cameras that spot suspicious behavior.'
This is not a troll (disclaimer??). What else can this be used for? I can see possibilities for blind people once technology is at a point where it can more closely interface with the brain, but other than that, what else is there except Big Brother? Oh, sorry, robots!
Exactly. Remember, DMCA is *bad* here at/., unless it's used against an enemy, in which case it's *good*!
This is part of Real's attempt to fught death that will come about from having a crappy product. I can't understand why anyone still uses Real at all, I think it's a lot like Internet Exploader, people use the Real Adware / Spyware because it comes by deafult with the MS desktop.
Slashdot Mirror
Christ. The truth is, Slashdot is basically a Gamer site. It's quite abnormal to see a real computer story here.
And yes, you are full of bull shit. Just because you don't like his lic. does not mean that it's not distributable and such. Get a life.
qmailrocks.org. They seem to be distributing qmail...

???? Bullshit. It is not GPL'd, it has a BSD lic. But it's source is freely avail. And it is FREE.
May I suggest that you first upgrade your hardware from the that old mini or mainframe to a 286 or 486?
qmail is a very nice, very secure MTA. But "He swears his mind is not made up already!" so what's the point?

very small tubes and EMP shielding...
And in other news, scientists are developing a computer with no electronic parts at all!
Maybe when Daum Communications Corp buys out "OSTG"??? Oh my!
The product placement is getting a bit obvious here...
Imagine the outsourcing possibilities...

Here at /.? No!
That's odd, "a quick google" produced about 43,000 hits for me.

I've decided to open my mini-fridge at work to science. There, you will find many things.
Nope, got this disk fro M$ themselves for doing a "usability study". Came in a shrink wrapped box out of a locked room at Red West.
OSDN uses doubleclick.
But of course back in 1972 around the time it was first developed, things where different, eh?
Every time I do a clean install of WinXP, there it is in the sys tray...
