  1. Re:Copyrights on RISK on Google Maps Shut Down · · Score: 1

    not at all.

    the best way to do it would be to9 have a person who has not read the rules observe the game being played by experienced players untill they had documented all of the important game mechanics then have another person who has not read the rules take that documentation and write out easily followed rules based on them, much like software and interface cloning is done.

  2. use openGL on Web Interfaces for C++ Introspection? · · Score: 1

    if you are doing openGL stuff how about throwing in an interactive debug mode. I am pretty sure openGL can sned lines of text in and out just have the app load a translucent console window when launched with --debug

    CN tower only a few stories tall, not even a tower really they just put a little round building on a big stick.

    I think you are confused, rotation on a chair actually creates an infinitesmal decrease in the rotational rate of earth.

  5. Re:Are you sure about that? on Reflections On The Revolution · · Score: 1

    if it is optical positioning it probably works more like an optical mouse without the laser, looking at the room and using that image to detect motion and rotation

  6. Re:A Related Site on Rock Face of Kilauea Volcano Collapses · · Score: 2, Interesting

    judging from the massive amounts of steam generated when lava reaches water and the fact that the human body is ~80% water i would think death and near total brain destruction would occur faster than your brain could even process the pain of "OMFG I AM IN LAVA"


    then again if it was shallow and/or barely liquid it could be an excruciating few seconds as boiling flesh creates a steam barrier slowing the burning.

    actually you can add the entire package to an existing ubuntu install, as a previous poster pointed out

  9. Re:What Myspace shows on The MySpace Generation · · Score: 1

    i think it was more to keep control of users, back then computer resources were much more expensive so making sure everyone's page was on [one of a few strings]/[one of a few strings]/[integer]/ made it easier to filter potentially malicious requests and probably also was realted to which server cluster the site would be stored on.

    could probably get aorund this by appending, in memory, the external applet as an ascii encoded HTML tag of some sort, then it would no longer be an external script

  11. Re:But they reserve the right... on The MySpace Generation · · Score: 2, Informative

    that's stupid. it would take about 5 minutes or less for the judge to throw out the claims of exclusive license from the amended terms. also you cannot transfer copyright without a WRITTEN AGREEMENT.

    i think it would be easier and more effective/possible to take the IP list out of PG and configure the router to block that rather than trying to make PG act as router software

    doyou regularly use thermonuclear weapons to kill flies? configuring a firewll to prevent anything but very specific messages, ack, retransmit requests etc. would be much more sane and would allow you to have a consistant database
