  1. Re:Most of those "billions" of devices.. on Dept. of Defense IPv6 Interoperabilty Test Begins · · Score: 1

    Hey! I'm at a university with it's own allocation of IP addresses TYVM and I appreciate being able to host webpages etc. from my own, unique, IP. If I want to play MP games with anyone in another university, I always host becasue guess what? they use NAT!

  2. Re:dystopian, yada yada on Broadcast Flag All But Approved · · Score: 1

    Bravo! Hear hear! I could just walk down the hall and talk to real friends any time I wanted to. I don't need to take drugs or drink alcohol, I can just go and eat pudding instead! I would feel that a part of my life were missing if MSN messenger closed down forever; it may be my own stupid fault for becoming addicted to closed source software but I can't deny it brought me closer to the people I know.

  6. Hmm... on Benchmarking With Halo For PC · · Score: 1

    Halo runs fine on my p4 w/ Raedon 9000 at max resolution ONLY when I turn off all the optional effects like shading etc. with them all on, the game struggles at 800x600.

  7. Maga Man for the GB on History Of Mega Man Explored · · Score: 1

    When I bought my original gameboy in 1996ish it came with a choice of Mega Man 3 or Mario&Yoshi games free. Dunno what that has to do with anything but I feel compelled to post.

  8. Halo Phobia on Common PC Video Games Used To Treat Phobias · · Score: 1

    I can also cure my fear of ROOMS THAT ALL LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME thanks to Halo for the PC...

  9. Re:Windows ME experience.... on Top 10 Ways To Lose Your Data · · Score: 1

    I have it on good authority from a cousin of mine who suffers from both that WinME is worse than the actual disease ME.

  10. Re:Hopefully the start of another space race.... on Chinese Astronaut Makes It Back Safely · · Score: 1

    Those who died weren't heroes any more than the other, still living, shuttle crews are heroes. DOes dying in a horrible accident make you a hero? Does being mown down whilst crossing the road, or being shot by accident, make you a hero? No, it just makes you unlucky.

  11. Re:No applications being accepted by the ISS on China's Space Launch Near; Malaysia Wants One, Too · · Score: 1
