    a follow by 13 u's :D haha

  2. Re:LiveJournal on LiveJournal Buyout Rumor · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    It wasn't supposed to be insightful, just my opinion. I don't enjoy reading them, I don't like them

    Okay Anonymous Coward. I'll put them away. The school disabled server side scripts apparently, probably because of a new security bug.

  5. LiveJournal on LiveJournal Buyout Rumor · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    I don't like LiveJournals.

  6. Re:LOL, "familiarize new users" on Grokking Knoppix · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You should assume, when posting to a public forum, things are read the way they are written. If you didn't mean to call the book shit, then call it something else. That simple.

  7. Re:LOL, "familiarize new users" on Grokking Knoppix · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Why would you call this material 'shit'? That's a very closed minded attitude. That says a lot about someone who would narrow down the use of anything to the realm of only TWO possibilities.

  8. Flash on One Year on Mars · · Score: 1, Informative

    I liked the flash presentation. Informative and interactive without being a full blown technology show-off.

  9. Re:video lan client (vlc) on Free Windows Software Without Spyware/Adware · · Score: 1

    Can't believe nobody else added this to the list
    VLC is by far, the best media player I've ever encountered. I even use it to stream external hardware video, like from my XBox, to play console games and dvds on the same monitor.

    Its usefulness is so invaluable, gosh, I'm in love

  10. Irony on Sims 2: University Announced · · Score: 1

    The ultimate irony: Students failing out of college because they spend too much time playing The Sims.

    Sad thing is, I'm so lazy, I'd rather attend classes and do projects in The Sims rather than travel across campus!

  11. Re:Don't like it on Official Valve Half-Life 2 Case Mod · · Score: 1

    Well after defeating the game in less than a day, I feel like this thread deserves a bit more attention. The metal sides, the grate-like fins, they were made in light of the game's design. Only after playing the game should we judge this case. My mistake last post was that I didn't realize - The reason why the first case reminded me of HL1 so much was because I had already played the game!

  12. Re:Nova Episode on Humans in America 25,000 Years Ago? · · Score: 1

    Solutrean, thank you for refreshing my memory. Yeah... I find it disturbing that I've never heard of this culture. I never even knew there were cave paintings and signs of pre-historic life in France and England. Sounds like really interesting stuff I'll have to research some time. Kind of exciting, huh

  13. Nova Episode on Humans in America 25,000 Years Ago? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I just saw this on an episode of Nova. (Its what I watch at 5am in the morning)

    They also linked the stones to European tool-making, and believe they may have used boats to travel to North America. Yeah, so maybe its a stretch, but still a possibility.

    The evidence was really believable, but its was ONLY based on the tools. The artwork and other survival methods did not make the trip, so who knows.

    Very interesting special episode though, and being half Native American, I'd like to think there's at least some cultural link between my parents

  14. Don't like it on Official Valve Half-Life 2 Case Mod · · Score: 1

    Well, I mean its great. It looks awesome, but nothing about it really screams HL2 to me...
    The first one really reminded me of the BlackMesa facility, this one looks like.. a steam ship. I think that might be because he based the design on screen shots, rather than the game play. I couldn't have done better, and I have no ideas of my own, but I was still expecting more for the OFFICIAL HL2 computer.

    Its an excellent case mod though, I really do love the design itself.

  15. Re:Mistakes on WPI, too on America's Most Connected Campuses · · Score: 1

    Agreed. You can even look at the connected list from 2003! WPI is 22nd, and some of the answers are YES compared to this year where they are NO. Research seems shady... Not that I have anything against RPI....

    "giving away money effectively is almost as hard as earning it the first place."
    -Bill Gates

    Great quote, interesting article, not sure if I agree with it entirely, but the quote gives a cool perspective.

    By the way the Bill & Melinda Society (or whatever) do a lot for charities, students, colleges, and NPO's.

    They can write BSOD in big white letters on the top of it.

  20. Microsoft owns rights to XML? on Microsoft Releases 'Caller-ID For Email' Specs · · Score: 1

    Wasn't there an article on /. about how Microsoft owned the copyrights on XML (which seems bizarre to me).

    Has anyone else mentioned this? (too lazy to surf forums)
