    Fair enough.

    Props to H.G. Wells, too, of course.

    Make sure it has a good number of phaser arrays and photon torpedo banks.

    I was kidding, mate. I love chess, somewhat constrained to 2D though it may be.

    Capes are dangerous. Just ask Syndrome.

    I prefer to play tridimensional chess.

  7. Re: GMail on Gmail Adds POP3 To Email Accounts · · Score: 1, Funny

    Come on, guys, it's time to take a hard look at the situation and realize the truth - email is on its way out. Signal fires are the next big thing. I envision a great wall running the length of the US northern border, providing both line-of-sight for these fires, and protection against the Canadian menace. Can Gmail do that, even with POP access? I don't think so.

    So it can survive being dropped? That's a neat feature.

    My provider is soon to disable my site until 12:01 AM tomorrow (Friday) morning due to my exceeding bandwidth restrictions. I've torrented the files, but if my site is suspended, there goes my tracker. I've mirrored the files themselves here. This is where I'll post updates.

    Likewise: theanonymousbrit.com/starwars has small and medium sized versions from AOL.

    Here

    Both the small and medium sizes, as seen on AOL, are available for as long as my bandwidth holds.

  13. File Mirror on AirPort Software Updated to v3.4 · · Score: 4, Informative
    Unfortunately, I didn't keep the original .dmg file, which included (if I recall correctly) a readme file. As there was no specialized installer for the two programs, though (just the ol' drag-and-drop method), I've .dmged the tools again and stuck them up on my site. They are available here. I still want to know why they pulled them in the first place, but oh well, enjoy!

    Goodbye, sweet bandwidth, and flocks of /.ers speed thee to thy doom.

  14. Another Report on AirPort Software Updated to v3.4 · · Score: 3, Informative

    I have a PowerBook G4 and an Airport Extreme base station w/ a Dr. Bott Direct Antenna. Before I installed the update I was getting 3-4 bars of signal just one room away from it. Post-update, I'm getting one to two bars, if I'm lucky (though I've yet to totally lose network connectivity). I haven't tried the tutorial to uninstall the offending software (again, available here), though it looks like it would do the trick. Hopefully Apple will remedy the problem before I'm forced to take such drastic measures, since it's obviously quite a widespread issue.

  15. Re: Project also available here on PlayFair Pulled Due to DMCA Request · · Score: 1

    The latest version of playfair (0.4) is also available on freshmeat.net (though this is odd, in my opinion, given that it was originally removed from sourceforge, and both belong to the OSDN. Meh).

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/playfair/

    Politics aside, it's interesting to watch the code progress (and hop around the internet).
