    I've read every book from the Wheel of Time series. That's like 12,000 pages. What other books are you guys talking about? Did he do another 90 books outside of the Wheel of Time?

    The use of a gun is to kill someone. There is no other use for it. The gun isn't made to change the channel on a TV, or open up a can... it's made to HURT and KILL people. Same with ciagarettes.

    Whatever. I'm a Comcast subscriber on Windows XP SP1. Never had any problems.

    I'd say RTFA, because I'm assuming it's explained in there, but I didn't read it either.

    They say, "Pay me or your site goes down." If they do, they come back a week later saying, "Pay me more or your site goes down." When they eventually don't pay, the site comes a-tumbling down.

  8. Re: What? on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    That's right. All those who attack the other side without any respect for their position are assholes. They both deserve to be slapped around. That doesn't mean that the religious are right or the non-religious are right, it just means that you need to treat your fellow man with respect.

    I don't talk about my beliefs much, but I mentioned in passing to one of my friends something about God and he get extremely hostile towards me because I believe in Him. He was just an asshole about it, and it didn't matter whether he was right or wrong, he still shouldn't have don eit.

  9. Re:Um... on Natural Selection Mod to get Sequel, Source port · · Score: 1

    Actually, the story is factually wrong. They are checking out the tech and the SDK of Source and seeing whether they want to put NS on Source. Their website's latest news post says Charlie is THINKING about porting to Source. It's not a definite.

    Where exactly did the submitter get this info? I've heard nothing and I've been an NS player and follower since Day 1.

  12. Re:Convo with CrazyJoe on UO Players Donate Virtual Gold for Tsunami Victims · · Score: 1

    So he's used 4 gigs of 192, as of yesterday. Let's give 'em the ol' Slashdot one-two and take the site down!

  13. Convo with CrazyJoe on UO Players Donate Virtual Gold for Tsunami Victims · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Nihir Nighthawk: Great thing you're doing with the gold donations. If my UO account were still open, I'd give you what I have.
    CarnivorousJoe: thanks for the kind words!
    CarnivorousJoe: http://games.slashdot.org/
    Nihir Nighthawk: Yep, that's where I heard about you.
    CarnivorousJoe: my host may go down soon, so say hi to it now!
    Nihir Nighthawk: It's responding fine to me, but you did make the front page, so we'll see how long it takes to fry :-P
    CarnivorousJoe: haha
    CarnivorousJoe: i warned my host
    Nihir Nighthawk: they respond?
    CarnivorousJoe: not yet. may call
    Nihir Nighthawk: Maybe your host is more resilient than you think, it's still responding fine. By now, the server should be on fire.
    CarnivorousJoe: ya they are awesome
    CarnivorousJoe: but i like to cover the bases
    Nihir Nighthawk: How much have you received so far? I didn't see it listed anywhere
    CarnivorousJoe: http://www.crazyjoe.us
    CarnivorousJoe: and go click on "Status"

    He's gotten over 310 million gold, which amounts to a few thousand $USD. Assuming all of it sells, he'll have donated at least $5,000 to the Red Cross.

  14. Re:Parent's a troll. on Grokking Knoppix · · Score: 1

    With Knoppix? I didn't think I had to do either.

    What I plan on doing, anyways, is buying a small second HDD (20-30 gigs) for Linux.

  15. Parent's a troll. on Grokking Knoppix · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Insightful? What a joke.

    I've never used Linux. After my old desktop stopped functioning (due to RPCSS crashing on startup), I decided that I might switch it over to Linux. It's an NTFS partition and my friend, a Linux zealot, told me that Linux can only read from NTFS, not write. I didn't want to back any of my stuff up or lose any of it, but I had remembered seeing him use Knoppix at school before, so I asked him about it. He didn't have too much info on it, so I checked out the site.

    The Knoppix website taught me nothing. The English site's wiki was down when I wanted to learn about it. Had I had this book then, I probably would be using Knoppix right now.

    By the way, you're wrong on both counts, troll. I know squat about Linux and I started learning to program by reading VB6, Perl and C++ for Dummies.

    But movies from www.emx.com only play in WMP, because they use it's DRM :-\

    However, WMP kept stealing file extensions after I set them from foobar's associations program. I finally had to go into the file properties and set them to open in foobar and it stopped stealing them.

    How in the hell is this modded informative? I mean, come on.

    Besides, trojan condoms are extremely ironic. The trojan horse was something that let men get into an enemy town and then break open and hundreds of men rushed out from it.
