  1. Re:wtf on Probe Crash Due to Misdesigned Deceleration Sensor · · Score: 1
    The sensors, which are estimated to be less than an inch (2.5 centimetres) wide, were apparently installed in a circuit board in the wrong orientation - rotated 180 from the correct direction. But the problem stemmed not from the installation but the design, by Lockheed Martin, based in Bethesda, Maryland.

    Crappy article really first they said there where installed incorrectly then they said no the where designed backwards

    Yah if I didn't really want to try Galaxies that Gamespot downloader would have made me quit.

    First the good. You could download the game and play for free to see if you liked it. This is a very, very good thing. That the Star Wars Galaxies & others don't do this says a lot.

    Actually you can download a 14 day free trial of Galaxies which I did and its pretty cool

    That is because it is a V-2. The engine has a few mods to it but basically its a V-2 rocket engine.

    Every freaking DAY, I have to look at exactly that. I really hate it. I have also read quite a few posts that also mention the same problem.

  8. Re:Does Jobs' have a successor? on Steve Jobs Undergoes Cancer Surgery · · Score: 1
    Steve Jobs is not one of those CEOs that people resent for pulling down zillions of dollars

    Actually Steve only gets paid a $1 salary. There is the crap load of stock though.

    Actually this is closer to an Outer limits episode that pre dates the Matrix by many years

    the problem i have is that the side bar overlaps the main content all the time. so the background for sections will behind some of the text for the main content. its really annoying.

    How does this have anything to do with Apple ?. I thought this was Slashdot news from Apple.

  13. Re:The State of the Game on Star Wars Galaxies Users Restless Over Rebalancing · · Score: 1
    Now it's all about getting buffed by a master doctor for 3 hours and soloing (whether for credits or xp)

    This is exactly the reason why I have yet to play a mmorpg. As with any rpg its great for awhile players actually know what the "R" in in rpg stands for and really play there characters.

    Then it turns into munchkin land, all role playing is thrown out the window, everybody is god like because there is this or that exploit where you level up or become super strong if two hours. And then the game is all about how much xp/money your character has and not about role playing.

    I don't really thing macs are over priced. I've been doing alot of shopping around lately for a notebook and if you try to get all the features that a mac has it they come out to about the same price.
    A mac just has higher end components than anything else.

    And when you post that same address is posted along with your messages; you have no option even to obfuscate it.

    Something interesting to note. I mosted a message yesteryday with google groups. My email address shows normally however when I went to groups 2 to look up the same message. The email address was obfuscated with underscores. Click on show options to view the email address

    I agree though that VB is the best RAD language i've seen

    Have you used VB! Sure you can create an app with few textboxes and a couple of button quickly. But if it actually has do something it quickly becomes bloated and you our showing and hiding forms and knee deep into win32 api calls and ... gah! the horror!

    Sorry VB flashbacks.
