  1. From the archives of Interplay on Interplay Forced to Liquidate (France) · · Score: 3, Informative

    I'm not sure how wide the popular appeal of the game was, but an Interplay game I found realy cool was the Star Trek: 25th Anniversary game.

    It was a puzzle game that wasn't the most slick game of all time, but it featured much of the original cast as voice actors which gave the game an incredible appeal. Does anyone else have an sleeper Interplay games that they thought was pretty decent?

  2. Re:Score one for the good guys on RIAA Loses DMCA Subpoena Case Against Charter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I am totally on board with your enthusiasm for privacy, but companies like Verizon recognize that the turning over of that information would have a huge negative impact on their public image, and with communications companies duking it our for any number of markets (wireless, broadband, cable, phone, ultra secret death rays) they can make a play for undecided customers by saying they will protect them from the big bad man.

    It ain't the rights they care about, it's your cash.

  3. Power On, Pollution Off? on Blackout Was Good News, For Pollution · · Score: 1

    Coming from Buffalo, N.Y., we here are taking most of our power from the Robert Moses Power Plant in Niagara Falls, which runs off of the current of the Niagara River, one of the fastest sustained currents in the world.

    The power actually remained on in my suburb, although small parts of Buffalo did lose power. So that gigantic, collective "Ha! Ha!" you heard last August was Buffalo laughing at New York City.

    Hydroelectric power, especially in the northeast where there is an abundance of water, should be tapped more often in my opinion. I'm not a specialist on power though, so I wouldn't know the drawbacks if there were to be any (and there usually are).
