  1. Best story? on BioShock 3 Confirmed Despite Lack of BioShock 2 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think not. System Shock 2 had a better story and game.

  2. Condoms? on International Field Engineer Travel Tips? · · Score: 0

    Come on, this is /.! Do you expect him (assuming if it is a male and not gay) to get a woman and get laid? [grin]

  3. Not just patch, Linux server too. on Crysis Sequel Announced, Still PC Only · · Score: 1

    Linux server plan got axed too. :(

  4. Boring list. on June Gaming Sees Host of Releases · · Score: 1

    However, that's a good thing! I have many old games that I need to finish (a few to start!) and play online, but not enough free time (0-2 hours a week). Ugh!

  5. Speaking of online newsgroups. on The Greatest Defunct Websites and Dotcom Disasters · · Score: 1

    Has anyone noticed how crappy Google Groups is? Lots of missing posts due to technical problems. :( Google still hasn't fixed them since this problem is months old.

  6. Re:WarGames and Disillusionment on WarGames and the Great Hacking Scare of 1983 · · Score: 1

    Depressed? Wow.

  7. Also, second Wargames movie. :( on WarGames and the Great Hacking Scare of 1983 · · Score: 1

    Wargames: The Dead Code

    IMDb and the trailer can be seen on YouTube.

  8. Re:Netflix? on The One-Use, Self-Destructing DVD Returns · · Score: 1

    Netflix = Subscription. Staples = one time payment for the requested DVDs.

  9. Re:Cancel on Time Warner Cable Tries Metering Internet Use · · Score: 1

    Have fun. I actually have both since cable isn't reliable. :(

  10. Re:Cancel on Time Warner Cable Tries Metering Internet Use · · Score: 2, Informative

    Or back to dial-up (3 KB/sec at most for me with compressed files). I have no other affordable broadband options in my area. DSL is too far (20K ft. from CO). Forget satellite Internet services (slow, capped, and expensive). No local WISP services. IDSL/ISDN is too slow and expensive (100+ bucks a month??!?!) :(

    Would you like to pay for a T1 connection for me? I think not.

  11. Re:VOD? on Time Warner Cable Tries Metering Internet Use · · Score: 1

    Or back to dial-up (3 KB/sec at most for me with compressed files). I have no other affordable broadband options in my area. DSL is too far (20K ft. from CO). Forget satellite Internet services. No local WISP services. :(

  12. Re:Lynx on goosh, the Unofficial Google Shell · · Score: 1

    I prefer Elinks.

  13. Re:Nice frontend G`UI... on RedOffice 4.0 Beta Updates OpenOffice UI · · Score: 1

    I actually didn't use Office's autoformat. I do almost everything by hand.

  14. Nice frontend G`UI... on RedOffice 4.0 Beta Updates OpenOffice UI · · Score: 1

    ... However, the engine is still weak compared to Office 2007. Not even good as Office 2000's. OpenOffice v2 still has problems with simple table formattings in its Writer.

  15. Re:Heads up on An Imaginative Use For CCTVs · · Score: 1

    Ah, I had the same problem so I watched it on YouTube. :)

  16. Music Video on An Imaginative Use For CCTVs · · Score: 4, Informative

    Go to YouTube. :)

  17. My friend's brief review. on Consumer Reports Gets Its Game On · · Score: 1

    My friend did a short review about it. :)

  18. Fullscreen TV output? on The Future According To nVidia · · Score: 1

    For me, fullscreen TV output. There's none in 8xxx series and it's broken in older card drivers. See as an example.

  19. Re:A better link for full JPL/Phoenix coverage on Phoenix Mars Lander To Touch Down In 2 Hours · · Score: 1

    Question: Is there a HD feed on broadcast (over the air/OTA) or online?

  20. Start on 5/20/2008. on The Secret History of Star Wars · · Score: 1

    Start here for the story.

  21. Re:Boo hoo. poor little spoiled brat on Video Game Actors Say They Don't Get Their Due · · Score: 1

    Can we have your money then?

  22. Re:Print Version (and my Apple woes) on The Most Annoying Software Out There · · Score: 1

    Norton Removal Tool (NRT) only removes core parts/pieces (e.g., services, drivers) AFAIK. Do a normal uninstall, reboot, run NRT, and reboot.

  23. Re:ARGHSFARGH! on The Most Annoying Software Out There · · Score: 1

    Copy that network connection icon to your desktop. Then right click on it to disable/enable it when you want it. Very handy. I do the same for other things like my PCI HDTV tuner card (yes, it uses USB connection -- don't know why).

  24. MAC Address? on Age of Conan's "Kinda" Launch and Massive Pre-Orders · · Score: 1

    Why would play games on MAC addresses? [grin] Oh, you mean Mac. :P

  25. Re:My VCR Still Works on Microsoft Acknowledges NBC's Wish is Its Command · · Score: 1

    VCRs won't last forever and it's low quality. Don't forget Macrovision (had to get a RF Modulator for my DVD's playbacks through my PCs and video cards). :(
