  1. Re:ESPN 360... on ESPN Mobile Reaches The End Of The Road · · Score: 1

    Oh and I wished ESPN 360 would show games not aired on local broadcast stations like home Lakers games (not on ABC).

  2. ESPN 360... on ESPN Mobile Reaches The End Of The Road · · Score: 1

    Does anyone have ESPN360 and use this product often/frequently? I used it before but was expecting some live games. I remember during World Cup, there was one game live but it was a small game.

  3. 24 and Alias on KDE on the NBC Show "Heroes" · · Score: 2, Informative

    Examples of shows I watched: 24 with Pine v4.44 and Alias with an old version of KDE.

  4. It's NOT! 10/10/2006! on Microsoft Patches VML Vulnerability · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Its support will expire on October 10, 2006 according to Automatic Updates service. Also, see this Microsoft Web page. It's soon, but not over yet.

  5. Mirror! on Optimus Mini Three OLED keyboard reviewed · · Score: 1

    Yay for NetworkMirror.

  6. I actually don't mind the shorter hours. on The Myth of the 40 Hour Game · · Score: 1

    I actually don't mind the shorter time to finish a game because of my lack of free time. However, I do want the games to be cheaper and have replayability (e.g., multiplayer, randomization, mod support, etc.).

  9. Re:or you can play True Combat Elite and not worry on Counter-Strike Opens Weapons Market · · Score: 1

    Are there a lot of people playing this mod? About a year ago, when I checked. Not many people played this and it was hard to find Internet servers. :(

  10. Shared/Core components! Configurations/logs. on Microsoft Vista User Interface Guidelines Published · · Score: 1

    I also hate programs that must install in Windows system drive like DLL files, core files, shared files, etc.

    Log and configuration files as well. They should be in the installation directory/folder.

    Some programs don't ask me if I want a desktop shortcut, Start Menu shortcut, QuickLaunch, etc.

    Some programs hate to have their stuff in Start Menu, QuickLaunch, etc. to be moved/renamed/deleted. So, they repair it. Argh!

  11. Should make MMOG, BF2, etc. on First Gaming Fitness Arcade Opens in CA · · Score: 1

    They should makes MMOGs, Battlefield 2, etc. physical too. ;)

  12. Same here. on Census Bureau Loses Hundreds of Laptops · · Score: 1

    I was going to mention it, but I would think someone already said it. :P

  13. YES! on Census Bureau Loses Hundreds of Laptops · · Score: 1

    I also read that way too. Just need 200 more laptops. :)

  14. Re:I am a gamer with physical disabliites. on Older Gamers, More Accessible Game Features? · · Score: 1

    Eh?

  15. Re:I am a gamer with physical disabliites. on Older Gamers, More Accessible Game Features? · · Score: 1

    Interesting. It's a bit big and not sure if I have room for it. I will check it out if I need it. I rarely use my joystick and I don't own any consoles right now. :)

  16. I am a gamer with physical disabliites. on Older Gamers, More Accessible Game Features? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I enjoyed this article because it relates to me. There's a reason why I don't own a gaming console. I haven't owned one since Atari 2600. Due to my four fingers on my hands, lack of thumbs, and inablility to hold game controllers in mid air, I cannot use those console controllers very well. I have to use them on tables to hold them. This is why I do better on computer games because of keyboards, mice (small light ones like those old two/three button ones), and simple small joysticks (think of those old one/two buttons one like those old school Atari 2600 joysticks). I currently have a Microsoft Sidewinder joystick, but they have too many buttons and too big for my hands, so I don't do well when flying (I avoid flying in Battlefield games ;)). :(

    I also have speech and hearing impediments, so I don't use Teamspeak or any voice communications. I tried it once in Day of Defeat (original version) and obviously, no one knew I was saying (even my friends whom I talked to!). Hearing is another problem since I don't hear well with my analog bone conduction hearing aid (mono -- one microphone and can't determine audio directions). I love games that use closed caption/CC and suititles like in Half-Life 2 games (only use the dialog ones) and F.E.A.R..

  17. That's nothing compared to this one. on How a Wiring Rack Should Look · · Score: 4, Informative

    Check out this crazy yellow one. And it's yellow! :)

  18. Re:OpenDNS doesn't work for everyone on Earthlink Offers Alternate DNS Without "Dead DNS" · · Score: 1

    What else is a disadvantage when using OpenDNS? I haven't noticed anything odd when using it for the past two(?) weeks.

  19. Re:Nope. on Satellite Internet for Gaming? · · Score: 1

    Yep, I recently heard they have newer satellites but they don't help solve the issue much. :(

  20. Nope. on Satellite Internet for Gaming? · · Score: 2, Informative

    From what I read, satellite Internet services haven't improved in terms of latency. WISP should be decent if you can get that.

  21. Trailer on Star Trek - Special Edition · · Score: 2, Informative

    Here is the trailer (QuickTime and Windows Media formats) for the remastered version.

  22. No HDTV broadcast, schedule, and afflicate lists. on Star Trek - Special Edition · · Score: 1

    Star Trek has a list of schedule of episodes and local affliates showing this remastered series. Also, note that there seems to be NO HDTV broadcast due to the hardwares not being ready as reported in my newsgroup thread.

  23. Same here. on Measuring the Energy You Use? · · Score: 1

    My room can go up to 90F degrees in the hot days. Central unit doesn't work. I heard having those mini-AC for the room works. However, I have no room for it and I am worried about its power usage for the room (can cause power breakages?).

  24. Kari, not Keri. on The Mismatched 'MythBusters' · · Score: 4, Informative

    Her name is spelled Kari. :)

  25. Linux and MacOS X? on The Drawbacks of Anonymous Surfing · · Score: 1

    Are there any Linux and MacOS X 10.2.8 ports or similiar Web browsers? I just tried this in Windows XP Pro. SP2. It's nice.
