  1. Re:Um... no. on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 1, Interesting

    It's not so much the fact that it's not a great series, it's the fact that they'll be without star trek. It's like an addiction for many. (I'm addicted to the new Battlestar Galactica myself.)
    To be fair, however, EVERY one of the trek series aside from TOS have had a pretty lame first three seasons, so many people are simply afraid that they are giving up on enterprise just a little too early.
    Besides, maybe scifi fans have just gotten cocky since SaveFarscape squeezed a miniseries out of the whole shebang.

  2. Re:Did this happen... on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 3, Informative

    TNG, DS9 and VOY weren't cancelled, their series was ended. That's like saying "Seinfield" was cancelled. It was simply time to move on. Only TOS got cancelled.

  3. Re:Well on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 0

    Paramount has been spending about 80 million a season so far, and that's the estimated amount that they need... they've pretty much admitted that they won't get 80 million, but they're giving it all they've got nonetheless.

  4. Re:Nothing can go wrong... on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 0

    There's an abundance of boner jokes going around this morning. Is this Slashdot's version of "morning wood?"

  5. 5 Seasons does not a trek series make on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Even on the long shot that they DO manage to squeeze another season out of paramount, I doubt that they'll be able to juice it for a full 7-season run like every other trek series (save the original series)

  6. Que es? on Videogames on Library Shelves · · Score: 0

    What's a "Library"? Does Google now have a physical location or something?

  7. Is this really a good idea? on Students Help Design Game Curriculum · · Score: 0

    The notion of students creating programs that determine optimal bong measurements immediately comes to mind...

  8. Knoppix jumped the gun... on Linux Kernel 2.6.11 Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    Looks like Knoppix jumped the gun by including the 2.6 kernel in the new distro. If they had just waited a few hours...

  9. Re:Dual Core Gaming on Intel's Dual-core strategy, 75% by end 2006 · · Score: 0

    I was thinking on the other end of the spectrum - instead of putting the cell in PC's, putting the Intel chips in other consoles (IE, xbox2, etc)

  10. Dual Core Gaming on Intel's Dual-core strategy, 75% by end 2006 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    One has to wonder if this is going to provide Intel with a competitive edge against Sony's Cell processor in the gaming front...

  11. I just saw a story about a story about a story ... on Congress to Investigate ChoicePoint · · Score: 0

    This form of hearsay shouldn't be allowed on slashdot. It's only going to [eventually] lead to false reporting and scandal. I thought we learned something from "Rathergate" (as much as I hate to call it that) How about you get us an actual story?

  12. Re:How about Tetris on Gaming With a Headmouse? · · Score: 0

    Everyone calling parent a troll needs to chill out and go watch Wargames -- then maybe you'll get the joke. Chill out people. You call yourself nerds, you should KNOW THIS REFERENCE. I'm more ashamed that you don't.

  13. Re:Ob. Strongbad on World of Warcraft Sales Figures Soar in Europe · · Score: 0

    COMPYYYYY!!!!!

  14. Re:Old info on Mapping Google Maps · · Score: 0

    Streets & Trips also uses GPS (The more expensive version even comes with a nifty lil USB GPS reciever) It really is an excellent program, only Microsoft's own MapPoint beats it. I highly suggest checking it out.

  15. Re:nah.... on Could TNG Stunt Casting Save 'Enterprise'? · · Score: 0

    How is this a troll? I live in Dallas, and UPN has predominatly black programming? Slashdot has just gone to shit in the past few weeks, and the mods are reflecting this moreso.

  16. Re:What that guy is smoking? on Microsoft Claims Linux Security a Myth · · Score: 0

    wasn't it the pot calling the kettle black? not all refrigerators are black, and the saying originated from when both pots and kettles were made from iron, and thus black. I don't think refrigerators were around then. (But then where's they keep the brews?)

  17. Re:Oh yeah? on Microsoft Claims Linux Security a Myth · · Score: 0

    it's pronounced "Winks"!

  18. Re:Well... on Taking My Freedom With Me to China? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Agreed, parent is not off topic. The mods are on crack, because we all know that mods on marijuana mark everything 5 - Funny.

  19. Re:nah.... on Could TNG Stunt Casting Save 'Enterprise'? · · Score: -1, Troll

    I don't think it's just Dallas... I blame UPN. It's because ENT is not predominantly black. UPN don't play 'dat game.

    Today is a good day to compile.

  21. Re:--verbose on Darwinia Demo Released · · Score: 0

    You should make sure you know what you're talking about before you call someone a liar. Introversion made the original game, and you should shame yourself for not knowing this to begin with. And you call yourself a slashdotter.

  22. Re:EU PAL VERSION on Latest Handheld System Plays Famicom Games · · Score: 0

    No need for a PAL version, if you RTFA you'd notice that it only plays the 60-pin JAP versions, so you'd need to buy that adapter for the 72-pin version of the games, aka NTSC and PAL. (They both work with the adapter.)

  23. Re:DUPE! on eXeem Lite Public Beta Released · · Score: 0

    It's not a dupe, this one is about eXeem LITE, not eXeem. Try RTFA.

  24. Re:Both! - get stalled by relatively slow RAM on Centrino Mobile Equals Desktop Pentium 4 in Speed · · Score: 0

    Wrong. Go play Doom 3 at 500Mhz and then again at 3.4Ghz. Tell me which plays smoother.

  25. Re:First Thoughts on Exeem Open Beta Released · · Score: 0

    From the way they emphasized that they have no control over what is shared in the eXeem FAQ, I find it unlikely that any moderation will be enforced, aside from the 1MB minimum file size. Although legal action by the RIAA/MPAA could initiate some sort of modding.
