  1. Re:Characters in any realm on World of Queuecraft · · Score: 1

    Blizzard have occasionally allow characters to move from an specific overcrowed realm to a specified less crowed realm. Not all servers were created at the same time, and earlier ones are now full. If I was on a new server, I wouldn't want a lvl 60 transferring in when everyone else is lvl 20.

  2. Re:Not to be a dick... on Google Execs Happy With $1 Salaries · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It looks good investors, but executive decisions based on influencing stock price aren't always best for the company.

  3. Re:Computer Gaming World on The Pointlessness of Current Videogame Journalism · · Score: 1

    When I used to play games a few years ago, Computer Gaming World was my magazine of choice. Very well written, and written by people who really played the games.

  4. Re:Genius Idiots. on Exploit Released for Unpatched Windows Flaw · · Score: 1

    You're assuming that the people who discovered the flaw (which requires talent imo) are the same people that released the malicious exploit.

  5. Re:Summarizing the summary on Dependency Injection with AspectJ and Spring · · Score: 1

    "the thing" is meant to the class, not a person. The class shouldn't know about which implementations of its components it should be using. Using inversion of control moves that responsibility away from your class.

  6. sounds promising on Holub on Patterns · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This sounds promising. I've been waiting for another book besides design patterns by the gang of four, and specifically looking for one with nice Java examples. The other design patterns books I've found are all geared towards J2EE or the enterprise market. Does anyone have a quick table of contents or a list of patterns he covers?

  7. Mobile phone turns my adapter off on Dell Recalls Millions of AC Adaptors · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I've noticed that sometimes when I receive a call on my mobile, if its placed near the power brick, the brick will turn itself off. I need to wait a couple of mins and plug and unplug it until it works again. Now I keep a battery inside the laptop just in case. I suppose they've always warned that mobile phones can affect electronics :)

  8. Re:House of the Dead! House of the Dead! on What's the Worst Movie You've Ever Seen? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    hehe I'd have to say this this is the worst movie I've seen in the past year. I wasn't even funny in a bad way, which is usually the saving grace of a B grade movie. What makes it worse is that you can tell that they had a fair sized budget for this film, but just wasted it.
