  1. Re:Requires 3D card on Kingpin client for Linux available · · Score: 1

    Actually retro does have a place in computers but it's more a case of downaloding an Apple IIe emulator and playing Lode Runner for 8 hours straight because that's what you did when you were a kid 8)

  2. Reeves techno-films on Katz vs. Taco: The Matrix · · Score: 1

    The version I read sported the coke addicted dolphin as well. I quite liked Johnny though I thought it was a reasonably good adaption and it was butchered too horribly. Just grabbed my copy of Burning Chrome and it does feature the dolphin.

  3. Let's get that Slashdor support happening! on Segfault and User Friendly threatened · · Score: 1

    Well theos-software.com is down. theos.com is still up. I just wrote to both lawyers/ceo and Theo, theo replied in about two minutes. He's up working at 4am. He said that by his count theos-software has 52 emails to read tomorrow, judging by those who have emailed him. I'd prefer it to be 52,000 myself ;)

    This is so funny I've gotta pick out some holes in it!

    What's so hard about downloading a gziped program and typing ./configure, make, make install? Plus I don't even have to go through the struggle of taking the nasty shrinkwrap off ;) And it's better for the environment!

    Hmmm... Well if we had everything shrink wrapped like Microsoft does we'd get the same time of dumb default setpu problems they do, ie setups that set up services you don't know about and provide a big open door for people to get into your system. Can anyone say IIS? Which brings me to my next point.

    So Linux has week security. I guess he hasn't visited Roothshell or AntiOnline and found the plethora of security related bugs and hacks that exist for the Redmond based baby! Sure this site also has bugs for linux but the difference is that it is usually a matter of days, maybe even hours before they're fixed, in Microsoft land it can take months!

    My current chip is an AMD K6-2-350, my *THIRD* K6 Chip. Every single one of them has been as solid as a rock. I think that you had better check your facts before spreading your FUD around.
