  6. Re:Last refuge of a scoundrel on Kodak Sues Sony Over Digital Camera Patents · · Score: 1

    Locals say you can develop film in the ole Geneseo River in Rocheser because Kodak and Xerox dumped so many chemicals into it.

    Must be why Genny Cream Ale tastes so good.

  7. Re:Top 10 Star Wars DVD covers on Star Wars DVD Cover Art Leaked · · Score: 1

    Cool things that Mark Hamill has done outside of Star Wars:

    1. In the original theatrical run of "Amadeus", the movie version of which later swept the oscars, debuted the part of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart across from Ian McKellen playing Antonio Saliere
    2. Was in the horribly underrated sitcom "Soap"
    3. The Joker, for crying out loud

    4. Cock Knocker! "Don't fuck with a Jedi Master, son."

    If you are looking for a replacement for the nonexistent official conduit for OS X check out MAL Conduit. It works great even with my old Palm IIIxe.

  10. Re:English/Metric on Another English/Metric "Spacecraft" Problem · · Score: 1

    This is why the French have been so uptight about McDonalds...calling them 'French' fries had more to do with trying to tap into the idea of haute cuisine coming in small, medium and large rather than any inherent frenchness to the humble potato-based fast food.

    They are called french fries because the potatoes are Frenched(cut into lengthwise strips) before they are fried.

  11. Re:Not impressive on 64 Bit Athlon Notebooks Hit the Market · · Score: 1

    Bah, I'm going to hold out for a dual 64 bit laptop. With a RAID array. And hookers!

    In fact, forget the laptop!

    Their main focus is apparently basketball research.

    That research is obviously bearing fruit

    I almost went to What'sa Matta U(wait-listed), ended up going to Funk U and their School Of Hard Knocks.

  14. Re:Mod parent down?? on Microsoft's Patent Problem · · Score: 1

    Isn't the majority of this post a copy-and-past job from ADOT Troll (687975) above?

    Not unless druske has a time machine, he posted his 8 minutes before ADOT Troll

  15. Re:x86 on Xine Gets Native Sorenson3 Decoding · · Score: 1

    You might confuse people who think QuickTime is just a media player

    Just imagine the poor saps who think QT is a codec.

  16. Re:x86 on Xine Gets Native Sorenson3 Decoding · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you don't like the Apple supplied QuickTime Player why don't you try one of the many replacement players.

  17. Re:Super Floppy on Floppy the Robot · · Score: 1

    If your floppy is hanging off the wall I don't think it matters how long it is. :)

    You know its going to be a good day when you find a Johnny Cash refrence on slashdot.

  20. Re:AND the AAC files are locked to YOUR Macs on Apple Sells A Million Songs in Debut Week · · Score: 1

    You can save in your favorite format without actual CD burning:

    Boot Linux on your PPC, start MOL with your OSX in X11 window with network activated, run iTunes, listen the file, hook at your xmms and save it in any format xmms supports.


    That sounds like an awful lot of work, when you could just use Audio Hijack to do the same thing from within Mac OS X

  23. Re:How is it a Linux Review without the Distro? on Linux SMP Round-Up · · Score: 4, Informative

    Quake3's smp only works with Nvidia TNT2 cards under NT4.

    This is just not true. Quake 3 smp also works under Mac OS X and it does has a large impact on FPS.

  24. Re:What about an XBOX? on Lindows Media Computer: Power to Strike Microsoft? · · Score: 1
