  1. Re:The alternative on Sober Code Cracked · · Score: 1

    Replying to myself here: If it's one url per day as the article implies, and if we know how to calculate the url for a given day, it should be trivial for law enforcement/registrars to track.

  2. Re:To infinity and beyond on Ctrl-Alt-Delete Animated Series Announced · · Score: 1

    The very first CAD comic acknowledged its setup was cliche. I always assumed they were referring to strips like penny-arcade.

  3. Re:IMHO... on Repercussions of Legislation on the Gaming Industry · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Take nudity for example. When I was last in Eurpoean I saw full frontal nudity (male and female) on television. The Europeans are a lot more tolerant of this kind of thing. Yet by many indices they have a much lower rate of social deviance.
    Full frontal nudity is "social deviance" in US culture. That's an interesting choice of words. =]
    Americans are legislating morality. They don't have any scientific evidence that nudity or profanity is bad they just know it is. They also believe in creationism.
    Since we've taken to comparing "Americans" and "Europeans" while throwing insults this way. I'd like to point out that many European countries are a bit worse on "legislating morality" when it comes to media violence or political ideologies that they aren't fond of. And they don't seem to have strong First Amendment type protections to combat this kind of censorship.
  4. Re:Huh? on The Importance of New Ideas · · Score: 1

    That came from Todd at Id software.. Id, Epic, Monolith and Gearbox are the companies I recognize on that list. That's not a group that's known for "breaking the mold" in the industry.

    That wisdom is way too high. You've also got the alignment wrong. Lawful?

  7. Re:Welld duh its written in C on No WINE Before Its Time · · Score: 1

    My mistake. When I think of Windows API i think of things like the basic UI elements, winsock, GDI, and whatnot. I suppose that speaks of my own limited exposure to windows development. Until, today I hadn't considered or appreciated the the enormous scope of what the wine project is tackling.

  8. Re:Welld duh its written in C on No WINE Before Its Time · · Score: 1

    What? WinAPI is pretty much entirely implemented in C. I'm guessing your only exposure to windows programming is something along the lines MFC? That's just a big C++ wrapper around WinAPI functions.
