which could suck, as imho the game looks better and loads faster on the xbox. can you say rims? but can you say DTS on the ps2? thats a rhetorical question, please don't stand on your ps2 and try to say DTS, or even spell it. i think I would go for visuals over sound though, after all I am not a dog. oh yeah, can you say exclusive contracts?
you seem to be very concerned about your brand of mouse and it's details, face it, your attached. might I sway your decision to the console with the mention of big screen TV, a couch, some friends and surround sound. gta:vc has DTS support on ps2. mice were designed for desktop computing and old PARC systems. game controllers were designed, well, to play games!
I'm already having a strange obsessive twitching in my left leg. I think I might need to use up some vacation time in September.
it's probably because the fungus growing in your REAL garbage needs to be taken outside. Why play a game that is the same as everyday life? Give me particle guns or a pirate ship or a fast car and a machine gun. and please don't buy your sims a video game so after work you can be playing a video game in which you make a person live a life in which they play video games when they come home from work. next thing you know you will be begging maxis for a slashdot patch for sims 2.1. go get a better job, go get better furniture, and go get more REAL friends. and Christ's sakes lad, don't pee on the floor. bladder... worst game feature ever!
yeah and all that speed that comes with the games that aren't infected with the windows bloat. Did you ever try to read those disks in Applesoft basic? you couldn't. you know why? not for copy protection, cause there was bare iron waiting for the games to come off smoking. why did I have as much fun playing games on a machine with one (1) measley megahertz when today I have one thousand times the processor speed and maybe a billion times the disk performance but my gaming experience has only improved maybe 5 fold?
I have heard rumors of a cypher on the street called SHA-X. It's not mathematically strong, as you so eloquently put, but it's supposed to be really good, really stong stuff. And is really asymmetrical, meaning it takes less time to decypher the message after encryption. Unfortunately it uses a semi-random keysize, so you never know the strength until you try to decrypt. It also has a key that destroys itself 48 hours later so Alice or Bob can't even tell you were ever encrypted. Only problem is the algorithm tends to overuse one particular register resulting in spontaneous cpu burnout.
pr comes in. day after day, the technicians couldn't understand why the thermoelectric discombubulator kept blowing fuses. they tried replacing the chickenelectrometer. they tried replacing the positronic ejector. they even tried pressing the reset button. by about the 11th day they were so sick of replacing the fuses on the thermoelectic discombubulator (which you must access with a 1m discombubulator defuser through the equivalent of a mouse hole in a panel with two giant 02 vents mounted side by side blowing in your face the whole time) just to test the new fix that they mounted the fuse box on the outside of the said module. Good thing they did... they finally figured out... it was the flux capacitor. anyways, some guy came through the room about two weeks later and said, "Ship It!" and, well you know the rest.
As far as the movies rating, I can see why it would be R, but there's nothing in there that a teenager couldn't handle. I'd have no problem bringing 14 year olds and up to the movie. Anybody out there now who's thinking of enlisting might want to go see the movie. There's some footage of solders talking about there experience that's pretty sobering.
I think you may have hit the nail on the head with that one. 17 year olds are a prime target for recuitment, and thay are uninformed enough and very suceptible the the "sales-pitch" the recruiters use. However one could also argue that they would go see the film and just not have enough experience in mere thinking to be swayed any further in one directon or the other. I only saw the move last night, a late show at that, so I am still processing it.
One more thing, that comment by many, "This is news for nerds, this discussion doesn't belong here." Keep in mind that slashdot has a very refined comment and moderation system. Go try and weed your way through the flamin trolls on yahoo message boards, you have to go through so much crap to find the equivalent of a +5 insightful/informative that you won't gain any benefit from a discussion. I see many stories I would like to see discussed in this fasion but I don't submit them cause I don't think they are news for nerds/tech. I'm glad to see this one here.
you could access memory locations and make the speaker click (0xC055?), or start the disk drive motor. the x and y axis on the joystick (or your koala pad) was another memory location, as were the buttons. add a mockingboard, and you could get to the synth channels with a few STAs. tie them all together and you could 'draw sound'. you were on the bare hardware.
Jim was not singing. He was manipulating the universe directly so you thought he was singing. And apparently he did a good job, cause we BOTH got the same impression. Another reason we wish good artists wouldn't take drugs. Or die of them. Shoot we stil have Aerosmith. Why why why didn't he die of dugs, unless it was to make the lovely eleven daughter of his? Like Bart S. said of paradoxii, "Dammed if you do... Dammed if you don't!!!!!"
p.s. thought the helicopters and napalm was Floyd... maybe he manipulated the universe NO CARRIER
as long as I can overclock the dsp on my quadra 660av, i'm all for it. give me an excuse to pull it out of the stack of 10Mb hubs I am saving for that day when someone posts an article about overclocking them...
That's still a 1000% increase though, which is lotsa fair bits.
btw, anyone know where to get a reliable 40MB hd and OS 7.5? I need the System Enablers too. (duh, I gnow, ebay. its a joke, like the C64 loading from tape screen from GTA:VC. If you don't get it, you don't get it.)
first I connect to port 135 infected as the blood ran down the helmet opening the shining port 4444
upon which I did truly deliver my glimmering payload on a raft.
tftp my goods from the infected knights in shiny armour!!!
I'm your back door man!!!!!!
let me sleep all night on your Windows Boxen!!!!
oh yeah!!!!!
jim rocks windows doesn't.
Re:I wanted one of those..

Old Toy Modding?

· Score: 3, Interesting
I wanted one too, really bad, for Xmas. After opening all my presents, no Big Trak:(. As soon as the stores all opened up after Xmas, I took all my Xmas money and went to Toys R Us and bought one. The whole family watched me navigate an obstacle course in the kitchen, my uncle mumbled something about microprocessor. I think it was soon after that I got an Apple ][e for my birthday. Thanks Dad!
I still have it (the bigtrak, the ][e died), and believe it or not, it's not in a closet or the garage, it's on a shelf in the living room. Damnit, now I have to go find a nine volt!!!

no offense for the slashdot comment.

But hey, if you got extra cpus...
If they were interested in helping newbies, they wouldn't be blowing grandma out of her chair with a first step such as:
1. Click Start, click Run, type wscui.cpl in the Open box, and then click OK.
Whatever happend to click start, click on the control panel, then click on the icon...?
I fear the easiest solution for most will just be clicking the disable box next to the firewall service.
just got that working with xsupplicant today.
hello CAs.
Hopefully they have a dumb webmaster that just puts the new junk in /ads/ :)
Of course, the site "is best viewed with IE(tm)"
rtfa. both of them. no shovel required for the second one. (hint hint)
Jackass.
very inspirational too. a great history. makes me want to leave some punch tape in the desk drawer.
so check one of the meta review sites. read some bad reviews, read some good reviews, spot the plugs[click ad to continue(tm)], and be well.
i'm still in the (game from movie == junk) camp myself but thats what rentals are for.
no it went more like this...

it's really that sophisticated.
no mod points.
you rock.
I know a lot of people won't go see it because they don't want to put money in Michael Moore's pocket.
cost of movie ticket: $9.75
cost of candy, large drink, medium popcorn: $13.38
Hearing bush screw up the quote at the end: priceless
Looks like the theaters are making even more than Moore on this one. (homonymns unintended)

call -151, those were the days.

yeah but if you run this you have to remove your xbox linux cause XBox live and xbox linux are incompatty.

It's not the frequency, it's the crap on TV that prevents you from thinking.
and how again is a 178MB "upgrade" gonna help us poor dialup bastards?!?!?
i'll be the long hair at the recruiting centre this afternoon.
...will eventually exhaust core memory.
I use DIMMs you insensitive clod.
