    The Open Meridian Project is going strong with 40 or so people logging in per day. Check us out at http://openmeridian.org/ we have a new 3d client in the works, and all kinds of fun. There is also the official legacy servers (also open source, we are a fork) at http://meridian59.com/

  2. Great... Just what we need... on Microsoft Aims To Close Performance Gap With Internet Explorer 9 · · Score: 1

    Great... Just what we need... Virii infecting our video cards. I can see it now Tech: "I just cant get rid of this thing, every time i reboot it comes back!" Supervisor: "Have you tried replacing the video card?"

  7. Re:Wow.... on Air Force One Flyby Causes Brief Panic In NYC · · Score: 1

    For some reason i remember a plane making an emergency landing in the Hudson a few months back.. one in which everyone survived... and one in which there was no mass panic about. I seem to remember it flew over parts of Manhattan several times before landing (crashing) in the Hudson. Granted the story was all over the news, but not because people fled in terror. Regardless, i agree that people living in unnecessary fear, but that is their choice, not mine. :)

  8. Packin my bags on Newt Gingrich Says Free Speech May Be Forfeit · · Score: 1

    Allright, time for the US to follow Britian in the surveillance war.. Security Cameras with Horns and Microphones, State issued smartcard ids, hell maybe even barcode tatoos and RFID implants. Lets pack our bags and move to Canada.. or.. somewhere.

  9. Re:Ahh... messy racks... on How a Wiring Rack Should Look · · Score: 1

    Here in houston, 90% of the structured wiring vendors are doing installations that look like crap. My company makes ALOT of money cleaning up these nasty datacenters: http://www.vdicommunications.com/datacenter_tour.p hp. That link goes directly to some before and after photos of installs and cleanups we've done. Check them out, its quite funny.

  13. Re:It's all about context on What Should One Know to be Truly Computer Literate? · · Score: 1

    Thats funny... I use AutoCad for floorplan design and estimating, Visual Studio for programming, and MS Office for various other tasks all at work, so does that mean i'm computer literate? I think "Computer Literate" is more about understanding the underlying functionality of a computer, the concepts behind computing. For example, if Joe Blow knows how to figure out key combinations on windows software, he is then instantly more efficient at any program he uses on virtually any platform. If Jane Blow understands the basics of TCP/IP, she is then able to work with more complex software than the basic user, again, on virtually any platform.

  14. Re:I've been there on Help for an MMORPG Addict? · · Score: 1
    Avoid AA-type pseudoreligious programs. They have been proven not to work (no flames, please, go google the study yourself).
    Excuse me, I've been clean for two years in Narcotics Anonymous. And 12-step programs are NOT pseudoreligious. Why dont you come to a few meetings and listen, maybe you'll learn something. as for the MMORPG Addiction, Southpaw is correct, until the person is willing there is not much that can be done, there are many things that could be done to interrupt his cycle however.
