  1. Player skills vs. level grinding on Classes vs. Skills in MMOGs · · Score: 1

    The problem with almost all online RPGs is there's too much focus on the latter. Unfortunately the game companies probably think it's the only way to sell subscriptions.

  2. Re:Why power per storage capacity? on 3 Terabytes, 80 Watts · · Score: 1

    Hey, does that mean I can sell this 1W/PiB floppy drive for a million dollars then?

  3. Re:your file server structure? on 3 Terabytes, 80 Watts · · Score: 1

    I just put all my media files in /home/ and back it up with scp. Call me lazy, but it works.

  4. In Sun's defense... on HP Baited With Cutouts of Founders · · Score: 4, Funny

    At least they're wasting far too much money on their marketing department, and not their legal one.

  6. Re:Bloody hell a video download on 11-year-old Proves Locks Not So Secure · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Er... linking to one on the front page of /.?

  7. Re:What goes around comes around on Apple Settles Creative Lawsuit for $100 Million · · Score: 1

    I thought most software patents were made by trash?

  8. Re:ATI/AMD - Show leadership on ATI Releases Five New Radeons · · Score: 1

    Unless you own a TNT2.

  9. Re:Yeah but.. on Linux Hardware Looks at Core 2 · · Score: 1

    What's forcing you to not just use 7.0?

  10. Re:I know Iknow!!!!1111! on Wozniak to Judge American Idol-Inspired Mac App Contest · · Score: 1

    Yes but... was omitting "Opposite gender" from that list accidental or deliberate?

  11. Re:More Zonk anti-PS3 FUD on PS3 GUI Takes Page From PSP Book · · Score: 1

    A good GUI isn't one that you only have to teach people to use once, but one where you don't have to teach them at all.

  12. Re:Tickled pink on Mozilla Developers Invited to Redmond · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You can thank the people who made your browser and those who made your OS (whichever they happen to be) for making that possible. Oh, and yourself for using them.

  13. Re:Vista modularity? on Mozilla Developers Invited to Redmond · · Score: 1

    I think you answered your own question.

  14. Re:Fewer colors on Polymer 'Muscle' Changes How we Look at Color · · Score: 1

    Brightness and saturation are easy to do - just make the display like a regular LCD, only instead of RGB you have colour/grayscale.

  15. RTFSummary on Polymer 'Muscle' Changes How we Look at Color · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It reflects white light. It works like a glass prism. Do you see people working with prisms getting microwaved to death or skin cancer from UV? There's your answer.

  16. Re:Composite Kwin. When? on First KDE 4 Snapshot Released · · Score: 1

    There are some useful ones but I turned most of the eye candy off.
    It does have edge-snapping though, it just does it in a brain-damaged way where you have to hold shift and the snap distance is too big to be useful. Oh and it depends on the wobble plugin for no apparent reason.

  17. Re:Why no ECC? on First Intel Quad Core Ready Desktop Mobo Spotted · · Score: 1

    If you've got problems with your OS crashing after a week, consider using a more stable OS. I don't use ECC, or even name-brand hardware, and I've never had to reboot because of the RAM. Then again I run it at 2/3 its rated speed.

  18. Re:Composite Kwin. When? on First KDE 4 Snapshot Released · · Score: 1

    What's wrong with it? Compiz is getting a lot better lately.

  19. Re:Not Just The Under 30 Crowd on ESR Advocates Proprietary Software · · Score: 1

    "Both" groups? If someone comes to me expecting free 24/7 Linux support all the time I can just tell them to get a Mac.

  20. Re:Dbus over Dcop? on First KDE 4 Snapshot Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    From what I've used of both, they work almost identically anyway.

  21. One piece of hardware I'll never understand: on Computer Voodoo? · · Score: 1

    The Sega 32X. Refuses to do anything, at all, unless you've let it warm up for an hour.

  22. Re:Not sure how it works... on Computer Voodoo? · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing it probably works the same way as fixing Ni-MH batteries by discharging and recharging them completely several times.

  23. Re:What would its name be on Our Moon Could Become a Planet · · Score: 2, Informative

    Or maybe he was using, I dunno, Latin?

  24. Re:In indiana... on 22,000 Indiana Students Using Linux Desktops · · Score: 1

    No need to change, Portage already supports RPMs transparently.

  25. Re:Sonic doesn't require a Genesis controller on Wii Version of Twilight Princess to Require Wiimote · · Score: 1

    The 16-bit Sonic games work fine with Master System controllers as well... and vice-versa.
