en.wikipedia.org — The modern FPS genre emerged during the early 1990s, at the point when home computers became sufficiently powerful to draw basic 3D graphics in realtime. The breakthrough games were id Software's Wolfenstein 3D and Doom...

I remember how wolf3d used to scare the crap out of me while playing in the dark.And all you complaining about the "favorite links" vs. "real news" diggs, just don't digg it! That is the point of digg, if it isn't digg worthy it won't get promoted, if people like it, IT WILL!!! digg +1

@comrademikhail: "I don't mind a change every once in a while for an interesting article like this."Two problems with that argument:1) It's on Wikipedia, so it's easy to look up yourself if you care to (unlike news, which you don't know what to look for because it's NEW)2) An occasional diversion from news is tolerable. But when non-news is in or near the majority, there's a problem.

@frogman54:Yes, I know there is no way to change a large group of people like that. Just like MLK couldn't change a large group of people who were against blacks. Oh, wait...Okay, extreme analogy, and it definitely makes it sound like I think non-news is on par with racism... but the point is that I could change some people (it's happened in the past) and there could be effects of propagation (I don't know if that'll happen, but it is theoretically possible). Besides, I'm bored and this is just as good an activity as anything else in my immediate vicinity.And for the record, I acknowledged your robot argument when I said krose and quickness aren't the problem. They are the Creators.I'm sorry I didn't sling mud, but I generally think that if you have to stoop to that you basically have no argument, so I don't want to give the appearance that I have to stoop to that level.But, hey, well played anyway.(As for your mentioning of the anti-digg [usually referred to as "bury" by those who want it], I should probably say that I am very much in favor of such an option and have been fairly vocal about it. All we need is a mass campaign of letting the creators know we want it...

@OHmichael: No, no I do not. What's the point? It doesn't belong either.@comrademikhail: just based on page 1 of Digg right now, I see no fewer than 7 of 15 (and that's giving a little leeway) non-tech and/or non-news items. That is near the majority.Of course, it's not necessarily representative of Digg as a whole, but I'd say it's pretty average for Digg.
