6 Places to Buy Pre-installed Linux Computers

Comment in News (6 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/01/2008
You can also check out ZeroConfigComputing.com. They'll put whatever kind of Linux you want on there on any kind of computer you can imagine. I bought a computer from them, and they even offer phone support for Linux if you have any questions about it. (see comment)

Why your gaming degree may be a waste of time

Comment in News (1 digg, 1 reply) - on 08/27/2008
I go to Southern Methodist University, and they have a grad school-level game design degree program. It gives you a Masters in Interactive Entertainment, but the kicker is this: If you are a level design specialist, you don't need any pre-reqs, so expect … (see comment)

10 Things You Absolutely Have to Know about Fable II

Comment in News (6 diggs, 3 replies) - on 08/25/2008
Personally I like my FPS, RPG, and Strategy games on PC, maybe throw in stuff like Flight Sim, but adventure games (which while Fable II is technically an RPG it's going to play more like an action game), fighters, sports games, etc should be on console. … (see comment)

Screen Shot - British Father commits suicide on webcam

Comment in Videos (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 08/24/2008
Ufia's comment is really ignorant. People go through shit and worse shit without suiciding, but there are also people who go through shit and worse shit and then suicide. Depending on how they were raised and what kind of emotional disablities they have, … (see comment)

BillOReilly.Com: "Grade McCain's Campaign" -- Bomb The Poll!

Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/31/2008
Well, he wants to poll the Internet, and the Internet is made up of people. Just because we saw it and the people he probably want to vote didn't doesn't make us ballot stuffers. I'd have graded him an F whether it was on Bill's site or someone else's. H … (see comment)

Gartner: "Windows is too monolithic" - Opens door for Linux

Comment in News (5 diggs, 0 replies) - on 04/14/2008
Trolltech's QT Designer is cross platform and WYSIWYG, making it very easy to use. I use the Linux version with no problems whatsoever. And if you're referring to Visual Studio, try NetBeans. VERY similar to VS. (see comment)

Anonymous 3/14 PRESS RELEASE

Comment in Videos (10 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/15/2008
Well some of what they have done (such as hacking the CoS servers to grab a lot of this information) would get them arrested in numerous countries if people knew who they were. As such, they remain anonymous to protect themselves. The Church also can't k … (see comment)

If you have a Paypal account, they just launched a new plug-in for your browser that lets you use Paypal instead of a credit card as long as a site takes MasterCard. What it does is create either a one-time CC number or a full-time CC number that it will … (see comment)

Activision May Be Considering An MMO Call of Duty

Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/06/2008
I'd buy that. That game is actually built around a good MMO platform because of the parts and their relative worths and such. And as long as they had lots of parts of all kinds of levels, it could be that you would be able to have a unique mech and not ju … (see comment)

Activision May Be Considering An MMO Call of Duty

Comment in News (2 diggs, 1 reply) - on 03/06/2008
Actually, it's how the maps are designed. They were designed to go anywhere from 8 (Shipment) to 25ish players. Any more than that and you start to see it get cramped. BF2142 on the other hand is made for 16,32, and 64 players, and they are nice spacious … (see comment)

It's Official: Live-Action Akira Confirmed for 2009

Comment in News (4 diggs, 1 reply) - on 02/22/2008
How would they do the ending to that? Better yet, how would they compress all the episodes into a two-three hour movie? Very crappily, very crappily. I love Evangelion, but that one needs to stay as an anime. They'd dumb down the ending as well and remov … (see comment)

Comment in News (4 diggs, 1 reply) - on 02/15/2008
Not going to cut it on some Windows versions sadly. You can either easily elevate with the right permissions (which malicious and smart coders could manage) or have no "admin" and all users are such. Or, even better, it could sleep until it notices you g … (see comment)
