one of the ways I can see Linux going mainstream is convince ATi to either: 1) fix their drivers or 2) stop making video cards, period. then there's the issue of laptops and/or wireless cards not running right in Linux. Hell, my desktop fan runs full speed always in Linux, however when I ran any win...

Eh, I'll stick to not smoking myself.

that said, my dad used a pill to quit. I forget the name of the pill though.

would this share almost all the same dangers as actually smoking a cigarette?

This is the beautiful future we can look forward to. yeah, high school drop out, working two minimum wage jobs, going out to party while the baby's mother parties, getting government aid, who can hope for any more :roll: oh well, at least the kid isn't in the dumpster yet. :roll: THATS NOT TRUE THI...

this was constructed several months before the PSP, mind you

What, does everybody think that static electricity is some ethereal and magical force, some deviltry that exists to frighten small animals and computer chips? Also, they DO make those grounding armbands for a reason.. suggestion: USE ONE. There is no reason not to build one's own system anymore. It...

Really? Last time I bought a barebone kit was in 1999. Did they even have integrated video then? What do you mean by barebones kit? Like one that comes preassembled from Dell, HP, or something? if so, Yeah, sadly they had integrated gfx. :( I do remember using some of the Dell computers in school a...

My Saturn (which was made in '97 and AMERICAN MADE \o) has over 128,000 miles on it, neither the engine or the transmission have blown up yet (speaking of which I gotta get the transmission fluid+filter changed tomorrow, as well as the oil.)

Sorry to hear that your phone got stolen. Couldn't you have called the carrier to get them to deactivate your old phone temporarily until they found it :? that being said, did you report it to the police? Many newer phones have GPS technology in them, but are required for at least 911 calls. I perso...

I have a good credit score. I have never been late on a payment and over the recent years I have made a habit of using credit cards on regular purchases for the sky miles so I've built up a score. Having a good down payment helps a lot, I think around %35 of the total cost is looked upon favorably ...

Nice score. :) how did you get credit in these tough times? you must tell us.. that being said, does it still have a warranty on it? Also, how big is the engine? if you have a 2.2L or perhaps a 2.4L motor, you'll be able to get a K&N kit for it easily. Otherwise if you have the 2.0L motor (which...

GM was uncooperative considering the shitty state they are in. what do you mean uncooperative? also, hurray for buying American yet it causes more hassles. :roll: as far as Saturn and Pontiac, Saturn'll either get spun off into its own brand, or it'll be phased out by 2011. Pontiac will be just two...

I know several people are going LOL ford sux, but I actually like the Fusion. (Yeah, yeah I know, those are Mexican made and not US.) Just you all wait till the 2010 Ford Taurus comes out.. 340HP V6 3.5L Cyclone Engine (which is 40 more HP than a 2008 Mustang mind you, bonus points if that 300HP Mus...

congrats from a newbie

i would like to punch in the face, especially that bitch with her shit eating grin. you bought a home for way too much than you could afford and probably didn't need, then come crying when times get tough. boo fucking hoo, go and get something cheaper and smaller. I can understand where you're comi...

SNES4ALL was discontinued but Fox said something about ZSNES going multi-platform magically somehow? Mind you I haven't touched a SNES emulator in over like a year...... Oh lord... It's NOT going to happen. ZSNES is STILL majority x86 asm (which can only be ported to platforms that somehow use an x...

Hate to say this, but apparently you people understand the concept of trying to live above your means, which is how we landed in this recession in the first place. Is it really "living above your means" when your means change drastically with little warning? Should we all live 10 to a cra...

if anything I liked the idea of 10 and 12 hour shifts. gives me 3-4 days to do whatever the heck I wanted to do. Unfortunately for our generation, there is no such thing as job security anymore. Unless you happen to be over 60 ;) apparently you people don't understand the concept of looking for a jo...

seriously, you get all these cincinnati reds and cincinnati bengals getting in trouble for something just as equal to this or worse.. don't see why this is much different.

Christuserloeser posted this on every Dreamcast development mailing list. Peter Bortas of DreamSNES recently wrote a message there. I hope he gets this. As do I. I also hope Lantus get this notice as well. Now all we need to do is touch base with whomever ported snes9x to the PSP, PS2, and PS3 and ...
