They Die

/me looks at left over Halloween candy...

Got any gum?

BTW: what browser are you using that said this site looked good on? Flash plugins, css and Java all work? Anything popular that doesn't work well in it?

I use it for just about everything except heavy 3D modeling and heavy video editing. It's fine for light duty work but if things get heavy I switch over to my Intel iMac. It's good for light duty web browsing too. I don't have Flash installed but it's probably not good for YouTube or anything. Not sure about Java. CSS and Javascript seem to work pretty good, though. There are a few quirks but it's a work in progress. There's a guy updating browsers for older machines. ...

Check out Classilla for OS9 and TenFourFox for OSX on PPC Macs. I dual-boot the G4 and use both occasionally. I love the OS9 interface and wish Apple would've carried over some of the features. Plus it feels so much more peppy than OSX.

Is that what they say in the shower on Jersey Shore? "Oops, I dropped the sopa!"

I am against SOPA myself. It's going to cause more harm that good and possibly even violence from some sources I have been hearing.

sopa is a very bad idea

It's so everyone else reading the thread knows you've sent a PM to buy something. It's territorial -- the person who posts it is hoping that both A: another buyer will see it and decline to offer until the PM is sorted out, and B: the seller will see your "PM SENT" post first and give you priority on the sale.

I always figured it opened you up to more competition. And that bumping the thread didn't help! I must have it backwards, lol.

What Cebus said, and that a lot of sellers don't check their PMs in a timely manner. A bump with a notice helps bring it to their attention.

The ghosts in 2600 Pac-Man flicker because of sprite multiplexing, not because of any attempt at 3D. There were some early experiments with stereoscopic 3D on the 2600, but Pac-Man wasn't one of those.

Zelda on the wii is a boring game.

Doesn't Rad Racer for NES Have a 3D Function?

@jay, Higgs bosom = God boobs? @Chuck, it's really simple. Everything in an atom is made from light. Some particle, in theory, makes the light in to solid matter. They want to know why we, and everything in our reality is solid with mass. I for one think it is simply a matter of perspective. Maybe they will find it. If they don't, maybe the tree doesn't make a sound if no one is there to hear it.

Ah. Isn't solid a relative term? Theorically if we ran face first into each other a billion billion times, eventually we would pass right through each other a few times, right?

@ax, not quite. Particles are what they are, but some have mass due to interacting with the Higgs field.

lol, no I spent more time trying to adjust the straps on my proton pack only to have to take it off again to get in the vehicle.

I hate it when that happens!

Did you wake up slimed?

I'm coming up on 20 years next month, myself! Congrats, fellow old-timer! 😜🙌🥳👾

I had my 20th anniversary a couple months ago, interesting to see how I went from being an obnoxious 13-year old to an obnoxious 33-year old, heh

7 Years for me.  Wow!...Time keeps on slippin',  slippin',  slippin'

Nice. I'm gonna go to a swap meet tomorrow, near a place where I found an InTv Maybe I'll find another one XD

Nice find! Haven't seen any pre-NES stuff at garage sales in many years.

Yeah, the guy had a small tote full of boxed INTV games (some shrinkwrapped) but he wanted $80(!) for it. I didn't feel like haggling because they were mostly commons but I was able to cherry pick the AD&D game.

Thanks. I usually cut my own hair since it's short but, hey, free is free.

I remember when a tech training center tried to sell me on a "lifetime" pass. They closed about a year later. Hopefully, your barber or stylist doesn't close up shop that quickly.

Yeah, I thought about that. My wife says they've been around for a while. If anything I can just go back to DIY haricutting.

Did he barf them back up and ask you if they look like anything?

I told him it looked like his face. He didn't like that so well. Punched me in the nose.

Your lucky you didnt have to take him to the toilet.

He'll be all right ... as long as you get him home in time for corn flakes.

Yes! Right here:

(That's probably not the kind of help you meant, though.)

Yeah, more like mental help. I have too many hobbies as it is.

That sounded familiar. Took me a while to remember where I'd heard it before: http://www.youtu.be/CwVqOs3Aess

Wow I never knew there was a video for that! That was great. Pretty cool that they integrated the puppets from the movie. Thanks for posting.

That's pretty funny. I didn't know that. But I'm guessing it wasn't so funny when you made this discovery.

lol, no. It was at work and my boss had to redo some changes to a report. He's a pretty good sport, though. I think I was more upset about it.

So what you're saying is people FAP until they're finished, instead of stopping halfway? Sounds right.

Wow, I wish we could +1 status update comments!

The book is inspirational that way. I'm not a programmer, but it inspired me to dabble in Basic a little (i'll have to get back into it soon!)

Nice! lol

Life's an itch and then you die.

you get more points for the apple!

I like my phones dumb... Too concerned about them becoming self-aware or sentient and all dat sorta jazz... The last thing I want to see on my phone is a text message from Skynet telling me I'm a dead man.

Nooooooooo!.....er wait a minute, the Devs got their cut when it sold originally! Screw them. Next thing you know car manufacturer's will want a cut of every osed car sold because your not buying a new one instead!

HAHAHAHA

brilliant!
