[b]Re: one amazing photo[/b] [quote] Check the link below...This is really a sight to behold! The image is a panoramic view of the world from the new space station. It is a night photo with the lights clearly indicating the populated areas. You can…

Re: closure? (Quote) From what a web programming friend tells me, you should be using a DTD STRICT header with Mozilla if you want it to be standards compliant. By default, with no DTD line, Moz enters a compatability mode that attempts to work the …

[b]Re: Can't wait...[/b] [quote] Who has "ordered" you to fly a flag? [/quote] From http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/09/13/congress.terrorism/index.html :The House also passed a measure urging all Americans to fly the United States flag at hom…

Can't wait... To see what Congress pushes through this session. So far we've been ordered to fly our flags and I heard yesterday that it's now illegal to do anything 'negative' with a flag (the whole flag-burning thing). With the specticle of war o…

Re: What I wonder is... (Quote) I thought that would happen too, but I haven't seen any reports anywhere of this. When you install, say, Flash on Windows, does it install a different plug-in dependning on whether it's going into IE or NS? Or can one…

Re: and so... (Quote) I don't know jack here, but I could also see it being a technical issue since I could see that their equipement at some point would be tailored for originally delivering large bandwidth *to* your home with minimal communication…

Hey BR & BC, My brother-in-law just got a new computer and is thinking about high-speed internet access. Have any suggestions for DSL providers in Chicagoland? He found out that he's only 3000 ft from a CO, so it shouldn't be an issue. Thanks f…

Re: USB/Monitor switch box thoughts (Quote) This line tended to be on the expensive side when I got it 2-3 years ago... but it wasn't my money :) I don't think they make a 17" but maybe some other vendor does... (Image)

Re: USB/Monitor switch box thoughts Do you already have the monitors? I'm betting you do... but if not, look into something like what I have in front of me now: Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 900u (et al.). They have the USB hub built in and dual monitor c…

[b]Interarchy 5[/b] [quote] Hail All, Now that NiftyTelnet is valid to use in the US, I have a nice ssh clien for the Mac. Does anyone know of a secure FTP client that works with the Macintosh? The CS department here doesn't allow standard FTP, so…

Re: Back end, front end... (Quote) Yeah, sorry I've ignored that one. I guess I'd be the one to figure that out. I used to have a web stats thingy running on the logs, but after we swiched to Debian, I never had the energy to get it running again. I…

Back end, front end... (Quote) A good friend of mine now works for a web design company (he does mostly db programming for them). They have decided NOT to work around any bugs in any browsers. This way, surfers see how broken or not things really ar…

#CP# Settlers!!!!!!! If you are addicted to Settlers of Catan like me, you'll get nothing done for a while when you check this out with your Java 1.1 enabled browser (Moz, IE 5+, maybe NS?): http://sunlab-01.cs.nwu.edu/~thomas/java/soc/ If you've…

Thank you MuffinHead! I know it's not complete and there still lots to do (hint, hint, pitch in, hint, hint) and I know there were lots of contributors along the way, but no one was able to really get us this far. Thanks for all the blood, sweat,…

I just played my first extended gaming bit in some time (sigh) and finished the recently released Mac demo level of Warrior Kings. I liked it enough to keep it in my intriguing bin. Seeing how much things like terrain, formations, and tactical plann…

Re: Ok, I'm looking forward to its release (Quote) Best guesses I've heard are mid- to late-July. I think if they slide into August, they might be risking their lives from the growing vehemence in the posting over the last few month ;) Right around…

Re: Good news! (Quote) I don't doubt it from what I've heard. I guess I was most worried about being able to connect to servers and being able to use the latest versions of the high-quality content. I'm extrapolating here, but my experience is that …

[b]Good news![/b] [quote] I daren't test this iBook's luck after reading over the requirements. It failed Jedi Knight's video card with 32mb of VRAM "requirement" in the playability stakes rather dramatically. It was like playing Myth wit…

Re: NWN Tech Demo (Quote) I've been staying away from spoiling myself on this game for as long as I could, but now I'm BitTorrenting the demo as I write. As a Mac user and a huge current RPG'er (non-computer, mind you), I nonetheless am probably no…

On the bright side... I might get my money's worth out of Civ III then. Although I *still* feel stiffed that tech posters wasn't included... grrr... (Image)

Re: Gimme a break (Quote) Our site policy for removing references to certain material is not grounded in some moral stance. You will probably find the spectrum of opinion within #CP# on such topics. Rather, it was set by me and helps ensure the exis…
