I like the change to Stadium. Whenever that was done. I still see the BOZ are still blood seeking though

Re: Counting Suicides in CTF
I can see how it could be tactical... In CTF it is tactical, probably at least 98% of the time. Good defenders suicide to keep their shields up, or to get back to their team's side quickly. Good flag-runners suicide to get full shields for their next run, or to hand off the flag to a teammate when ...

Re: Https everywhere for Internet Explorer
HTTP vs HTTPS I always assumed was primarily server related, not client. But I could be wrong. As far as I understand the HTTPS protocol is just "secure" hence S, and is used by most email based servers now. Such as Gmail, but the also have it on things like Runescape and such I guess as well. As ...

Re: Your favorite brands of laptops that don't suck
Laptop? Really? I've never heard of someone building their own laptop. Yeah, it's actually interesting. It's harder, and sometimes very expensive, but it's possible. You can find anything to be the case really. Speaking as someone that just did a factory install for someone, avoid Dell like the ...

Re: Your favorite brands of laptops that don't suck
If price doesn't matter? Then I'd go with Alienware, the issue? You'd also have to have some sort of supreme cooling system if it's destiny is a total gaming rig. Hence why it's pricey. Other then this? I usually go Dell, and Asus is good too. But in all honesty? If price doesn't matter, and you ...

Re: GPU and Router suggestions

Ubuntu question.
So I recently got Ubuntu, for those who don't know what Ubuntu is? It's an OS... Like if Mac OS and Linux had a baby, which is longer then just simply saying based off of Unix. Anyway, I was curious if A: Descent 3 is compatible with Ubuntu, or if B: \"Wine\", A Windows Emulator, will work just as ...

Joystix: My Curiosity
Alright, I made this out of my simple curiosity. Do you use a joystick? If you do, do you prefer it and what brand? If you had to recommend a brand to someone who uses a Dell Inspiron 1750 with Windows 7 (x64) and multiple USB ports, what brand would you say is best (for Descent 3)? I'm curious ...

I always liked the spread fire cannon. I think it was called the phoenix cannon? I can't remember it's been so long. I liked it because it was annoying, and it was fun to annoy with.
