For Quake 2, the most commonly used clients are R1Q2 and Q2PRO. I recommend starting with R1Q2 because it keeps the same look and feel of the original game but offers major behind-the-scenes improvements. You can get texture packs to make

I would caution this thinking. Plan B pills are very expensive- $50 at your local Walgreens. Teenage pregnancies are highest in areas with high income inequality. Most of these families are living paycheck to paycheck, and the kids have

I have seen this with a lot of other drivers. My very first reaction is to brake. However, in all of my close calls, I have never noticed the other vehicle even attempt to slow down- they just honk their horn and continue on their way.

I remember when the ban first came about, HEB would make you buy the reusable canvas bags instead of having those heavy duty plastic bags. I don't know why they switched. Like you said, every other store in town will give you recycla

What scares me the most is the mortality rate. The numbers right now put it at 50%. Catch Ebola. Flip a coin and guess heads or tails. If you guess incorrectly, you die. It will be interesting to see this number once it (inevitably) spread

The reviews on this phone are very bad- frequent freezes, slow UI, randomly calling people, extremely limited number of apps, and lacking in basic functionality. I can understand the $0.99 price tag.

I somewhat agree. LongCal seems like a neat little tool, but I would not pay money for it nor would I use it for very long. The defining feature is being able to scroll in and out to see shorter and longer periods of time at a quick glanc

Can someone explain how this infects and gets activated on a system? It sounds like I have to download a certain PHP file onto the system and then execute it. Is this correct, or are attackers using other ways to automatically start the m

I was one of the users who went to your website the first time it was posted, saw that you had to register to see anything at all, and left. +1 for the changes!

Well done on the website. Navigation is smooth, and the layout is nice. I'm interested to see how this social network for stocks does once you get more users.

This is a great read. It goes into detail about the practical application of design patterns- when to use them, when not to use them, and some gotchas that are not mentioned in other books. I'd pay for a downloadable PDF version of t

Ignoring the ageism here, can we discuss why this would not be an open-closed case and cost thousands of dollars just to lose?

"When we disagree on something, for example, he always presents the most goddamned rational arguments laying them out in an obnoxiously coherent and systematic way." If politicians did this, the world would be a much better place.

C is a great language- it let's you get down and dirty with the computer. However, the one huge downside to programming in C is having to deal with strings. Let's face it, C strings are absolutely terrible. For such an important

This is hobbyist code. It should never actually be used out in the real world. Once you make the distinction, you can better appreciate code snippets like these.

Please, please, please do not teach programming in a 1960s-era style text editor with one font color. Syntax highlighting exists for a reason- it breaks down code into units that we can easily see and understand. If your code is all one c
