I'll let myself out quietly...
That is your parents point (unless I've missed a joke that your smiley represented). iD released the Quake 3 source code, it's been improved and modified and supports amd64. Just use your original pak files with it (they aren't included as they weren't released and are still subject to iD's copyright)
If you don't have the pak files, there is always OpenArena
I don't know how it is in other parts of the world but here in the UK, I don't know of any way of instructing telecoms providers to not route calls that have Calling Line ID withheld
Unsurprisingly, this particular company Andrews and Arnold, do offer it (and have done for years)
http://aaisp.net.uk/kb-telecoms-sip.html (Under 'incoming features' - "ACR: You can set your number to reject calls where the calling number is withheld. The caller gets a suitable message and are not charged for the call.")
So all you need is a standard VoIP phone and their £1 a month VoIP service and you're off.
Their service is currently undergoing open beta trials with mobiles too - http://aaisp.net.uk/telecoms-mobile.html
It's a sad state of affairs when even geek oriented sites like slashdot don't support IPv6...
That's a very good point, and very sad.
It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.
