From TFA: "After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming.""

Duke Nukem Forever itself has almost become legendary in the gaming community, or perhaps more like the industries longest standing joke, having been "in development" for 10 years . The screenshot they provided on their forum looks quite good. Let's hope the trailer is equally exciting and more to the point, that this wasn't some Christmas Party joke prompted by too much Egg Nog.
"Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, there has been a screen shot taken from the teaser and posted in our forums."

We'd like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John).

Journal SPAM: Fear, Sadness, Anger 2

Journal by stoolpigeon on Tuesday December 05, 2006 @10:37AM

We just had a meme yesterday that did pretty well, I think in part because we haven't had one running around in a while (not that I've seen anyway). So I don't know that this will go anywhere, but I just saw this quite humorous post by TL and couldn't help but think that it could be interesting as something funny, or something serious. So here is my more serious take on these three.

And yes, if you go to the Firehose you'll see this Journal there.

I can't even begin to fathom the thought process behind this "behavior change".

That's not a bug, but a behavior change. Journal entries without a

In a few weeks I'll be trading in the convertible for a mini-van. My precious SAAB required yet another call to GEICO roadside assistance to continue its journey last night. They're definitely losing money on that plan. Good thing the mileage while towed doesn't show up on the mileage-o-meter thing.

By implementing FireHose, Slashdot.org allows for users to vote, or "digg", articles for promotion to publishing on the web site. Beta implementation of the kludge process introduces new coloring scheme, and more user input. Slashdot.org clings to the original roots of Robert Malda, and refuses to fall prey to the style over substance offerings of other collaborative web sites. With a site that can count life span in decades, it is refreshing to see a breath of fresh, albeit halitosic, air into the venerable Slashdot.org."

So far, according to the project's Web page, there are only 11 species roaming around (or standing still, in the case of the plants), but the project wiki's developer resources pages seem to give fairly clear if basic instructions on how to create more, and there is even a bit of open-source code to check out. More info here."
