Re: Riddle me this

Not necessarily. But do look at the last two lines, it's a dead giveaway when you think about it.

Re: H2G2

Although I have to disagree, I think Life, the Universe, and Everything was the best. I didn't care too much for the last two books. I also have The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, but I haven't read it yet, is it any good?

Don't use KDE, major resource hog. Use a lightweight window-manager like fluxbox and do all your work in a terminal. Easy.

To play something with mplayer, it's just "mplayer " Really complicated.

Mandrake is teh bad.

Anyway, yeah, mplayer can work with almost any type of file, codec doesn't matter. No clue why it would mess up.

Wow...

I got RTZ to work using a DOS emulator called DOSBox. I know a lot of people here have been asking about RTZ...this may be the solution.

http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/

Free and open-source. Runs on Linux and Windows (Mac too, I think.)

Enjoy.

Re: Zork-inspired?

But in Strong Bad's game, doesn't it tell you something to the effect of "Ye can't pick that up, as it is firmly attached to the wall, which is firmly attached to the dungeon, which is firmly attached to everything else." Or something?
