Was Doom ever ported to PS2?

Probably not, but make no mistake: PS2[^] != PS/2[^] 
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Do you do any Echo Cancellation too btw. 
We are implementing SIP telephony on a PC with speakers and a microphone attached, and everything is singing around like crazy.
I googled a bit, but results are not very promising, I read about a guy who needed a year to implement Echo Cancellation in software ...

That was such a fun game for me back in the day. Good memories about that one.

I was somewhat obsessed with it myself ... 
I bought a new computer kitted out specifically for playing Doom II: DX/4 100, 32 Meg RAM, solid Graphics card, SoundBlaster, ...
Did you get the "Doom dreams"?

I was terrified the first time I played the game. I didn't get "Doom dreams" but we would dial the volume up on the speakers to get maximum effective crap your pants effects.

Yeah, I know what you mean. That first "dark area" ...
Even now the sound of an Arch-Vile seeing you raises the hair on the back of my neck. You knew there was trouble when you heard that!

I found your ToDo list:
- Move around on those chairs with wheels.
- Grab the good office supplies.
- Check for beer in fridge.
- Found nothing? Go to the nearest pub!

Well for me it's the Construction Industry, Once your full time you get a high-vis jacket etc. I have only worn it three times twice on a customer site, once 'cause it was raining and I didn't want to get my usual coat wet. How can I get a job where you get tequila for elevenes...

Work for a small SW co with a boss trying to be cool.
The champagne was when a few big contracts he'd been chasing for months came in right before Christmas.
Dunno what the Tequila was for, he asked if I wanted a shot at 4:50pm on a Friday. I declined because it conflicted with my 0% alcohol when driving policy; and I never found out if he was celebrating landing something or just splurged on a bottle of Patrón and wanted to share.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Not in the local supermarket. They are all buying stuff as if a famine was eminent. And all I wanted was something to eat as lunch and, if it's not asking too much, something to drink to get through the day.

I walk past the local council and government offices every day on the dog walk, and the car park is jam-packed... except on a Friday - any Friday - when it's mostly empty by lunchtime.
..and I pay my taxes for this... it's a disgrace, I tell ya.

They probably look out the window and say "look at that man being able to walk his dog during the day, it's a disgrace"

Yeah but I work at weekends and into the evenings - I'll bet my bottom dollar they don't.

The Register spake thus: [^]Quote: Microsoft has advised customers that offensive language on Skype, in an Outlook.com email, or in an Office 365 Word document is a potentially account-closing offense under its updated terms of use.
The tweaked services agreement, which comes into effect on May 1, 2018, now includes the following code-of-conduct item:
Quote: Microsoft told The Register it does not listen to Skype calls, which is good to know. But the Windows giant added that it may examine private files and conversations that potentially breach the code-of-conduct if the biz receives a complaint from someone, be it a Skype chat or an email, etc.

I can see the VPN business is going to get another boost (not that the naughty folk aren't already using them.) All these stupid ideas will do is scare even more honest folk into using encryption.
BTW: does routing through Antarctica contribute to the ice sheets melting? Them routers gotta be running red hot with every man and his dog using them.

I wonder how much they just snoop?
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Because it wasnt dead[^]
"Headless chicken survives for a WEEK since being decapitated and shows no sign of expiring" WTF?
If it really is decapitated then I am going for the 'some dinosaurs had a second brain in the pelvis and birds are related' angle.

Mike the Headless Chicken[^] famously survived for eighteen months...
They are very dim creatures, even for birds. They are lucky they taste so good: they wouldn't have survived otherwise...
