  1. Re:Hang on... on Vista Pirates To Get "Black Screen of Darkness" · · Score: 1

    yep. Mainly when the system triggers the black screen, and the user can't stop pr0n pop-unders from installing crapware with IE help

  2. Re:No, really? on TV Viewing Linked to Attention Problems · · Score: 1

    Just to mention (in Brazil), the main audience-whore programs are soap operas (mainly those starting at 21h). You see credit card/bank/car (one, two or all) being advertised in every episode. (I am at univ. at night, free from this crap, luckily)

    Actually, iceages ocurrs before interglacial periods of 10k to 30k years.

    ...and bad jokes. A little excerpt for those who didn't RTFA:

    It can, for example, capture chromosomes spooling during cell division or a cervical cancer cell shriveling up when treated with acetic acid.
  8. Re:How about on Finally We Get New Elements In HTML 5 · · Score: 1

    -A height attribute that actually works? isn't it browsers' fault (instead of HTML itself) ?
  9. Hm? on Office Printers May Pose Health Risks · · Score: 1

    Air conditioners are better in making your health crappier along the work time... --- oblygatory: but about the printers, anyone has ever imagined a beowulf cluster of these?

  10. Re:Photo of one Zach Quinto - yes, very Nimoy-like on Leonard Nimoy to Play Spock in Next Star Trek Movie · · Score: 1

    slashdotted link.

  11. Re:Known since 2005 on New Hack Exploits Common Programming Error · · Score: 1
