  1. Fourth on Small Asteroid To Buzz Earth · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER

  2. Re:Piggy ride! on Small Asteroid To Buzz Earth · · Score: 0

    Uhhhhhhh RTFP "that will land on this asteroid and then piggy ride on it."

  3. Oh great on Folding Nanosheets To Build Components · · Score: 2, Funny

    A technology that will HAVE to be outsourced to Asia...

  4. I would love on Terry Childs Case Puts All Admins In Danger · · Score: 1

    For some outspoken person in the courtroom to just ask the judge and prosecuters if they even have rudimentary knowledge of network administration and the tools common for such a profession.

    So will I now be eligible for lawsuit since I have multiple means of accessing my businesses networks?

  5. Re:interesting times on EU Says MS Must Offer Other Browsers; Now What? · · Score: 1

    The problem is that when I design a website, I have to account for all the fucks still running IE because they are too noobish to install a new browser. When Microsoft wants to pay my invoices I'll support their shitty ass included browser.

  6. Re:interesting times on EU Says MS Must Offer Other Browsers; Now What? · · Score: 1

    Question 1: Is IE standards compliant (Y/N)
    Question 2: Does this mean more work for web designers (Y/N)
    Question 3: Is IE a competent browser (Y/N)

    Just curious to hear what you think

  7. Re:No, I don't think they do... on Do Video Games Cost Too Much? · · Score: 1

    Short answer: game developers aren't making games like they used to. Overall I'm unimpressed with the majority of console games, what happened to innovation, originality, and the 'fun factor'?

  8. Re:Band 2.0 on Bands Bypass iTunes With iPhone Apps · · Score: 1

    What happens? You're out a whopping $3.
    I would pay $3 for hours of my favorite band and deal with some inconveniences. Better than spending $12 on 1 album and not being able to do anything with my music because of DRM.

  9. Re:starcraft 2 is the exception on Do Video Games Cost Too Much? · · Score: 1

    Want to buy a goodie bag of some Blizzcon shwag? ;p

  10. Yes on Do Video Games Cost Too Much? · · Score: 1

    That's why we play free games that IMO blow all current-gen game out of the water with gameplay mechanics and movement ability - Tribes 2 for instance.

    hear hear!

  12. Re:Options on Microsoft.com Makes IE8 Incompatibility List · · Score: 2, Insightful

    But, what would that do to all the noobsauces on IE6-7 who don't know what a better browser is? Bill Microsoft.

  13. Re:Social Engineering on Rogue Anti-Malware Pushes Fake PCMag Review · · Score: 1

    nope

    C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc just open your host file with a text editor.

    my friends computer has some clever worm that even after fixing the hosts file can still redirect traffic, for instance avast.com redirects to 127.0.0.1 and it somehow stops be from booting up hijack this, and disables the network in safe mode...

    kind of has me frustrated, i could just reformat but then I would feel I gave up!

  14. Dear god on Student Arrested For Classroom Texting · · Score: 2, Insightful

    They are making her go to court on 420? Those sick bastards

  15. Re:Oh, that's all right then on Facebook Scrambles To Contain ToS Fallout · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Exactly true - at the beginning of 2008 I got fed up with the site and deleted my account.

    Peer pressure and boredom brought be back 3 months later and I remade an account with the same information - to my suprise my ENTIRE account was restored, I mean EVERYTHING. Every picture, every comment, every message, every tagged photo... everything you do on Facebook is stored away for good.

  16. Why not... on Repairing / Establishing Online Reputation? · · Score: 0

    Just specify your middle name along with your resume? So John Smith the pedophile wont come up when searching John Doe Smith...

  17. Liquid Wood sounds good... on "Liquid Wood" a Contender To Replace Plastic · · Score: 0

    It doesn't change the fact that they are over-felling in the first place... hardwood is extremely energy inefficient and requires toxins to process into paper. While it's good that they are actually recycling one of timbers by-products, but they are still ignoring other easier and more efficient (read: harder to monopolize)hardwood substitutes.

    Hardwood is 20-40% cellulose while Hemp is over 70% cellulose.

    If this isn't enough, consider the lifespan of hardwood vs. hemp. Hardwood takes tens of years to mature, while the turnaround for hemp is every few months. One acre of hemp produces as much usable material as SEVEN acres of timber.

    In addition to paper, hemp can also be used to make biodegradable plastic and has been done for over 50 years. Why is the government so restrictive of a plant with so many clear benefits?

  18. Thank god on Apple Claims That Jail-Breaking Is Illegal · · Score: 0

    That my Android is open source!

  19. Re:ultimately reduces consumer choice on Mozilla To Join EU Suit Against Microsoft · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Ok, did nobody read the article stating that Mozilla did NOT want their products bundled with Windows? So just what is Windows supposed to do, ship their OS with no way of getting on the web? That's just silly.

  20. L4D on Left 4 Dead DLC, SDK Announced · · Score: 0

    The game wasn't worth $50-60, and they are charging AGAIN for new game modes and two maps... is it me or does this game not seem overly complex as is? You have a couple weapons, 4 kinds of enemies and every zombie is just a clone of the last. This really constitues a PAID upgrade? Since when did game developers become novices and it take them that long to make basic modifications to a game? Shit I bet well have new game modes and maps within the first month of the SDK being released - FOR FREE. I'm not spending another dime on this game, I was under the impression it was going to be updated like TF2.

  21. Sweet! on Google Maps To Add 'Friend' GPS Tracking · · Score: 0

    Now if I ever wanted to pretend to be weird creeper, I just buy per-minute cell phone for a few dollars..duct-tape it under a car, and I can now STALK people via internet! Sounds safe

  22. Re:Hopefully there's a silver lining on Judge Rules WoW Bot Violates DMCA · · Score: 0

    Let's not overlook the problem - all of this is because virtual items now have fiscal value. They're supplying the demand

    Why should Blizzard allow people to circumvent their game in order to make money off their players?
