  1. Come on in, the internet's fine! on Elton John Says Internet is Destroying Music · · Score: 1

    It just looks cold

  2. Re:DREAMERS! on New Report On Municipal Wireless · · Score: 1

    Socialism's not so great for making money out of things in the short term, but it's much better at building a better society in general in the long term. Example: Pure capitalism's always been a bad idea, look at the telecommunication companies.

  3. Re:Gaming, gaming... on 30 Days With Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    Maybe I'll get a game console when they can match the experience of games like World of Warcraft and Half life 2.

  4. Re:Neoconned alert! on The Pentagon Wants a 'TiVo' to Watch You · · Score: 1

    I for one...

  5. Re:I for one... on The Pentagon Wants a 'TiVo' to Watch You · · Score: 1

    "We all know that people are unpredictable."
    No they're not!

  6. World of Warcraft on Game Profitability Under Threat · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm sure World of Warcraft is turning a profit.

  7. Re:Mercury Contamination on Australia Outlaws Incandescent Light Bulb · · Score: 1

    But when you add the 4mg included in the CFL, you end up comparing (CFL) 6.4mg to (Incan.) 10mg.
    Which is still great, until you stop using coal to generate your power.

  8. Re:Flying cars! on 12 Crackpot Ideas That Could Transform Tech · · Score: 1

    Could you imagine people trying to drive in three dimensions when two seems to be so tricky?

  9. Re:eBooks on 12 Crackpot Ideas That Could Transform Tech · · Score: 1

    Your idea sounds great, though I would be happy with a PDA with an ePaper screen.

  10. New career direction on Possible Cure For Autism · · Score: 1

    Now I think about it, psychiatry doesn't sound like such a bad career choice after all.

  11. Re:Audiobooks on Rollable E Ink Displays Get Real · · Score: 1

    Audio books are great, until you find one read by Tim Curry
    Though remembering the Harry Potter books in a British accent does give it some kind of charm.

  12. Re:They make the choice. on Blackberry Owners Chained to Work · · Score: 1

    "My blackberry get's turned off when I get home."

  13. Re:They make the choice. on Blackberry Owners Chained to Work · · Score: 2, Insightful
  14. Will anyone care enough? on BBC Download Plans Approved · · Score: 1

    The public outcry will sound much like people not purchasing their product.

  15. To who's moral standard? on Chinese Official Vows to "Purify" the Net · · Score: 1

    "purify the internet environment" to who's moral standard? Maybe we need an Open Moral Standard?
