  1. UNO on Honda's Answer To the Segway · · Score: 1

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this yet. The UNO was featured on daily planet about a year ago. It was featured as one of popular science's top ten inventions.

    They didn't invent it! they ripped off some 19yo's idea

  2. Re:kinda like... on Windows 7 Touch, Dead On Arrival · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    woohoo! first post!

  3. kinda like... on Windows 7 Touch, Dead On Arrival · · Score: 5, Insightful

    linux and gaming

  4. isn't it obvious? on Thanks For the ... Eight-Track, Uncle Alex · · Score: 1

    floppy disks! it might take a few dozen but those things always work!

  5. whatever happened to... on Microsoft Hardware Demos Pressure-Sensitive Keyboard · · Score: 1

    ... creating a product to solve a problem? Now microsoft is just creating useless garbage and trying to make it useful

  6. on the same side as the P2P app devs on The Pirates Will Always Win, Says UK ISP · · Score: 1

    both have the same logic in mind:
    we have a great network/protocol with large amounts of legal content! Why should we destroy a perfectly good network/protocol just to keep out the pirates?

  7. Re:Not as bad as it sounds on Smile! Urine Candid Camera! · · Score: 1

    most guys don't walk around the bathroom with it hanging out either

  8. how do you keep rats awake? on The Dangers of Being Really, Really Tired · · Score: 1

    how did they conclude that sleep deprivation was the cause of death? perhaps it was the repeated shocks being administered, or the strobe lights, or the coffee they gave them

  9. smacks of a protection racket?! on Lawsuit Says Google's Sale of Keywords Is Illegal · · Score: 1

    the correct quote from the article is "...smells of a protection racket" - Which still doesn't make a whole lot of sense

  10. perhaps a better question... on Would You Pay For YouTube Videos? · · Score: 1

    ...what google service WOULD you pay for?

    blogger - maybe
    chrome - no
    gmail - maybe
    docs/spreadsheets - absolutely!
    google desktop - maybe
    youtube - no
    picasa - yes
    earth - yes
    sketchup - yes
    gtalk - no
    toolbar - no
    calendar - maybe

  11. potential for flip phone version? on Kyocera's OLED Phone Concept Charges As You Flex It · · Score: 1

    could this not be integrated into today's existing flip phones? It could charge when you open/close it and your battery would last longer. just think how many times some people open/close their phones to view or send a text message - that's a lot of juice that could be collected

  12. ok, but at what cost? on Vista Post-SP2 Is the Safest OS On the Planet · · Score: 1

    I don't even want to know how many "cancel or allow" dialogue boxes they have added to this service pack

    an OS that prompts you every 30 seconds to confirm your actions is hardly user friendly. Not only that, but when users a prompted so frequently they begin to just click through the dialogue box without reading it - thus making the system less secure AND a pain in the ass to use!

  13. maybe he has not decided yet. on Researchers Ponder Conficker's April Fool's Activation Date · · Score: 1

    ...and this discussion is only giving him ideas for what could be done with such an enormous network of compromised computers

  14. Re:Hopefully this means on Windows 7 Lets You Uninstall IE8 · · Score: 1

    hopefully windows live messenger will open your email using your default browser now

  15. basis for claims on State of Colorado Calls Firefox Insecure, IE6 Safe · · Score: 1

    What are they basing these claims on? The number of bugs FOUND or the number of bugs FIXED? If it is the former then I can see how they may have been misled

  16. Automatically identifies top sites? on Safari 4 Released, Claimed "30 Times Faster Than IE7" · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Safari automatically identifies your favorite sites and displays them as a wall of stunning graphical previews. To visit one of your top sites, just click any of the previews. As you browse, Safari identifies the websites youâ(TM)re most interested in based on how often and how recently you visit a site.

    oh great! now next time grandma opens up my web browser she'll be bombarded by porn sites! that's exactly what I was missing in firefox!

  17. bittorrent? on CBS Hosts Ad-Funded TV Series, Incl. Original Star Trek · · Score: 1

    what, no torrent? CBC still wins

  18. awesome! on US Dept. of Defense Creates Its Own Sourceforge · · Score: 1

    I'm really starting to like this Barrack Osama guy! Finally a president who knows how to take advantage of technology and open source

  19. Re:Off-Topic on Mozilla Labs Wants To Monitor (Volunteers') Firefox Use · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    for the same reason linux articles are black and askslashdot articles are grey. It falls under the YRO category. NOOB!

  20. so, to summarize... on Windows 7 Taskbar Not So Similar To OS X Dock After All · · Score: 4, Insightful

    ..the article in one sentence:
    Mac OSX displays a button for each application open, and Win7 displays a button for each document that is open and then groups them by application.

    nah! that's not the same at all!

  21. well at least it's not... on The ASP.NET Code Behind Whitehouse.gov · · Score: 4, Insightful

    ...flash based!

  22. how many pages? on Google Releases Web Security Book · · Score: 1

    the article says 50 and the google blog says 60...or are there 10 pages of dedications?

  23. ZTM = WTF on The Best Computer Mice In Every Category · · Score: 1

    it looks like something my sister has, except hers runs on batteries and it vibrates

  24. Next iPod ad on Microsoft Zunes Committing Mass Suicide · · Score: 1

    Zune: ...oh boy, I knew this day would come!
    iPod: PC (sympathetically)
    Zune: I just need to sit down, oh, wow! *sits down*
    iPod: There's plenty of music out there for both of us. I don't know why you're acting like this!
    Zune: *curls up into a ball* Why go on?! Just let me lie here and depreciate
