  1. I blame the slick interfaces... on Blogs Are Eating Tech Media Alive · · Score: 0

    Tech media sites try to appear fun and hip, and people don't want flashy gimmicks when they just want answers. Just look at Cnet, unless you focus on it, it looks like a gigantic mess of text and banner ads. If Tech Media wants to make a comeback, they need to show clear and concise communication, and throw out the distracting crap that they litter the site with. Cnet would be much more popular if it just had a design similar to Slashdot's.

  2. Re:This will just make them stronger... on RIAA Directed To Pay $68K In Attorneys Fees · · Score: 0

    Grandpa? Sorry friend but you are 4 years behind the times. According to Wikipedia Madonna left Maverick in 2004, Confessions on a Dance Floor didn't have the Maverick name. Anyway this is quite off topic.

  3. This will just make them stronger... on RIAA Directed To Pay $68K In Attorneys Fees · · Score: 1, Funny

    $68K, that's chump change to them. I'm sure they waste 100 grand monthly to pay for Madonna's Kabbalah Water. The only positive side to this is that it shows that that there is some good left in our legal system and others will not be scared into not downloading music because the big RIAA will give them a maximum penalty of $250,000 and 5 years in prison. Still they will eventually win the battle, because they have the Benjamin and we don't.

  4. Maya Angelou eat your heart out! on The Computer Virus Turns 25 in July · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Every 50th booting you'd get this (Note "-" is represents a ). Elk Cloner: The program with a personality- It will get on all your disks - It will infiltrate your chips- Yes it's Cloner!- It will stick to you like glue- It will modify RAM too- Send in the Cloner!- Now if I had gotten that when I was a little kid on my little Apple 2, I'd cry.

  5. RIP Power PC. on Intel Core 2 Updates, QX6850 and E6750 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I use to check all the performance charts back when AIM was still alive. Now I really can't care about them. Would have loved to see a G6 pwn Intel and AMD, oh well. Long Live PowerPC. I'll Always Run You!

  6. Re:Horrible Article on 1935 Meccano "Dam Busters" Computer Restored · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    And I don't know how to format comments. [cue Price is Right loser music] Wah Wah Wah Wah Waaahhhhh

  7. Horrible Article on 1935 Meccano "Dam Busters" Computer Restored · · Score: -1, Troll

    <quote>Pratt says Steve Wozniak, the <b>Mac&#8217;s designer</b>, was known to have posters of the DG Nova on his wall.</quote>

    Hello Rob O&#8217;Neill should be fired for this blatent act of noobetry. The Woz didn't design the Mac, he designed the Apple 2! This article could be completely false. Perhaps the Dam Buster didn't estimate rabbits populations but Beaver populations! We'll never know thanks to this lack of professional journalism.

  8. Why are we working for Artificial Muscles? on Springy Nanotubes Could Make Artificial Muscles · · Score: 4, Funny

    People who would need Artificial Muscles are a small minority. We need to improve the lives of the majority people. Imagine the joy that a enhanced nanotube superball or silly putty could bring to the world!
