  1. Re:Finally on Official - Bungie Departing Microsoft · · Score: 2, Informative

    How would they be able to make an Oni 2? IIRC, at the end of the game everyone on Earth is dead except for Konoko, because the chrysalis protects her from the now-poisonous atmosphere. That'd be one lonely world in a sequel.

  2. Re:oxygen-free sharpie on James Randi Posts $1M Award On Speaker Cables · · Score: 1

    Whaaaa? People actually buy that? Don't they know the difference between analog and digital signals?

  3. YHBT. YHL. HAND. on Big Brother Really Is Watching Us All · · Score: 1

    You have been trolled. You have lost. Have a nice day.

  4. Now that I look on Spotlight on Facebook Groups Affects Microsoft · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I have to agree with you. This "NewsCloud" guy has written a couple sensationalist articles decrying a couple expletives. I doubt he is "just" enforcing Facebook's own TOS agreement - and frankly, if Facebook starts enforcing it in an overly puritanical way, they risk losing members in their target demographic, one that likes to be vulgar and obscene.

  5. Well that's too bad. on Spotlight on Facebook Groups Affects Microsoft · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You'd think Microsoft would have known that a social networking site comprised mainly of college students would feature at least a few obscenities and outspoken and unpopular opinions. Personally I have no problem with a "Fuck Islam" group, but if Microsoft does, does anyone really think that a Microsoft-served ad provides an endorsement of the groups opinions? If it does, why hasn't anybody been all over Google?

  6. Re:Ring Tone Rip Off! on Apple Releases New Touch Screen iPod · · Score: 1

    Sorry about that - I made an error, I should have said that my phone can use any mp3 file as a ringtone.

  7. Re:Ring Tone Rip Off! on Apple Releases New Touch Screen iPod · · Score: 1

    I don't even know why anyone pays for ringtones. I've got T-Mobile and a Motorola phone, and I can use any regular music file on it as a ringtone - I don't know why more people don't know about this. It was quite amusing when I showed my friend how to do this on his RAZR, after he had already bought $60 worth of music ringtones.

    Of course, iTunes songs are DRM'd AAC files. But it's just a matter of stripping the DRM (does playfair still work?) and converting to mp3 (it's a ringtone, so quality loss doesn't really matter all that much.).

  8. Re:Incredible!!! on Evanescent Lasers to Speed Up Data Transmission · · Score: 1

    Coincidentally enough, my neighbors here at UCSB aren't partying for the first time in several weeks. Perhaps this is part of a trend?
