  1. Re:Pizza and promises on Casual Games Quickly Transforming the MMO Market · · Score: 1

    The only thing hard core about Crysis is ... was the hardware requirements.

  2. Re:What constitutes libel in England? on In Britain, Better Not Call It Bogus Science · · Score: 1

    Sean Connery could sue you for libel just from what you've stated, under the current libel laws

  3. Re:Mental maps... on On-Body Circuits Create New Sense Organ · · Score: 1

    Being one of the first 5 replies to the summary helps a lot too.

  4. Re:This is the future... on On-Body Circuits Create New Sense Organ · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't the nose be a better choice, most people move their arms when they walk, so you'd be getting all kinds of readings; but if its in your nose it tells you which way you are looking.

  5. Mouse on iPhone As a PC Game Controller · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't mind a mouse app, just have it emulate what the Mac does.

    I actually have my computer hooked up to a TV and it'd be nice to not have to drag the actual mouse over. Oh it'd also have to be free because I don't care that much.

  6. Re:Who is paying them? on Mafia Sinks Ships Containing Toxic Waste · · Score: 1

    But is that the right thing to do?

    I'm willing to bet that there are cases where the company did send it to a responsible waste management company, and then they were over book so they sent it to another company. Eventually it made it to a corrupt place.

  7. This'll go over well on Congress Mulls Research Into a Vehicle Mileage Tax · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Are they planning on buying everyone a GPS device because I just don't see how this study can cost $154.5 Million

  8. Re:Suprisingly light on details for the BBC on Taking Showers Can Be Harmful To Your Health · · Score: 1

    It only takes 5 seconds for your shower to warm up, damn mine takes 2-3 minutes.

  9. Re:Another software service with no way to make $$ on Skype Kills Extras Program · · Score: 1

    It costs $0.2 a min using Skype, ATT would charge $8 to just connect the call and then $1.5 a minute.

  10. Re:Skype is for gays on Skype Kills Extras Program · · Score: 1

    Jailbreak you damn phone, install the app VoIPover3G and enjoy.

    It doesn't matter if you have the Skype source how are you going to get in onto the app-store?
    Apple won't let certain app run over 3G and restricts them to wireless, Skype being one of them.

  11. Re:Skype is for gays on Skype Kills Extras Program · · Score: 3, Informative

    $0.02 a min to China, right? That's all I use it for, its even more awesome when you put Skype on a jailbroken iPhone, Skype over 3g TYVM.

  12. Re:"Outraged Christian bloggers" ? on EA Comes Under Fire for Shady PR Stunts · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Is "Outraged" a bit redundant, I was under the impression that it was implied when talking about Christian bloggers.

  13. Re:Less Lethal... on A Tour of Taser HQ · · Score: 1

    So we need Combine stun sticks, leave them off unless you need a takedown

  14. Re:Less Lethal... on A Tour of Taser HQ · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I see what you did there, you changed the words. Tasers are called less than lethal not non-lethal.

    But I do agree with you they are over used. Personally I think that the officer should draw their gun when they would normally be allowed to tase the perp. If that doesn't work and its save to switch from a gun to a taser they should then do so.

  16. Re:God dammit! on An Early Look At Ragnar Tornquist's The Secret World · · Score: 1

    Are those games really that good?

    I started played The Longest Journey a little while back and I loved the story. The problem was it was my first adventure game, and well I didn't know that all adventure game character are kleptomaniacs. So I kinda got screwed a bit because I wasn't picking everything up. And some of the puzzles had solutions that I would have never figured out if I didn't look it up.

    Should I give it another chance, I'd do a bit better if I actually did pick up everything, I'm more used to game where I can become encumbered or have a fixed number of slots.

    Damn your college was loaded with chicks

  18. Re:How many slots does the card take up? on AMD's DX11 Radeons Can Drive Six 30 Displays · · Score: 1

    No you don't have to worry about that crossfire doesn't support multimonitor setups, if you have two cards you can only use one display.

  19. Where was Crysis on AMD's DX11 Radeons Can Drive Six 30 Displays · · Score: 1, Interesting

    This is cool and all but why would you show off something like this and not be running Crysis, its still the best looking game to date.

  20. Re:Powerfull cards on AMD's DX11 Radeons Can Drive Six 30 Displays · · Score: 1

    They always are, well except for the 9800 which was really just an 8800

    I thought fat people lowered health insurance costs because they died faster.
