    G'day Bruce. Bruce 'ere.

  2. Re:No, this is typical for virtually anyone sellin on What The Banned iPhone Ad Should Really Look Like · · Score: 1

    you'd be able to eat your 1/16th pounder 4 times as fast though! omm...finished. whereas the suckers who buy a 1/4 pounder will still be eating for ages. omnomnomnom.

  3. Re:Interesting on Lenovo Service Disables Laptops With a Text Message · · Score: 1

    Then, you shouldn't tell your asshole friend the secret sms kill-word. He can text away at the laptop all he wants then. (I'm making the assumption here that the laptop requires a specific sms message to be shutdown. TFA doesn't mention what the sms message has to say. surely Lenovo wouldn't allow their machines to shutdown with *any* sms msg.)

  4. Re:SSD = Single Sided Disc on Samsung Mass Produces Fast 256GB SSDs · · Score: 1

    haha I remember that maybe half of mine had 2 holes punched in them because the first hole was in exactly the right spot.

    In a world with predators...

    That's the point, right there. no guns = no predators.

  6. Re:Where's the beef? on Home Theatre System Using Laptops · · Score: 1

    According to its datasheet, it can't do 1080p video output. That's something a generic pc doesn't (not) do.

    Are you crazy? Do you know how many page hits that would generate?!

    instead of rubber bands, which will rot and snap eventually with the heat of your hdd, use elastic cord from your local craft store. http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8240

    finally, it tastes what it smells like.

  10. Re:What's the point? on Google Brings Ads To Games, Game Ads To YouTube · · Score: 1

    Live for Speed has in-game advertising that works well. in the first few beta versions of the game, the billboards had ads for fake products and brands. Then they introduced intel, castrol oil and some brand of racing car fuel tanks. They were on track-side billboards, so were in-place and didn't look stupid. So, the ads aren't useless. I noticed them. I assume that many other players did too.

  11. What an awesome quote on his book cover on Schneier On Scareware Vendor Lawsuits · · Score: 3, Funny

    http://www.schneier.com/images/book-sos-175w.jpg "The closest the security industry has to a rock star" Well, if that's the case, I'll believe anything he says then. I love rock and roll.

  18. Re:Lawsuit on Comcast Floats a 250GB Monthly Bandwidth Limit · · Score: 1

    Now how can I monitor my actual consumption bearin in mind that I have 5 PCs in my home network - can my router tell me how much internet bandwidth I am consuming? every .au ISP (afaik) has usage caps of sometype or another on their residential plans. Many of them have a webpage / script that shows you your monthly consumption. You can then install Netusage FF plugin and you get your current usage, remaining usage, days til anniversary date etc shown in your shown in the FF toolbar.
    easy as pie.
