  1. Re:It runs pokemon red! on JavaScript Gameboy Color Emulator · · Score: 1

    I would have thought the port of Donkey Kong Country would have pushed it more. At least graphically.. I guess Pokemon has a LOT more values to keep track of.

  2. Re:Interesting on LulzSec Hacks the US Senate · · Score: 2

    Youtubers are more "Brain-dead Neutral".

    Longcat-hat.

  4. Re:Selective Reading on Tom's Hardware Dissects Ubuntu 11.4's Interface and Performance · · Score: 1

    I've used KDE in one of the later versions of Mint. Is that similar to how it is in OpenSUSE? That being said, I have an OpenSUSE disc here, and it's a long weekend.. Hmm.

  5. Re:Selective Reading on Tom's Hardware Dissects Ubuntu 11.4's Interface and Performance · · Score: 0

    I haven't tried Gnome 3 yet, but Unity makes me want to kill myself. It's so bad and it barely works. What a stinker.

    Wasn't Gingerbread out by the time most countries got the Milestone Froyo update?

    Well, I don't MICROSOFT know how many astro-turfWINDOWS PHONE 7ers there are here, personally, but then I've iPhone never actually seen one. WINDOWS PHONE 7

  8. Bad Analogy Incoming on Why We Should Buy Music In FLAC · · Score: 1

    You can put out a small fire with a hydrant. That doesn't mean you should, however.

  9. Re:Wow indeed on Australian Telco Telstra Complies With GPL · · Score: 0

    Is the GPL legally binding in Australia?

    Don't know. A better question is, would anybody truly care?

  10. Re:Ah man... on Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) Makes a First Appearance · · Score: 1

    Hurd should be a viable competitor to Linux.

    Heheh, good one.

  11. Re:We should follow the example of Stephen Colbert on PS3 With 3.50 Firmware Jailbroken Without Downgrade · · Score: 1

    I was wondering where all my tin-foil went.

  12. Re:Steve held his own... on Steve Jobs Says PC Folks' World Is Slipping Away · · Score: 1

    If they all insist on singing, I don't want any more Stallmen.

  13. Re:Oh for the love of.. on AU R18+ Rating Plans Put On Hold Due To "Interest Groups" · · Score: 1

    However Aussies routinely break the law when they see fit.

    Like what, importing unclassified games? A vicious cycle appears! Command?

  14. Oh for the love of.. on AU R18+ Rating Plans Put On Hold Due To "Interest Groups" · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I feel like this is never going to go through. One hurdle after another, it seems.

  15. Re:To me, it's a question of mobility. on FSF Response To Steve Jobs's Letter · · Score: 1

    I didn't say it was different. I'm just making a wee correction.

  16. Re:To me, it's a question of mobility. on FSF Response To Steve Jobs's Letter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Actually, you can play Super Mario World on the PS2. It's not legitimate in the least, but it's there and it's possible.

  17. Re:Good old joysticks on MechWarrior 4 Free Release Delayed By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    My younger brother and sister (19 and 16) always had the joystick (a Gravis two-button) when we played Jazz Jackrabbit 2 or some stuff on emulators (Gunstar Heroes and Puyo Puyo, mainly) when we were young. But that's because we considered the keyboard to be inferior control device back then. Heh, that's certainly changed.

  18. Re:I'll come pay to play on MechWarrior 4 Free Release Delayed By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    That's basically what Alpha Strike did with any 'mech in MW2 and 3. I never played 4, but I'm assuming it's the same.

  19. Re:Surely you are a troll... on Australian Net Filter Gets One Step Closer · · Score: 1

    Uh, yeah, great. Two of them have more than a handful of users and only one of those gave some form of feedback. Yes, that sounds like a brilliant scientific sample. By the way, I live in Australia, so I know just how big each of these ISPs are. Also, caps lock, cruise control, etc.

  20. Re:Yeah, but... on Australian Net Filter Gets One Step Closer · · Score: 1

    And they'd have to actually trial it on an ISP that has more than twenty subscribers.

  21. That's great... on Time For Voice-Mail To Throw In the Towel · · Score: 5, Informative

    ..if you live in America. I'm pretty sure Google Voice isn't available elsewhere.

  22. Re:Set-top-box on Options For a Laptop With a Broken Screen? · · Score: 1

    I'd suggest XBMC Live instead. Well, once they get TV going properly, anyhow.

  23. Re:author found. Now what? on Twitter Gets Slammed By the StalkDaily XSS Worm · · Score: 1

    So the StalkDaily fellow admitted to creating the worm. Now what?

    Stalk him. You'll know what to do when the time's right.

    What is "book"?

  25. Re:Cat & Mouse. on Hulu Munging HTML With JS To Protect Content · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Do you really believe that all of this content is going to get less available over time?

    What about if your internet goes out and there's jack-crap on TV? Oh look, a HDD full of episodes/movies/whatever. Or.. well this one doesn't apply in this case, as Hulu is US only, but for people with low bandwidth/download quotas, streaming is a total waste. Hell, if I was to stream something, I'd nab a copy of it, just so I didn't feel I was wasting my quota.
