  1. Re:why? on New Lossless MP3 Format Explained · · Score: 2

    But the difference here is that the smaller vehicle is still towing the bigger vehicle around with it whereever you drive.

  2. Very evil. on Researchers Test Whether Sharks Enjoy Christmas Songs · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sharks with frickin' christmas tunes stuck in their heads...?

  3. Re:huh? on iGoogle Users Irate About Portal's Changes · · Score: 1

    To see the differences, log in to your igoogle, then change the .ca (or whatever your TLD is) to a .com, and vice-versa, in the address bar.

  4. EeePC sized device with touchpad keyboard on A Turning Point for Touch Screens, Says the NYT · · Score: 1

    Would make it a good little e-book if you wanted too, and the primary display doesn't get icky finger prints. The keyboard, or secondary screen, could have a texturized surface so that the "keys" have a bit of feel to them too, and maybe use e-ink for battery life.

  5. Re:I don't get it on NYT Explores the World of Internet Trolls · · Score: 1

    Games.

    Oh, let me clarify: modern games that look all pretty and stuff. Tux racer doesn't quite count.

    Sure, not linux's fault but that's too bad.

    (Dual-boot box is superior to single-boot boxes btw.)

  6. Re:KickOff on What To Expect In KDE 4.1 · · Score: 1

    Then right click and switch it back to the old style. It's not like they hid it off in some hard to find setting box deep in the bowels of your computer.

  7. Re:TFS is a lie? on What To Expect In KDE 4.1 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    See, the biggest problem I see is the website(s) didn't know what was going on. Everyone who paid attention to the details and follow these kinds of things knew this. But then you have people who see "released" and look at the shiny screenshots and download it thinking it's the next best thing.

    KDE needs a marketing team. I'm talking about someone who can think on the same level as Joe Public. People that can get shiny pages like plasma.kde.org up-to-date.

    Nonetheless, having used KDE 4.0 off and on and now the RC for 4.1, there is a huge amount of potential here and I can't wait to see where they go with this.

  8. Re:NVidia issues? on What To Expect In KDE 4.1 · · Score: 1

    That sounds like more of an issue with your shitty driver than with KDE. Why should FOSS projects have to be restricted in what they can do because some people insist on hardware with poor support?

    Sorry, my crystal ball was broken when I bought my 8800GT (that worked just fine elsewhere, including with KDE 4.0...)
