  1. Re:Boo f*cking hoo on Used Game Market Affecting Price, Quality of New Titles · · Score: 0

    I've said to numerous people that as soon as you pay for the game it IMMEDIATELY depreciates its value by half from what is paid for retail. Now that's just me pulling a figure outta thin air, but it's damn close to that...

  2. Re:Lunch on Pushing 800W of Wireless Power at 5 Meters · · Score: 0

    So that's why everything always comes out like rubber in a microwave... Interesting indeed.

  3. Re:Good Grief on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 0

    Yet, I don't post as AC... Thank you Mod, this one got what it deserves.

  4. Re:Good Grief on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 0

    I agree, Charlie Brown. (see post title...)

  5. Re:Zebulon J. Brodie on Maryland Court Weighs Internet Anonymity · · Score: 0

    What about it? My name is Zebulon, you insensitive clod!

  6. Re:China on Obama Wants Broadband, Computers Part of Stimulus · · Score: 0

    The henchman at the end of Austin Powers does...

  7. Re:Second Life?.. on Reuters Pulls Out of Second Life, Army Heads In · · Score: 0

    Wasn't this created like 5-7 years ago? I believe it was called "The Sims" "...

  8. Re:SMOKE on Time To Discuss Drug Prohibition? · · Score: 0

    Sounds like a case for the Darwin Awards. Successfully eradicated themselves from the human gene pool.

  9. Re:Indie on Warner Music Pushing Music Tax For Universities · · Score: 1, Interesting

    This is why some universities are going by way of having subscriptions to music downloading programs included in their tuition. I've got a friend who goes to the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire who has a years worth of paid subscription to some Music Download sharing service (a napster knock off) and it was included in his tuition.

  10. Re:Slashdotted on The Backstory of the Kaminsky Bug · · Score: 0

    wouldn't that in essence... overload his laptop and crash it, rendering it useless?

  11. Re:Oblig. on Teacher Sells Ads On Tests · · Score: 0

    the answer is B.

  12. Ivan Drago on European Police Plan to Remote-Search Hard Drives · · Score: -1, Redundant

    In Soviet Union, Computer hard drives remote search you!

  13. Re:Here Here on BitTorrent Calls UDP Report "Utter Nonsense" · · Score: 1

    I had said this yesterday. It all sounds to suspicious for me to take seriously. It sounds like the MPAA/RIAA are trying to scare people.

  14. Conspiracy Much? on Bittorrent To Cause Internet Meltdown · · Score: 1

    Sounds like another RIAA/MPAA conspiracy to get people to stop downloading via torrent...I'll believe this when i see it.

  15. Re:Oz? on Studios' Oz Power-Grab Revealed · · Score: 1

    I guess that goes to show how much of a sieve I am, i thought the article was about the TV show as well. Guess I should've RTFA.

  16. Re:Great Points - why computers and not PE? on How To Help Our Public Schools With Technology? · · Score: 1

    I agree. I hated PE. I was one of the kids who generally didn't give a crap in Gym class and regardless of how little i cared, i still got A's in the class... Now, what is the point? Joe athlete works his ass off and gets the same grade as I did. It shows no intelligence whatsoever. I'd rather have had another computer class, or a math class or something where i actually had to use my head.

  17. Re:Nerd Gets Cheerleader on American Nerd · · Score: 1

    Kudos on the scotch. And he didn't exactly steal her by being le douche, he just deceived her into thinking that he was her boyfriend, and won her over by being better in bed.

  18. Re:Nerd Gets Cheerleader on American Nerd · · Score: 1

    Evidently you haven't seen the movie... He doesn't pay anything, He dupes her at a costume ball, and sleeps with her on the moon walk pretending to be her boyfriend, Stan Gable.

    Tricky Tricky Nerd.

  19. Re:Nerd Gets Cheerleader on American Nerd · · Score: 1

    Well Aware, Great movie, and my point still stands.

  20. Re:Uh... on The Neurological Basis of Con Games · · Score: 1

    Or you could sue the doctor for malpractice, go to a good doctor and still be rich !!!! This question (outside of the cancer thing) sounds like a Win-Win to me :D

    *end sarcasm*

  21. Nerd Gets Cheerleader on American Nerd · · Score: 2, Funny

    That's alright, Louis Skolnick got some... There is hope to all nerds everywhere.

  22. Oops. on Astronaut Loses Tools While Performing an EVA · · Score: 1

    That would've been one expensive Oops.

    Figure it costs how many millions to get them up into space, just to bring them another tool belt + grease gun...

  23. Re:Strong stuff on Microsoft, Blizzard Crack Down On Piracy, Cheating · · Score: 1

    I may be the outcast in the pirate community. I download the games for my psp and then see if i like them. If i do, I support the developers and buy the actual UMD. So in essence, the only people i'm ripping off, would be the video game rental businesses.

  24. Re:Not elf... on Microsoft, Blizzard Crack Down On Piracy, Cheating · · Score: 1

    I'm no genius, but i thought Zelda was based in Hyrule, not hillys. Hillys was from Beyond good and Evil. So wouldn't the correct term be Hyrulian?

  25. Re:Strange Complaints on Why Developers Are Switching To Macs · · Score: 0, Troll

    yet you still got modded -1 troll... Delivery has nothing to do with it.
