  1. Re:It's not just games on Australians Urged To Spoof IP Addresses For Better Prices · · Score: 3, Funny

    The US-navy deploys those with F18s. Those aircraft-carriers are expensive.

  2. That's ok. on Windows 7 Not Getting A Second Service Pack · · Score: 1

    There are alternatives: http://www.wsusoffline.net/

  3. Re:it will be only a matter of time... on Windows RT vs. Windows 8 Could Burn Consumers · · Score: 1

    That's a ginormous "if".

  4. Re:I never expected my iPad to run OSX application on Windows RT vs. Windows 8 Could Burn Consumers · · Score: 1

    "Sold out" doesn't mean much without absolute numbers.

  5. Re:DDoS Steam URL's? on Steam Protocol Opens PCs to Remote Code Execution · · Score: 1

    Sure, go ahead. Have fun.

  6. Dear US Congress, on US Congress Rules Huawei a 'Security Threat' · · Score: 1

    three words: "Made in China". Good luck of getting rid of this phrase regarding all your electronics.

  7. One thing is missing: on Supreme Court Won't Hear Body-Scanner Appeal · · Score: 2

    Why?

  8. Re:They did the same thing to NHL on the PC on EA Makes Minor Tweaks To FIFA 12 For the Wii, Releases It As FIFA 13 · · Score: 1

    True, NHL 09 was just a slap in the face of every PC-hockey-fan. And then EA had the nerve to cite the poor sales figures to cancel all further PC-versions of NHL.

  9. Re:What happened to freedom of speech on Google Blocks 'Innocence of Muslim' Video In Indonesia and India · · Score: 1

    Relying on public corporate entities regarding freedom of speech is like trusting a kid with watching over a bag of candy.

  10. Re:Bioware is full of shit and why DLC is bullshit on Some Players Want Day-1 DLC, Says BioWare · · Score: 1

    I understand you are pissed off at Bioware, and I am too, but Dragon Age: Origins is not a *shit game*.

    Ironically that was also a few months before EA merged Bioware with Mythic Entertainment (Warhammer Online!). Go figure.

  11. Re:I was hoping for on Joe Cornish To Write and Direct Snow Crash Movie · · Score: 1

    I was hoping this would have been picked up by the Wachowski brothers.

    You mean the Wachowski siblings.

  12. Re:UN takeover must be stopped? on UN Takeover of Internet Must Be Stopped, US Warns · · Score: 1

    With the rampant reshaping of the electoral districts in the US, you can never be sure about that.

  13. Re:Thanks for the "broken" link on Student Makes Real-Life Portal Turret · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah, I hope those guys have enough cash, showing the uTorrent-shortcut in the taskbar of the laptop is a nice way of asking for c&d-letters. ;)

  14. Thanks for the "broken" link on Student Makes Real-Life Portal Turret · · Score: 1

    That added "?fb_ref=fb" isn't some tracking-token for Facebook, no?

  15. Re:no standardization just what we don't need on Apple Gives In, Drops iPad '4G' Tag To Avoid Lawsuits · · Score: 1

    The problem of worldwide LTE-support is that there are like 20 different frequencies used. For GSM/UMTS you just had to support four or five, but for LTE, it's a big bag of snafu.

  16. Re:They've missed the point again, a bit.. on Apple Gives In, Drops iPad '4G' Tag To Avoid Lawsuits · · Score: 3, Funny

    For the sake of their sanity, I hope they haven't.

  17. ReFS won't be in Windows 8.

  18. Re:Next Gen File system on Microsoft Redesigns chkdsk For Windows 8, Improves NTFS Health Model · · Score: 1

    A filesystem with all these features missing must be good, right?
    Right?

  19. Re:Educate the public? on DVDs, Blu-Rays To Show 20-Second Unskippable Govt. Warnings · · Score: 1

    "The service is not currently available in your area." This international network is an awesome thing!

    Sshhh.

  22. Re:I just got back from a deployment to Afghanista on WW2 Vet Sent 300,000 Pirated DVDs To Troops In Iraq, Afghanistan · · Score: 1

    Aww, poor you.

    Who?

  24. Re:He is a hero. on WW2 Vet Sent 300,000 Pirated DVDs To Troops In Iraq, Afghanistan · · Score: 1

    Laughable. :)

  25. Re:Wow. on WW2 Vet Sent 300,000 Pirated DVDs To Troops In Iraq, Afghanistan · · Score: 1

    That's an insult for all real heroes. Being able to operate a duplicator doesn't make you a hero at all.
