  1. Re:"Slated for Late Summer 2009" on Earliest LHC Restart Slated For Late Summer 2009 · · Score: 1

    I predict that the LHC won't be fired up for real until 2012.

  2. Re:Third world on US Supreme Court Allows Sonar Use · · Score: 1

    If I was a Chinese admiral, I'd be looking into ways to harness whales to tow my subs towards the American coast right about now.

  3. Re:What? on US Supreme Court Allows Sonar Use · · Score: 1

    That doesn't mean it can't happen again.

  4. Re:Don't use Google Argentina? on Argentine Judges Disappear Celebrities From Internet · · Score: 1

    He is now.

  5. Re:Don't use Google Argentina? on Argentine Judges Disappear Celebrities From Internet · · Score: 4, Funny

    You should have posted as AC

  6. Re:Why is there a browser in the music player? on iTunes On OS X Finally Has Competition · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I know some people actually like iTunes but I really have problems wrapping my brain around it. One thing they tend to have in common is limited experience with good media players like Winamp and Amarok. Even Windows Media Player stomps all over iTunes in terms of usability.

    It's really a matter of taste (or lack thereof). The one time I tried Windows Media Player it confused the hell out of me and I went back to iTunes. iTunes may not have all the advanced features, but to me the interface is more intuitive. All I want to do is play my music.

  7. Re:Will this work? on Company Announces $30,000 Prize For Solving iPhone Game · · Score: 1

    Considering the number of iPhones that have been sold, selling OVER NIIIINE THOUSAND copies of an app shouldn't be that hard.

  8. Re:Expansion on Spore Expansion Announced, Another Coming In 2009 · · Score: 1

    If you pay EA $200 and buy all the expansions, Spore will finally work like it was meant to. Hurray!

  9. Re:I don't understand why it's bad on Sony Announces "Qore" Playstation Bundle · · Score: 1

    So does anyone at Sony actually know how to spell?

  10. Re:Oh goodie! on Verizon, Comcast Say They Are P2P Friendly · · Score: 1

    It will cost you your soul. Just sign on the dotted line for unlimited bandwidth and no more throttling!

  11. Re:Right... on Verizon, Comcast Say They Are P2P Friendly · · Score: 4, Funny

    Exactly. ISPs are friendly to P2P traffic like alligators are friendly to chickens.

  12. Re:Oh come on on New Urinal-Based Video Game Makes a Splash · · Score: 1

    It may be number one, but it'll never appear on the pro-gaming circuit, though that would be hilarious. I can see the headlines now: "Professional Pee Player Arrested for Doping" :P

  13. Re:wtf? on Dragon Quest IV Coming to the DS · · Score: 0, Redundant

    "News for nerds, stuff that matters."

    This hardly qualifies as "stuff that matters". If I cared about this sort of thing I'd be reading a gaming site. Less news for nerds, more stuff that matters please.

  14. Re:masturbation in 3,2,1 on 66% Apple Market Share For Sales of High-End PCs · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    *fap, fap, fap*

  15. Re:Those with money to burn... on 66% Apple Market Share For Sales of High-End PCs · · Score: 1

    Despite all the hate, Apple is making a ton of money. I'd love to have a slice of that pie.

  16. Re:It's a biological fact on Nintendo Suffers $21M Patent Infringement Award · · Score: 1

    IF they even did anything to begin with.

  17. It's a biological fact on Nintendo Suffers $21M Patent Infringement Award · · Score: 1

    If you release some new piece of technology and it's successful, hell, if it just gets good press coverage, then you will be sued by another company that built the same thing you did... but five years ago. On a related note, I have $5 that says someone sues over the LHC before the year ends.

  18. Re:"Do we have wormsign?" on 2 Finds Add To Giant Earthworm Science In Northwest · · Score: 3, Funny

    If they're not big enough to ride, then they're not giant worms.

  19. Re:I've heard this computer is so fast on Half-Petaflop Supercomputer Deployed In Austin · · Score: 3, Funny

    Finally! A computer that can run Crysis with full graphics!

  20. Cold Fusion on The Century's Top Engineering Challenges · · Score: 1

    Fusion pow'r is the
    only goal on that list that is
    worthwhile. Like a pie.

    Too bad it is too
    far-fetch'd. Solar power has
    a much better chance.
