  1. Alert ME When Ubuntu/Linux... on Ubuntu 8.10 Outperforms Windows Vista · · Score: 0

    Provides drivers for Lexmark X1200 series or any other printer other than HP and THEN I'll be impressed. Other than that outperforming Vista is a no brainer

  2. Mmm, Fresh Doughnuts.... on Comcast Says FCC Powerless to Stop P2P Blocking · · Score: 0

    Oh I'm sorry but all of this talk about Comcast having a lot of powdered sugar made me think of doughnuts. You know that's what they have too, a lot of powdered sugar and it's called a service monopoly. We pay the prices they demand, and believe me those prices are going to rise now that they think the FCC is nothing more than a bunch of Neutered pets. Nothing to worry about but the bark and meows. Have fun with the monopoly .

  3. Re:What about the victims? on FTC Puts $1.9M Kink in Phone Bill Crammer's Wallet · · Score: 0

    Ok, we're talking about a government organization that is investigating and litigating against another organization with deep pockets. The government is going to post inflated fees for the investigation and utilize the bulk of the funds gained to pay for their fees then they'll tack on more fees for other extraneous costs that derived from the investigation followed up with fees for taking the investigating parties to breakfast, lunch and dinner. So in answer to your questions, screw the customer, Uncle Sam found it so he's keeping it.

  4. OUCH... on RIAA Will Finally Face the Music In Court · · Score: 0

    Will this be the overdue butt pounding for the RIAA and Media Sentry for all their dastardly deeds against poor innocent folks? Will they get their just desserts? Will they bend over and smile while taking it like the hoes that they are? Will their victims get satisfaction from their misfortune? What is the price of a good shredder? How much will it cost to eliminate all data pertaining to Media Sentry's activities and cost/share analysis between the RIAA and Media Sentry? How about Bank deposits for Media Sentry? Will the RIAA and Media Sentry be forced to return all of their ill-gotten gains? Will others follow in the aftermath of this case or will it set a precedent for all other like minded Judges to follow? God so many questions.

  5. I Wish For... on Why Don't We Invent That Tomorrow? · · Score: 0

    Some device to rid the world of greedy lawyers, shifty music and movie companies. A device that will permanently and irrevocably rid the world of the RIAA/MPAA/MAFIAA/IFPI/CRIA. Nothing much just one simple device that will simply wipe them off the face of the earth as if they never existed.

  6. Re:Where's the beef? on Japan's Unique Cow/Whale Hybrid Experiments · · Score: 0

    Aww come on, where's the "GROUND BEEF" jokes at when you need them.

  7. OMG OMG OMG OMG on NBC Still Down On P2P But Plans To Use It Themselves · · Score: 0

    P2P protocols themselves disrupt the Internet by passing bandwidth costs from content owners onto ISPs. Cotton told the FCC in a recent filing, "P2P applications shift the costs of centralized storage and distribution to end users and their broadband network providers." In addition, installing P2P apps "can slow down the processing speed of [consumers'] computers, open up the contents of their hard drives to third parties and expose them to potential copyright liability," the NBC filing noted. Worse, P2P protocols "exacerbate the congestion" that Comcast's RST packet solution attempts to solve.
    OMG is this really true!?? OMG, OMG, OMG, I'm going have to uninstall all of those nasty P2P programs and quit visiting sites like Surf the Channel and QuicksilverScreen and Stage 66, OMFG, I've got to quit using VEOH TV, VUSE, MIRO. Damn now all I've got is the friggin telly. 125 channels of crap that I have to wait on their schedule to watch what I like. SHITE.
  8. Re:that may be true, but... on Net Neutrality Blasted by MPAA Bosses · · Score: -1, Troll

    Another "Drone" spouting the gloriousness of his highness, the mighty BARACK OBAMA. When are people going to realize that whether he gets office or not, he'll follow the money just like every other friggin politician that takes an office. JEEZ NET NEUTRALITY as a whole will be a battle fought not by by politicians but the citizens who demand their privacy and who also demand the services they pay for without the worry if someone is watching our every move on the net. I don't want the government, RIAA,MPAA, MAFIAA, MEDIA SENTRY or any other organization for that matter. What I do with my home computer and net connection is my friggin business and the politicians with the lobbyists on their asses can just kiss my ass

  10. Re:Get a fucking job! on MPAA Touts Record Year For Hollywood · · Score: 1

    Dude, chill. Yeah we're all a bunch of worthless loafers who refuse to pay for crap. You must be a longstanding member of the RIAA/MPAA/MAFIAA/IFPI/CRIA. Because you seem to be standing up for them.
    WHAT A MAROON!!
