  5. Re:I'd love a breakdown of legal vs. illegal files on BitTorrent Accounts for 35% of Traffic · · Score: 1

    and my point was that you don't need bittorrent to see that crap. there are any number of public web sites with such "information"

    "How about controversial documents, like arguments against the authenticity of the moon landing, or against evolutionary theory?"

    I'm sorry....is someone trying to ban these? I think the biggest problem people who propose those ideas face is that their ideas are drivel.

    Sorry, how does a prayer that something happens constitute a threat? No where in that post did she say she was going to do it or encouraging anyone else to do it. (Unless you count God) She was merely expressing a hope that it does. I don't share her opinion - I don't think Shrub is an evil person - just simple minded and easily manipulated - which is reason enough to get him the hell out of office.

    Heh....same difference according to recent reports.

  9. Re:backup the songs? on U2 iPod: Any Color You Want, As Long As It's Black · · Score: 1

    I don't know if anyone will bother checking this thread again but I might as well try to make this clear. When you hook up the IPod it shows up in Itunes. When it does, you can create playlists (and burn them) and copy music to/delete music from.

  10. Re:Just in time! on Updated AmigaOS4 SDK Available · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Did you have a point or are you just bitching? I just love you guys who come on here and act like anything that isn't a mainstream OS is a mortal insult to you.

    Mebbe should change handle to "Occasionally cranky geek" eh?

  12. Re:backup the songs? on U2 iPod: Any Color You Want, As Long As It's Black · · Score: 1

    Just make a playlist under itunes and burn the playlist. It's not rocket science.

  13. Re:backup the songs? on U2 iPod: Any Color You Want, As Long As It's Black · · Score: 1

    There are any number of 3rd party utilities for OSX/Windows that allow you to transfer the songs off the IPod. Also Itunes allows you burn cd's of your songs.

    Your examples:
    "I'm gonna murder all you fags and laugh as you burn in hell"

    Nice logic sparky.

  16. Re:Let me get this straight on Stolen Honor: Sinclair Under Fire · · Score: 0, Troll

    You have to go to a theater or buy/rent the DVD for Farhenheit 911. This crap is being sent over PUBLIC airwaves. I'd say that's a big difference.

  17. Re:Plain old MMO on The Business of Paragon City · · Score: 4, Informative

    If you've got a good team of people to play with it really changes things. Last night I had the best time ever in the game with a group of folks I'd never met before. Had so much fun we're going to form a Supergroup.

    Ah...but if copyright law didn't exist the GPL would'nt need to either :)

  19. Re:Uh huh... on IBM Shipping More PCs with Trust Chips · · Score: 1

    And which did nothing to stop the real pirates - copy protection has always been like that. An inconvience (at best) to legitimate users and a minor inconvience (at worst) to software pirates.

  20. Re:That's actually true, though. on Campaigns Wary About October Surprise · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I still play games that are several years old. Will Steam support HL2 6-7 years from now? I doubt it.
