  1. Re:Listen up on User Charged With Felony For Using Fake Name On MySpace · · Score: 1

    I can only see this as making an "example" of someone, as there must be millions of fake Myspace accounts.

  2. My limited ISP on In Japan, a 900 Gigabyte Upload Cap, Downloads Uncapped · · Score: 1

    I'm on a 5Gig a month plan, and it seems to suit quite well. Mostly because I don't download anything huge, and our speeds are slow as it is.

    Hard to imagine a 900G upload. My entire HD is only 120.

  3. Re:Easy. on What Is the Best Way To Disinfect Your Laptop? · · Score: 1

    More likely is the chance of you coughing/sneezing/whatever on her, thus infecting her.

  4. Re:Need on Dial-Up Users "Don't Want Broadband" · · Score: 1

    Well, that'd mean a lot, and I mean a lot of websites will no longer be functioning properly, or look right. Not worth it.

  5. Situation in NZ on OMG Did U C What U R Paying 4 Texting? · · Score: 1

    On prepaid accounts in NZ, you pay 20c [NZ Dollars] for each text you send. Bizarrely, even though we have some of the most expensive mobile rates in the OECD, it seems to work out to be even cheaper than the US in some cases.

  6. Technophobia on TV Viewers' Average Age Hits 50 · · Score: 0

    That must have some hand in this.

  7. She must be very patient on What Happens When You Reply To ALL of Your Spam · · Score: 1

    I think many/most of us groan at the very thought of more junky emails in the inbox.

  8. Oh sheesh on A Video Game To Teach AP Level Immunology · · Score: 1

    Like the world needs another Captain Novolin.

  9. What if they discover that on IBM To Help Sequence the Chocolate Genome · · Score: 1

    Cocoa and carob are the same thing? Gasp.

  10. If I recall right on Mars Had an Ancient Impact Like Earth · · Score: 1

    The existing 2 moons of Mars are likely to be captured asteroids from the asteroid belt?

  11. Re:WoW on Children Concerned By Parents' Web Habits · · Score: 1

    It's quite like casino gambling, don't you think?

    And we all know gambling addiction is a major problem.

  12. I don't think it affects me on Surprisingly Few People Collect On GTA Hot Coffee · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This doesn't apply to any versions of the game sold outside of the US, correct?

  13. Call me old fashioned on Real Snail Mail · · Score: 1

    But there are few things as rewarding as getting a hand written letter in the mail.

    Especially if delivered by a snail? Well, maybe not.

  14. Re:Wikipedia = much more traffic than slashdot on Huge Traffic On Wikipedia's Non-Profit Budget · · Score: 2, Informative

    That's pretty obvious because Wiki has, literally, millions of topics covering every possible field. Whereas /. is very limited in scope.

  15. It's just a name on Google Abandons the Gmail Name In Germany · · Score: 1

    Just call it the New Gmail, ala New Coke.

    Oh wait, maybe not.

  16. One thing's for sure on TV and Movies On YouTube? · · Score: 1

    Those of us on slow, outdated connection speeds [me included] won't be watching.

    YT is slow enough as it is for someone with my ISP.

  17. Beep beep bloop beep bloop blip blip on R2-D2 Monitors Your Web Servers · · Score: 2, Funny

    Sigh, it was funnier in the movies.

  18. Missing features on Spore System Specs Released, Creature Creator Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    From what I read recently, quite a substantial amount of content is either cut, or reduced in scope.

    What comes to find first are the rules for dealing with flying/swimming creatures.

  19. Hooray on NASA's Phoenix Finally Fills Oven · · Score: 5, Funny

    We've come along way from the Easy-Bake Oven.

    But I still bet the Phoenix can't make smores.

  20. I'm sick of video game bashing on Games and Music, the New Book Burning · · Score: 1

    It's been going on than I've been alive. Ever since the days of Spaee Invaders and Pong, in fact.

    Always a handy scapegoat, am I right?

  21. Moon tourism on What Shall We Do With the Moon Once We Get There? · · Score: 1

    Hey, when you've been everywhere in the world, why not go off the world?

  22. Re:Chaotic Good and Lawful Evil are Deprecated on Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition Launches · · Score: 1

    Is that for real?!

    The best alignment system was in Planescape, without a doubt.

  23. Re:DNF cannot be completed on Duke Nukem Forever Preview On Jace Hall Show · · Score: 1

    It's not so much the expectations.

    It's been a joke for so long that it's impossible to take it seriously anymore.

  24. Re:Lego Indian Jones? on June Gaming Sees Host of Releases · · Score: 1

    It must be a casino game.

  25. DDR, etc on UCF Studying Health Benefits of Video Games · · Score: 1

    Well of course the only good example I can think of is the physical workout you get playing DDR [the dance pad game, for those who've not seen it].

    And more recently, we've had Wii Fit, which is quite different altogether.
