  1. Re:Me thinks on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 1

    Some of the Merc AMGs perhaps. They have insanely powerful engines on an otherwise useless car. I wouldn't be surprised if the brakes are crap.

  2. Re:Me thinks on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 1

    If this is indeed the case, putting bigger brakes on the cars will just increase the cost of ownership for those of us who _can_ drive.

  3. Re:No thanks on YouTube To Allow Video Rentals · · Score: 1

    Hulu is ad supported. Youtube is charging money. Hulu finds it profitable to discriminate because some regions bring them less ad revenue than others. Youtube on the other hand will profit equally from countries other than the US.

    They don't hate cars, you exceedingly small prick, just the exceedingly small pricks that use them to break the law. Perhaps this is too difficult for a person with such an exceedingly small prick to understand.

    People using their pricks for more than they were intended cause posts like parent

    Well I'll be damned. In any case, I blame the media for my stupidity :-D And I think my comment was the cause for your down-moderation. My bad!

  7. Re:The Year of the Linux on the Desktop? on Chinese Pirates Launch Ubuntu That Looks Like XP · · Score: 1

    No no my friend. XMMS used to look like winamp. Then winamp moved the goalpost.

    Not quite there yet. Now all we need to do is get Open Office to look like MS Office 2007 and Amarok/XMMS to look like winamp and ...... GO ylmf GO !!!

  9. Re:why? on Chinese Pirates Launch Ubuntu That Looks Like XP · · Score: 3, Interesting

    From what I can see, it doesn't just look like a windows machine, (unlike most windows themes for ubuntu) the GUI behaves like windows too. This would mean people who were earlier using Windows would be a bit more comfortable using ylmf's ubuntu rather than the regular one.

  10. Re:Someone else who wants somethign for nothing on B&N Nook Successfully Opened · · Score: 1

    So leave the device open to modification. Use the mac address or imei or whatever else to restrict access to only book purchase sites. How hard could that be? (No sarcasm/offense intended. My knowledge of ebook readers and 3g is rather limited)

  11. Re:Free internet? on B&N Nook Successfully Opened · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They keep locking it down. We keep opening it up. We wouldn't have this problem if all devices were "open" in the first place.

    Hell even the spell check in Firefox accepts it as legimit. If you're going to be one of those annoying grammar nazi pricks, the least you could do is be right.

    I have nothing to say/do here. The joke seems to have cracked itself this time around.

    This move will ensure easier availability of their phone around the world, unlike the i-phone which needed to be jailbroken in countries where it wasn't officially launched.

    What about ./ers and _their_ "mobility problems"?

    Just a myth. We just don't want to leave the basement.

    Clever. Clever. I notice how you say "the basement" suggesting there's a chance that said basement might actually belong to you.
