  1. 3com a patent troll? on Apple, Others Hit With Lawsuit On Ethernet Patents · · Score: 1

    Calling 3com a patent troll? Are you serious or just stupid?

  2. Re:Wonder if AMD plays fair? on Intel Caught Cheating In 3DMark Benchmark · · Score: 1

    At the time, people never seemed to get that the Rendition Verite, while not getting the best benchmarks, looked amazing compared to the crappy Riva. But of course because of that high number nVidia is the one that is still around today.

  3. Re:I get someone else's bank emails... on Bank Goofs, and Judge Orders Gmail Account Nuked · · Score: 1

    Of course they'll stop, as his email has been shut down.

  4. Re:Some counterpoints on Copyright Troubles For Sony · · Score: 1

    American precedent, not familiar with it, but both the US and Mexico are in America.

  5. Re:Serial console on Running Old Desktops Headless? · · Score: 1

    I'm glad someone mentioned serial connection quickly, but if you are worried about power consumption, get a Pentium 4 as far away from your outlets as possible.

  6. Re:GREAT! on Disney Buys Marvel For $4B · · Score: 1

    Mirimax has released some pretty harsh anime translated to english. I think this just gives Disney the opportunity to make a new Toy Story with Spiderman action figure or some crap.

  7. Re:Don't trust anyone on Virtual Bank Woes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't have the definition, but out-of-gameplay stuff is illegal in most countries, I wouldn't worry about only CCP if you were doing a denial of service attack.

  8. Re:Don't trust anyone on Virtual Bank Woes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Griefing is against the Terms of Service and you can be banned for it. Scamming and taking things to which you were given access is not.

  9. Re:There must be a better way on "Smart" Parking Meters Considered Dumb · · Score: 1

    My car was broken into once, they took from my center console about $30 of change.

  10. Re:In unrelated news... on First European Provider To Break Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    The real trick is to allow only encrypted traffic, and pipe it through a VPN port, makes them think you're connected to work.

  11. Spelling is fine, legibility, no on Is Typing Ruining Your Ability To Spell? · · Score: 1

    My handwriting legibility is low, but my spelling and grammar isn't affected. Maybe people who allow themselves to type poorly also write poorly with a pen, but that was originally intentional, right?

  12. Re:Something I've considered... on How To Stop Businesses Storing SSNs Indefinitely? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Its not so much a secret, but by possessing a social security card you've agreed to not use the number as an identifier.

  13. Re:Live by sword... on US Court Tells Microsoft To Stop Selling Word · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'm sorry, that 1991 memo was 17 years old in 2008, and is no longer valid.

  14. Re:GTC are cheaper on EVE Online's Fight Against Currency Farmers · · Score: 1

    Isn't it funny that CCP basically hired people who know how to make ISK to be the farmers?

  15. Re:How lucky we are to bother ourselves with this on EVE Online's Fight Against Currency Farmers · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Hell yeah!

  16. GTC are cheaper on EVE Online's Fight Against Currency Farmers · · Score: 2, Informative

    I often see the annoying spam from ISK sellers, and their stuff is more expensive than the current cost and return of game time cards. I hope they die from this game soon. I know a lot of people who spend extra time making money so they can play for free (supplying the ISK in exchange for the GTCs). It creates a nice exchange system.

  17. Re:OS Check! on How Can I Tell If My Computer Is Part of a Botnet? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Its funny though, I've run Windows for a very very long time, and haven't used antivirus for the past decade. I run checks and my system doesn't pass any weird traffic, there are not unexplainable processes or services. I guess I just don't do stupid things to get viruses.

  18. They should rename them on Microsoft Agrees To EU Browser Ballot Screen · · Score: 1

    All of these browsers are open source, so they could compile them all with new names and icons. They'd technically be Chrome, Firefox, etc. But who could tell while they're installing?

  19. Re:Upgrade Path... on Windows 7 Pre-Orders Top Vista's In Just 8 Hours · · Score: 1

    BTW, DVDs are 5 1/4 inches.

  20. Re:only lil finger! on Man Cuts Off Finger And Eats It To Protest Overdue Wages · · Score: 1

    Now he has no middle finger. He has to just throw up his second finger to the outside of his hand..

  21. Re:Merit on US ISPs Using Push Polling To Stop Cheap Internet · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't believe you. Please show me your water and trash removal bill.

  22. Re:I would hope so on Ubuntu 9.04 Is As Slick As Win7, Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    Since XP? I hate that no one remembers how unbelievably horrible XP was when released. In 2004 the OS was mature and stable. At that time it is about as old as Vista is getting now, but the first year XP was horrible.

  23. Re:hello... on Milky Way Heavier Than Thought, and Spinning Faster · · Score: 1

    If you didn't notice I wasn't an original poster. I was just clarifying.

  24. Re:I haven't read the paper, but... on Milky Way Heavier Than Thought, and Spinning Faster · · Score: 1

    Even more complicated is the fact that the arms are in fact compression waves. The stars do move, but the compression waves rotate tremendously faster than the matter.

  25. Re:hello... on Milky Way Heavier Than Thought, and Spinning Faster · · Score: 1

    So a 250 kg ball on our moon weighs less than a 100 kg ball on the Earth. How relevent the inaccurate measurement it when its wrong? And that is only a very short distance.
