  1. Re:What about the native americans? on Knights Templar Sue the Pope · · Score: 1

    I really think India needs to sue Native Americans for stealing the term "Indians".

  2. Re:I couldn't find info about Anascape on Nintendo Loses Controller Patent Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    They stopped making true analog sticks a while back with some exceptions. Most of those sticks referred to as analog are digital, but use a coordinate system like older analog sticks.

  3. Re:CFL Color on Making Strides Toward Low-Cost LED Lighting · · Score: 1

    The light from the sun is mostly green. The atmosphere scatters a bit of the blue giving a perception of yellow due to the contrast. If you actually measured the colors with a device it wouldn't be yellow.

  4. Real Newsgroups will never remove alt.* on Why ISPs' "Stand" Against Child Porn Is Actually Not a Stand Against Child Porn · · Score: 1

    www.newsrazor.net / www.giganews.com / www.thundernews.com / A google search of Newsgroups popped up these first thing. Do you think a single one of these services has removed alt.* or ever will?

  5. Uhh, no. on Should the Linux Desktop Be "Pure?" · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think the point of linux is to allow people to do what they want instead of having "important" people tell them what to do. This guy can shove it.

  6. Re:it's just a cover on Usenet Blocking Intensifies · · Score: 1

    Who uses newsgroups that doesn't pay $10 a month for a GOOD one anyway? Even when my ISP had usenet I had a seperate account.

  7. Happy until recently on Do Not Call Registry Gets Glowing Reviews · · Score: 1

    I have my home and mobile numbers on this registry, but recently I've been getting more calls from toll free numbers for various crap. I can't imagine how many I'd get without it though.

  8. Re:How far should discovery go? on YouTube Must Give All User Histories To Viacom · · Score: 5, Funny

    I do NOT want Viacom knowing how many times I've been Rick-rolled.

  9. Re:Mine is 6 on ICQ Starts Blocking Alternative Clients · · Score: 1

    I'm in the 102,000 range.

  10. Re:I had to stop using it ... on ICQ Starts Blocking Alternative Clients · · Score: 1

    102686 here, still got it.

  11. Re:Not At All? on Confessions of a Wi-Fi Thief · · Score: 1

    Any of you ever put a pocket knife in... your pocket? Concealed weapon. Highly illegal. Did you feel the pangs of guilt?

  12. Re:All these DLs will mean headaches for techies.. on Mozilla Outage On Firefox 3 Record Launch Day · · Score: 1

    On every computer I installed this, even without putting thought into it, I deleted the contents of the Mozilla Firefox directory before installing. I can't say it helped or not, since I did the same thing on 5 computers, but I had no issues. 3 were Vista Business SP1, 2 were XP Pro SP3.

  13. Re:datasheet on Denon's $499 Ethernet Cable · · Score: 1

    I've purchased STP before, and it works great in areas I run it. Shielded Twisted Pair is a few cents more expensive than decent Unshielded Twisted Pair. I like fun articles like this, you don't even need to directly express an opinion to make them look stupid.

  14. Re:Pauses when running from flash drive on USB Flash Drive Life Varies Up To 10 Times · · Score: 2, Informative

    I'd recommend 8GB or higher compact flash, plus a CF to IDE or SATA adapter, easy to find on most sites like Newegg. It'll show up as a normal hard drive, and easy to install XP on.

  15. Re:Food prices on SwiftFuel Alternative To Alternative Fuels · · Score: 1

    Sorry, the film? Which is this?

  16. Re:Food prices on SwiftFuel Alternative To Alternative Fuels · · Score: 1

    Don't confuse environmentalists who are worried about the environment in general and "global warmalists" who are after only one thing. Some of them wouldn't bat an eye at an environmental disaster that didn't increase greenhouse gases or carbon emissions.
