  1. Re:I see. on German User Fined For Having an Open Wi-Fi · · Score: 1

    I suppose in Germany it could, i hope the signals they got with the local elections change that shit a bit

  2. whatever happened to wolfram alpha on Google To Answer Your Questions Directly · · Score: 1

    Google Squared couldn't automatically build a Square about whatever happened to wolfram alpha. But don't give up yet! Start a Square by entering up to 5 example items below.

  3. are you telling me on US Air Force To Suffer From PS3 Update · · Score: 1

    the mighty US warmachine does not have a way to work this out with Sony for the specific consoles involved ? seems very unlikely (if this madness continues they might end up sony's only customer so Sony might do well to take care of them)

  4. my policy on this has always been on New Hardware Models Highlight Nintendo's No-Transfer Policy · · Score: 1

    not to buy a wii ... or a ps3 for that matter

  5. lol on EA Introduces "Online Pass" To Get In On Used Games Market · · Score: 1

    paying $10 EXTRA for a used game? more like rofl

  6. only probable problem with this solution is on Defense Chief Urges Big Cuts In Military Spending · · Score: 1

    the surrplus money will only be used to pay for more politicians and commite's

  7. Re:modest proposal on Mpeg 7 To Include Per-Frame Content Identification · · Score: 1

    frame per frame parsing huh ... i guess these people never heard about computers then ...

  8. i think on a global scale on Most File Sharers Would Pay For Legal Downloads · · Score: 1

    Streaming HD movies for 1 euro/pv would increase profits for the drm nazis. I know i would pay for that quality if it were that cheap. They're probably screaming ruin at that number, but charging 5 or 6 euro for a movie you can view once is pretty much unrealistic. Having 5 people view it at 1 euro however might be worth at least a tryout ... or not, can always stick to the past like that fly stuck to that paper (i heard she died)

  9. Re:Civ was my offline game on Civilization V To Use Steamworks · · Score: 1

    same here, i want a retail version with a key that i can activate on steam as well so i can play it no matter what happens

  10. Re:Got it on CRTC Approves Usage Based Billing In Canada · · Score: 1

    30 gig a month is a joke, if i do nothing but install windows and linux, update them both and then install steam and EA manager, download all games on my accounts i'm way over that ... lately i tried getting a multiplayer demo of 12 modern warfare 2 (licensed for only 2 days by those drm-nazis), size? 12 gigabytes , for a fucking demo !!! I don't think you get the meaning of computer geek here, sir.

  11. that's right on Estimating Game Piracy More Accurately · · Score: 1

    Not every copy download would be bought. That's a simple fact of life, you don't even need statistics to understand that. If they want that statement to be true, prices would at least have to be halved and then still it wouldnt reflect the situation accurately. I myself sometimes just download something, just to see how my computer holds up against it, only to delete it after 'testing' or maybe 1 day later. I shit you not, and if i do this, maybe other people do this too. Piracy is not the real problem here, not the base of the problem at least

  12. Re:An observation on Moore's Law Will Die Without GPUs · · Score: 1

    or maybe nothing but a marketing strategy ...

  13. i'm gonna keep this one real short on Australian Gov't Claims Internet Filter Legislation Still In Play · · Score: 1

    fuck 'em , the net is global

  14. good yes way to go on Sony Sued Over PS3 "Other OS" Removal · · Score: 1

    and all that, maybe if i had a ps3 myself i'd use my website to unite ps3 owners, one court case won't turn sony around i'm afraid. But i don't, i have a 360, which seems to be perfectly adaptable, should i want to do that

  15. Re:Who say geeks don't make good lawyers? on UK ISP Spots a File-Sharing Loophole, Implements It · · Score: 1

    is that really a surprise ... next generations intelligence is supposed to increase exponentially, xept for the old-skool ones heheh

  16. best reply indeed on Activision Hit With $500m Suit From Modern Warfare 2 Devs · · Score: 1

    = they loste the best people they have, the people that made their greatest hit. No matter if they win this lawsuit, they lose anyway when it comes to future production. Talent should be nurtured, it's weird that big corporations fail to realize this somehow, actvision, microsoft to name but a few ...

  17. Re:wait, what? on Paper Manufacturer Launches "Print More" Campaign · · Score: 1

    why would you print if you have a perfectly good screen to read on and a perfectly good network to share your documents. This reminds me of this discussison i had with my mother about no one reading books online ... no one their generation does. Why would paper be a necessity other than the necessity to make that guys pockitzes fatter ?

  18. Re:Again? on Leonard Nimoy Retires From Star Trek · · Score: 1

    aye, we shall miss him

  19. Re:France: a nation of warriors. on WhiteHouse.gov Releases Open Source Code · · Score: 1

  21. we all know on Obama Outlines Bold Space Policy ... But No Moon · · Score: 1

    He had to sell his soul as well as the rights to the moon to China last year :p

  22. I hereby predict on Crytek Thinks Free Game Demos Will Soon Be Extinct · · Score: 1

    piracy as they call it is far from extinct. I honestly admit i would never buy a game before i played it. Hell i bought battlefield bad company 2 this week. But that was AFTER downloading, installing and playing the iso from someone else somewhere. This convinced me the game was worth paying for cos i will be playing this for a long, long time...

  23. it's very sweet of you hippies on Microsoft Mice Made in Chinese Youth Sweatshops? · · Score: 1

    to complain about sweatshops, but to the people working in them it's a difference between life and death. No, i'm not saying it's right, but i didn't invent the current economic system either. Blame jp morgan and edison and the old world bankers for that. If you want to close the sweatshops, what alternatives would you propose ? Forcing companies to open up factories in europe and america where they can have the same work done for ten times the cost maybe ? As if that's gonna happen. Get your heads out of your wouldbe-shouldbe asses and get real. Supply and demand is a law almost as unbreakable as gravity. If you can't fix it at that level, don't waste your energy

  24. Re:What? on The Neo-Geo Song · · Score: 1

    did i get here by phishing link or something ?

  25. activision on Activision Countersues Modern Warfare 2 Execs · · Score: 1

    are really turning into software nazi's arent they ... must have been founded in the hip 70s probably
