  1. Re:Drop the Disc on Netflix Announces Streaming Only Plans and Higher Prices for DVDs · · Score: 1

    Some TV shows don't have every episode available for streaming. You have to get the discs with the missing episodes if you want to watch the complete series. For example, Angel season 5 episode 10 is only available on disc.

  2. Re:Subscription service on Apple In Talks To Bring $0.99 TV Rentals To iTunes · · Score: 1

    I can watch entire episodes of the Daily Show and the Colbert Report for free on the shows' official web sites. Why would I want to pay for them?

  3. Re:Profit on Military Personnel Weigh In On Being Taliban In Medal of Honor · · Score: 1

    Most of the people I know who are in the military joined before 9/11 so the military would pay for their college tuition. They didn't expect to go to war, although it was a risk they took. I don't think it was idiotic for them to join, nor do I think they were bloodthirsty. I probably would have joined the military too, if I hadn't had other career options available.

  4. Re:He Did No Such Thing on Roger Ebert Backs Down On Video Games As Art · · Score: 1

    I saw that too. At first he used pictures from a Clive Barker video game because he liked the way they looked, but someone commented that the game was not very good so he changed the pictures to Shadows of Colossus.

  5. Re:it's more complicated on Intelligence Density and the Creative Class · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And I feel smugly superior to you because I believe that my preferences for a wider variety of food reflects a more cosmopolitan attitude, which I view as having a more "sophisticated" quality.

    Maybe GP is a supertaster. I know a couple of people who are supertasters. They stick to steak and potatoes, hamburgers with only ketchup, etc. One food at a time. Most vegetables and any foods with more than one or two ingredients make them gag. It's not as though they decided they wanted to only eat a few bland foods for the rest of their life; their taste buds are just really sensitive. The supertasters I know are jealous of people who can eat vegetables.

  6. I tried watching Lost. on "Lost" and the Emergence of Hypertext Storytelling · · Score: 1

    I made it about halfway through the first season. Bass player wants his drugs. Pregnant woman is pregnant. Something about a smoke monster. *click*
