  1. RIAA wins! on ISP Bans RIAA to Protect Its Customers · · Score: 1

    "Information Wave will also deploy peer-to-peer clients on the Gnutella network..."

    So, on the flipside, people also risk downloading fake mp3s if they don't check the length of the song.

  2. Re:Why are some people better Cooks? on Ask Alton Brown How Food+Heat=Cooking · · Score: 1

    Maybe some kids are spoon fed and thus are prone to have prepared foods.

    Other kids are left spoon in hand to make a mess and somehow feed themselves in the process. They grow up to be cooks.

  3. Machinima Improv Theater on Machinima Festival and News · · Score: 1

    I always thought they should have live online machinima puppet shows where audience members could shout out suggestions for scenes.

    That way, when they suggest that an accountant and his dog visit a volcano in Hawaii. You could actually see an accountant and his dog at a volcano in Hawaii. Or the machinima version of it.

  4. Maybe a selling point of eBooks? on HP Must Defend Half-Empty "Economy" Ink Cartridges · · Score: 1

    If you want to read something on the run maybe downloading it to a portable hi-rez screen might be cheaper?

  5. Killer Aibo on Teach An Old Aibo New Tricks · · Score: 1

    It's only a matter of time before someone duct tapes a knife to one of these guys and programs it to kill.

    Maybe then Sony will have incentive to have the Robotic Laws put into all the Aibots.

  6. Non-violent games on The Sims Overtake Myst · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's weird that the top games are these non-violent, non-gorey games. But, the violent games far outnumber the non-violent ones.

    That's unless you like trapping your sims in small shacks and setting fire to them.

    Oh, and Mortimer punched me when I stole his wife.

  7. It sounds cool... on Lineage Beta Released For Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    As a mac owner, I've little experience in these games. I'm gonna try it.

  8. Alias on David Duchovny In The X-Files Finale · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    In the same timeslot, but totally kickin ass is "Alias."

    It's like Felicity with double-crossin' spy thriller stuff. Plus the chick is hot and uses hi-tech spy gadgets.

  9. Re:Replay ads on TiVo Watches the Super Bowl · · Score: 0, Funny

    What process is going on in the heads of these people?

    "Ooooh, breasts."

  10. Bigger = slower? on Intel's Big Chip · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't it take longer for signals to get from place to place on a bigger chip?

  11. A Beautiful Mind... on A Beautiful Mind · · Score: 0

    in a Nutshell.

  12. AKIRA!!! on Orbiting Lasers for Hydrogen Power · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    That crazy Tetsuo kid will probably take control of the orbital laser and start shooting up NeoTokyo.

  13. Re:Another by Joe H. book on The Forever War · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Well "all my sins remembered" is a quote from Hamlet's "to be or not to be" soliloquy.

  14. Re:This is not flamebait reply on The History Of FreeCiv · · Score: 1

    I remember Empire. It was multiplayer by swapping floppies around.

  15. Re:HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! on XBox Released · · Score: 1

    Now Gate's will finally understand failure!!!!

    >Oh, that's not fair. He understands it, alright. >I've got one word for you: "Bob".

    Or wince.

  16. Make sure it removes the director's name too on Convert Movies From R to PG13 to PG On The Fly · · Score: 1

    Especially if these config files aren't made by him. If it isn't what the director intends, it isn't the real film.

  17. Re:Organised religion quote on God's Debris · · Score: 1

    The truth is that heroin is the opiate of the masses.

  18. Re:A slightly differant question on How Did You Become a UNIX Administrator? · · Score: 1

    Surely, your college has computer centers and help desk positions. That's where you'd start.

  19. Re:BA in English and Religion ... Anyone else ... on How Did You Become a UNIX Administrator? · · Score: 1

    I have a BA in Theatre Arts. I came to New York to be an actor. I was always good at computers but I never thought I'd get a job in that field. That would be too sensible.

  20. I was a temp on How Did You Become a UNIX Administrator? · · Score: 1

    I did data entry. Then became the office "computer guy". Then was officially tech support. Then they bought a linux server.

    I admin it because I had all this experience playing on unix in college and then on panix and on bway.net, but only as a user.

    The only other unix was this old iMac that I put linuxppc on.

  21. I'll never use a modem again. on Dump Broadband, Dig Out Your Modem! · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I could tolerate the net at 56k. Plus, the phone lines in my area are so noisy that you'd hardly ever get 4800 baud on them.

  22. Re:Why Titanium? on GeForce3 Titanium Reviews · · Score: 1

    We need the Titanium Geforce to keep the fight going against the evil Zoltan from the Crab Nebula.

  23. I loved it. on Star Trek: Enterprise Reactions? · · Score: 1

    It's great to know that all women in the future, alien or not, are so hooty-licious. I can't wait to see more.

  24. Re:About private jet economics and lifestyle on Oh, Your Private Jet Is Just Subsonic? · · Score: 1

    Well, celebrities should definitely avoid the little planes and stick to first class. Learn from the Big Bopper!

  25. Re:the problem is... on Future of Digital Music in Doubt · · Score: 1

    An industry spokesman would argue that each cd also pays for a dozen or more failed releases.
