  1. Re:well, the economy does suck on Pixar's Next Three Films Will Be Sequels · · Score: 1

    Cars sucked from an adult standpoint, I have met very few who actually liked the movie. I don't know anymore if I ever liked it, I've seen it way too many times to make an accurate judgement at this point. However it was a great move on Pixar's part because children love cars, cars that talk are even better. My son's bedroom can attest to the greatness of this movie. Fortunately Wall-E came out and I was able to quit wondering if I was going to raise some Nascar freak, but he still asks for Cars toys and whatnot.

    I mean change the URL, sorry.

    Add something to your cart on any of the three sites. When you get to the upselling page change "tigerdirect", "compusa", or "circuitcity" to one of the others. It's like magic!

  4. Re:Let me be the first to say: on Office 2010 Technical Preview Leaked · · Score: 1

    Human beings that have previously worked on awful school computers instinctively hit ctrl-s every minute or two! After losing a couple of documents because the thing froze I learned this habit. I feel dumb when I am making a post somewhere and it gets lengthy and I begin to ctrl-s in the middle of it.

  5. Re:Sleep deprivation is very serious on The Dangers of Being Really, Really Tired · · Score: 1

    There are no strategies for dealing with three year olds. I have to re-evaluate my own on a daily basis.

  6. Re:Money Grab on NY Bill Proposes Fat Tax On Games, DVDs, Junk Food · · Score: 1

    People can find time if they try. I work full-time and go to school full-time as well as a single mother to a three year old. I am just starting a freelance career in addition to all of that. I baked my own bread without a bread machine up until about two weeks ago when I started writing papers and doing projects with nearly every moment of spare time. Now that I took my last final today I plan on returning to baking bread. It tastes so amazing and I miss it. Store-bought bread can never beat fresh-baked bread straight from your oven. Most of the time we eat pretty healthy. My refrigerator is full of fruits and veggies from a local produce store that sells it all pretty cheap. It's all in what someone is willing to put into it.

  7. Re:Probably intentional on Microsoft Family Safety Filter Blocks Google · · Score: 2, Interesting

    In my department at work Google cache is blocked but Google itself is not. It's rather frustrating, really, I wish I could image search. Fortunately when we do get those few pictures at the top of the search results when we add "pictures" or "images".

  8. Re:No coffee for me on Beware the Perils of Caffeine Withdrawal · · Score: 1

    It was only because we tend to be portrayed as fat pop-drinking slobs.

  9. No coffee for me on Beware the Perils of Caffeine Withdrawal · · Score: 1

    I'm not a coffee person. I like my tea (I'm American) and when I need to get things done on little sleep (which is often, full-time job + full-time courseload + part-time work study + 3 year old mini-geek + side project = very little sleep) I tend to rely on Amp or at least a bit of Mountain Dew. Or I rely on various caffeinated Slurpees from the 7 Eleven that is two minutes from my apartment, which are my person favorite as a "starter" caffeine drink.

  10. Re:Here's how on How Do I Make My Netbook More Manly? · · Score: 1

    Haven't picked up either of those habits...but I am currently going to school for web development and switching to computer science in the fall after discovering a love for coding.

    What's that make me then? I have tits and an axe wound and run Linux.
