  1. Hear that? on MySpace Down Due To Power Surge · · Score: 2, Funny

    That's the sound of thousands of emo kids crying because myspace is out. I can only imagine all the catch up posts.

  2. Why? on Star Wars Galaxies Emulator Test Server Hits Alpha · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Dear god why would they do this? Are they going to make is suck any less than the SOE version?

  3. Re:It may be digital.. on High Definition Radio and New Content Alternatives · · Score: 1

    Wow so all the commercials will come in so much clearer with bitstreams 4-6 times the size! I have Sirius and my wife doesn't. It kills me to take her car and listen to regular radio. I don't care if it's sirius or xm, to me it's worth it to pay to get rid of the constant ads. I also don't listen to only music, so don't tell me to use an ipod.

  4. Spambayes? on Exchange Compatible Spam Filters? · · Score: 1

    I've used Spambayes at a few sites and most users love it. It gives the users control to filter what they want.

  5. Re:Shine You Guys on Sim Icarus Boeing 777 Handmade Flight Deck · · Score: 1

    Ah yes we should rate schools on their graduation rate...

    They have the balls to get rid of students along the way. Why should they keep students on who can't cut it? Go to a proper university and people skate by just because they're paying so huge sums of money, the uni feels obligated to pass them along.

  6. Uh bullshit... on Governer Dean Becomes Chair of DNC · · Score: 1

    The scream never happened? Is this like the plane that didn't hit the pentagon?

    All the link says is that he had a handheld mic that filtered out the crowd. The crowd was going wild with him and he was yelling.

    "And what about the scream as we all heard it? In the room, the so-called scream couldn't really be heard at all. Again, he was yelling along with the crowd."

    Christ, is it such a bad thing for a politician to show some emotion and not be a stick in the mud?

  7. Re:Codenames... on Firefox Roadmap Update · · Score: 1

    "The Ocho" was also the ESPN channel that the dodgeball competition was aired on, in the movie Dodgeball. That was the first thing I thought of at least. Funny movie...

  8. Not a US exclusive issue on American Airlines Information Gathering · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I lived in London for a year while in college. I had a friend come over to visit. He filled out his landing card and couldn't remember what college I went to. The UK immigration officials pulled him aside, tore through his bags. They asked him a bunch of questions about his employment, schooling and also questions about me.

    Then they paged me in the airport and asked me the same questions to see if he was lying.

    PS, this was in 99, long before 9/11.

    This isn't new, this is someone overreacting and blaming everything on Bush and bashing the US

    Those other two are much more pleasing to my eyes.

  10. Cool looking, huh? on ZAP Smart Car Approved for Sale in the US · · Score: 3, Funny

    If this thing looks "cool" to you, I'd hate to see what wasn't cool....

  12. Re:Good article, and what can you do? on A Thoughtful Look at Indian Outsourcing · · Score: 1

    It's only a matter of time before an Indian will represent you in court. West, a big law book company, is starting to outsource legal writers to india.

  13. Can wait till Quebec leaves Cananda on Quebec Cracks Down On Translated Videogames · · Score: 1

    Then we, US, can invade and make them speak English and be done with this.

  14. Re:Just one word on Better Displays With New Nanowire Film · · Score: 1

    You forgot 'extreme'. I guess to make it an even better product you drop the 'e' and just make it Xtreme.

    Xtreme cyber nano insert product here. sure to get lots of hype.

  15. Mothers Against SWG on Games And Addiction - A Cynical View · · Score: 1

    It was an April fools day joke, but they really did get some email from concerened parents & family.

  16. Favorite quote on VeriSign CEO on Commercializing the Internet · · Score: 1

    At the end talking about ICANN... "What you don't have are a lot of people who understand how to build products and promote markets."

    Just what we need. Marketers on board making decisions...

    "Can we make the text blue or something? Our research shows people searching like the color blue"
