  2. Re:My experience with Racer.... on F1 Simulators Revealed · · Score: 1

    Hopefully the robotic arm setup doesn't simulate crashes... 15 minutes of flipping around randomly doesn't sound like fun.

  3. Re:Why the plug for "24?" on Sony's Blue-Violet Laser the Future Blu-ray? · · Score: 1

    It should be fairly obvious to anyone vaguely familiar with the premise of "24" that a season is 24 hours long (24 1-hour episodes). It was probably picked to state the fact that it can hold 24 hours of HD video, without getting into more details or mentioning a show with variable length seasons.

  4. obligatory Seinfeld reference on Revenge of the Cable Customer · · Score: 5, Funny

    JERRY: Well, said he was waiting about two hours. Seemed a little put out.
    KRAMER: Oh, was he? Was he? I guess the cable man doesn't like to be kept waiting.
    JERRY: You don't seem too bothered by it.
    KRAMER: You remember what they did to me ten years ago? "Oh, we'll be there in the morning between nine and one", or "We'll be there between two and six"! (quiet anger) And I sat there, hour after hour, without so much as a phone call. Finally, they show up, no apology, tracking mud all over my nice clean floors. (malice) Now, they want me to accommodate them. Well, looks like the shoe's on the other foot, doesn't it?
    JERRY: Boy, I've never seen you like this.
    KRAMER: Oh, you don't wanna get on my bad side.
