  1. Re:So this is that then on Visitors To US Now Required To Register Online · · Score: 1

    Woah! You got me.

  2. Re:So this is that then on Visitors To US Now Required To Register Online · · Score: 1

    Ignorant much?

  3. Well... I wanted to believe... on iTunes On OS X Finally Has Competition · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    But found the interface chunky and slow. It uses twice the RAM of iTunes and sounds like crap (when playing the same file in both).

  4. Re:Seriously, WTF? on McCain Backs Nuclear Power · · Score: 1

    Seattle? Portland? Vancouver?

  5. Well, on Your Ex-CoWorkers Will Kill Facebook · · Score: 1

    There isn't a top eight on Facebook... so I guess problem solved.

  6. Re:and corn farmers everywhere on Ethanol Demand Is Boosting Food Prices Worldwide · · Score: 1

    Bio-diesel (referring to a diesel fuel additive and/or substitute) is not the same as ethanol (in this case referring to a gasoline additive).

  7. Re:Wow on Yahoo China has the Worst Filtering Policy · · Score: 1

    Okay, I'm not sure it really matters. But yes, not the law per se, but one of the "corollaries and usages," as Wikipedia puts it:

    "There is a tradition in many Usenet newsgroups that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress."

    So, however I should label it, that's what I want.

    Have a good one.

  8. Re:Wow on Yahoo China has the Worst Filtering Policy · · Score: 2, Funny

    I would like to propose an addendum to Godwin's law, whereby all references to Tiananmen Square with respect to search engines immediately ends the thread, and whoever mentioned Tiananmen Square automatically loses any debate in progress.

  9. Sweet! on What Makes a Good IM Client? · · Score: 1

    So we've got 10 points for "my girlfriend," a smooth 7 points for "intra-office," 12 for the "friends on the cutting edge" combo and 20 for the obvious I've-been-living-in-a-cave question.

    49 points total, not bad at all for a Wednesday afternoon!

  10. Re:Hahaha! Still not! on Wireless Networking Speeds of 540 Mbps w/ 802.11n · · Score: 1

    You seem to be lost. That party is down the hall and to your right.

  11. Re:Newsforge identified as a sister site ... on 2-Year OpenOffice High School Case Study · · Score: 2, Informative

    No, really... they do it all the time.

  12. Good Grief... on Hitachi Goes Perpendicular · · Score: 1

    Between this and Don't Copy That Floppy, I'm not sure how much more I can take....

  13. EMP on MIT's Stata Center Dedicated · · Score: 1

    Apparently they're competing with the EMP in Seattle for most hideous building in the States.

  14. Re:Why not privatize it? on VeriSign CEO on Commercializing the Internet · · Score: 1

    And then there's the real world. Would you like a tour?

  15. Hmmmm.... on Evil Bit Added to TCP/IP Packets · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's going to be a long day...

  16. Re:Confused on Corporate KDE · · Score: 1

    What gap?

  17. Re:Enough on Internet Taxation May Be Imminent · · Score: 1

    Well, I see you have your priorities straight. Good thing we have people like you to help better our education system.

  18. Re:Let 'em die on US Military Uses Spam, Internet Explorer · · Score: 1

    Yes, this is how we Americans think. Since we all think exactly the same.

    You may now continue your "Ha ha, look we're better than the US" masturbation.

  19. Re:Don't Hold Your Breath on Ring Tones Will Save the Music Industry · · Score: 1

    "Americans tend to view cellphones ringing about as enjoyable as listening to a car alarm going off."

    That's why.

  20. Re:Good God, are you Clueless? on WiFi Triangulation · · Score: 2, Funny

    I could be wrong, but I thought the point of warchalking was to mark your _own_ wireless network so that others could use it.

  21. Re:Skip Intro on Online Marketing for an Indie Band? · · Score: 1

    I would have to agree... I closed the window as soon as I saw/heard your flash animation start. No thanks.

  22. Re:HELL NO! on Low-Tech Cell Phone Blocking · · Score: 1

    Boy, you are a _nasty_ one, aren't you?

    It was a simple question, I was not calling for the bitches to come out of the woodwork and start screaming.

  23. Re:HELL NO! on Low-Tech Cell Phone Blocking · · Score: 1

    What kind of phone do you have? All of the phones that I've tried with vibrate I can't feel when they're on a belt clip... and I'm not about to put my phone in my pocket... that hurts when I sit.

  24. Re:What about external support? on Establishing the Maximum Speed of a CD-ROM Drive · · Score: 2

    Or how about you read the article (Google Cache, perhaps?)... you'll find that they suggest using multiple lasers or a CCD to read 100 tracks at a time.

  25. Re:If everyone has a cell phone. on Wireless Providers to Pay Universal Service Fees? · · Score: 1

    I do believe that calls from cell phones work with together with POTS.

    Isn't it correct that once your call reaches the nearest cell tower, it travels over POTS to get the cell tower of the person you are calling?
