  1. Re:Hmmm... on VP8 Codec Coming To FFmpeg · · Score: 1

    He asked who called them that. The AC up there wasn't right but it is what was posted.

  2. Re:Hmmm... on VP8 Codec Coming To FFmpeg · · Score: 1
    The parent post to the on e you replied to did.

    MP3, AAC and H.264 are not proprietary. They are maintained by international standards bodies and developed by consensus.

  3. Re:Yeah. But Formula 1 is BORING! on 'Telecommuting' In Formula 1 · · Score: 1

    I mean. It's almost as boring as US car races but at least the tracks aren't ovals.

    Nobody watches NASCAR for the racing, they watch it for the crashes.

    Woz, doesn't Apple give you Iphones anyway?

  5. Re:Good. on ASCAP Declares War On Free Culture, EFF · · Score: 2, Funny

    I have one, but it must be broken. Its indicator never turns off.

    Take it offline, that should help normalize its readings.

  6. Re:RRODs eliminated: we removed the red LEDs! on New Xbox 360 S Uses Less Power, Makes Less Noise · · Score: 1

    Couldn't they have dual color LEDs? The GBA had one that turned red when your batteries were near dead.

  7. Re:Windows Phone 7 is great on Windows Phone 7 Lacks Copy-and-Paste · · Score: 1

    Spoken like a true Microsoft apologist. Compare a slightly better version to the original fucked up and broken version (all by the same wonderful vendor) and call it progress as if nothing else existed.

    Heaven forbid you compare it to the competition head on.

    Comparing Microsoft's mobile offerings to the competition is like comparing a "special" kid's grades with those of a Valedictorian.

    But how do you plan to replicate the smell of childs vomit?

    Get someone to vomit in a jar and open the jar and set it under the speaker for the crying track.

  9. Re:Where is the DVD? on Made-For-Torrents Sci-Fi Drama "Pioneer One" Debuts · · Score: 1

    In that box of blanks on your shelf. Download the Matroska file via BitTorrent, and burn to disc with any semi-decent burner app to add a menu or whatever else you want.

    Or, you could use the Xvid version and just burn it to a cd, every semi-decent DVD player should play that as is.

    You also can't duplicate the chance of whiny kids crying for 1/2 the movie (happened to me for XMen 2) or random people whipping out their cell phones during the film.

    Just get a crying track and some random lights between your seat and the screen, that should duplicate those quite well.

    Seriously though you must have a nicer Movie Tavern than the 3 around here. All 3 of the ones around Fort Worth I have been to are loud. (They are cheap though, because they expect you to buy food.)

    Don't throw the baby out with that bathwater.

    A talking baby? Nobody wrote that kids name down?

    It has been on the homepage of ThePirateBay for about a week now.

  13. Re:Trojan for Mac had to appear some day... on Apple Quietly Goes After Mac Trojan With Update · · Score: 4, Funny

    Wearing condoms won't protect you against water-related diseases.

    That depends on where you wear the condom.

  14. Re:Something seems off on Movie Studio Finally Sees the Light On Rentals · · Score: 1

    Price shouldn't be a measuring stick for a movie, but honestly how would Batman get produced well on $40,000???

    The 60's Batman probably wasn't much more than that.

  15. Re:Big fucking deal. on Tornado Scientists Butt Heads With Storm Chasers · · Score: 1

    The message missed by all:

    Slashdoters don't RTFA, and you expect amateurs to do so?

  16. Re:No choice - its FUD on Afghan Tech Minerals — Cure, Curse, Or Hype? · · Score: 1

    I thought the DOD used them first. They got the idea from the British Empire.

  17. Re:Steve Ballmer is an idiot on Microsoft To Add Yet Another Smartphone OS This Year · · Score: 1

    Ballmer also laughed at the iPhone and the Wii. I wouldn't take his advice personally.

    Sounds like Ballmer laughing at an idea means it will work well.

  18. Re:Nintendo may be king of sinking ship? on Nintendo 3DS Early Impressions · · Score: 1

    It is the stylus that makes the DS touchscreen work for games.

    I've still got dickloads of toner

    That doesn't sound like very much.

  20. Re:Thats more porn... on Over a Third of the Internet Is Pornographic · · Score: 2, Informative

    Some porn is as close to art as most movie's showing at the theater. Not the "just porn" stuff but some have the storytelling elements and decent acting. Pirates and Pirates 2 are probably the best examples of that type.

  21. Re:You don't have to use these services on Location Services Raise Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    We could just not put safety labels on things, the problem should sort itself out.

    Well if they take out the penises all that will be left is tits, pussy, ass, faces, signs, and fake webcam drivers.

    Wait a minute, I watched Star Wars Holiday Special first, then Street Fighter, and later I watched BloodRayne.

    If you learn to game the game they offer to promote you to manager.

    Be careful what you wish for, have you played Castlevania 64? That 3rd dimension doesn't always end well.
