  1. UPDATE COMING TO ROBOTECH.COM on Comparing Sci-fi Starship Sizes · · Score: 1

    For those of you who have missed out, he has been working with Robotech.com for the past few days and he will have a chart dedicated to Robotech/Macross/Mospeada/Southern Cross on Robotech.com this week.

    The section on Robotech.com will feature all-new drawings that were previously unavailable on his current website.

  2. Bah, you're spoiled. on Apple Updates Professional Video Lineup · · Score: 1

    Hex editor? Why, when I was YOUR age, we used to edit them on punch cards by punching out holes and filling in holes with little chads and tape!

  3. Re:Easy to cause trouble with on Beep! Beep! You have Broken the Law. · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think the idea is that they only go after the biggest offenders, so if you wanted to create trouble for someone you'd really have to go out of your way posting thousands and thousands of these stickers everywhere

  4. In Soviet Russia... on Cracker Gains Access to 2.2 Million Credit Cards · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    ... credit cards use YOU!

  5. to quote Gattaca... on Newton's "Principia" stolen · · Score: 2

    Tragic though this may be... it hasn't stopped the planets' turning ;)

  6. Why they cancelled it. on NASA Cancels Moon Hoax Book · · Score: 2

    Instead of a book rebuttal against the Moon Hoax Conspiracy Theory, NASA is allocating their resources towards producing a TV special, featuing 60 minutes of Buzz Aldrin punching conspiracy theorists.

  7. Questions for CmdrTaco... on Mac OS X to Get Journaling FS · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Rob, what kind of laptop is it?

    And will you be writing a review of OSX and Apple laptops in the near future?

    Internet Service Prociders? What are those? Are they for cider rights?

    The IBM Death Star has been defeated! The rebellion has won! :D

  11. Re:No kidding, I'm not the only one? on Palm m100s - A Pattern of Defects? · · Score: 2

    BTW, sometimes the digitizer would be so far off that I'd tap the screen, and the PDA would think I tapped somewhere A CENTIMETER AWAY.

    Screw Palm, none of my friends who bought a Clie seemed to have these problems, so that's what I'm going to replace this shiny metal turd with.

  12. No kidding, I'm not the only one? on Palm m100s - A Pattern of Defects? · · Score: 3

    My IBM C3 (a rebranded Palm V) has gone all to hell. The digitizer in the screen has to be recalibrated almost every two days now! Sometimes I can't even reach the menu bar to recalibrate the digitizer because the sensor is so far off!

  13. Re:good cases on Black Is The New Beige · · Score: 2

    It's not the size of the disk that matters, it's how you use it!

    Step Three.... there's no Step Three! There's no Step three...

  16. Re:We are many, they are few on Dual 1Ghz G4 PowerMac With Extra Yummy · · Score: 2

    Ahh, whatever. If apple can handle serving 15MB Star Wars trailers to tens of thousands of fans, they can handle slashdot.

    Here's an ongoing discussion at Ars Technica about its validity...

    Ever hear of Nadia: Secret of Blue Water? http://www.zero-city.com/nadia/nadia_vs_atlantis.h tml Hey, did you also know that Lion King was a ripoff of Kimba the White Lion? Disney's writing staff is on autopilot, sorry to say.

Microsoft sues Linus T. for circumventing their licensing agreements designed to protect their OS sales... Marvel sues Penny Arcade for providing free comics that take away from their sales... Ford sues feet for providing free transportation... Phillips sues the sun for providing free light and disrupting their lightbulb sales... Et cetera Et cetera Etc...

  21. Ya know, on TuxBox: Rising from Indrema's ashes · · Score: 1

    When you see other soldiers run over the hill and get shot up, normal people would learn not to run over the same hill.

    The complete opposite of the truth. The Firewire group voted against putting the copy control into the specs.

  23. Re:You're Wrong on Robotech On DVD, Ghost in the Shell 2 · · Score: 2

    Macross Plus was a 4 part OAV. And Robotech is a great show. I'm really skeptical of your assessment of Robotech and Macross Plus considering you don't even know how many episodes the OAV of M+ is.

  24. Good lord! on AOL-TW Merger: FCC May Require AIM Compatibility · · Score: 1

    Let me get this straight, AOL allows 3rd party compatibility with ICQ, and in return they get to merge with Time Warner?

    "Good news, Simpson. The court has agreed to turn back the guilty verdict if you just say you just apologize to the Brown and Goldman families"

  25. You're all missing the point. on Intel Creates 30-Nanometer Transistors · · Score: 1

    This is a vaporware announcement intended to puff up their deflating stock. Simple as that.
