    Mine goes up to 11.

  2. Re:Apple on Consumer Reports Can't Recommend iPhone 4 · · Score: 1

    I have a Blackberry 9700, where does that put me?

  3. Re:Zynga are evil on Zynga Investment May Herald Google Games · · Score: 1

    PayPal has locked the accounts of me and a few of my friends for bullshit reasons and refused to do anything about it. Together we've lost close to 5,000USD.

    ...still required a Facebook login so I deleted it.

    Yeah, where else would they get the info to sell to their marketing partners.

  5. Re:Google's Defense of Flash on Zynga Investment May Herald Google Games · · Score: 2, Informative

    This probably sheds some new light into Google's sudden defense of Flash blog post from June 29

    No, no it doesn't. Why do you people refuse to accept that HTML5 is simply not ready for primetime and get over it. No, it's got to be some secret plot from microapplegooglesoft.

    I believe in some english speaking countries businesses are considered "plural".

    Google checkout I believe.

  8. Re:Bumpers on Apple Hires Antenna Engineers. Really. · · Score: 5, Interesting

    They did the testing with the iPhone 4 inside an iPhone 3GS case... so no one would know what it was.

  9. Re:as common as $4 coffees on Apple Hires Antenna Engineers. Really. · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I wasn't sure what point was being made either. :\

  10. Re:Cheap or low power? on Nintendo 3DS GPU Revealed · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Doesn't answer the question though!

  11. Re:Flamebait on Google Reportedly Ditching Windows · · Score: 1

    Implying they use anything but Chrome internally.

  12. Re:Damn it. Be scientific on New Estimates Say Earth's Oceans Smaller Than Once Believed · · Score: 1

    Except that there isn't really any benefit to using SI over Imperial measurements. The benefit is to everyone using the -same- measurement system regardless of what it is. That being said, with most of the world using SI, that would be more logical...

  13. Re:How about some metric figures? on New Estimates Say Earth's Oceans Smaller Than Once Believed · · Score: 1

    No one uses half of those measurements, and I don't think any of our measurements are based on metric since they're far older.

    And things like this are why it is acceptable for Word 2007 to take the longer to open on my quad core windows 7 box as Word 3 did on my 25MHz windows 3.1 machine.

  17. Re:3G on Testing and Mapping a Cellular Data Network? · · Score: 1

    Most of the cell modems are made by Sierra Wireless and they've been pretty good about making sure things work in linux, at least in my experience. I've got a 598 USB Sierra card from sprint and it works fine as a backup connection for my headless Arch server.

    Thanks, slashdot just made me feel bad about being single.

    The GP is obviously asking knowing (assuming) the OP is a guy. But you knew that.

  20. Re:Nice try on Google Stops Selling Its Own Phone · · Score: 1

    Everywhere I've tried in tampa bay (Homosassa Springs, Hudson, New Port Richey, Clearwater, Saint Petersburg, Tampa) T-Mobiles EDGE has been faster than AT&T's 3G.

    How is that sexism?

  22. Re:Painful on Steam Client for Mac Launches, Linux Client On the Way · · Score: 1

    I think this is a Mac-only issue, and almost a non-issue because OS X by default doesn't create case-sensitive filesystems.

  23. Re:What? on Steam Client for Mac Launches, Linux Client On the Way · · Score: 1

    Me either. That being said I have half a dozen terminals open all the time on my MBP.
