  1. Why does your kid have an iPhone? on Steve Jobs Recommends Android For Fans of Porn · · Score: 1

    And if they do, they plug it into a computer to get your software updates, where they browse the pr0n anyway.

    Oh and Steve, let me change the goddamn background skin.

  2. They did it to sound legit. on Gizmodo Blows Whistle On 4G iPhone Loser · · Score: 1

    By providing the name, and validating his employment they gain further evidence that it is the next gen iPhone. They could've just said they checked it and it would've basically had the same result without public humiliation. This is a pretty bad oversight and I'm surprised it hasn't been removed already.

  3. Re:Broswers Display Warnings on Network Solutions Sites Hacked Again · · Score: 0, Redundant

    But I really thought it would make my penis bigger. wtf.

  4. Re:Two and a half times more efficient on MIT Making Super Efficient Origami Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    and 10x more possible mechanical problems.

  5. Oh and gov involvment isn't all bad on Verizon CEO Says "We Will Hunt Heavy Users Down" · · Score: 1

    Another thing I don't understand, why doesn't the government subsidize some of the initial costs of fiber or broadband deployment and give the initial company an exclusive say, 5 year monopoly on it then allow others to bid on it and promote options / competitiveness. But hey, that's just me thinking out loud..

  6. Anyone want to tell him China is a real country? on Verizon CEO Says "We Will Hunt Heavy Users Down" · · Score: 2, Interesting

    "We're so far ahead of everyone else, it's "not even close."

    Wiki article -- "List of countries by number of broadband Internet users" (and yes I realize % wise, we have more, but if you look at it that way, South Korea and Canada have than us..

    Although he is right on some of the issues, he is swinging and missing on some of the key issues. The FCC has to regulate somehow, if he as a better method that doesn't just poll in a way Verizon will come out #1 I'm sure they'd listen. But trying to regulate data usage isn't gonna fly for anyone Ivan. We've got to try to be better, so many people don't even have broadband...

  7. Lower part? on Japanese Build a Virtual Hugging Vest · · Score: 1

    Combine this with the GameCrush.com orrrrrr ChatRoulette.com and you have yourself one hell of a party and pants area excitement.

  8. Fanboys! on Star Wars To Air As Animated Sitcom · · Score: 1
  9. Well it is the same thing.. on Microsoft Sues UK's Datel Over Controllers · · Score: 4, Informative
  10. Missing the point. on Fixing Internet Censorship In Schools · · Score: 1

    Guys, seriously? Everyone agrees filtering can be bad and blocks good/legit websites! But think about it from the administrations perspective. You see schools getting sued all the time and teachers getting fired for mentioning different religions, sex, drugs, evolution in Texas. The problem isn't that there isn't a need for the hard filtering, we need to prevent these dumb as shit lawsuits from going anywhere and let teachers teach.

    Parents, take responsibility for your dumbass kid and spank his 17 year old ass when he looks at porn at school, don't complain that he was able to.

  11. Re:HEY now. on Disputed Island Disappears Into Sea · · Score: 0, Troll

    I don't believe in germs either. Do you believe in Ghosts too? Patrick Swayze is still alive, FYI.

    It's not Global Warming it's Global Climate change. That way, when it comes resurfaces, we can blame it again!

  14. Who needs math... That'll be $2.. on BC Prof Suggests Young Children Need Less Formal Math, Not More · · Score: 1

    So you're telling me that anyone under 6th grade will never have to count, ever, not for lunch at school, the change needed for a candy bar? God forbid he wants 3 candy bars and has to multiply, or wants to SPLIT a whole candy bar with a friend and divide.

    Sounds legit, lets take out reading too and let our children just growl at each other until they are adults, then throw it at them all at once.

  15. REALLY!@?!? on Millions Continue To Click On Spam · · Score: 1

    is this why my mom keeps sending me letters from an African Prince with millions?

  16. Small Piece of a 1,000 piece puzzle. on Microsoft To Distribute Third-Party Patches · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's just a small piece of the pie. When they open it up to some other major players I'll be impressed.

    It's not like this is a new concept, get with the times; it is for the security of your OS for christ sakes. Maybe cut down on why OSX or whichever OTHER OS anyone can name has such a virus advantage on you, if even slightly.


    Oh and Yes I understand what Secunia entails, but it's still small.

  17. Karma on RPG Heroes Are Jerks · · Score: 3, Insightful

    At least with some games (Fallout) it affects your Karma when you do these things, steal and whatnot.
    Fable too.. oh and you get attacked for theft.

    BUT it is SO easy to steal.

    Clearly it isn't Intel over AMD, it could support both Intel VT and AMD-V. Don't throw out the hate without justification!

  23. Re:Biased much? on Obama Administration Withholds FoIA Requests More Often Than Bush's · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Oh, well you have to actually put the glasses on to watch the movie.

  25. NO WAY! on The Movie Studios' Big 3D Scam · · Score: 1

    Say it can't be true! Converting 2D movies doesn't really render them in true 3D! Omg!

    On a serious note, aren't most major (American) sports going to this as well? Which is where I really care about picture/3D aspect & quality.. I hope that it applies better there.
