  1. Re:I own an apple II on How Do You Get Your Geek Nostalgia Fix? · · Score: 1

    I grew up with a //e and yea I drooled over the //c, on your disk comment, those 5.25 inch disks are pretty resilant, my parents saved all their personal doc's disks when they sold the //e back in 1993 and here I go be-boppin with a //c in 2010 and all of them read just fine

  2. Re:Not a moment too soon! on Microsoft Pulling the Plug On Windows XP In Three Years · · Score: 1

    totally depends on the PPC G5 10.5 no problem G4 10.5 eh maybe, my 9600 apple said fuck you less than 2 years! (though if you fuck with it long enough you can get 10.2 on there, but why bother it runs brand new debian ppc and xfce faster than my work computer deals with XP just on 256 megs and a "upgrade" to a ati 7000

    its a //c for easy storage in my small apartment

  4. Re:More luddite whining... on Congress Voting To Repeal Incandescent Bulb Ban · · Score: 1

    no it didnt, it just means I need to flush twice to get that turd down so I acually use a bit MORE water with the low flow compared to a 3 gallon model, and since it has to replace that displacement I get piss water splashed all over the fucking bathroom

  5. Re:CFL are no savings - bzzt wrong... on Congress Voting To Repeal Incandescent Bulb Ban · · Score: 1

    heh a guy going by frosty piss is telling me the value of my thought, ok pissface how about you prove me wrong rather than troll me

  9. Re:Believe it or not... on Congress Voting To Repeal Incandescent Bulb Ban · · Score: 0

    yea they have to, but they cant bother to show up for 1 thing two thirds of the time and the other third are too busy arguing semantics of how much pork they are going to put in their pocket , er I mean bring to their state.

    I hope the system fails, every single bit of it has been tainted and its been time for a reboot

  10. Re:Fanless doesn't seem to be an accurate descript on The Fanless Spinning Heatsink · · Score: 1

    yea filters get clogged, and I really dont by the immunity thing, yes it may not get compacted tween a fan and the top of a heat sink but it seems like the fins of this thing would be just as easy to clog since your passing dirty fluid tween small spaces

    Yea these things pop up every now and again, there was some hitting the news not to long ago... News editors are too dumb to figure out patio table + solar cell = charging station and are constantly impressed by this.

  16. I dunno on Why SOE Decided To Cancel Star Wars Galaxies · · Score: 1

    maybe cause it blows?

    I remember my time in SWG, as one of the shortest races, I could never fucking see anything just the asses of the 100000000 pets and blades of grass, or what about all those empty cities with 3 people maco dancing in the bar? good fucking times there!

  17. Horsecrap on 30th Anniversary of Donkey Kong · · Score: 1, Interesting

    The man who made up zelda based on childhood memories of exploring the countryside sure as hell did not base donkey kong on an American cartoon, go on youtube search for "history of video games" there is a g-4 show where he shows the original storyboards, including killing kong at the end.

  18. Good call on Court to Decide If Man Can Keep His Moon Rock · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Maybe he should have let the thing go on in the trash, then where would your precious little moon rock be? But that's what you get for trying, sued

    do you really think a zinc composite is any more durable than nylon? They are not going to put a steel gear in your dash, no matter how much more you offer to pay
