  1. Re:I predict, for the moment, only.... on MplayerX Leaving Mac App Store · · Score: 1

    I argue its already hit critical mass, and the masses are starting to wake up to the idea that one store does not have all that they may want

  2. Re:Still was going to have a real tough time on Trouble At OnLive · · Score: 1

    "When the day comes that everyone has high end internet connections, maybe it is more feasible."

    yea, we said the same thing back in dialup days, guess what happened? The games got more complex, and the internet doesn't improve nearly as quick

  3. What about digital? on Gartner Buzzword Tracker Says "Cloud Computing" Still on Hype Wave · · Score: 1

    While the cloud irks me, digital just makes me want to choke someone

    "you can get this computer generated in both DVD AND DIGITAL!!!"
    "now available for digital download!!!"
    and on and on and on

  4. Re:I somehow think you are joking on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    your and any other programs can read the clipboard too, whats the reason behind analyzing it if you fail basic computer concepts

  5. Re:How are Anonymous NOT terrorists? on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    My guess is to shed light on these systems where a 14 year old can just walk in and make off with all your data ... what started them on sony? Maybe cause sony has been a very big asshole for the last decade, and well, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

  6. Re:I somehow think you are joking on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    why fucking bother you can use select all and copy it to the clipboard for anything you want to read it without even looking at the source

  7. Re:Sony's says this is fake on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    it doesnt matter who did it or where its being posted from, your not going to reshuffle your database every time its accessed ... Im not saying its not a fake claim, I am just saying that the data may look identical cause it came from the same original source and is probably ordered in a logical fashion with no reason to waste the time and effort of changing its order cause in the end the computer doesnt care.

  8. Re:Sony's says this is fake on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    sony also says it makes the best game machines as well

  9. Re:Wow... you are dumb on Anonymous Claims To Have Hacked Sony PSN Again · · Score: 1

    its not a challenge cause its a feature, are you saying sonys joke security is a feature that serves a perfectly logical reason?

  10. Re:224MB memory? Forget it. on Nokia Researcher Puts Firefox OS On Raspberry Pi · · Score: 1

    1) turn off javascript, it will help a shitton
    2) go look at webpages from the 4 meg days, now go look at a modern site, see how that works?

  11. Gee on The Rapid Rise of License Plate Readers · · Score: 2

    Your navigating thousands of pounds of metal at high speed with a UUID at least on one end of it, if not two

    who would want to keep an eye on that? Fuck I get annoyed by the same GFD hillbilly who is doing 100+ in a 1992 chevy truck with 6 inch pipes sticking out of the back of the cab 2 foot above the roofline every single day. I know their vehicle, shit I even know their license plate, whats the difference if I report it or a camera does?

    Yea I am being tracked as well, but theres this thing called an if statement ... if (driver == asshole) flag; else break

  12. Uranus on Vote On What the Very Large Telescope Observes · · Score: 1

    next question please

  13. Meh on Office To Become Fully Open XML Compliant (at Last) · · Score: 0

    Call me when open / libre office calc does more than 1024 rows, then I will care about compatibility of MS files, cause I might have a reason to use something other than MS office

  14. Re:What's new? on Facebook Faces High-Level Staff Exodus · · Score: 1

    One day a few years ago I saw a job listing that required 3 years of experience specifically on a product that wasnt due to be released for another quarter. Not just some update, but a pretty radical departure from its previous version, and only hit the news a half year before.

    I sent in a resume claiming I was Marty Mcfly and that I had over 2 decades of experiance using the software that was not released yet... I got a rather rude email back

    HR = retard

  15. Re:Love fb on Facebook Faces High-Level Staff Exodus · · Score: 1

    "FB is a pretty smart idea; only a fool would say otherwise."

    So was AOL, myspace, and another 2 dozen communities just like it in the past, its a fad

    that fad will eventually grow tired and move on to the next facebook, leaving all that time and effort spent reduced to a news blog, its impressive no doubt, but so were each and every one of its predecessors, and the future will be yet another service that "change people's lives" thats just facebook + a few of the things you mention to make it 0.07% slightly better for your aunt or teenage cousin to bullshit about nothing on for a few more years.

  16. Re:Love fb on Facebook Faces High-Level Staff Exodus · · Score: 1

    It hasn't changed my life one bit, its just another in a long series of popular communities, they run for a while, crap out and get replaced while some child claimed they changed humanity

  17. Wow google on What Happens To Google Employees When They Die? · · Score: 0

    you invented life insurance, and benefits thats going to pile up on you in debt just like GM, it must be nice to be a genius

  18. Meh whatever on White House Pulls Down TSA Petition · · Score: 1

    1) The people behind this "story" are making a big fucking deal out of normal maintenance and a half hour
    2) You really shouldnt care anyway cause 'We the People' is a fucking joke anyway. Its nothing more than busywork that gets you nothing else but an official copy and paste response.

  19. Super on Rootbeer GPU Compiler Lets Almost Any Java Code Run On the GPU · · Score: 1

    Why?

  20. Its hard to sell on PlayStation Boss Defends Vita, Slams Social Gaming · · Score: 1

    Cause its expensive and shares the same heritage as the PSP, which means we will get 4 hardware revisions and a pile of expensive shovelware shit games. I dont know about others, but I sure as shit am not wasting my time or money on a sony portable ever again.

  21. Should have let them do it on Craigslist Drops Exclusive License To Your Posts · · Score: 2

    Then all the post's selling dope and hookers could then turn around and say it wasn't theirs, that craigslist owned it. Then we can see how well their little ass headed ideas work for them, instead of having to scold them (and every other dumbshit company) like children.

  22. Re:Raspberry Pi? on How Haiku Is Building a Better BeOS · · Score: 1

    wtf why on a Pi? get debian, dont install shit for it, and couple it with some obsolete 1990's UI and bam you have Haiku in a nutshell, and its safe cause it really hasnt changed much since day one. (be wasnt really all that special either, it was mainly the beefcake hardware that was the appeal, not an os with nothing to run)

    now toddle on little Pi head, and remind your breathern, just cause you just heard of an OS today, doesnt mean you instantly post about how great it would be on a Pi with its tiny amount of computer power (more power than the last generation of video game consoles)

  23. And replace it with what? on Acer: Microsoft Surface 'Negative For The Whole PC Industry' · · Score: 1

    The best open source office suite is a decade behind MS, the best linux distro is still a headache for nerds let alone normal people, tons of peripherals like printers act pants on head retarded or flat out crash the print server, and never mind you cant even force people from XP to a newer version of windows let alone something that's going to break all their shit.

    so seriously

    "The company is reportedly considering whether or not they want to keep relying on Microsoft's software products."

    What are you going to replace it with, that wont drive away normal, average, everyday customers?
