  1. Re:Why the hell hack fark on Fox Hacks Fark · · Score: 2, Informative

    Sounds like you are banned. That's what they do. Much less confrontational that way.

  2. Re:Stealing the fark source code on Fox Hacks Fark · · Score: 1

    So I assume we won't have to deal with you in the future? Please?

  3. Re:Just plain cool ??? Just plain stupid on How To Turn a Mini Maglite Into a Laser · · Score: 1

    Was it in the middle of Don't Fear the Reaper?

  4. Obligatory on Female Astronaut Sets Space Record · · Score: 4, Funny

    She also set the record for the most number of orbits with the turn signal on.

  5. Re:Don't buy it on It's Not News, It's Fark · · Score: 2, Informative

    I would have to agree.

  6. O RLY? on Do We Really Need a Security Industry? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    And if our buildings and public places were built securely, we wouldn't need police, right?

  7. Re:Good for them, but... on Mozilla Releases Thunderbird 2.0.0 · · Score: 1

    Try this. I also see a link at the top of http://help.rr.com/ marked "server addresses and URLS." Of course, I don't see any mention of help.rr.com anywhere on my local TWC page, so that could have been part of the problem you are having. The folks I have dealt with at RoadRunner and TWC have never been anything but helpful, but that may have a whole lot to do with the local staff.

  8. This isn't new on BBC Ponders Another Games Industry Crash · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that most consoles have been loss-leaders for some time now, at least at launch, with the real money coming from licensing.

  9. Not many on What's Your Site Rotation? · · Score: 1

    Fark, cybernations, slashdot, fark, fark, boingboing, slashdot, fark, sensibleerection if I am bored, digg if I am REALLY bored. Penny Arcade on MWF. Meebo.com as needed, and anything else work related through the day.

  10. Re:Who needs to pirate console games? on Piracy Forced id's Hand To Multiplatform Gaming · · Score: 1

    as well as a used copy of "Galactic Civilization II: Dread Lords" at EB-Games. I also had no problem registering the games with the serial I don't think your copy of GalCiv was ever actually used. Stardock will try to sell you another copy if you complain when your used serial doesn't work.
  11. Re:it's more of a tracking device, really on GDC - Miyamoto Delivers Developer-Focused Keynote · · Score: 1

    Yeah, welcome to Web 2.No.

  12. Re:All you need to know... on (Almost) All You Need To Know About IPv6 · · Score: 1

    They were owned by GTE at one point, who became Verizon. I'm not sure if this is still the case, but I'd imagine that Verizon could find a use for all those IPs.

  13. Re:All you need to know... on (Almost) All You Need To Know About IPv6 · · Score: 5, Informative

    Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc (?) BBN built the ARPANET, I can kind of understand why they have a class A.
  14. Re:the finest... on Do-It-Yourself Steampunk Keyboard · · Score: 1

    Just out of curiousity, did you find a source for keycaps? I am missing the Esc and an Alt cap for my Model M, and came up dry a few months ago. I can't complain, though. The keyboard was $2 at Goodwill and cleaned up very nicely.

  15. Re: Drivers on 25 Games Tested in Vista · · Score: 1

    Starforce copy protection uses a driver for some damn thing.

  16. Re:Destroying Terroristic Buzzwords Act on Deleting Online Predators Act - R.I.P. · · Score: 1

    Thank you, AC, for saving me from having to type that in, cause it is what I was thinking when I clicked the link.

  17. Re:Blending a Blendtec blender on Non-Geeky Gifts for Tech Geeks · · Score: 1

    Let them know. I know I would LOVE to see that.

  18. Anyone else notice... on Independent Benchmarking System for Mice · · Score: 4, Funny

    From TFA: ESReports is an International site, so all Non-English posts will be deleted.

    What the hell? Outside of this country EVERYONE speaks English?

  19. Re:Wii-Bells! Bells! on KOTOR Will Rise Again · · Score: 1

    That was the right. I like to switch it up. Tell your mom to send more pics.

  20. Re:Wii on KOTOR Will Rise Again · · Score: 1

    Seems like a natural fit. I loved playing Jedi Knight with my flightstick, a Wii-mote making lightsabre noises in my hand might be enough to make me actually play another Star Wars game.

  21. Obligatory on Ubisoft Aims For Number Two · · Score: 2, Funny

    Random scatological response.

  22. Re:Slashdot headline worst ever on Sony Console the Worst Launch Ever · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I was commenting upon the constant "boo Sony" and "yay Wii" headlines. I am sure Zonk is a very well spoken and intelligent person, but this misleading headline irritated me. This type of thing also bothers me when mainstream news outlets do it, but it is especially depressing when "new media" does it, and as blatantly as this.

  23. Slashdot headline worst ever on Sony Console the Worst Launch Ever · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...but not this one. Is Zonk some 14 year old with Mario sheets on his bed?

  24. OMG PONIES on Some Back Compat Problems For PS3 · · Score: 1, Funny

    Can I still play Barbie's Horse Adventure?

  25. Re:Extensions on Firefox 2.0 RC2 Review · · Score: 1

    Make me an offer.
