  1. Meh on Social News Sites Pay Top Submitters · · Score: 1

    this is just Netscape wasting Time Warner's cash on a stupid idea. I doubt very much this will last more than 6 months.

  2. I have no idea which Craigslist you are using. on The 100 Best Tech Products of 2006 · · Score: 1

    I have used it very successfully to buy, sell, and give away stuff. Maybe you're in a different city from me (San Francisco)? I have had very few problems with craigslist.

  3. No on Web 2.0 As A New Wave of Innovation? · · Score: 5, Funny
    it is a new wave 2.0 of innovation 2.0.

    With twice the self importance of the original!

  4. Before you go to the hearing on Congress Sets Sights on Videogames · · Score: 2, Funny

    make sure to drink a cup of hot coffee

  5. Re:Exactly. on How iPods Took Over the World · · Score: 1
    Why the iPod is great: Much better UI than any other player. Simple integration with iTunes which manages your MP3s (or other formats) with east.

    Why iTunes Music Store sucks: DRM'd tracks. No freedom. I refuse to buy from it. (I rip my CDs or buy legal MP3s.) But I love my iPod (first generation, spinning wheel) and will get more iPods as needed.

  6. Re:iPod's marketing is so clever, on How iPods Took Over the World · · Score: 1, Funny

    Really, the whole site should be marked Redundant.

  7. Exactly. on How iPods Took Over the World · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The iPod is a great deal. The iTunes Music Store is a terrible deal. The original poster doesn't seem to get that at all, nor do most of the press.

  8. What a stupid article on Yahoo Defends Itself On China Allegations · · Score: 1

    One Yahoo guy says whatg Yahoo always says about this, then Ars Technica asks its readers to discuss. This is news?

  9. Web 2.0?! on Self-Serve Car Rental · · Score: 1

    If Zipcar is Web 2.0, what isn't? This is beyond absurd.

  10. Easiest for the PowerBook 5300 on Apple Recycling Old Macs for Free · · Score: 1

    Just plug it in and wait for it to explode!

  11. Re:The logical application of 3G bandwidth on No 3G for HP Until 2007 · · Score: 1

    Reasonable speed internet access is all I want. Web, email, all that. Video? Who cares?

  12. Right on 5% of All Web Traffic Unsafe · · Score: 1

    And this improves things over the dismal earlier versions of XP, but keep in mind that the bad guys use various exploits (e.g. popping up fake windows in front of the warnings) to force spyware installs.

  13. so now we'll see on 5% of All Web Traffic Unsafe · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Safe 95% Of All Web Sites" logos on people's homepages?

  14. Re:What do they mean by safe? on 5% of All Web Traffic Unsafe · · Score: 2, Informative

    But it won't install it automatically or via an exploit (typically). Most spyware is delivered via ActiveX.

  15. Re:Wrong on Justice Dept. Rejects Google's Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    But has the SCOTUS ever decided that due to congressional regulation it may not review a law? Congress has tried this recently, if I remember correctly, but I don't think the court has ever rejected a case on those grounds.

  16. Re:Not really accurate on Justice Dept. Rejects Google's Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    That would have to be done by constitutional amendment. Not too bloody likely.

  17. Great on RSS, flickr and del.icio.us on a Mobile Phone · · Score: 1

    Now we will have mobile 2.0 hype.

  18. already done on Rumsfeld Requests 24-hour Propaganda Machine · · Score: 2, Funny
  19. Mondaine Don't Rush watch on Interesting Wrist Watches? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I have a neat watch from Mondaine (makers of Swiss Railways watches) that only has one hand, and little hashmarks that show the minutes in 5 min increments. It's very minimalist - after all, if you have a good enough eye, one hand is all you need - and it never fails to confuse people when they see it. (Someone has it on ebay.)

  20. Re:I love this guy. on Domestic Spying Records Ordered Released · · Score: 1

    Dude, Chairman Kaga should be our president.

  21. what? on Science and Technology Medals Awarded · · Score: 5, Funny

    no pioneers in intelligent design?

  22. Re:Perhaps they can make it possible to configure on MythTV 0.19 Released · · Score: 1, Insightful
    I found that MythTV itself was rather easy to configure. What was hard was all of the subsystems required by MythTV.

    And this, dear reader, is why hardly anyone uses MythTV. Who has time to figure out that subsystems are involved, let alone configure them?!

  23. Re:Disclaimer on Limited Email Surveillance Approved · · Score: 1

    Until they get PGP also. (Why oh why is it not built into email clients?!)

  24. Can I edit or delete your answers? on Got a Question for Wikipedia Founder Jimmy Wales? · · Score: 1

    n/t

  25. Yes on Should Businesses Have Mobile Friendly Websites? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yes, they should
    make their web
    pages small enough
    for cellphone
    users to read.
