  1. Re:Definiton of "Internet" on UK ISP Imposes Download Limits · · Score: 1

    the word you are looking for is "AOL"

  2. Re:Does this count? on Hardware and Software Art · · Score: 1

    I just want there to be girls at the parties I go to.

  3. Re:Eh? on Warner Brothers Announce The Matrix: Special Edit · · Score: 1

    edit should be edition

  4. I don't get it. on Quickly Filling Up 150GB of Legal Media Files? · · Score: 1

    What do expect to download once you get on these hubs if you're not interested in illegal material? That's the whole point of it!

  5. Re:doubtful on How Could TV Survive Without Commercials? · · Score: 1

    Life's too short to be stuck indoors staring at an electron gun projecting moving pictures all day.

    Like, say, your computer monitor?

  6. Re:Great Job on Congress Discovers Peer-to-Peer Porn · · Score: 1

    You've got the wright idea.

  7. Re:I care why? on MP3.com Summit - The Music Revolution is Over · · Score: 1

    The obscure and fringe artists are the ones that need our financial support the most.

  8. Re:No, all it takes on Digital Display Encryption Details Leaked · · Score: 1

    someone will ship hardware that's user-friendly

    Not when congress passes a law funded by the mpaa that requires all monitors sold in the U.S. to include this garbage.

  9. Re:I don't see any problems with this. on Baseball Fans Must Pay To Listen Online · · Score: 1

    Of course the ads are going to be there, the announcers stop announcing during the commercial break, so unless they decide to put in big spots of dead air, the ads are gonna be there.

  10. Re:lol I agree on CNET Reviews Windows XP Beta 2 · · Score: 1

    I think you might mean the Quick Launch toolbar.

  11. Re:needs eye tracking on Head-Mounted Mouse · · Score: 1

    I think head tracking is better than eye tracking for this. I would want to be able to look at the corners of my screen without the mouse pointer moving there. It should be a deliberate motion causing the pointer to move. Imagine playing Quake and when you look at your health bar, your view goes spiraling around. Head tracking is much better

  12. Re:Can you answer a question for me? (OT) on Scientology vs. Panoussis Ruling · · Score: 1

    I have a good friend who is a Witness and he explained to me that he believes only a few will make it into Heaven (I think he used the 27,000 figure, but I'm not sure). He said that Heaven was already "full" and that the rest of the good ones will live in Paradise here on Earth after the Armageddon.

    As far as not making friends outside of the Witnesses or pursuing an education that is not true (at least not for him). He has many friends outside of their network. His parents are Catholic and he did not convert until he was 16. He is planning to attend law school so that he can volunteer as a lawyer for the Witnesses. He also explained to me that they don't vote because Jehova is the only true leader, and voting for a president is a vote against God.

    Keep in mind, I don't agree with any of this stuff, but that is the way he explained it to me.

  13. If only my monitor could catch up on Booting Linux In Three Seconds · · Score: 1

    I would still be waiting about 8 seconds, because, it takes longer than 3 seconds for my monitor to warm up.

  14. Re:Mason Verger's face "disturbing"? on Hannibal's Return · · Score: 1

    What I couldm't figure was why cutting his face off would confine him to a wheelchair? I didn't see anything about other injuries so why was the rest of his body messed up too?

  15. Earthlink is just as bad on Sprint's Wireless Broadband - And What A TOS! · · Score: 1

    This story prompted me to read through Earthlink's TOS since that is my ISP. On http://www.earthlink.com/about/policies/aupolicy.h tml it says "Pinging is expressly prohibited." Well I guess I've violated that one a few million times.

    This post is also violating their Internet Access Agreement (http://www.earthlink.com/about/policies/accessagr mnt.htmlbecause it says "You may provide a hypertext link to our Web site on another Web site, provided that: the link must "point" to the URL 'http://www.earthlink.com' or 'www.earthlink.net' and not to any other pages within the Web site."

    Oh well!

  16. Re:Wouldn't it be ironic... on Eat Less - Live Longer · · Score: 1

    34 days would be even crazier!

  17. Bush's win makes me hate the South on Election Wrapping Up (Part 2) · · Score: 1

    When I see the map of the areas that voted for Bush it almost makes me wish the North had lost the Civil War.

  18. Infinite Universes on Why Does The Universe Exist? · · Score: 1

    If there are infinite universes that exist, then an infinite number of them would be be exactly like ours. That means an infinite number of people exactly like me posting messages exactly this one to websites exactly like slashdot.

  19. Re:Oh Great.. on Why Not To Meter Internet Access · · Score: 1

    I think you have forgetten that those who cannot use AOL correctly are the masses.
