  1. Editing on Review: Zoolander · · Score: 1

    I agree with the editing out of the Twin Towers.

    The point of Zoolander is not to be a historicly accurate film. Zoolander is intended to be a laugh-your-ass-off comedy.

    If the image of the WTC detracts from the intent of the film, then remove it. For me personally the sight of the Towers floods me with emotions, none of which are good, positive or happy to say the least.

    You people are reading way too much into this. Cries of "censorship" and "rewriting history" are giving the creators of Zoolander too much credit.

  2. Netscape... on Web Standards Project Blasts Netscape · · Score: 2

    Netscape used to be a joy to develop for...now I feel that it is more of an obligation.

  3. Re:threading & media? How about cut and paste? on MacOS Keynote Coverage · · Score: 1
    "IMHO, this is one thing MSFT got right."

    This is one thing everybody except *nix got right.

    I dunno, I've been pulling for Linux on the desktop for ~5 years now, but I am starting to have a feeling in my gut that it will never happen. It's little things like this that make an OS feel "broken"

  4. Re:For the few who haven't watched it... on Survivor Winner Revealed By Bad Web Site Coding? · · Score: 1

    That's too damn bad...it's the best show that I have seen on tv in a l-o-n-g time.

    oh, and wtf does "basest" mean?

  5. Re:That reminds me... on Embedding Ads In MP3s? · · Score: 1
    My sig would probably be something like:

    I just bought the new Deftones cd because I can't seem to download a full song on my 56k dial-up

    Makes you wonder if the real reason for the hold up in fully deploying broadband net access may be to stall until copy protection is ironed out...
  6. Re:Why do they pick names like that? on nVidia Strikes Deal With Apple · · Score: 1

    It's more likely that they are refering to the word envision
    As in "We envision ourselves becoming Apple's chip provider"

  7. hmm... on Possible Pics Of The New Apple Mouse · · Score: 1

    Something about those renderings scream "FAKE"

    Every piece of Apple's industrial design has been an instant classic...almost museum worthy. With the work of the Apple Industrial Design Group, there is a consistant and elegant balance of form and function, with the exception of the hocky puck, of which function was an after thought.

    This thing just looks like some idiot "Hotlined" Infini-D and went nuts.

    I guess what I am trying to say is that this thing is just flat out ugly.
