  2. erm... on Gator Forces Site To Remove 'Spyware' Label · · Score: 1

    be careful what i say?
    gator sucks
    gator takes over your computer
    gator is the worst program ever
    gator hiders your computer's proformance

    gator is not only adware, but spyware... they have to spy on whta you're doing to deliver you the proper ads... they give that info to their advertisers, hence, spyware.

  6. Re:Call these people on U.S. Court Blocks Anti-Telemarketing List · · Score: 1

    keep in mind, if you call the numbers, make sure you're going to voice your opinion to a decision maker. if you voice your opinion to a telephone operator, it's only creating a headache for him/her, and not being productive.

  7. have some fun. on U.S. Court Blocks Anti-Telemarketing List · · Score: 1

    i gave them a call... they said that they have their own do-not-call list, so they don't need the ftc having one... ironic eh?

  11. so... on ISP Recovers in 72 Hours After Leveling by Tornado · · Score: 2, Insightful

    let me get this straight, all the houses around the isp have no power, no phone... but they still need to get online?

  12. kinda defeats the purpose on Google Removes Links in Response to DMCA Complaint · · Score: 1

    kinda defeats the purpose when you list the sites in question on the dmca complaint page.

  13. Re:Apples to oranges on Diamonds & the RIAA · · Score: 1

    True, both the member companies of RIAA and DeBeers are cartels, but what one controls through rarity (diamonds) the other controls through absolute control (music).

    now, with added replacements so it sums up the article.

    True, both the member companies of RIAA and DeBeers are cartels, but what one controls through supply (diamonds) the other controls through supply (music).

    you gotta realise the RIAA has a hand in everything, from selection of artists (american idol), to recording (duh), to delivery of the product (production/shipping)... just like diamonds.

  14. automatically get a ticket? on UK to Put Monitors in Every Car? · · Score: 1

    why don't they spend more money on automatically driving the car safe FOR you rather than automatically punishing you? i smell a need for revenue.

  16. another problem. on Mailing Disks is Faster than Uploading Data · · Score: 1

    if i send a million 1 megabyte files out, those one million files are instantly read at the destination(s) ... (i won't even get into the fact that, that one word SHOULD be pluralized). anyway, if you load up a caravan with cds, don't forget to add the time of burning all the cds, and reading all the cds.

    why was this even a story? unless you do hard drives, this is pointless.

    the bigger problem is, people need a more efficent way of storing files.

    if you're sending terabytes of info, how much of that info is duplicated on every transfer?

  17. Re:car stuff on Public Confused by Tech Lingo · · Score: 1

    more like, rotator splints, and muffler bearings, sadly, i've seen people suckered in, and they weren't even blind.

  19. this may just be a phase. on Laptops Outsell Desktops in Retail Stores · · Score: 4, Insightful

    weren't computer sales down 6 months ago?

    corporations don't have the money to upgrade anymore, that's a big bulk of a downcline in desktop sales...

    and, universities would rather use laptops rather than desktops becuase of space and power requirements.

  20. friends? on Anti-Spam Webforms Leave Out The Blind · · Score: 3, Interesting

    as far as i know, a) sites like yahoo are private, much like the boy scouts, they can discriminate. they will get bad press for it, but oh well.

    b) sites like yahoo could make a work around, you could call up for a username and password

    c) the turing test only has to be passed once. i've never had to pass it a second time, once i'm a verified human being i'm verified... so why can't the blind have someone do it for them the first time? it would even be cheaper than hiring a lawyer, exspecially for a case they are going to loose.

  21. Re:Simpler way Re:A better way... on Anti-Spam Webforms Leave Out The Blind · · Score: 1

    it can't be in the downloaded .html

    sites like yahoo put it into a picture so auto-registering bots can't register.

    if you just simply put out 'secret code' in the html, the bot could recognize that and register.
