  1. I wonder on Microsoft Gets Back Its FAT Patent In Germany · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I wonder how much that cost MS. Bribes aren't cheap.

  2. Very good. on WhiteHouse.gov Releases Open Source Code · · Score: 1

    Now let's make the rest of out government as open & transparent as the code that was just released. :D

  3. Re:They can apply it retroactively on Sony Can Update PS3 Firmware Without Permission · · Score: 1

    That should read $9 *is less than* $20

  4. Re:They can apply it retroactively on Sony Can Update PS3 Firmware Without Permission · · Score: 1

    Sony is no longer supplying rootkits in their audio CDs are they?

    As for the price of CDs not going down, I don't know where you are shopping but I get mine for about $9.99 or so from Amazon. Even not adjusted for inflation $9 $20.

  5. Good for them. on Ubisoft Says No More Game Manuals · · Score: 1

    Good for them. Not that I really care seeing as I'll never purchase an Ubisoft game again.

  6. Re:They can apply it retroactively on Sony Can Update PS3 Firmware Without Permission · · Score: 1

    I knew I'd have some pinhead reply with that exact remark. I knew it. The entire point of a class-action is to make a company stop doing something. Not to make you rich.

    I don't understand why some people can't grasp that simple concept.

  7. Re:All US bills still same size, color on Treasury Goes High-Tech With Redesigned $100 Bills · · Score: 1

    You can't. At least not at any of the ATMs around here.

  8. Re:They can apply it retroactively on Sony Can Update PS3 Firmware Without Permission · · Score: 1

    Which is why we have class-action lawsuits. I smell a nasty one in Sony's near future.

  9. Re:They're working on it. That's all. on More Evidence For Steam Games On Linux · · Score: 1

    I think GoG & Stardock have them beat in the least offensive DRM department.

  10. Re:All US bills still same size, color on Treasury Goes High-Tech With Redesigned $100 Bills · · Score: 1

    Every ATM I've used in the past 5 years only gives 20s, so probably none. Before that it was only 10s & 20s.

  11. Re:Possible Future of Marketing Franchises? on Microsoft Clears MechWarrior4 Free Launch · · Score: 3, Informative

    Yup, Gog is awesome & they just re-released Master of Orion 1 & 2 earlier this week.

  12. Hilarity on Adobe Stops Development For iPhone · · Score: 5, Interesting

    It would be very funny if Adobe, just for spite, decided to stop making it's high end graphic design products compatible with Apple hardware. And figured out a way to make them not work via virtualization on Apple hardware as well.

    I know, I know, they are publicly traded & would never cut off that revenue stream.

  13. Re:As the Rednecks say: on Extremists Warn South Park Creators Over Muhammad In a Bear Suit · · Score: 1

    The terrorists are in it for the money & power too?

  14. Re:Blizzard did the same thing on Website Mass-Bans Users Who Mention AdBlock · · Score: 1

    Statistically speaking, "Smart people" make up 40% of the population. The words you are looking for are technically inclined.

  15. Who cares? on Extremists Warn South Park Creators Over Muhammad In a Bear Suit · · Score: 0, Troll

    Fuck Islamic radicals. Also for good measure, fuck Mohammed.

  16. Re:Blizzard did the same thing on Website Mass-Bans Users Who Mention AdBlock · · Score: 1

    Well now, that is interesting. Had not idea about that. Are there any screenshots of these pages floating around? Links?

  17. Re:Blizzard did the same thing on Website Mass-Bans Users Who Mention AdBlock · · Score: 1

    Tricks you? The ones surrounded by yellow with the text "sponsored link" beside them? Are you sure you're on the right website there, Spanky?

  18. Re:Choices on RCN P2P Settlement Is Not Even a Slap On the Wrist · · Score: 1

    Spoken like someone who has never used Dish for internet access. Dial-up is more reliable & has lower latency.

  19. Re:Thats supposed to be obvious? on Digital Photocopiers Loaded With Secrets · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Security thru lack of features, maybe.

  20. Re:Kernel tricks to take advantage of it? on Hidden Cores On Phenom CPUs Can Be Unlocked · · Score: 1

    You can also do this in XP with Process Explorer.

  21. Re:Some will clearly stick around. on Crytek Thinks Free Game Demos Will Soon Be Extinct · · Score: 1

    Especially with digital delivery. With digital delivery, there's no .... used game sales.

    Except for Stardock & GoG.

  22. Re:I wonder if this will lead up to the CEO? on HP's Moscow Offices Raided In Bribery Probe · · Score: 1

    No, I mean the rest of the US is going to saw California off at the state line & push it into the Pacific, ala Bugs Bunny.

  23. Re:Fifth Amendement Right on Lower Merion School District Update · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Bullshit.

    Tracking stolen equipment is an excuse they came up with after they got caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

    Why didn't they discipline the student for theft instead of eating Ike & Mikes?

    Why didn't they take the laptop back from the kid when they realized that the insurance wasn't paid on it?

    Does the student *still* have the laptop in question?

    What about the other 41 incidences?

    Quit being so disingenuous.

  24. Re:Do Not Fall For This Dangerous Scam on Lower Merion School District Update · · Score: 1

    Wow. I know people believe what they want to be true, but you'd have to be a dyed in the wool moron to believe that crap.

    Don't call them chicks, broads hate that.
