  1. Re:Better Living Through Chemistry on Towards an Exercise Pill · · Score: 1

    I just don't watch TV. Interferes with my reading.

  2. Re:Better Living Through Chemistry on Towards an Exercise Pill · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oh I realize that, too good to be true & so on & so forth..

  3. Better Living Through Chemistry on Towards an Exercise Pill · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If this drug works as advertised & has no dangerous side effects, why wouldn't *everyone* including athletes take it? I realize that this would be an unfair advantage in the present, but I'm talking about after 20+ years of testing.

  4. Re:Bots on Blizzard Tries To Forbid Open Sourcing Glider · · Score: 1

    I don't play pay MMORPGs, & I'm not familiar with PvP on WoW, but can't you just kill the bots if you see them? They sound like an easy target.

  5. Re:I can only think of two words on DHS Allowed To Take Laptops Indefinitely · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Well, they've found a way to expand & mutate the "War on Drugs" mentality to cover everyone. Not so fun when it affects you, is it?

  6. Re:EAT SHIT! on Windows Is Dead – Long Live Midori? · · Score: 1

    It's ok Bill, we still love you too!

  7. Re:"Illegally" filtering out on The Ridiculous LexisNexis Search that the Justice Department Used · · Score: 1

    LOL, do really believe the crap you just typed out? I find it amazing the extent some people will go to rationalize things when said things are not going the way they'd like them to go. Hilarious.

  8. Here's hoping.... on Windows Is Dead – Long Live Midori? · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... that it doesn't suck! Linux still needs competition to keep us on our toes!

  9. Re:"Illegally" filtering out on The Ridiculous LexisNexis Search that the Justice Department Used · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Civil servants have a much more narrowly defined range of the things they can or can't do with regard to politics. It is illegal to politicize certain career government positions, & this is exactly what Gonzales / Goodling did. Whether you think it's a good idea or not is immaterial.

  10. Greed is Patriotic on IOC Admits Internet Censorship Deal With China · · Score: 1

    No surprise here. I'm boycotting them (and advertisers) this year, anyhow.

  11. Re:Rember is Methylene Blue on Drug Halts Decline In Alzheimer's Patients · · Score: 1

    Seems much simpler / safer than this: http://damncoolpics.blogspot.com/2007/07/eye-tattoo.html

  12. Nice... on Microsoft's Decade-old Patent On Tree-view Mode! · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I have to give MS kudos for not using this patent offensively.

  13. Re:What's wrong with PC Chips, S3, etc.? on MoBo Manufacturer Foxconn Refuses To Support Linux · · Score: 1

    Poor quality or performance & in the case of Compaq / HP, both.

  14. Fine... on MoBo Manufacturer Foxconn Refuses To Support Linux · · Score: 1

    They can join PC Chips, S3, HP / Compaq & Hitachi in the list of hardware I won't buy.

  15. Tame on How To Deal With Internet Bullies? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, this guy is not so much a troll as he is just lousy at making feature requests.

  16. Re:Average Consumers? How about average internet.. on Speculation On a Second Internet Economy Collapse · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's pretty thin reasoning. By your logic you would have never installed Firefox in the 1st place. You realize that plug-ins "maintain" themselves, right?

  17. Games on How To Encourage a Young Teen To Learn Programming? · · Score: 1

    If he likes PC gaming at all, find one he likes that is scriptable, preferably with a C like structure. Neverwinter Nights & Unreal come to mind immediately, but I'm sure there are many others.

  18. Re:I dont have one yet... on Wii Is the New US Console Leader · · Score: 1

    They keep them in the back at my local Wal-Mart, if you haven't tried asking the sales associates, give that a shot.

    If you still can't find one, email me & maybe we can figure something out.

  19. Re:NIN did this recently... on Companies Coming Around To Piracy's Upside? · · Score: 1

    "The Slip" was ok, but "Ghosts I-IV" was much, much better.

  20. Re:the third parties are running idiots too..... on McCain Campaign Uses Spider/Diff Against Obama · · Score: 1

    The same thing that happened to Qwest, nothing.

  21. Elderly games. on Final Fantasy XIII Is Coming To Xbox 360 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Fucking let it die already.

  22. Re:Option on ACLU Files Lawsuit Challenging FISA · · Score: 1

    People can change their minds I guess. I know I'm a completely different person, mentally, than I was 10 years ago.

    Maybe he finally got to see first hand how some of the things he's voted yes to has affected friends & family?

    But yeah, his existing voting record is straight Repubnant.

  23. Re:I prefer this idea: on Free Games As a Solution To Game Piracy · · Score: 1

    Rejecting any license still gives you no legal right to distribute anything. Sorry.

  24. Re:End up in court on Louisiana Passes Intelligent Design Law · · Score: 1

    If I were in your shoes I'd use ID to compare and contrast real science from psuedo-science drivel.

    Make some lemonade out of those lemons.

  25. Re:I prefer this idea: on Free Games As a Solution To Game Piracy · · Score: 1

    Right, so if I reject the GPL I can distribute my J-Hat(tm) Linux without the code or attributions.

    Sorry, it just doesn't work that way.
