  1. Why am I not surprised by this.... on Saruman Completely Cut from 'Return of the King' · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    afterall they butchered the other two movies. Holywood can't seem to make a decent movie any more, it seems to be all about the eye candy and nothing else....damn seems like holloywood and video games have some strage parallels, but that is another story.

  2. this is good news on Star Wars Original Trilogy Gets DVD Release Date · · Score: 0
    it is just sad that they are covering the clone wars in a fucking cartoon.

    American chocolate is seriously inferior to european chocolate, and I only know this because i went to europe and brought back an entire frigging suitcase of chocolate from austria......Mmmmm Austrian chocolate.....

  4. Gee who would have thought?! on Gaming Communities Cause Of TV Ratings Decline? · · Score: 0, Redundant
    go online where I can be 133t, or sit around and be passive watching someone else do shit. Who would have ever thought that a person would rather DO than watch....well execpt for those Voyeur types....

  5. I firmly belive that on Librarian of Congress Posts DMCA Exemptions · · Score: 1
    those who make the laws are SO WAY OUT OF FUCKING TOUCH with the real world that things are only going to get much, much worse. I also thik that we (Again I am refering to the U.S.) will see a revolution of one sort or another against our very own lawmakers and "leaders" were we will take back what is ours. It may very well be bloodless, but we will see one.

    *Sigh* It was a nice thought though wasn't it?

  6. Re:New.Net on Which Adware and Spyware are the Most Insidious? · · Score: 1
    holy shit that made me laugh.

  7. My three step solution to Spammers on Spam Rapidly Increasing In Weblog Comments · · Score: 1
    1) find out who they are
    2) track them down
    3) confront them and then put them in either the hospital or the morgue.

  8. Big friggin deal. on Circuits Everywhere · · Score: -1, Redundant
    ooooo conductive ink! the shit has been around for the last 15+ years. ever wonder what is used on overlays? so what's the big deal? I have read about companies using conductive ink on paper for a few years now, hell Xerox was tryin this out 10+ years ago....

  9. hmmm I think I'll pass on Home Brew Hard Drive Silencer/Cooler · · Score: 1, Interesting
    $27 is a bit high for something I could make in my garage with a few spare parts. Ya it may not be as good but I think saving that much money would be worth it to only have 50-70% reduction in noise.

  10. shit people. on Sci-Fi Channel Looks for LGM in NASA Files · · Score: 2, Insightful
    It doesn't matter if they do release the documents, all kinds of different depts and agencies get thier chance to "black-line" the varies documents to the point you can read one or two words per paragraph.

  11. The biggest problem on Max Payne 2 Reviewed · · Score: 0
    with MP2 was that it was WAY too fricking short. I finished the thing in well under a third the time I did the oridinal. it was a waste of my friends money.

  12. Whatever it's not like on Chinese Astronaut Makes It Back Safely · · Score: 1
    they would tell us if there were any problems during the flight. They just roll the same PR as everyone else "evrything went smooth, and the pilot is doing great" I have heard that crap before

  13. At least the company I work at is honest! on Does Your Company Censor the Content for You? · · Score: 3, Funny
    they just throw up a huge "THIS PAGE IS RESTRICTED BY COMPANY POLICY" page complete with little flashing red lights and sirens. that last bit is funny because you can hear them going off every so often as someone in the office tries a "restricted" page and has the sound turned on and up.

  14. My oldest hardware on What's the Oldest Hardware You are Still Using? · · Score: 0
    was the hardware I was born with.

  15. this is not something to worry about on Microsoft Taking Over the BIOS · · Score: 1
    because there will always be at least one bios/mobo company out there that doesn't cater to the industry choke-holder. So someone will make a non-os specific BIOS and they will become the new mobo/BIOS leader as they will be the one most people will pick, furthermore Pheniox will be forced to take a nice long dirt nap.

  16. Brand NEW! and amazing!! on New Solar Cells 20 Times Cheaper · · Score: 1
    blah blah, whatever. I will only care when I can buy them from places like digi-key, until then it's a moot point.

  17. living in a dream! on The Surprising Benefits of Being Unemployed · · Score: 1, Interesting
    "your company will reciprocate by making sacrifices in bad times to take care of you by not depriving you of your paycheck and benefits"


    HA! ya right, and the moon is made of green cheese. the only loyalty I feel for the company I work for is when they are paying me, and that varies upon the ammount they are paying me. More money = More loyalty. at least until 5:30pm then all loyalty stops and they can shove off cause I'm on my own time from then on.

  18. And this a surprise? on States Push for Net Sales Taxes · · Score: 1
    Why can't the feds and states just be honest for once and admit all they want it to take your whole fucking paycheck? Instead they just pass "a little tax" here and there. holy fucking shit why not try a new and revolutionary budget solution.

    Don't comment when you don'tknow the whole story. I was told that I would be training my replacement (my boss doesn't shine me on) and then I would be fired because it was ceaper. THAT was why I left before training my "replacement".

    problem with that is it is likley that DIEBOLD also knows this and is willing to sell this info to different political parties and lobby groups.

    Thats is what a professior of mine had been saying for years, and he always made us use either a) slide rule or B) or heads and some paper, no calculators or computers allowed...... and I'll be damned if I didn't kick the shit outta other classes by using his time-tested and true methods.
