  1. Re:Just put them in your microwave on You Need Not Be Paranoid To Fear RFID · · Score: 1

    That probably violates the DMCA

  2. Re:Article summary on Why Students Are Leaving Engineering · · Score: 1

    I always thought the point was to learn how to think objectively, and solve problems. If you only learn the material, you aren't getting a good education

  3. Camera on Retro Totem Tattoo Commemorates Gaming Classics · · Score: 1

    What's up with the horrible pictures? If you are planning to document something, use something better then your cellphone camera!

  4. It doesn't have to be the exchange server on How Should One Respond to a Network Break In? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    There is a good chance the whole business uses the one IP for everything, so it could be anyone at that business (or anyone accessing an unsecured wireless network they have setup, etc) that is attacking your network

  5. Re:If you want something more feminine, make it on Video Games Need A Woman's Touch · · Score: 1

    I really don't see how it's a troll. They wouldn't make this stuff if it didn't sell. Make your games the way you want them, and let the market decide what we need more of.

    One vagina for the rest of my life? I don't think so!

  10. Re:Problem Number One: on Improving Education? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    When I went to school the nerds weren't bullied for their good grades. They were bullied because they were weak and easy targets.

    TMA (too many acronyms!)

    I am still trying to figure out waht this means:
    Aruba lied to a customer calling "power loss"

  13. Re:HA! on Consumers Prefer Movies At Home · · Score: 1

    If you have a good home thetre the audio is definetly better at home. You can position the speakers a lot better, plus you can set the sound levels to the right levels. At theatres they just crank the music to max, so you don't get the dynamics. Even if they have great speakers, your ears just can't take it
    I still prefer going to the movies, it's a good excuse to get out, but I think the quality is better at home

  14. Re:Canada on Homebrew Air Conditioning for Under $25 · · Score: 1

    In our winters, it goes to -40 Celsius (or farenheit). I hardly see that being weather for whimps. That's a change of over 70 degrees a year!

    When you are ready you can slow down. No need to, until then...
    Just because being "mature" and stable are good for some people, it doesn't mean it's for everyone.
    I actually don't understand why you must grow up anyways.
    When you are ready for a relationship, you will be able to find one, doesn't matter what age....chicks dig older guys anyways...
    As David Wooderson said, in Dazed and Confused "That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age." ...more apropriately, the same holds true for women in their 20's

    More like -1, uninformed. French chicks are hot!

  17. Re:Does this mean they really are wondering.... on Pay-Per-View Downloads of TV Shows? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Somewhere thousands of lawyers are sharpening their pencils

  18. Betamax on Game Makers Could Be Liable For Violent Games · · Score: 1

    Could they not cite the Betamax decision? If Sony can't be held responsible for people taping a show with their VCR, how can a game maker be responsible for someone killing someone else? Although while we are on the topic, why does this not apply to film? Do they have to many powerful lobbyists for it to be worth going after them for?

  19. Re:What is wrong with women? on Young Women Encouraged to Go For IT · · Score: 1

    I really don't get it. Maybe he was worried when he installed IIS and any other things needed for programming, he might screw up the OS and have to start over. In this case he still has his old Home version running fine, and doesn't have to worry.
    Also, what does a CS degree have to do with this? You could do a CS degree and not touch microsoft, so you wouldn't know how to use it correctly. You should know how to analyze problems, and come up with a good process for solving it.
    I would be more worried if he had a sysadmin diploma from a college and didn't understand the concept

  20. Re:Article summary on Corporate Email Clients Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Well, what do you expect when the state Govenor owns a Hummer?

  22. Re:Google will never stop... on Google Launches Mapping Service · · Score: 1

    The directions it gave were still not very good for me. For example, a trip that streets and trips foudn a way that is 400 km, google foudn a version that's 550km. Of course, the google way is all on the main highways, and the streets and trips was on local highways, but at least I was given the ability to make that choice in streets and trips

  23. Re:You can drag the map ! on Google Launches Mapping Service · · Score: 1

    Actually, even cooler was when I tried getting directions...it panned the map to the right section, and drew in the right directions

    I think this is what you are looking for:

    Sounds pretty good. I just got a CEL on my TDI, so I am getting someone who has a vag-com to check it out for me.
    You might want to find someone near you who has one, to see if it's what you want.
