  1. Re:Terrorists. on Your Online Marketplace for Classified Jet Parts · · Score: 2
    I'm just a little tired of the news always talking about terrorists, thankful it wasn't mentioned (yet) in this story.
    • No ... we left that up to you...
  2. Re:IE browser of choice on Opera 6.03 - The Wild Child of Browsers? · · Score: 2
    I don't want to have to remember O on Windows, and L on mozilla
    • Umm... I hate to state the obvious, but it looks like you already DO remember O on Windows and L on mozilla.
  3. "Funny, IE isn't my browser of choice ... " on Opera 6.03 - The Wild Child of Browsers? · · Score: 2
    Funny, IE isn't my browser of choice ...
    • Welcome to the minority...

  4. Not to be forgotten... on Remembering the BBS · · Score: 3, Informative
  5. It's WHO you're paying that is the problem... on CDs Want To Be Free · · Score: 3
    Musicians put in tons of effort to create a CD.
    • Yup ... and what do they get for it? Maybe 50 cents of that $15.00.
  6. Didn't we learn this lesson yet? on E3: Epic, US Army Develop Games as Recruitment Tool · · Score: 3, Funny

    Didn't we already give terrorists the keys to the castle with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000? Now we're showing them how to drive our tanks and humvees, and perform tactical raids?

  7. What about these? on E3: Epic, US Army Develop Games as Recruitment Tool · · Score: 2

    Sim Friendly Fire
    Sim Don't Ask Don't Tell

    or everybody's cult favorite...

  8. Funniest Line from the Article on File Swapping and the Analog Hole · · Score: 2, Funny
    At a minimum, within a day or two of any movie being released, bootleg videos based on camcorder recordings of showings are available on certain streets in New York City
    • Why don't they just come out and say Canal Street?
  9. Re:Some FPS on Finding the Truth Behind Cable Modem Traffic Bursts? · · Score: 2

    Actually, I think your "sig" solves the mystery. The sudden burst of traffic must be happening when Google's spiders hit their own site.

  10. Great idea ... but on Alphanumeric Phone Keypad - Fastap · · Score: 4, Interesting

    They should add a button to raise and lower the letter keys so you get the option of bringing them up for use, or recessing them when not needed.

  11. The Way out of AOHell on Disconnecting · · Score: 2

    I had an account I used to test their browser on some of the sites my company made. When I cancelled, they gave me the same pile of shit. They asked for a reason ... and after refusing to accept the first reason, I told Mary that SHE was the reason. That before the call, I wasn't sure, but now that I'd spoken with her, I was convinced. It was Mary's fault.

  12. Re:Candyman! on Matrix Reloaded Trailer Online · · Score: 2
    Every time I see Laurence Fishburn, I keep waiting for somebody to say "Candyman!"

    • Then I check IMDB and realize I'm tired and dumb ... not in that order.
  13. Candyman! on Matrix Reloaded Trailer Online · · Score: 2

    Every time I see Laurence Fishburn, I keep waiting for somebody to say "Candyman!"

  14. Re:I was looking forward to this movie... on Matrix Reloaded Trailer Online · · Score: 2

    Good! That just means there'll be one extra seat in the theatre for me. I loved the first one, and I'm sure I'll love the 2nd and 3rd.

  15. Wireless Spiderman? on Slashback: Towel, Linkage, Drafthouse · · Score: 2

    I was always under the impression that Spiderman needed the wires to fly.

  16. Re:Porn on a Cell Phone? on Cingular Filtering Porn From Wireless Web? · · Score: 2

    If stereotypes hold true ... it must be very deep in his crotch.

  17. Nobody will be able to refute it.... on Cingular Filtering Porn From Wireless Web? · · Score: 2
    can any Cingular customers reading this confirm it?
    • Didn't you know? Looking at porn makes you go blind.
  18. Re:bigger losses on PS2 Price May Fall, Gamecube Staying Put · · Score: 2
    Plus sony is good at manufacturing, so they are in a better position if the fight gets ugly.
    • Microsoft outsourced the manufacturing ... so they're in pretty good shape as far as that is concerned.
  19. Re:Way to eject CD on new iMac on Post-it Notes vs. Copy-Inhibited CDs · · Score: 2
    a work around for people who like me got cought with the soundtrack of Episode 2
    • I think you mean ... 'got caught with a Mac'
  20. Re:Not worth downloading... on Bootleg Star Wars AotC Debuts on Internet · · Score: 2

    Jeez ... some people fail to see the sarcasm. NO, I don't support the DMCA. I've just read some horrid reviews of this thing, and

  21. Re:Not worth downloading... on Bootleg Star Wars AotC Debuts on Internet · · Score: 2
    Maybe its just your being self-righteous?
    • Yeah ... because I rely on the web to boost my self-esteem.

    • Read some reviews... The movie doesn't sound that great, and based on what Lucas turned out for Episode I, I'm not holding my breath for this one.
  22. Re:Not worth downloading... on Bootleg Star Wars AotC Debuts on Internet · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I guess I wasn't clear ... that was my point.

  23. Not worth downloading... on Bootleg Star Wars AotC Debuts on Internet · · Score: 2, Funny

    This is one case where I wish the DMCA WOULD swing into action...

  24. Re:Huh?!? on States Drop Planned Presentation of Modular Windows · · Score: 2

    Actually the Judge probably has even more doubts now than she had prior to their retraction. The states say the can do something, and then say they're not going to? Believe me ... if it was a rock-solid demo, they'd wait as long as they needed to perform the demo. It's comparable to the OJ glove though... if it worked, it'd be golden ... if it failed ... it seals their fate.

  25. Umm... Maybe I'm missing something.... on MS Judge to Allow Demonstration of Modular Windows · · Score: 2

    If Windows XP embedded already exists ... and it solves the problems that the states are complaining about, then what's the problem? Just buy that.
