  1. Re:Wow.... on Hobbit Film Trailer Posted Online · · Score: 1

    I loved the Indiana Jones trilogy, not so much the second one compared to the first and third. But man that was a good trilogy.

    No that wasn't what they were talking about. That was subliminal advertising telling Frodo to enlist in the cause farther. Actually fighting to remove a invading force from your home was the point of the end of the books. Where all the other Hobbits were scared and beaten into submission the main characters returned hardened and take leadership and rally the hobbits against their foe.

  3. Lots! on Ask Slashdot: What Do You Like To Read? · · Score: 1

    I have been trying to keep ahead in The Song of Ice and Fire Series by George R.R. Martin. One of my favorite series for the longest time was The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. Didn't like the ending much but loved the rest. Easy read for just pure fun mayhem that I loved was Gotrek and Felix series in the Warhammer universe. I am kind of a Dwarf fanboy so Gotrek rocks lol. I am also trying to read the Deathstalker by Simon R. Green my friend said was pretty sweet. In short there are too many good books and not enough time.

    To be fair its considered an iPod dock. And most cars today do blue tooth tethering to any phone for streaming music and other media. And my Dodge came with a Wall outlet charger so i can charge any device...

    I worked with a guy that was a "college" educated man because of a sports scholarship. He was dumber than a box of hammers. He was building a cart to put these parts on we made (Granted I was the guy on the line at the time making these parts) and everyone was making fun of how big the wheels where on the little cart. I walked up and decided to poke some fun as well and was like why did you get such big wheels? You going off roading? He got upset and went "No! The carts need to hold 5,000 lbs of weight so I got the only wheels rated for 5,000 lbs!!" I laughed and went "Yeah but you are putting 5 wheels on these carts, 1 in each corner and one in the middle." He replied with "And?!" I said "And!! You could of got 1,000lb capacity wheels because no one wheel is supporting all the weight. And if anything 2,000lb wheels just to be safe." He stood there for about a solid minute thinking and just went whatever and went back into the office. lol

    lol. I remember in late Elementary school we would play softball and this kid was screwing around as the catcher jumping out in front of the batter to catch the ball. Well the batter got mad and was like now I am drilling this ball home. Well catcher screw around decided ill jump around from other side so he stepped around batters blind spot and tried to leap in front as the ball was coming. Yeah.... Batter swung and nailed the kid in the face with a full out swing. Our school stopped out Softball games for the year, it was rather upsetting.

    My first Razr was the original flip phone one way back when it first launched. I remember thinking it was pretty sweet then by the time my 2 years was up I hated the thing so much. The day I got my new phone I was at work and I took my Razr and dropped a steal I Beam on it from over my head it exploded it to thousands of pieces. Only after a squeal of delight and maniacal laughter did I realize that I forgot to have my contacts swapped over to my new phone.... Crap.... lol ahh youth.

  21. Re:I hate it when people say things like: on Sony Racing Apple To Develop 'a New Kind of TV' · · Score: 1

    On a side note. Plastic molding machines can be modified to make new things. A TV factory isn't a permanent TV factory. Depending on the business analysis on how much they are losing they can convert half the factory to make PSP Vita's or whatever. But it would depend on how much money they are "Losing" in the TV market. I used to work for businesses that would down play their profits by saying they are breaking even or losing money on a project then when prompted how so they break down the entire building cost, employees, utilities, shipping, and everything. Then you step back and go wait this project is paying for all that? and after they say yes you go well there are 20 other projects in here going on so does that mean those are all pure profit? Then watch them stumble for an excuse for a bit.

    Stop straying from topics to defend yourself... If it was made in secret then JooJoo didn't copy it because they wouldn't of known about it. The Galaxy probably did copy ideas from Apple but who didn't say Apple copied ideas from someone else? Apple didn't invent the first laptop but they sure do sell a bunch of those... It is all silly childish behavior Apple wants to be the only ones with a Tablet as we define a tablet today. Only way they will accept a "Competitor" is if it comes out in a circle shape and instead of icons it you had to draw a picture of what you wanted.
