  1. Re:Graphics rarely determine a "winner" on Third Place Is Fine By Nintendo · · Score: 1

    You forgot about the Dreamcast in number 3.

  2. I like this better... on Using Jet Engines to Cool Servers · · Score: 4, Funny

    http://www.asciimation.co.nz/beer/

    Yeah, real innovative HP. *yawn*

  3. So... on Gamers Don't Care About In-Game Ads · · Score: 1

    Which game publishing company paid for this delightful dandy to be placed on the front page?

  4. Re:Manager called 911 on Best Buy Invaded By Blue Shirt Improv Artists · · Score: 1

    It was in New York City. You expect people not to panic?

  5. Lots of Opportunities on Qualifications for Summer Internships? · · Score: 1

    You should probably get with your school's Career Services (or similar) office to start looking. They keep a listing of Internship Partnerships the school has with various organizations.

    If you're feeling social, you could always go around to the small businesses in the area and offer your services to develop a small piece of software for them in exchange for their gratitude and a little college credit.

    Then there are always the big guys: NASA, the national labs, large hospitals, etc. They always seem to be looking for interns to do something.

    All it takes is a little digging.

  6. Come on.. on LA Attorney Sues Rockstar Over Hot Coffee · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Is this when we see a dozen other law firms file law suits against all major software houses for not disclosing any other "easter egg" during the past 10 years?

    Give me a break. I'll pass on the kit-kat.

  7. Re:one time, for security's sake on Has Corporate Info Security Gotten Out of Hand? · · Score: 1

    That's when you ask to speak with their superior.

  8. Re:They truly are "lost" on MythBusters - The Lost Experiments · · Score: 1

    I viewed it fine in Firefox.

  9. Re:If BellSouth is your ISP... on BellSouth Will Charge Providers For Performance · · Score: 1

    I switched from BellSouth DSL over a month ago.

    Their monthly rate was about $80/month for 1.5Mbps DSL (including the obligatory phone line).

    The local cable provider was offering 4Mbps service for $30/month, no other service required.

    It seemed like an obvious decision to me, especially after BellSouth kept screwing with my account for months and I was offline more than I was online.

  10. Re:google search on Frank Forchione on Felony For Refreshing a Web Page? · · Score: 1

    Indeed, it is a crime. Yet there are far better things the Prosecutor could be committing legal system resources to resolving other than a kid telling his friends to refresh a website and kids not attending school. I'm most certain the City of Canton will become a far better place to live once these cases are handled.

    I guess he's just too much of a pussy to deal with the actual criminals present in Canton.

  11. Why? on Run Linux as a Windows Screensaver · · Score: 2, Informative

    Damn Small Linux already runs on top of Windows.

    Of course running Linux on Windows is similar to driving a BMW around inside of a Triumph.

  12. hmm... on Dell XPS 'Gaming' PC Review · · Score: 1

    No shit? Really? Preinstalled programs causing problems?

    ALERT THE INTERNETS!

    Standard operating procedure in any shop that's worth a damn is to WIPE THE DRIVE of any mass-manufactured system you buy and put a fresh install of whatever on it.

    Seriously...you want to write a review about something, yet you fail to do a process which most of us will do without thinking about it.

  13. My Brain on Where is the Killer Calendar? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't need a damn piece of software to tell me what I have to do next, I'm quite capable of remembering on my own.

  14. Re:One (perhaps four) Word(s) (Plus some others) on Four GPU Motherboard · · Score: 1

    That website is fucking awful.

  15. Damn Straight on Just a Phone? · · Score: 1

    [i]I'd sure prefer better sound and simpler menus to the useless camera and gimmicks built into my current phone.[/i]

    How about longer battery life and increased coverage from service providers.

  16. Re:ridiculous on HS Students Steal SSNs to Prove They Can · · Score: 1

    Crime, even for a good reason, is still crime, and if we don't enforce the law all the time, we might as well not inforce it at all.

    Perhaps you could learn how to spell first, the word is enforce. So much for credibility.

    Not to mention there's a huge difference between demonstrating that a vulnerability exists so that intangible property "may" be stolen, then notifying the proper people and breaking into someone's house and stealing physical property for self-gain.

    "Cyber Crime" law, along with a ton of other useless laws need to be rewritten or just repealed.

  17. Re:Imagine the Possibilities on India Launches World's First Stereo Imaging Satellite · · Score: 1

    Sure they will...she'll just look like the Princess in Super Mario Bros.

  18. At IU... on Best Wireless SSIDs You Have Seen? · · Score: 1

    I encountered the SSID "MyBallsHurtFromTheHerpes"

  19. Other Uses on Recycling Gone Wrong: The AOL Throne · · Score: 2, Informative

    You could also use those CDs to create a neutron modulator...

  20. Re:Interesting on Creative Zen Micro Ships Today · · Score: 1

    I get rated Troll for this when an AC further down gets rated Interesting for the same thing? Here Interesting indeed...

  21. Off Topic on Creative Zen Micro Ships Today · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    You're so far off topic it scares me

  22. Re:Interesting on Creative Zen Micro Ships Today · · Score: 1

    "Micro" Dimensions:
    Item width: 2 inches
    Item height: 3.3 inches
    Item depth: .7 inches

    Zen Touch (20gig) Dimensions:
    4.12 inches by 2.7 inches by 0.866 inches

    Not by much...

  23. Interesting on Creative Zen Micro Ships Today · · Score: 0, Troll

    I wonder why the 20gig version costs less than the 5gig version. I would rather buy a unit with 4 times the storage and pay $12 less than the 5gig unit.

  24. well on How has the USA PATRIOT Act Affected You? · · Score: 1

    It's a major bitch to open a new bank account now.
    Not to mention obtaining/transferring a driver's license...

  25. Interesting on Experiences w/ Software RAID 5 Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    I was very intrigued by your sudden interest with data integrity and redundance after just buying Maxtor drives...
