  6. No Chucky youre not getting any money! on Child's Play Auction Raises $82,100 · · Score: 1

    Lets hope that the Child's Play Auction don't use the raised money for dolls.

  7. Anti Anti-Alias on What Makes a Good Web Font · · Score: 1

    From The article: "Modern operating systems such as Windows XP and Mac OS 10 give users the option to display anti-aliased text as standard. This is a good thing, and it makes reading and working on your machine much more comfortable and pleasing to the eye."

    I personally don't like anti-aliasing on "text fonts" for my monitors and I remove the anti-aliasing. This goes for a 19" 1280x1024 CRT-screen and my laptops 15,4" 1920x1200. If the font is less than 20 pixel wide the anti-aliasing make the overall impression of the font too blurry (the ration between clean pixels and anti-aliasing blur is to low). For larger fonts (for e.g. headlines) I like the anti-aliasing.

  8. Re:UK buyers screwed again? on Xbox360 Pricing, 2 Models at Launch · · Score: 1

    if the government has a problem with that, they can kick me the fuck out.
    And where do you want to go?

    Where I live I pay 60% tax on the last dollar I earn. I pay 25% sales tax. One gallon of gas cost nearly 6 dollars. Cars have 200% sales tax and on top of that we still pay around 300 dollars a year in car-tax.

    But... I get free healthcare and free education.

  10. Re:Redundant redundancy on PGR3 Achieves Near Photo Realism · · Score: 1

    Actually one should marks this redundant and five should mark this as underrated.

  11. Blur? on Majority Of Customers Prefer Blu-Ray · · Score: 0

    "cool name and blueness"
    But its Blu-Ray not Blue-Ray

    Blur is just as close to Blu as Blue

    "Would you like this new super-duper HiTech++ system using special blur rays, sir?"

  12. Blue Ray on Majority Of Customers Prefer Blu-Ray · · Score: 3, Funny

    Maybe people who voted actually wanted these rays: http://www.crystalinks.com/bluecrystals.html

    FYI: Google gives a ration 1:3 for "blue-ray" vs "blu-ray".

  13. Good solution on The Floating PowerBook · · Score: 1

    Your solution is much smarter than levitating the laptop if you like to use an external keyboard. Levitating hides external keyboard if you need the screen to be close to you.

    I use the same type of solution - but actually I just bought a cookbook holder. This solution is stabile and works for most of my coworkers.

    88%?

  15. Mod the stories on Florida Man Charged For Stealing Wi-Fi · · Score: 5, Insightful

    No we should simply just have a moderation on the entire posting:

    ... and then we could draw some statistics on the editors.

  16. Why? on EU Says No To Software Patents · · Score: 1

    Seriously: why?

  17. Re:Not sure about this. on Real Wood iPod · · Score: 1

    I respect carpenters a lot, and I admire that the handwork looks like this is done excellent. But it still look like something the for the 60+ segment.

    The are so many cool sorts of wood that designers use today and glossy coated redwood is not one of them. That is something for Laura Bush or your Grandma.

  18. Brown exp on 3.9 Million Citigroup Customers' Data Lost · · Score: 1

    For people like me (non US) who did not know what this "Brown"-stuff was all about:
    http://louisville.bizjournals.com/louisville/stori es/2002/02/04/daily35.html

    "At UPS, brown is more than a color -- it's a tangible asset that people associate with all the things that are good about our brand,"
    Shit... (no puba intended) this reminds me the film "Coming to America" (http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0094898/quotes)whe re Akeem says "When You Think of Garbage, Think of Akeem".

  19. The Alphabet Song? on BSA Reacts to 'New' BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    The market is already floating with illegal copies of the Alphabet Song, but nobody has been jailed. I guess the Roman's IP-laywers died a couple of milleniums ago.

  20. Two dilemmas on BSA Reacts to 'New' BitTorrent · · Score: 4, Interesting

    But what if you and your 500,000 friends stand in line and each hold a letter and each will show it to people for $12/500,000 per letter. Are you infringing on the copyright?

    What if you and your 10,000 friends each stand a in line and each of you are holding a paper citing a line from the book. Are each of you just using your citation rights?

    The heat is on. I guess the Xbox fanboys finally will live up to their name.

  23. Box review on Mac OS X Tiger Released and Analyzed · · Score: 5, Funny

    You know it is Apple related software when the review uses an entire page to comment on the look of the cardboard box.

    The little town (Vedbæk) is one of the richest (http://hjem.get2net.dk/rungsted.roklub/huse_langs _stranden2.htm) towns in Denmark. It was one of the richest before Microsoft entered (http://www.microsoft.com/danmark/jobs/vedbak.asp) , it was one of the richest before the company (http://www.sinca.com/noticia_aquiere_navision.htm l) that Microsoft bought started, and it will remain one of the richest after Microsofts leaves.

  25. Re:Nicotine patch for batteries? on Nanotech Brings Battery Life Extender for Mobiles · · Score: 1

    No no. You're getting it all wrong.

    This thing really works. If you buy it, stick it on you phone and tell all of your friends about, it will soon save battery time on your phone.

    First it costs some battery time to tell everybody about it.

    Later it costs some battery time to try to call your friends again and again because they unfortunally lost the connection.

    But in the end you will have _plenty_ of battery power - more than you need.
