  1. DLC? really? on Some Players Want Day-1 DLC, Says BioWare · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Or you could, I dunno, release the whole fucking game all at once.

  2. Audi = Volkswagen on Volkswagon Shows Off Self-Driving Auto-Pilot For Cars · · Score: 2

    Given that Audi and Volkswagen (that's wagen, with an E) are the same company, it's not surprising that they're sharing the technology behind this.

  3. Re:LOL@"Progressives" on Congresswoman and Staff Gunned Down · · Score: 1

    [Citation Needed]

  4. Re:complete with tracking and statistics on Google URL Shortener Opened To the Public · · Score: 1

    Not only that, but it links you to some cheesy Sorority Life application on Facebook.

  5. Re:Never read on King's Dark Tower Series To Be Adapted For Film, TV · · Score: 1

    Definitely pick up at least the first book. I was hooked after that one and had to finish the whole thing.

  6. Re:Never read on King's Dark Tower Series To Be Adapted For Film, TV · · Score: 1

    The fifth book was my favorite of the whole series.

  7. Re:But... on Spitzer Telescope Sheds Light On Colony of Baby Stars · · Score: 1

    Nah, this effort was perfect. The people who don't get it are just dense.

  8. Too big? on Pittsburgh, Seattle Announce Interest In Google's Fiber Trial · · Score: 1

    Did the miss the section of the site that says Google is looking for communities between 50,000 and 500,000 people? I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh and Seattle might be a bit larger than that.

  9. Video conference on CrunchPad Being Re-branded As JooJoo · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you saw any of the video conference (live blog at http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/07/fusion-garage-crunchpad-video-conference-liveblog/), that dude even looks like a scheister.

  10. YouTube on Text Comments Out In YouTube "National Discussion" of Health Care · · Score: 1

    Wait, they put out a call on YouTube and they expected anything other than this as a response? It's *YouTube*, wtf did they expect? Have they never read the comments section on any random video on the site?

  11. Tethering? on AT&T Says 7.2Mbps Wireless Coming This Year · · Score: 1

    Of course, you still won't be allowed to use your iPhone as a modem (yes, I know it's possible, just not approved by AT&T).

  12. Old? on BPA Leaches From Polycarbonate Bottles Into Humans · · Score: 4, Informative

    Isn't this extremely old news? Companies have been making BPA-free plastic bottles now for a long long time, including baby bottles.

  13. Harmony remotes on Universal Remote's Days Are Numbered · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The person who wrote this article has clearly never used a Logitech Harmony remote. Best remote I've ever owned.

  14. Grammar police on Spider Bite Allows Man To Walk Again · · Score: 1

    That article was painful to read. Don't people proofread things anymore?

  15. owned. on MediaSentry & RIAA Expert Under Attack · · Score: 1

    So much for those arguments.

  16. Re:Fines for those in NZ on International Spam Ring Shut Down · · Score: 5, Insightful

    A $200k fine for people involved in a business doing $400k/month in transactions. Yup, that'll teach 'em!

  17. Re:13" MP on Apple Announces New MacBook, Pro, Air · · Score: 2, Informative

    And with a slower CPU (2.0ghz vs 2.4ghz on the lower model), no secondary GPU 9600M GT, and no expresscard slot.

  18. Re:Not a game. So? on New Racing Simulation Distances Itself From Gamers · · Score: 1

    I was going to say something similar. Is this an attempt to be the car racing version of Xplane or MSFS, but with a multi-player element?

  19. Re:Unimpressed. on First-Ever Photo Tour of Defcon's Network Center · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It's also probably set up for the conference, and taken down when it's over. Why would you bother neatly tying your cables and making everything proper lengths if you're going to just take it apart a week later? I'd be willing to bet most of their setup fits in that transit case under the firewall and switch.

  20. Re:Hmmmm on Blizzard Beefs up World of Warcraft's Recruit-a-Friend · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yes, because paying 5000g for that faster flying mount that essentially cuts down on the wasted travel time in the game doesn't equal "permitting moneyed people to spend their money in order to save time".

  21. Re:Reform No Child Left Behind Act on How Do You Fix Education? · · Score: 1

    The school district I live in actually just removed nurses from schools as a cost-cutting measure.

  22. Re:Moose repellant on American Solar Challenge Racers Head For Canada · · Score: 2, Funny

    If m00se get involved, I'd keep an eye out for some people being sacked.

  23. Re:It's mildly shocking... on Apple Files Suit Against Psystar · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I was thinking the same thing, but Apple might have waited until they were sure they could win the suit.

  24. Re:Roll for Initiative. on Dungeons and Dragons Online Module 7 Rears its Head · · Score: 2, Funny

    I rolled a 42.

  25. Re:Link with pic on Ghostly Ring Found Circling Dead Star · · Score: 2, Informative

    Uhh, the link the summary has a link to the pic as well It's right at the top of the article...
