  1. Re:not to be an asshole... on Windows 7: The Missing Manual · · Score: 1

    People who have shit to do.

  2. Re:recommend free alternatives on Software Piracy At the Workplace? · · Score: 1

    The built in zip handler in XP is crap.

  3. Anything like this for maths? on New Science Books To Be Available Free Online · · Score: 1

    Are there any good, free resources for learning Algebra and up?

  4. Depends.. on OpenOffice Vs. Google Apps · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Google Apps gives me what I want: A browser-based place to write stuff and make spreadsheets and store the documents where I can access them whenever I like.

    Thus, Google Apps is fine for me.

  5. Re:What? on NewYorkCountryLawyer Debates RIAA VP · · Score: 3, Insightful

    That's cute. If you weren't an AC it would be even cuter.

    Dance for me, monkey!

  6. Re:None of which... on LiveJournal Says Users are Responsible for Content of Links · · Score: 0

    I take it you're not into sarcasm much, hm?

  7. Re:What are they whining about? on New York Taxi Drivers To Strike Over GPS · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well, for one, there's no way in hell I would work in a place where there's a camera in my office.

  8. Re:At Apple... on How Far Should a Job Screening Go? · · Score: 1

    I suspect that at Apple, the drug test is to ensure a MINIMUM drug usage, not discourage it.

  9. Re:Read the quest text on How They Made World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    The quest cinematic/scripted event when you turn in a nightmare engulfed object to Keeper Remulos in Moonglade is badass.

    Malfurion is summoned from the Emerald Dream and has dialog with Remulos, which ends with "Remulos, I am being drawn back... Tyrande... send her my love... Tell her I am safe. Tell her... Tell her I will return... Farewell..."

  10. Re:"Story should always drive the game" on How They Made World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    "Rajaxx! Remember when I said I'd kill you last?! I lied.."

  11. Re:DVD is going to stick around on If DVD Is Dead, What's Next? · · Score: 1

    And we're glad we have you to save us, dipshit.

  12. Great! on Message Storm Knocks NYSE Offline · · Score: -1, Troll

    Now that we've discussed this to death for the last six days on NANOG and similar lists, Slashdot and its various clueless idiots can have at it.

    Go!

  13. Re:Concalls... on Cubicle Privacy · · Score: 1

    You know,

    c) Headsets would mess up her hair.

    is a pretty common complaint in call centers, and its a reality that call center administrators have to deal with, especially call centers that hire a lot of middle-aged women. As a result, a lot of call centers make available several varieties of headset, one of which goes around your ear and has no "over the head" portion.

  14. Re:Oh... on The Feasibility of Star Wars Tech · · Score: 1

    Yeah, that was me. =]

  15. Re:tech talk on The Feasibility of Star Wars Tech · · Score: 1

    All I'm saying is that I think it takes a lot more of a person to pull out a sword and have to contend with the fact that the other guy might be a whole lot better than you than to pull out a gun and let fly with a hail of bullets.

  16. Re:tech talk on The Feasibility of Star Wars Tech · · Score: 1

    I'd say that fighting with swords is more civilized because its a whole lot harder to take a cheap shot at someone from 100 yards with a sword. You have to have the balls to walk up to the person and start swinging, and hope they don't kick your ass asap.

  17. Re:Jedi Arena on The Feasibility of Star Wars Tech · · Score: 1

    I remember my brother and I hitting one another in the face with the paddle controllers for hours after particularly heated games.

  18. Jedi Arena on The Feasibility of Star Wars Tech · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Actually, I enjoyed Jedi Arena

  19. Re:Vinyl? on Build Your Own Rotary-Dial Cell Phone · · Score: 1

    Its making a comeback, mate.

  20. Vinyl? on Build Your Own Rotary-Dial Cell Phone · · Score: 1

    I wonder if the original poster is aware that vinyl is still alive and kickin'?

  21. Re:Marketing/Management Material on Alek's Christmas Lights: Humbug · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I guess you're unfamiliar with a small, mostly unheard-of school called MIT?

  22. Re:Flash Coffee and Ice Cream on Flash Mobs a Threat to Security? · · Score: 1

    110 students went to a restaurant simultaneously and the restaurant did several hundred dollars in revenue that they otherwise would not have, and the manager got pissed off about it?

    Did you tell him to go suck a cock?

  23. Re:I Do Both, But Not Simultaneously on Live Nightclub Hacking · · Score: 1

    Traktor DJ Studio is pretty nice, especially if you have one of the hardware interfaces for it, but nothing compares to spinning 12" records.

  24. Re:Ummmm on The New MP3.com: 3rd Time a Charm? · · Score: 1

    and, as I said in another thread, will output phono, line, or SPDIF, and all three work very well.

  25. Re:Ummmm on The New MP3.com: 3rd Time a Charm? · · Score: 1

    If you want to play 78s, then get a Numark TTX1, which, if you press the 45 and 33 buttons at the same time, goes to 78 rpm.
