  1. do not want on iFixit Tears Down Microsoft's Kinect For Xbox 360 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Do not want... xbox* has been and always will be a cancer to be avoided. Simply having the name Microsoft attached seals the deal even after that, in my book.

    Both are hook, line, and sinker in someone's eyes.
    There are those that think calling it Myanmar is PC, then there are those that think calling it Burma is PC.

    Yeah, it was a joke.
    Otherwise, it'd be TRUE.

    Alright buddy, it's time to take the star wars dvds off of autoplay, and back away from the computer...

  5. Re:The answer is... on Will Netflix Destroy the Internet? · · Score: 1

    I'm about the same.. used to be on my Sony bluray player, but it's so much more detailed on the Wii. Eh, only 9-10 bucks a month, can't beat that price. The quality is amazing really, imho.

  6. Re:So, how long before... on Will Netflix Destroy the Internet? · · Score: 1

    You must have missed that "scalable" and "fault tolerant" wording in the description of the internet.
    You know, the very REASON it exists.

    Yep... obviously the movie ate them all! :)

    Eh, it's just as stupid as people thinking that the harry potter series needs to be banned because it promotes non-christian values.

    What the hell are you spouting on about?

    The only part he'd get is the i-i-i... the rest the question still stands.

  11. Re:It's been the cost on Are Consumer Hard Drives Headed Into History? · · Score: 1

    Speaking of servers, it seems that some of the larger SAN/NAS manufacturers are starting to use SSD as a tier... SSD -> 15K SCSI -> SATA is the tier line-up I've seen. It's actually lighning fast for tier 1, but you know damned well there's lots of redundancy to compensate for the write-death. The write speed is ridiculously fast, I have to admit.

  12. Re:Show me the price of 3 TB of SSD. on Are Consumer Hard Drives Headed Into History? · · Score: 1

    It does no good to try and base things on something that's not even OUT yet.

  13. Re:where's the hybrid? on Are Consumer Hard Drives Headed Into History? · · Score: 1

    Talk about confusing people buying a system at their local Best Buy/Staples/Walmart.
    The label:

    OS Space: 5G
    Application Space: 180G

    Versus:
    250Gb harddrive

    Because you know they'd reduce the drive size to compensate for the SSD price. They'd also screw up the label naming, like in my example... and TOTALLY confuse the consumer.

    When a majority believe something, it becomes real. As you said.
    So... it is real until Morpheus pops in to give us a pill, or something.

    There was no battle. As soon as Sarah Palin became the vice-president elect with John McCain, poor McCain had an anchor on his leg that was like an angry pitbull in a china store.
    Pretty much, all President Obama had to do was not fall into her snide tirade fest, and all would go fine. The whole "angry PTA member" facade doesn't help, either.

    Dude, the world is more than "conservative" and "liberal".
    Try acting like a normal human and realize that you don't categorize into such broad strokes, then choose your enemies.

    True patriotism is choosing the person that will help your country achieve what it truely was designed for. It's not about picking conservative, nor liberal. I know there's going to be a billion people frothing at the mouth, and attempting to call me a democrat. I'm American, and damned proud of it. I'm neither republican, nor democrat.
    It's fun to watch people walk away grumbling when you don't choose a side. Try it sometime, and life will get better for you.

    The oddest thing is, the whole 'russia from my house' thing is an ultra-light nudge of a joke compared to everything else she actually did do.

    More of a possessive.
    It will have the corollary, so an apostrophe is put into place.
