  1. Couldn't agree more... on Smoke and Mirrors from Sony and Microsoft · · Score: 4, Insightful

    ...and in fact, I *still* play Mario Kart (and a few others) on my SNES from time to time. And everyone that comes by the house that I can convince to play it with me agrees, it has a lot of gameplay value and stays fun for hours.

  2. Re:You may want to consider... on Creating a High-Tech Meeting/Conference Room? · · Score: 1

    Is Skype fairly reliable/stable? How often does it drop calls?

  3. Re:Finally on Security Skins: Single Sign-On with Images · · Score: 1

    You are now my personal hero!

  4. It's a... on Nokia's Linux Handheld · · Score: 1

    ... pregadous ...
    wtf?
    ...perfectly cromulent word.

  5. Finally! on Iomega Patents 850GB DVD Nano-Technology · · Score: 1, Funny

    I can fit my pr0n collection onto only 6 DVDs with this new tech! Horray!

  6. Re:Kudos to NASA and team! on Mars Rover Opportunity Working Free · · Score: 1

    If I could agree with you more, it would mean I have a mod point to give.

    Good work to the NASA team.

  7. Re:One page to rule them all... on Google's New Personalized Homepage · · Score: 1

    Except those windows are dragable like the ones on the Google personailzed page.

  8. Re:Quality! on 'Sith' Already Found Online · · Score: 1

    Guess it depends on the site you are on....

    Either way, it's getting decent reviews. People should spend the ca$h and see the matinee.

  9. Quality! on 'Sith' Already Found Online · · Score: 1

    Well, I doubt G. Lucas will loose major cash over this. Espcially when people find out the torrent is only 772.89 MB. I garuntee that ain't a great copy.

  10. AI? on Google Might Disappear in Five Years · · Score: 4, Funny

    In 2027, Google buys Microsoft. That is, the Google *AI* buys Microsoft

    Whoa. Does John Titor know about this? Better go get an IBM 5100.

  11. And don't forget... on Selling Your Attention to Spammers · · Score: 1

    ....your minimum 2 hour per case charge.

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

    ...you must be the 1 guy who bought it. =]

  13. CD Rom? on Aquarium Full of Oil For PC Cooling · · Score: 1

    The only component I found that could not be submerged was a hard drive.

    Where you able to submerge the CD ROM drive? Wouldn't that negatively effect the play speed?

  14. Clearly, the author... on 45GB Triple-Layer HD DVDs · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...of this article is out of touch with movie releases. I think he meant re-re-re-re-re-re-release of Star Wars. Then again, maybe I missed a "re."

    Quick, someone crash Goerge Lucas's computer before he reads this news!!!

  15. Same line? on The Future of Windows Graphic Technology · · Score: 4, Insightful

    For example, if you upgrade a graphics driver today, you typically have to reboot the system. One example of the 'graphics just works' mantra is one of LDDM's goals of allowing installation of graphics drivers without needing to restart the system.

    Didn't I hear the same "no rebooting" line with Win2k and with WinXP? Not that I wouldn't enjoy that, it's just that I've lost faith in these types of claims.

  16. ob Simpsons on New Awards To Compete With Nobel Prizes · · Score: 4, Funny

    "What has science ever done? Has science ever kissed a girl, won a football game, or gone to the moon?" Homer J. Simpson

  17. Does this include... on U.S. Wiretapping Surges 19% · · Score: 2, Interesting

    ..cell phones? Can they 'tap' a cell phone?

  18. Re:Understanding Mac numbers on Apple Sued over Tiger, Injunction Sought · · Score: 1

    So if is like a new OS, why not call it Mac11 or whatnot?

  19. Understanding Mac numbers on Apple Sued over Tiger, Injunction Sought · · Score: 1

    ...kind of a side note, but in the Mac world, is the 10.x to 10.y move like a Service Pack for Windows machine? I ask because it seems like it's been a large build-up and I was under the impression that this was a 'new' OS, in the same way that Win2000 was 'new' relative to the Win98. But with all the press, it seems like this is more of a Service Pack type thing.

    Thanks!

  20. Tracking BT? on Crackdown on BT Users in Hong Kong · · Score: 1

    I thought the lure of BT was that people couldn't track what you were downloading, in the respect that what I download is a .torrent file, not a .mpg/mp3/whatever. So how can they say these people have the files when all they downloaded was a torrent?

  21. Out of the.... on World Intellectual Property Day · · Score: 1

    Well if you had posted this sooner, I would have grabbed a few things on the way out of the office today!

  22. At least... on White House: No Kerry Supporters at IATC Meeting · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...the George Lucas tragedies are merely on TV.

  23. FULL Motto Quoted... on Microsoft's New Mantra - It Just Works · · Score: 1

    "It just works (with continued support and upgrades)"

  24. Since we all know... on Indy: Auto-Discover Free Music to Download · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...that this will eventually house RIAA music, why doesn't this, or any new p2p, encrypt the data?

  25. Re:What a shame on Verizon's DSL Gets Naked · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yeah, well, I bet others would suffer less if you turned off the webcam. =]
