  1. Re:The clock is ticking on Kazaa Continues to Evolve · · Score: 1

    Yes, but it also has new illegal uses because of that. For example, just searching for Windows XP Professional turns up an ISO. Heck, I can get the leaked UT2k3 beta on there I wanted. Anything you want. Of course, I'm not suggesting they should shut it down. Do something. I don't know what.

  2. Looks OK from the trailer on Review: Spirited Away · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'll probably see it if it rolls around to my part of the country. Now, what movie I'm really looking forward to from the trailer is Comedian. Pretty hilarious.

  3. Re:The ask googler's are full of crap on Where to Ask if not Ask Slashdot? · · Score: 1

    Maybe the web has just gotten more comprehensive (well, I know it has). I dunno. I can't even think of a question that couldn't be answered somewhere else.

  4. Re:DeNiro seeks OSCAR Vehicle on De Niro Seeks Science-Oriented Film Scripts · · Score: 1

    Memento didn't. Should've, though.

  5. Re:Memento? Explain this one. on De Niro Seeks Science-Oriented Film Scripts · · Score: 1

    Science, because.. uhh, it's so damn good that.. you need science to explain it :D ::shrug:: I dunno.

  6. Re:The lost BBS emoticon... on The First Smiley :-) · · Score: 1

    I just use :: ::. As in, ::grins::, or ::rolls around::, or ::jumps:: .

  7. Re:Slashdotted? on Discarded AT&T Microwave Bunkers For Sale · · Score: 1

    This happens with nearly every page, yet people continue to be amazed when there are no comments but the site is /.ed. Really, it happens all the time. Let's move on? :D

  8. Re:Hmmm... on Larry Wall On Perl, Religion, and... · · Score: 1

    Uh.. don't you think it's likely that Israel is a nation BECAUSE of what was predicted in the Bible? People wanted to fufill that? Everything else is pretty vague.

    "Nation will rise up against nation."
    Ohh! War! Gee golly, Jesus sure was a smart guy.

    "Many will go here and there to increase knowledge."
    People want to know more, so they go to places where there's knowledge? Uh, yes. People just wanted to learn in the past 100 years. That's right.

    Any organized religion is so disgusting it makes me sick. If you were brought up to believe in the Almighty Goat of Zorah, then you would. Maybe, maybe some god exists, like a clockmaker god who just set the Universe in motion, but I even doubt that.

  9. Re:Duplicate story on Case Modders - Think Small · · Score: 1

    /. editors didn't screw up. They got a submission that they liked, and posted it. I doubt they read the earlier post at all.

  10. Re:I'm sick of people complaining about the price. on Mac OS X 10.2 "Jaguar" Reviews Pour In · · Score: 1

    Actually, I use Windows. I'm not sure about that "Windoze" business.

  11. Re:This is... on RIAA Sues Backbone ISPs to Censor Website · · Score: 1

    Well.. honestly, it's not that much better outside of the US. Jesus Christ, these people are in Chinia. If this passes, then I don't think you're safe anywhere. It might not be worth it to move.

  12. Re:Failure to understand on A Private European Internet? · · Score: 1

    Were this to happen (and it won't, of course), they would probably make new protocols for it. I'm certain someone could still connect it the Internet anyhow, though.

  13. Re:What?! on Sony Proudly Rolls Out Spyware/Restrictions System · · Score: 1

    You know, just because someone's opinion is different, doesn't mean it's wrong.

    Personally, I prefer the controllers in this order:

    Dreamcast
    X-Box
    N64
    Gamecube
    PS2
    PS1

  14. Re:Windows and the Hidden CLI on GUIs for Everyone · · Score: 1

    People don't want to use computers, they want to do things, like write something, or read something. They don't want to configure their computer, or utilize the power of the machine. People don't need a command line.

    Only some people do, and that's probably why a lot of people use Linux. It's available to those who need/want it.

  15. Re:"that poltergeist trick" on New Way To Grade Decay of Computer Installations · · Score: 1

    Well, that's a big lie. It happens to me all the time on my W2K box with a ball mouse.

  16. Re:Antigravity exists already on Boeing Joins In Anti-Gravity Search · · Score: 1

    Except that in this case, Murphy's law would just override itself, because the worst thing that could happen is.. the cat would land on it's feet. You *don't* want that to happen more than you don't want the buttered side to hit.

    Something like that.. just a thought.

  17. Re:Palermo scale on A Rock Moves In Space · · Score: 1

    I'd tell him, but he doesn't exist. :)

  18. Re:what's the big fuss? on Cowboy Bebop Film's American Premiere Announced · · Score: 1

    Hm. I disagree. While I admit to not having seen the subtitled version, I think the English dubbed version is nearly I perfect. The cuts may effect the viewing experience, but the acting is surely not bad in the English version.

  19. Re:Perhaps this suggests a trend on Where are the 'Construction Set' Games? · · Score: 1

    Hm. It may be that you've been playing for so long it's just boring, or a sense of novelty for the olden days of gaming. In my opinion, though, I'm having more fun now than ever gaming, especially with the increasing popularity of LAN parties. The realism doesn't bother me at all. In fact, I tend to stray more torwards realism..

  20. Re:Music Construction Software on Where are the 'Construction Set' Games? · · Score: 1

    Fruityloops 3 is pretty handy. It's pretty easy to use, and in the right hands, music can be of almost professional quality. There's a free demo that lets you export to mp3 but not save (so you can't go back and edit it).

  21. Re:Absurd design choices on GM's Billion-Dollar Fuel-Cell Bet · · Score: 1

    Your muscles are in your legs, aren't they? Your heart, stomach and lungs are at the core, much like the hydrogen tank and fuel cells.

  22. Re: Some Dream ... on Nintendo Hires Walking Gamers · · Score: 1

    Hm. They get $100 a day for 6 hours of work.

  23. Re:So you feel better about yourself.... on Alternative-Fuel Vehicle Recommendations? · · Score: 1

    Hm. You do know that hybrids use just gasoline and nothing else? Basically fuel efficient vehicles.

  24. Re:More sequels? on Review: Men In Black II · · Score: 1

    Memento.

  25. Re:My two favorites: on A Selective History Of The Keyboard · · Score: 1

    See, I really like how the Microsoft Naturals look, and feel (when just resting my hands), but when I start typing .. I just can't do it. See, there are just a few keys that are the right hand's that I hit with my left (y), and when the two sides are seperated, I just end of hitting blank space when reaching for the 'y'.

    Ar. Oh well.
