  1. Uhhhh? on Spider-Man 2 Reviewed [updated] · · Score: 1

    "despite Kirsten Dunst"

    are you daft?

  2. Glad to be prgramming in VB on Microsoft Launches Visual Studio Express, VS 2005 Beta · · Score: 1, Funny

    The guy assigned to use the VB express edition of looks positively ecstatic.

  3. Or you can use this... on Microsoft Launches Visual Studio Express, VS 2005 Beta · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Or you can use this fine dot NET development enviornment.

    Free

  4. Re:Another nail in Javascript's coffin on Corporate Servers Spreading IE Virus [Updated] · · Score: 1

    JavaScript is only a language syntax. Perhaps you are referring to scriptable and client-side dynamic web sites?

  5. Re:One already exists on Building A Homebrew Robotic Lawnmower? · · Score: 1

    Can that puppy handle sloped lawns?

  6. All fun and games... on Building A Homebrew Robotic Lawnmower? · · Score: 1

    ...until the neighbor's kids look for their lost football in your yard when the home-brew robotic mower is hard at work.

  7. Re:Is it ok? on Transgaming releases "WineX" 4.0 "Cedega" · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure you can get their source from cvs any time without paying the fee.

  8. Re:Best idea for a new Star Trek. on Babylon 5 Creator Pitches Trek · · Score: 1

    You aren't kidding. I just bought the Firefly DVD set and am part way through the season. Fantastic stuff.

    At least they are making a Firefly movie :)

  9. Re:Best idea for a new Star Trek. on Babylon 5 Creator Pitches Trek · · Score: 1

    Your description sounds like StarTrek:Firefly

  10. Re:Predictions? on SpaceShipOne Flight Completed Successfully · · Score: 1

    "ISS abandoned, parts sold to private industry."

    More likely they'll scrap it entirely and let it fall into orbit. And I'll be it happens a hell of a lot sooner than 25 years from now.

  11. Re:Language Indifference on EIOffice 2004 vs. MS Office 2003 · · Score: 1

    You miss the point. Because it is written in Java it is cross-platform - that's the real benefit.

  12. Wow! on Chernobyl Becomes Tourist Hot Spot · · Score: 1

    To add up to $200, each of those 3000 people would have had to fork out a whole 6 and a half cents for a tour. :)

    Way to fuel the Ukraine economy. Yay!

  13. Am I the only one on New Darth Vader Costume Revealed in upcoming DVDs · · Score: 1

    Who is wondering how they are going to transform that boy-band punk into the towering meanace that scared the living crap out of me when I was six?

  14. Re:Okay, but how does it get to the computer? on New Internet Speed Record · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'd be more concerned with blockages. the 0's pass through fine usually, but the 1's are pointy and get stuck sometimes.

  15. Re:Okay for Malasia. on Solar-Hydrogen Eco-House · · Score: 1

    This can be accomplished, in part, by passive solar heating.

    Basically, the home's foundation is a big concrete slab that gets heated by sunlight cast through southern-facing windows. In theory this can keep a house from dropping below 50 degrees in the winter.

    Supplement with a wood burning stove and the home can be affordably heated independent of local utilities.

  16. Re:But it's not built with sustainable materials on Solar-Hydrogen Eco-House · · Score: 1

    Agreed regarding the steel. Cobb, straw bale, and rammed earth are much more eco-friendly substances to build with.

  17. Re:This Alien Shore on Implant a Chip in Your Head · · Score: 1

    A fantastic Author (my 2 cents)

  18. Will this run X in a rootless window? on Will Linux For Windows Change The World? · · Score: 1

    Much like X can run on Mac OS X?

  19. Re:And manufacturing states are better off? on The Full Outsourcing Discussion · · Score: 1

    True... somewhat. Much of Rochester's economic grief, however is due to Kodak's massive layoffs due to their inability to transition to the digital market.

  20. Clint Eastwood on 4 Years Later, The Mozilla Tide Has Turned · · Score: 1

    Now that they've selected the name, they'll have to support that Russian-only telepathic interface used in that Clint Eastwood movie back in 82.

  21. Wrong Target on RIAA Takes the Fight to the Streets · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This drives me nuts. People, remember who you are bashing. The RIAA is just a front for media companies that don't want their images tarnished.

    This is a list of RIAA members

    Remember - they *want* you to be upset at the RIAA. It is a convenient way to keep your attention focused on an antagonist, rather than the companies that it is backed by.

  22. Re:Use the web version on Intuit Apologizes to Turbo Tax Customers · · Score: 1

    Saddly, the web version works only with Internet Explorer.

  23. CSI on Microsoft Wants to Project "Cool" Image · · Score: 1

    The new MS mouse with the horizonal scroll-wheel got quite the blatant placement in last week's episode of CSI.

    So much for product placement being subtle.

  24. Re:I already have my KDE desktop in 3D on Sharp Announces 3D Laptop · · Score: 1

    Thank god, someone had the courage to make a Jurassic Park reference :)

  25. Reminds me of... on Doug Chiang's Robota · · Score: 1

    Sounds very much like what they did for the Blaire Witch project.

    I think I spent more time at their website the day after the movie than the length of the film.
