  1. angry on Cheating Online Gamers · · Score: 1

    People cheat to make you angry ;)

    They're just trolls, basically.

  2. Re:Uni Students? on Uni Students Slammed For Music Swapping · · Score: 1

    fair dinkum mate!

  3. Re:hmm. on Abandoned & Little Used Airfields · · Score: 4, Funny

    "OK Kids, off the playground, a plane's about to land" ??

  4. 430 screenshots! on Command and Conquer Generals Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    hardly worth playing the game now...

  5. overseas users on Do-Not-Email Registries? · · Score: 1

    will it work for people outside the US?

  6. dupe on Hark! I Hear a Dropped Packet! · · Score: 0, Redundant

    judging by the previous comments (and the very similar story on the front page), I think this story may be a duplicate

  7. my tips on Leonid Meteor Shower Observation Tips · · Score: 3, Funny

    "make sure you are looking at the sky"

  8. porn on Is W3C's P3P Good Privacy? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    this way people will never know I'm downloading porn!

  9. Re:Founders not necessarily necessary on Managing Your Company To Death · · Score: 1
    how many companies (ok, most of them are the usual derelict dotcoms) have evaporated into thin air in the last two years despite the founder still leading the company ?


    ...or maybe because the founder is still leading the company ;)

  10. buy a new network card on Using MAC Address to Uniquely Identify Computers · · Score: 5, Insightful

    not banned anymore :D

  11. Re:Its not just in software development . . . . on Why are Businesses Willing to Spend More for Software? · · Score: 1

    so people are essentially saying "we didn't give you enough money"??

    I'd imagine it's not a very large step from that to "Here, please let me give you more money!"

    ;)

  12. Re:I have two problems with evolution on Evolution - Beyond the Popular Science · · Score: 1

    1) Why do you think there has to be "increasing information".

    A decrease in information would be devolution - not evolution :)
    If the information was to remain static, it wouldn't be evolution either, because nothing would be changing.

    2) What do you mean by "information" anyway?

    I guess this is genetic information

  13. Re:Having just recently been to New Zealand.... on NZ Firm Shows Anti-DDoS Tool · · Score: 1

    A pity about the rugby eh ;)

  14. Re:Why not diffrent service? on Peer-to-Peer Networks Blocked in NZ · · Score: 1

    We don't have T1's in NZ, and the prices of dedicated lines outside of inner-city areas are prohibitively expensive (perhaps approximately 10-15 times the amount of 128k dsl).

    There are other options (wireless is the main one) but they aren't available in enough areas to be really competitive.

  15. Re:Gnutella? on Peer-to-Peer Networks Blocked in NZ · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's not "blocked" as such, the p2p ports are just allocated a smaller pool of bandwidth than the rest.

  16. Re:Warning on Digital Biology · · Score: 1

    uhh... but computers (etc) have a significant amount of design built into them ;)

  17. Re:My Perspective on Europe Continues Work on Cybercrime Treaty · · Score: 1

  20. Re:This line is a bit odd, isn't it? on Rowing Across the Atlantic · · Score: 1

    we don't say "circle jerk" in nz :P
    it'd be more like "soggy biscuit"

  21. Re:Another Concern on Yahoo Serious Fights Yahoo! trademark · · Score: 1

    Just FYI

    Dick Smith started up a chain of electronics stores called (unsurprisingly) "Dick Smith Electronics"...
