  1. Re:Save some money and take a look at Photo Mechan on Apple Unveils New Pro Products · · Score: 1

    Have you even seen the Aperture quick tours? It becomes very obvious why the requirements are so high.

  2. Re:No Fair Use on ITunes Australia Goes Live · · Score: 1

    The answer is a legal yes. Some people here need to learn how to read more carefully.

  3. Re:My Comment on Roadkill on the Convergence Highway · · Score: 1

    That's not nearly as bad, as they are products names. Infact, they combine both a distinct, yet oftern descriptive name of the product.

  4. Re:No Fair Use on ITunes Australia Goes Live · · Score: 1

    ...solely an accommodation to you...

  5. Re:Aperture prerequisites on Apple Unveils New Pro Products · · Score: 1

    I don't think they will offer a light version. What would be the point? It doesn't seem to have a feature set as big as Final Cut or Logic Audio. If you had to cut a chunk out, you'd end up with something like iPhoto.

  6. Re:Perpetuum mobile or what? on The Car That Makes Its Own Fuel · · Score: 1
    I also noticed that. Why the hell bother to place a photo in the artical if they know it has nothing to do with it?

    "llustration photo - the car in this image is not related to the story. Actual pictures of Engineuity's system are classified at this stage. (Image credit: Ford)"
    WTF?
  7. My Comment on Roadkill on the Convergence Highway · · Score: 1

    "My Videos, My Pictures, My TV, My Music." My God, it makes me want to kill My Self.

  8. Re:EULAs can be contracts on End User License Gems · · Score: 2, Funny
    "There's not much software out there that is essential[...]"
    "Or, hell, go write your own game from scratch (or buy one from an existing company) and get rid of the EULA all together."
    "Have you ever tried to negotiate? For my company, we have contact info posted on our website."

    You sir, are unrealistic and have been reading too much Ayn Rand.

  9. Re:Is this the same Bill Gates? on Bill Gates Speaks Out Against Next-Gen DVDs · · Score: 1

    He just wants you to use his DRM.

  10. Re:The greatest feature... on Firefox-based Social Browser Flock Launches · · Score: 1

    They also seemed to have replaced the reload and stop buttons with a single, double action button! So you can experience the joy of accidently reloading a page when you intended to stop from loading, just like Safari!

  11. IAWTP on Are Media Writers Biased Towards Apple? · · Score: 1

    This is a good idea. Seriously. Whenever I read any of the shit that this guy writes in the name of journalism, I feel strong need to punch him, and I'm not normally a violent person. I think there is also something about his stupid mugshot that adds to my rage, too.

  12. Re:Trend? on Wikipedia Founder Sees Serious Quality Problems · · Score: 1

    I don't see how you can possibly compare the two concepts. You're talking about forums. Wikipedia is not a forum. It also has a very different way of managing content. Sure, anyone can vandalise Wikipedia more easily than a normal forum. But it can be repaired even more easily. And since anyone can do it, you now have more people who can easily repair pages than people who want to vandalise it.

  13. "Biting the hand that feeds IT." on Wikipedia Founder Sees Serious Quality Problems · · Score: 1

    Have you not read their tagline? ;)

  14. Re:Perhaps they need a team of paid editors on Wikipedia Founder Sees Serious Quality Problems · · Score: 1

    I have used Wikipedia about 10 times in the last 2 weeks because it was the easiest way to find info, and it was also correct. Perhaps it was useless for the topic you were researching, but not for what I was looking at.

  15. Re:Perhaps they need a team of paid editors on Wikipedia Founder Sees Serious Quality Problems · · Score: 1

    That's not the same as what the other poster suggested. How is someone to know which edit is the correct or best one?

  16. More crappy editorial on Video iPod Apple's First Bad Move? · · Score: 1

    How is this a "bad move"? A bad movies implies that this will cost Apple something, not simply that it won't take off. Some of us would call this a "sensationalist headline."

  17. Re:The Death of Google? on Google Wants a Piece of AOL? · · Score: 1

    It seems to me that "insightful" commentary about any company on Slashdot is about as useful as asking my dog for directions when I'm driving. Please, leave business talk to people who know what they are talking about. OK?

  18. Re:What's the best solution? on Condensing Your Life on to a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    Only if you do it for me. It might take a while.

  19. Re:Inaccurate Analysis on Sharp LCD Display with 1,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio · · Score: 1

    But most monitors I know of don't adjust the brightness to match the colour mode. Are you saying that this one does?

  20. Re:What's the best solution? on Condensing Your Life on to a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    What about images?

  21. Re:whiskey.... tango.... foxtrot.... on HP to Install Netscape on all new PCs · · Score: 1

    It is pretty crappy, but I'd still take it any day over IE.

  22. Re:What's the best solution? on Condensing Your Life on to a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    How do you plan to encrypt it?

  23. Re:whiskey.... tango.... foxtrot.... on HP to Install Netscape on all new PCs · · Score: 1

    Netscape is based on Mozilla, and has been for several years. Netscape 7 was much better than IE 6, so I suspect that Netscape 8 is even better. But not as good as Firefox, of course.

  24. Re:Inaccurate Analysis on Sharp LCD Display with 1,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio · · Score: 1

    Yeah, if you used one of these monitors on your average home computer, photos and gradients would look horrible. The amount of banding would probably turn a really nice image into something that looks like a 256 colour GIF.

  25. Re:Contrast Ratio on Sharp LCD Display with 1,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio · · Score: 1

    Does being outside on a sunny day seem the same as being indoors with the lights on at night?
