  1. Re:Online food on Internet Grocery Shopping Slowly Gaining Ground · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why does this have to be geeks. Can it be a regular joe wanting food delivered to the front door?

    From my understanding not all geeks are fat. In fact geeks most make stick figures look fat.

  2. Re:Waste of time? on Nintendo's Iwata - Innovate or Die · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What is all this complain about today's games sucks? People posting here are obsessed with lame ass platform games. No one plays that anymore.

    Try dropping Gran Turismo 4 and go back to NES rad racer. People always bring up some puzzle game like tetris to compare the ENTIRE gaming industry.

    I am sure I can't sit thru tetris for an hour, but I'll sit thru wolfenstein for 8 hrs straight.

  4. Tekken tour still the best on Namco Almost 50, Ups Profit, Shows Taiko · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't care if Tekken 5 is coming out. Tekken 4 blows, and 5 is on the same track if the article's right.

    Let's bring back every damn character ever in a Tekken game. We should keep on accumulating, not lose a couple characters on every sequel.

  5. Environmental Concern on PlayStation Hits 100 Millionth Shipped · · Score: 3, Funny

    I am glad the PSone is still selling like hot cakes. If it was Xbox controllers selling 70 million units, the earth would have ran out of materials.

  6. Re:Sega Sports Series / Virtual Concepts on Sammy Finally To Purchase Sega · · Score: 1

    OMG I am so worried on this. I buy all my sports games from Sega. They are just superior in comparison to EA sports games... who are extremely well marketed but seriously lack substance.

    No joke, I have rented about 10 sports games in the past year combined to deserve the right to say this.

  7. Re:taking the high road on L.L. Bean Suing Competitors For Spyware-Linked Ads · · Score: 1

    We need SCO-like tactics with guerilla-sueing in this industry.

    1.) You make spyware, you get sued
    2.) You use spyware, you get sued
    3.) You profit $$$ from spyware, you get sued
    4.) Your mom likes spyware, she gets sued

    Come on now, where are the real answers to this spyware thing.

  8. Bye Bye Mac Hardware on Successful PearPC/Mac OS X Install Documented · · Score: 0, Troll

    If the performance lives up to the hype on PC hardware, then this has to be the end of Mac hardware... which are $$$$$.

    Of course there's no such thing as perfect emulators though vmware comes pretty damn close.

  9. No laptop 4 me on nVidia Announces MXM for Notebooks · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Seriously has anyone really played games aggressively on a laptop? When I need that high-power graphics, it's all desktop.

  10. Re:Seeing as they like history...... on Linus Not The Father Of Linux, According to Report · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Well the 5 year study is still far better than the M$ commercial having 1 IT guy run the entire IT department because he now has one windows 2003 server replacing many win2k boxes. Then he claims to have saved the company $$$. At the same time M$ goes about saying they help create IT jobs. Wait... your 2003 server allows 1 person to run the IT department.

  11. Direct X Question on DOOM III This Summer · · Score: 1

    I am a little confused on this linux client thing. Supposedly Doom III will utilize insane directX 9 graphics, but then directX is windows exclusive??? So is openGL being used for the linux side?

  12. Re:wow on DOOM III This Summer · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Don't celebrate yet. It's going to have to top many online games out there to be a real competitor. Look at UT2004, there is 10 modes of play for example. Single player doesn't really sell... though in this case, this game has been hyped beyond all hell.

  13. You are on crack. on Patents and the Penguin · · Score: 1

    The REAL conspiracy is IBM pushing linux forward half ass, just so they can preserve AIX.

    They are going to sell a linux box here and there and make the linux world a go-go. Then confused marketing, law suits and tech drama will follow.

  14. Re:Suspicious revenue? on Phantom Shows Pictures, Pricing, Huang Hire · · Score: 1

    Despite all the hype... if this thing do hit the market.

    I am comparing it with the Nokia Ncage.... which pretty much sums up to about 100 customers across the U.S. And maybe 20 more customers internationally.

  15. Re:more than just dramatic effect on Mars & The Teachable Moment · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Can't agree more. Real science is extremely extremely boring. I have fallen asleep in every science class at least once. And considering I am not even an X-files fan, I haven't fallen asleep on any episodes yet.

  16. Vmware is as close as it comes on Ask About Running Windows Software in Linux · · Score: 1

    Running linux + vmware allows me to run windows within linux. I know some will say WINE and other emulators are more native etc etc.

    But based on my experience, vmware is still by far the best emulation for running any windows apps on linux. Yes, that does defeat the purpose of emulation since you still need windows technically.

  17. Re:Expected by who exactly? on Xbox Gains Ground, Outsells PS2 In U.S.? · · Score: 1

    Analysts who didn't see this coming are on crack.

    When a million people already own a PS2, what's the chance that they'd buy a second PS2? Of course they are going to buy a "new" console... xbox or gamecube. So it doesn't surprise me that xbox sales will eventually outpace PS2 sales for a couple months.

  18. Confused over Fedora on Revealed: How Fedora And The Community Interact · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I am just confused by the state redhat is in over fedora.

    One day no one in redhat gives a damn about their free distro, wanting to put all the focus on advanced $erver. The next day they want to hit deep in the community again.

  19. SCSI SCSI on Plextor First With A 12x DVD+R Drive · · Score: 1

    Seeing how every drive in the market is IDE, plextor in theory can once again capture all of the market's SCSI needs. But they haven't released one DVD drive on SCSI. I am amazed.

  20. Re:wow on Anti-Missile Laser Weapon Successfully Tested · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well, I guess we WILL get to see a $10 million missile fired at a $10 tent protected by another $10 million laser.

    In the end the guy with the explosive beatup mercedes still wins.

  21. Conspiracy on Ray Lewis To Break Madden Game Cover Curse? · · Score: 1

    It's a conspiracy, EA gets player X on the cover of madden. Player X somehow gets hurt, and his schedule becomes wide open... making him more available to more advertisments, events and interviews.

    Pro athletes do more commercials during the off-season and injury time than any other time of the year.

  22. All about the FAN on Interview with ATI's soon-to-be CEO Dave Orton · · Score: 0

    If ATI can figure out how to get a superfan/cooling device installed on every ATI graphics card, I'd buy from them again.

    Until then, my Radeon 9800 pro experience has been a complete disaster. Compared to other Geforce cards I have owned... no heating problem... no driver problem.

  23. Sequels Sequels on E3 Draws Close, Companies Reveal Games Ahead Of Time · · Score: 1

    1000 games on display, 900 of them are just sequels. It's becoming super obvious with the contents of E3.

    Metal Gear games, doom III, and HL2 will wow the crowd with its graphics. They should just call it electronic graphics expo.

  24. What about MSDN windows on Microsoft Security Updates for Pirated Windows? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I am pretty sure MSDN version of windows XP don't have activation keys and such. Does that mean they can't upgrade?

  25. Re:Like always... on Nintendo, Sony Start Handheld Gaming Battle At E3 · · Score: 1

    Sony is unanimous for outstanding 2nd and 3rd generation games that eat competitors alive. Their playstation 1 and 2 IMHO had lousy 1st generation games.

    Following that trend, PSP will probably be so-so in its first 6 months.
