  1. Re:iPod Fan Book on Three Books On The iPod · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yeah I overclocked my iPod to hear music faster. Now everything sounds like chipmunks.

  2. Re:Cisco: Good Riddance on BusinessWeek On XORP vs. Cisco · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of winroute. Damn good IP routing software on the PC. Quite frankly I have never seen a switch IOS smarter than a full operating system. So it doesn't surprise me if XORP becomes a super success in the future.

  3. Re:Fed laws trump state laws but.... on Ohio Law Could Send Spammers To Jail · · Score: 1

    But what if someone stole my email account and started spamming others with it? Who's liable then. Emails are stolen everyday. I have received spam in the past coming from my own freaking account. It's crazy!

  4. Re:Was there any reason- on Half-Life 2 Deathmatch Confirmed · · Score: 2, Insightful

    They can max out on copy-protection I don't care. I just hated the inconvenience.

    The few days where I had the HL2 box sit 2-feet next to me, and I couldn't install it cause Steam doesn't let me. That was awefully unnecessary.

  5. Re:Creative paperweight... on 1.6TB In a Shoebox, If You've Got the Money · · Score: 0

    Is there some shareware/freeware that can tell you the LARGEST CAPACITY compatible with your motherboard? Most manufacturers are terrible at telling you what the limit is. Before you know it, you end up with a useless drive.

  6. Re:Shame on Google on China Blocking Access to Google News Site · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I am sorry but US hides news equally as much as China. All nations do it. Except it's easier to hide news among a population where sports pages are read more than frontpages.

    U.S news are often delayed, sometimes you can go to ctv.ca (common canadian site) to get news first. Most of the time the news is selectively picked for the general public. Half the time, certain news are picked cause they generate better ratings.

    Just remember, many foreign websites disclosed about the Iraq prisoner abuse first. The fact that U.S waited so long before they broadcasted this... shows that we are equally as selective as China.

  7. Re:So.... on Stress Found to Accelerate Chromosome Aging · · Score: 1

    Aaaaahhh... that explains why all the upper-management folks always look so young. All that golf stress during the 9 to 5 do them no good.

  8. Re:Hey, cool. on Clean System to Zombie Bot in Four Minutes · · Score: 1

    AutopatcherXP?! That sounds absolutely horrifying. They mind as well rename the software to "InfectMeNow".

  9. Re:Uh on Ridge, Homeland Security Head, Steps Down · · Score: 1

    I hope everyone in the administration leaves. It's about damn time they realize the little devil behind Bush. Any republican would have been a better choice.

  10. Re:FF3 on Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls Released · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They need a Final Fantasy United or something where they put 1 gigantic story line and combine every previous final fantasy game ever made. And have characters time-travel in between FF1 and 2 etc.

  11. Re:Of course... on Open Source Geeks Considered Modern Heroes · · Score: 1

    This is just one crazy comment. I honestly thought I have read just about everything on slashdot. Surprise, surprise!

    I am not agreeing or disagreeing. It's just the way you put it. Dude, you should be a marketer.

  12. Define Stress on How Do You Deal w/ User Induced Stress? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    In today's economy everyone is working to the point where they don't even know what stress is anymore. There is no "normal days" to remind us what work was supposed to be like.

  13. Re:It's not about Steam. on SteamWatch Offers Forum for Displeased Customers · · Score: 1

    What game requires Steam to install and play?

  14. Re:overrated on SNES Audio Unit As Stand-Alone Player · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oh someone beat me to it. OC Remix is insane if not superior to anything out there.

    If anything today's games don't have any original music. They just buy tracks from already existing artists. Which if I may add... mainstream is 70% hyped up over marketed garbage anyways. Good stuff is all in the underground.

  15. Re:Cyber cafes in general on Valve Wins Summary Judgment Against Vivendi · · Score: 1

    Come on now, did you really think Greece would pull off a successful video game ban? They couldn't figure out how to market the olympics or build a stadium properly. Enough said.

  16. Re:It's not about Steam. on SteamWatch Offers Forum for Displeased Customers · · Score: 1

    Don't use the word SUCKER. I bought the game and I am not happy with the installation hassle. Yes, it absolutely blows. It's inconvenient, but I am still a consumer. Not a SUCKER.

    You can't fight Steam, they already released the product. It's over! Obviously if the system was that great, they wouldn't have waited till a blockbuster hit like HL2 to deploy it. The system clearly without a shadow of a doubt SUCKS.

  17. Re:Two Words: Name Recognition on AOL Releases Netscape Beta, Based on Firefox · · Score: 1

    Corporate web applications still say Netscape and IE on their support matrix. It'll have to be another year of firefox dominance before any major web apps support it.

  18. Re:Google's big chance... on Coming soon: Google TV? · · Score: 1

    Search Engine - checked

    Gmail - checked

    Google TV - coming

    Google OS - ???

    United States of Google - ???

  19. Re:Smart choice with FLAC! We learned the hard way on Batch Converting Between Formats? · · Score: 1

    You know what I never ever understand about ripping. If you have some extremely old CDs, how in the world do you get the labels out of the songs. Wouldn't you have to label song by song manually by hand? You can do it at home, but how do big companies do so freaking many CDs?

  20. Re:Adult stem cells on Paralyzed Woman Walks Again · · Score: 1

    With each and every growing generations, more and more Americans are becoming atheist. Today's youngsters are growing up with... priest rapist, religious terrorists, freedom fighters, wars over religion. The list goes on.

    If my guess is right, a huge majority of Americans 30-40 years from now won't give a fuck anymore about politics and ethics. They'll just go research crazy, cause everything else is media-driven, and only science is real.

  21. Re:replacement for soviet joke? on In Korea, Email Is Only For Old People · · Score: 1

    OMG stop making fun of Koreans. We americans have the absolute worst grammer on the planet. If anything we should be proud they are using our language.

  22. Re:Where's the Form editor? on Microsoft Offers Beta of Visual Studio 2005 · · Score: 1

    That's what I always wondered. The world of VB was lightyears ahead of VC++. Press one button to compile an entire form, damn VB was good. Of course things might be different now, as I haven't touched visual studio since 6.0. I thought .net was the future and that was it. Why are they going back to 2005 year count etc?!

  23. Re:silent? on Fanless Media Center Box · · Score: 1

    I am on the currently returning my 3rd ATI radeon 9800 pro card in 1 year due to overheated fans one after another. Noise as with most desktop users is not the problem. Effective heating is.

    I am convinced there is just not enough real cooling solutions for PCs. When I hear media-center PC, I am immediately horrified with the thoughts of returns and RMAs.

  24. Re:Prior Art? on Sonar device Helps Blind Navigate · · Score: 1

    Supposedly dolphins are the same? Though they both have eyes. Talk about sensory overload.

  25. Re:Women and children on Former Turkish DMOZ Editor Draws 10 Months In Jail · · Score: 1

    You can always take the gender-bender approach. Shoot them first, then say "oops, I thought that was a guy!" There, now you are innocent.
