  1. Re:A Beautiful Mind... on Schizophrenia Experiences and Suggestions? · · Score: 3, Informative

    A Beautiful Mind is less accurate then Perfect Blue or Paranoia Agent. Dont know why but Susumu Hirasawa does a very good (if some what chilling) depiction of schizophrenia.

  2. Re:No iPod support on Napster Launches UK Music Service · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    "Only secure WMA downloads available. Not the greatest idea IMHO bearing in mind the popularity of the iPod."

    Last I saw the iPod has around a 21% market. While its been some years since I took basic math, I think that 21% is less then 79%. So would you rather provide a service to 21% of the market (never mind that Apple wont let them even if they wanted to) or to 79%?

  3. Re:Waste of time? on Nintendo's Iwata - Innovate or Die · · Score: 5, Funny

    Having fun sure is a waste of time, not a day goes by that I'm not thankful I stayed away from as much enjoyment as I could growing up. Everyone should stop wasting time enjoing themselves and just take up stamp collecting like us normal people.

    "could anakin get burned during the lava fight, hence the need for the darth vader get-up? or is that just too BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS?"

    I'm sure this fine series of movies wouldn't go for somthing so obvious. I bet the transformation is far more subtle and sinister.

    Bwa ha ha ha ha, heh.

    No realy, he falls in. Even says so in the article.

    How about, one you can turn off with a few mouse clicks or just use a different browser? Also, as has allready been said. There is more to the internet then web pages.

    That would be SheepShaver running on top of an emulator.

    SheepShaver is not a CPU emulator. It is just a hardware abstraction layer. It needs to run on BeOS or PPC Linux.

    "There is no way consumables like soda bottles or food packaging should be allowed to use plastic, which is made using petroleum. Not only do these goods cause ecological damage, they also use a strategic resource."

    OK. So what in your opinion should they use?

    Why the hell are kids playing soccer in the ocean surrounded by mines?

  14. What I do is.... on EU To Counter Echelon With Quantum Cryptography? · · Score: 5, Funny

    What I do is send meaningless emails with high encryption to my friends in China. I figure that the NSA may as well spend countless CPU cycles finding out that I just installed the Guild Wars E3 demo rather then on important stuff.

  17. Re:Big problem on The Windows Security Nightmare · · Score: 2, Insightful
    "This is a serious problem, actually. During the height of the worms last summer, we saw hundreds of machines that got infected while in the middle of downloading updates. It even got to the point that the WinXP "firewall" wasn't good enough, since it loaded *last* in the startup sequence, and there was a good 20 seconds to 2 minutes (depending on the speed of the machine) when the machine was on the net and unprotected, even if you had enabled the firewall settings."

    There is a system called "unplugging the network cable" that can block 100% of the network traffic within the first two min' of booting!

  25. Re:Got a job offer already? on Corporate Work in the US vs. Canada? · · Score: 1

    However I dont think the canada numbers are skewed by not counting people who have been out of work long enough to stop getting unemployment or who have had to take a minimum wage job inorder to stay alive. I see and know more unemployed people then the government claims there are, for some reason I trust myself more then them.
