  1. Re:And on Stargate Universe Cancelled · · Score: 0

    And I thought Stargate Atlantis was poor... Well, it still is poor, and this was just plain shit. I stopped watching after two episodes it was so bad. I'm glad it's gone. Now, with a void someone may be want to fill the void with something of quality. Or at least I'll see re-runs of Babylon 5.

  2. NO!!! on Microsoft Considers "Instant On" Windows · · Score: 0

    I love to wait for my system to boot up. I can have a cup of joe. Eat a bagel. Perhaps even raise a kid or two. What will I do with all of my spare time if they did this?

  3. And bottles of French wine ... on French Parliament Fights iPod and iTunes · · Score: 0

    And bottles of French wine should be made to contain real wine rather than that strange liquid that they export to the states. Come on now. What gives these people the right to dictate that any product made must be designed to be inferior, like French products?

  4. Global Warming on Mars? on Mars Orbiter Sees Changes · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Dam those Americans and their arrogant lifestyles. Now they are destroying Mars!!!

  5. This *MUST* be stopped on Drilling to the Center of the Earth · · Score: 0

    How stupid can they be? We all know that below the crust of the earth are were all of the mutated monsters live. Hasn't any one watched those old Japanese movies lately?

  6. Be forwarned. on Gyroscopic Wireless Mouse · · Score: 0

    I tried out several of these and while the mouse was okay, a bit difficult to get use to the keyboard sucked, dropping too many keystrokes. Besides known problems ( check out their websites) with certain production problems, try dialing their phone numbers. When I tried to reach support, sales, or any of the phone numbers, none of the numbers were receiving inbound phone calls. In addition, the "on-line live chat" doesn't work. There was even a 'special number' to call if you had bought on of their known defective devices, which didn't work. So, no sales support, no customer support. No deal. This item was written up in Tom's Hardware several weeks ago and sounded great for controlling my laptop remoting for viewing video. Read the article. You probably won't want to try to use it for gaming after reading it.

  7. Hey! That is my patent! on Microsoft Advises to Type in URLs Rather than Click · · Score: 0

    I own the patent on typing URLs rather than clicking. It's patent number #1010101010, titled, "reading and writing". It covers all aspects of merging the abilities of sight, in order to read, cognitive thought, and the interfacing of the brain with any appendage to create an image representing any means of communication. All those using such methods know who you are and should send me all of your money immediately. Yes, this includes you McBride!!!

  8. My 1966 Corvair Corsa is still running! on Worst Cars Of All Time Rated · · Score: 0

    Just because Ralph Nader falsified, ( yes, he was convicted of falsifying the data ) the Corvair is a great car. I've owned two of them and both have out lasted my Nissan's and Toyota's by far.

  9. WOW! I'm so glad on RIAA Files 532 Lawsuits · · Score: 0

    I'm so glad that I only download illegal software!!!!

  10. Ever hear of "pitch"? on Scientists Create Supersolid From Helium · · Score: 0

    Sounds like it works the same way but without having to super cool it.

  11. It works because on Apple Announces 25 Million Song Downloads · · Score: 0

    Unlike the media, WierdoWood (Hollywood to those on the wacked-out coasts, and the recording industry, Americans have morals and will pay a fair price for a commodity.

  12. Wow!! I've got a virus in my BIOS, err my what? on Phoenix's BIOS Roadmap · · Score: 0

    Now, with every computer, A virus you won't be able to get rid of. And it isn't Herpes or HIV. Lucky us.

  13. An Kidnappers will love it too! on Implanted RFID Tag To Replace Cash? · · Score: 0

    Walk into that bar and voila!!! This mark has A1 credit and a line of credit that can finance his or her abduction!!

    Not for me...

  14. Darn, and I wanted a Dalek. on Fight Woodworking Piracy: Add EULA Restrictions · · Score: 0

    What is Davros to do now???

  15. simulators on Obtaining Mainframe Experience w/o a Mainframe? · · Score: 0

    I remember a few years back that I used a similator for a 3780 and SPF editor. It was extremely good and when I was put infront of the mainframe, I felt comfortable and I could work. I even got praised quite a bit for how quickly I picked up working on the mainframe. Little did they know that I had the simulator/emulator. Sorry that I don't remember the name of the software.

  16. You don't on Who Owns Source Code When a Company Folds? · · Score: 0

    Because a "company folds" does not mean that the assets of the company are up for grabs. Someone still holds the copyrights, and patents, etc. Even in a bankruptcy, someone holds the rights to the remaining assets. Assets are sold off, and some may not. Sometimes, you can pick up some cheap patents and copyrights and win big in the lawsuit game.

  17. ATTENTION! Your Data may have been stolen! on Notifications of Security Breaches · · Score: 0

    This is not SPAM. By law, I must inform you that your personal information may have been accidently retrieved by a hacker at the XYZ corporation. But if you buy our software today, you can prevent identity theft, SARS, and other horrible events from occuring.

  18. The Original ADVENTURE on What Games Have Actually Affected You? · · Score: 0

    For us old timers, the original Adventure game has the biggest impact. Heck, there was no other game like it. It was the first to actually put "twisty little mazes" into our lives and to create an artificial world onto our computers. Long before the PC was even born. XYZZY to you all!!!

  19. FANTASTIC!! on Strange New Keyboards and Mice · · Score: 0

    How about a keyboard without a Satan blessing MS key on it?

  20. Buying direct from a Manufacturer and rebates on Are Rebates Scandalous? · · Score: 0

    Nothing is more f'n annoying then buying my Dell Laptop directly from Dell and having to fill out rebate information and send it back in and waiting 6-8 weeks hoping that I did everything from filling out the forms to sacrificing the lamb properly.

  21. Two hired hit-men and a job on Kazaa Usability Study · · Score: 0

    So HP has nothing better for their employees to do? I suppose that HP's announcement of firing 10% of its work force a head of schedule is really NOT a head of schedule. Or should I say, here are two volunteers?

  22. who is dumber? This author or the users? on Kazaa Usability Study · · Score: 0

    Duh? We know that people are stupid and will make mistakes such as what the article shows us by sharing an entire disk drive. But I question who is dumber? The people paying for this "research and analysis?" The people who believe this to be a security flaw? Or the two paid hit-men who wrote it?

  23. MIT = Morons, Idiots, and Transsexuals? on Microsoft Expert Witness Stumbles · · Score: 0

    Got me. Obviously, another example of the failed education system in the U.S.A.

  24. Don't take that PISS!!! You thief! on Turner CEO: "PVR Users Are Thieves" · · Score: 0

    You got it! If you pee, you're a thief. I wonder how Coke will feel about aiding thiefs by having their customers get up during commericals and get a coke? Wait a minute, they are the advertisers. I'm confused. Should I buy their products to enjoy with my television or shouldn't I? Should I watch only the commercials and not the show? Dam, what contract did I sign? Liberals.

  25. blah blah blah on TiVo Series 2 Review · · Score: 0

    Nothing new as I see it. I've had a PVR (ReplayTV) for quite some time and I get a bit upset how Tivo claims to be revolutionary with their product. So it runs Linux. So do I. Big deal. And my dead aunt is still using Microsoft and is still waiting for customer support.
