  1. Re:View Source on Kansas Nerd Uses Net To Shake Up Political Fundraising · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the tip! My donation had the specified number of cents in it. (:

  2. Re:I'd expect more than just eye candy from Lucas. on LucasArts Embargoes "Clone Wars" Reviews · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Maybe he was talking about Advent Children?

  3. Re:OMGWTF!?!?! on Did NBC Alter the Olympics' Opening Ceremony? · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Momento" sure made a lot more sense when it was shown on NBC!

  4. Re:bad link on Apple Launches ITunes App Store With 500+ Apps · · Score: 1

    he meant http://iflipr.com/

    if you leave off the http:/// it gets added to the local domain....

  5. Re:Hrm... on Best Way To Get Back a Stolen Computer? · · Score: 1

    Yup, they're at 127.0.0.1.

    Hold on, there's a knock on the door...

  6. Re:That's because.. on Motley Crue Single Does Better On Rock Band · · Score: 5, Funny

    Wait wait wait... this coming from someone named after the guy who did "I'm Too Sexy?" My irony sensors are overloading.

    Like the Astronomy Picture of the Day from April 1, 2005?

    Look! Water on Mars!

  8. Re:Invites to Demonoid on Use BitTorrent To Verify, Clean Up Files · · Score: 1

    Thanks! The top code worked for me, and the bottom one was already used... (:

  9. Re:seriously now... on Jack Thompson's Letter To Take-Two Exec's Mother · · Score: 1

    Brings up a good question. If you were to kill Jack Thompson, then blame it on things you saw in a video game, could you use Thompson's own prior court statements as grounds for dismissal, because the video game made you do it? I mean, it would be like having the dead lawyer rooting for his own killer!

  10. Re:Ironic in a way on BitTorrent Use Up 24% Since November · · Score: 1

    If you use uTorrent, as soon as the dialog "where do you want to save this?" comes up, it lists all the files with checkboxes next to them... uncheck every file except Bart vs Australia, and that's the only one that will be downloaded.

  11. Re:SSNs on Oklahoma Leaks 10,000 Social Security Numbers · · Score: 1

    dang it, now I have to go and change my password. And here I thought CroMagnon would be secure. Maybe I could change it to the same combo I have on my luggage.

  12. Re:How is this new information? on Weak Rivets May Have Sped Sinking of Titanic · · Score: 5, Informative

    Tag "oldnews"

    The article states that the rivets were first talked about in 1998, but the shipbuilder disagreed. Since then, more people have looked at the rivets, and they have all said the same thing. Rivets were bad, they failed under pressure, and the ship sank. The only reason this is "news" is because they found corroborating evidence in the shipbuilder's old documents.

  13. Re:They did this on my property too! on Google StreetView Is In Your Driveway · · Score: 1

    If you are looking at a StreetView image, there's a link at the top that says "StreetView Help", and after clicking on that, you can click "Report inappropriate image"... one of their options is "This image infringes on my privacy". Fill out a quick form, and click Submit. No need to resort to legal threats or accusations of pederasty...

    Some people...

  15. Re:Sorry England on South Park To Be Available Online Free and Legal · · Score: 1

    There are pictures for CA (Canada), and AU (Australia)... Those are the only ones I was able to find, there may be more! I tried all the countries I could think of that have a halfway decent english speaking population. (and a few that don't, that South Park likes mocking... France and Mexico come to mind)

  16. Re:Audible.com not allowing non DRM books on Book Publishers Abandoning DRM · · Score: 1

    If you have not called them on the phone and waited on hold for 15-30 minutes, your account is probably still active.

    Good luck.

  17. Re:iTouch? on An App Store For iPhone Software · · Score: 1

    They are very close. The ipod touch is missing three things that the iphone has: a cell phone, bluetooth, and a camera. Any application that doesn't use one of those three things will work equally well on both platforms.

  18. Re:No auto complete is NOT to blame on A $1 Billion Email Gaffe · · Score: 1

    Eye dew that awl the thyme. My spell checker tells me that eye halve spelled everything write.

    oh, I see the problem. Hrm. Can't help you there. Sorry!

  20. Re:Dammit, now I need another excuse on Apple Updates iPhone and iPod Touch · · Score: 1

    You want always-on internet connectivity? Wouldn't that require some sort of, oh, I dunno, cell phone reciever? Have you heard of this new thing, called an iPhone? It's exactly what you want, minus the capacity for music/data.

  21. Re:Grammar Pedant on Notebook Makers Moving to 4 GB Memory As Standard · · Score: 1

    he had his grammar right.

    "It's bigger than my neighbour's [computer]" is correct. If he had said "It's bigger than my neighbors" it would have meant the computer was bigger than the people living next door. If you're going to be a pedant, get it right.

  22. Re:Mirror? on Startrek.com Shutting Down · · Score: 4, Funny

    if it is, the mirror will have a goatee and be evil!

  23. Re:How does the WGA strike factor in? on MTV Takes on P2P by Making South Park Free · · Score: 1

    South Park is a non-union shop.. Matt and Trey aren't walking the picket line, and any contract they enter into is specific to them, and not dictated by the WGA.
