  1. Re:Never, EVER more powerful on IBM Working on Brain-Rivaling Computer · · Score: 1

    The teacher then asked simple arithmetic questions - 2x2, 3 minus 1, etc. Of course, the people without calculators could answer first. They beat you did they? meh. Business majors.

  2. Re:According to the website. on New Alienware Media Center · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately you must license any extra areas in which you wish to stand. In order to facilitate the enforcement of this, a people-locating device has been included that must be operable in oder to get the device to operate. Furthurmore, this device blanks the screen if any other unlicensed people could possibly be watching, too.

  3. Re:Fuck banks on Add-Ons Add Up · · Score: 1

    Hah. One day a few years ago I got three overdraft notices in one day. Nevermind that I had 5k in my savings account. Seems they charged me 30 bucks one day, and then since that 30 put me over, they charged me another 30, and then since that put me over, they charged me another 30. It stopped at the weekend and on monday I got all three letters. I can only imagine what would have happened had I been on vacation. How nice. Firstmerit. So far 5/3 has been great for me, though.

  10. Re:100 penetrations later... on US Busts Military Network Hacker · · Score: 3, Insightful

    More likely they're trying to screw him. Like he got into a box connected to a couple of networks so they count each one against him.

  11. Re:Get real! on Magnetic Poles May Be About To Flip · · Score: 1

    oh! oh! Conspiracy theory! I think I can mix this all in with the egyptians and atlantis and and the aztecs! Yeah, and aliens too! Because you know they helped them. Probably helped us too. Yeah and black helicopters will fall from the sky and we'll all die because of the magnetic poles just like everyone else. DOOOOOM!!!!

  12. Re:somewhat OT on When Good Interfaces Go Crufty · · Score: 1

    I really don't use those folders, since It requires you to put your data on the same partition as the OS. I always thought that that was supposed to be a bad idea. I only wish I knew how to change the default away from "Program Files" to something else. It's annoying. Not to mention that I have some programs that require a path with no spaces. Yeah. This is OT isn't it.

  13. Re:Yehaw tidal harness! on Tidal Power a Reality · · Score: 1

    To venture even furthur off topic, screw the thermal boreholes. How about skyfarms. Bases with thermal boreholes are like magnets for mindworms. And no one like mindworms.

  14. Re:Yehaw tidal harness! on Tidal Power a Reality · · Score: 1

    I love that game. Does anyone else still play it other than me? I would mod you up if I could, just because. That's probably part of why I can't. On the topic of modding, if someone mods this OT without modding the parent too... I'll probably never know. So mod your heart away.

  15. Re:Exciting! on Embedding Data Signals In White Noise · · Score: 1

    Right here buddy. I accept check, cash, and major credit cards.

  16. Re:And... on USB Key-Sized MP3 Player With LCD Display · · Score: 1

    I'm more worried about that little usb cover thing. I think I'd lose it. Then I'd have nothing to cover my little thing. USB thing, I mean.

    Christ dude. You don't own a gun do you?

  18. Re:Not Totally Worthless on Copy Protection On CDs Is 'Worthless' · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    They don't want to face the fact that sales are down due to the fact that the music the put out is overpriced and is, for the miost part, crap.

    I'm sorry, I believe you've misspelled "moist".

  21. Heh on Doom Ported to Nokia phone · · Score: 1

    I read that and thought you mean the Doom 3 alpha that's floating around. That would have been pretty fast.

  22. Re:Glaring Loophole? on Ask a Legal Expert How MS Ruling Affects Open Source · · Score: 1

    You know, I'm sure microsoft people come here to make sure their ads are running correctly. I wonder if they ever come here for ideas on what to do next. They just see all our "That's great but what if they..." posts and think "If we couldn't get this advice for free, we might have to buy their souls." Yeah so next time you think that your prediction was right on, I someone reminds you that you probably gave them that idea, you bastard.

  23. I love it on Panama Decrees Block To Kill VoIP Service · · Score: 1

    I love it when business models/technologies start to become outdated; then, rather than evolve, the companies involved try to use litigation to prevent their own extinction. It's disgusting.
    Like you have a right to force people to use your services because if they don't, how will you get their money? (sorry, I know I could have worded that in a less trollish way.)

    On a partially related note: Does that remind anyone of any companies in the US?

    That means that if your device is hurting my ham radio operations on 146.880 MHz, then I sic [sic] the FCC on you, but if I interfere with you, I have primary user rights, so you're outta luck.

    I really have nothing valuable to say. I just wanted to do the sic sic thing.
