  1. Re:Maybe... on Alzheimer's Progresses Faster in Educated People · · Score: 1

    It's like when I took that wine-making course and forgot how to drive!

  2. Another Big Change on Quickies Get Massive · · Score: 1

    Just looking through the release notes, and it says that they've reduced the number of targets for area of effect powers. This includers blasters final power (like nova) and also looks like it will nerf fire tanks (the biggest source of power levelling). This is huge.

  3. Re:However, on Post-Katrina Images on Google Maps · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think you're correct - Do a search for "superdome, new orleans"

  4. Re:Extemely Complex Calculations on The Mathematics of a Trip to Mars? · · Score: 1

    Try this! Penguin!

  5. Northwind? on Employee/Human Resources Open Source Packages? · · Score: 5, Funny

    I know this company, Northwind, that has a pretty sweet employee database that they made. Maybe I can find the samples I have somewhere...

  6. Re:don't link to gamespot or gamespy please on Resident Evil 4 Released · · Score: 1

    Not sure if it's any better, but I tend to read reviews posted on Amazon. Granted, there is a lot of joke reviews, possibly some fraud and definitely fanboy behavior, but it's pretty easy to find some quality reviews there.

  7. Re:Private Funding? on Saturn V Preservation Efforts · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think the Tang Saturn V Storage Facility would be much more appropriate!

  8. Re:iPod Video Display on CES Tidbits · · Score: 1

    Or any other laptop... But that is much bigger than this or other HD video players.

  9. iPod Video Display on CES Tidbits · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think that video attachment for the iPod looked pretty cool. I've not seen a HD-based video player that has a clamshell design. It makes a lot of sense (protects the screen and keys and kind of makes double to space for keys and screen)

  10. Re:Car List Please on Gran Turismo 4 JP Launch · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Is the game still missing Porsche and Ferrari? That always seemed like a big deal to me. I think there are license issues involved, but it seems like they are making enough money with the game to be able to buy the license to use these cars.

  11. Who's next? on Class Action Filed Against Verizon Wireless · · Score: -1, Troll

    Can I sue Chevy for not putting a Corvette engine in all of it's cars? My Cavalier is crippled because of this!

  12. Re:After all... on US Company Buys Commodore Brand For $33 Million · · Score: 3, Funny

    All you need is the secret password: Load"*",8,1

  13. Re:For comparison? on Amazon Sales Record · · Score: 1

    How about data for all Wal-mart stores for a single day? I think that would be a true comparison (meaning countrywide to countrywide sales).

  14. Re:Which day? on Amazon Sales Record · · Score: 5, Informative

    It says Thanksgiving Weekend, so I would guess that's it that Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year.

  15. Re:1 in 455? on Astronaut: 'Single-Planet Species Don't Last' · · Score: 1

    Bah. Statistics are meaningless. You can use statistics to prove anything that's even remotely true!

  16. Re:Statistics on Astronaut: 'Single-Planet Species Don't Last' · · Score: 1
    "37% of all statistics are made up on the spot. "

    55% of all people know that!

  17. Could have been first! on Firefox New York Times Ad Hits the Presses · · Score: 1

    I should have done this. I could have been the first name! Regards, Aaron A Aaronson

  18. PC? on Emulation and the Video Game Industry · · Score: 2, Funny

    So that's what PC stands for! I've been confused for so long!

  19. Re:Shrek 2 DVD (kinda OT) on MPAA to Sue BitTorrent Tracker Servers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Shrek 2 is not a Disney movie!

  20. Jersey on Driver's Licenses with Digital Watermarks · · Score: 1

    What does it matter if you can just get an ID from another state? For instance, drivers licenes from Jersey are just a laminated piece of paper with a "hologram" (which was just shiny marking).

  21. I can do better on Math Whiz Breaks Calculation Record · · Score: 3, Funny

    I can say all fifty states in a quarter of a second!

  22. Wayne on Mono: A Developer's Handbook · · Score: 1

    I thought I had MONO once. Turned out I was just bored...

  23. freezer on Pushing P4 to 5.25GHz with Liquid Nitrogen · · Score: 1

    why not put the computer in a freezer?
