  1. Re:Wait on Disney Switches To Linux For Animation · · Score: 1

    Gee, an alien who gets left behind befriends a child. Never seen anything like that, have we?

  2. Toshiba is cheap. on Toshiba's iPod Competitor · · Score: 0

    Toshiba was once at the top of the notebook computer industry because they are cheap, but people have caught on. You get what you pay for. I am an A+ certified tech, and have repaired hundreds of Toshiba laptops. Junk! Did you know a part has to fail in the field three times before they will accept that it is defective? Don't buy their i-pod rip off. It will be garbage.

  3. Re:Wait on Disney Switches To Linux For Animation · · Score: 1

    Disney will use Linux, but won't let you watch their DVDs on a computer running linux. There may be good people at Disney, such as the animators, but Michael Eisner and all the corporate types are evil evil evil! This is the same company that harasses day care centers and schools for painting Mickey on the wall without paying up, an image created before 1923 that righfully belongs to the public domain. Walt died how many years ago? Why should a corporation still be getting rich off of his name and things he drew three quarters of a century ago? This is the company selling us a blatant E.T. ripoff that they couldn't even release with a "G" rating, Lilo and Stich. This is the the same company that presented Scrooge McDuck as a role model to children, teaching them consumerism, and wasteful spending. Disney gave the world Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and one of the backstreet boys. Yes Disney is EVIL!!!

  4. Re:Metal in the microwave--Boom! on The Boy and his Breeder Reactor · · Score: 1

    I didn't buy the paper. My wife finished shopping, and yelled at me to come on, so I put it down. Sorry I don't have more to tell you.

    How about using cans and a string?

  7. Re:Time to re-vamp P2P specs on Collapsing P2P Networks · · Score: 1

    If they kill P2P, they will just send teens to the flea market to buy pirated CDs. They are tying their own noose! http://www.dontbuycds.uncoveror.com/piracy.htm

  8. Re:sinister motive? on Collapsing P2P Networks · · Score: 1

    No we wouldn't notice. People who listen to Britney Spears are too stupid to use a computer. They actually buy the CDs.

  9. Re:Metal in the microwave--Boom! on The Boy and his Breeder Reactor · · Score: 1

    I read it in a newspaper from the checkout line at wal-mart.

  10. Re:Circuit City's past on Circuit City Phases Out VHS · · Score: 1

    That's a good idea!

  11. Metal in the microwave--Boom! on The Boy and his Breeder Reactor · · Score: 1

    I wonder if that kid trying to build his own nuclear reactor knew that nuclear fission can occur if you put metal in the microwave. It's a longshot, like one in 500,000, but you might make the whole block go boom!

  12. Re:Circuit City's past on Circuit City Phases Out VHS · · Score: 1

    Best Buy is so much better than Circuit City because they aren't on commission. They have no incentive to screw you. Anyone one on commission is paid to screw you, by selling you the crap they need to move, instead of what you want or need. Every commissioned saleman knows they can get away with verbal lies. If it's not in writing, It won't stand up in court, and if it is in writing, disclaim it with fine print.

  13. Re:8mm? on Circuit City Phases Out VHS · · Score: 1

    For big fun, ask the red-ass baboons who work at Circuit city for an 8mm adapter. I bet they'll try to sell you a vhs-c adapter, thinking all "Little videotapes" are the same.

    turntables are now for making music, not listening to it. scratch-a scratch-a scratch-a Yo Yo!

  15. Re:Red Stripe Dropped Off the Country Flag on Monopolists Dropped Off At The County Line · · Score: 1

    If you look closely, you will notice that a tiny part of Delaware's red stripe is there at the top, and a tiny scrap of it is enough, because Delaware is so small. Being bigger than Rhode Island isn't much of a bragging point.

  16. Re:laws like this are not enforced in az on Monopolists Dropped Off At The County Line · · Score: 1

    They can't hire a convicted felon as a janitor, but they can hire them for big jobs, like supplying the fine columbian snow that rich and powerful politicians and executives love to snort.

  17. Re:Less painless? on Lawsuit Challenges Copy-protected CDs · · Score: 1

    I had some of that Kentucky Jelly on crackers. It was just awful!

  18. This is a good idea. on Video Games in Gym Class - DDR 101? · · Score: 1

    It's a shame the dance game costs so much, but anything that gets today's pop guzzling, candy bar inhaling lazy blob kids off their dead asses is a good idea. Here's another. GET POP AND CANDY MACHINES OUT OF SCHOOLS.

  19. Re:I live in Alberta on Baked Alaska · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Businesses can't police themselves because in business, greed is good and the almighty dollar is god. Strict government regulation is neccesary. Savings and loans were deregulated, and destroyed themselves with predatory greed. Utilities were deregulated, and energy prices went through the roof. People lost home just trying to heat them , and Enron still self destructed, crushed under the weight of it's greed. The big problem with capitalism is that it has become a cult, and it's followers are brainwashed into believing in the myth that business can regulate itself, and that prosperity will trickle down. This cult caused the great depression of the thirties, and is causing another, while raping the earth.

  20. Re:How is he surviving? on Fake Light Sabers Making Real Cash · · Score: 1

    Bogus? How could they be bogus when they're on TV! It has to be real to be on TV, right? Just like the UFOs and aliens and elchupacabras and stuff. By the way, wrestling is a real sport, isn't it?

  22. Re:Just like the economy? on Technology Sectors that are Hot or Heating Up Now? · · Score: 1

    Talk of the tech sector being on the upswing is so much B.S. Don't believe the hype. The entire economy will continue to fall as more and more companies go belly up, or lay people off to stay afloat. This isn't just a recession, it's a depression. If you have a job, you are doing better than a lot of techies.

  23. Re:took them long enough on Record Industry Wants Royalties for Used CD Sales · · Score: 1

    That doesn't surprise me about Garth Brooks. He like all "young country" is just pop with hats and boots. Prefabricated commercial soundalike garbage. I don't buy his CDs or anyone's I support the boycott I read about at www.dontbuycds.org How much for a used soul you sellout piece of crap!
