  1. Re:Smart business model on Games Workshop Tries to Crack Down on Internet Sales · · Score: 0

    You can probably leave out step 4.

  2. Re:Disgusting on "Super-DMCA" Outlaws Ph.D. Thesis · · Score: 4, Funny

    And you better not forget to put a return address on all of your mail!

  3. Re:in related news... on Phoenix and Minotaur Get New Names · · Score: 1
    You forgot about the MacOS browsers:

    Camino -> Chevy El Camino
    Safari -> GMC Safari

    All GM products. :)

  4. Re:This is Singapore... on Webcams to Enforce Singapore Quarantine · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Don't forget that even though Singapore is wealty, it is still not a democracy.

  5. Re:Fictional Writer on Deus Ex Writer Discusses 'Dangerous Technology' · · Score: 1

    I apoligize for that terrible sentence. I meant that "The Chinese government is not exactly cooperating with the investigation"

  6. Re:Fictional Writer on Deus Ex Writer Discusses 'Dangerous Technology' · · Score: 1
    Thats 100 reported deaths. It probably is quite a bit worse in China.

    Chinese government is not exactly The cooperating with the investigations.

  7. Re:Dear TiVo.. (Vorbis) on TiVo Home Media Rollout · · Score: 1

    While you're at it, why don't you ask for a pony, too? :)

  8. a little off-topic, but... on Mac OS X in a Nutshell · · Score: 4, Informative
    Don't bother getting the O'Reilly book MacOS X for Unix geeks. It cost me $20 and took less than 30 minutes to read. There was nothing in there that I hadn't already figured out by just using my Mac. (It explains quite obvious stuff)

    If you are indeed a Unix geek, go to macosxhints.com and you'll find a lot more useful information there for free.

  9. Re:Sure, if you say so on RIAA Seeks Estimated $97.8 Billion From MTU Student · · Score: 2, Funny

    What credibility?

    Wow, the supreme court decided to defer their decision to the press?? That is an interesting interpretation of the ruling. What are your sources?

  11. Re:win32 ? on Duke3d in Linux · · Score: 1

    But can you copyright the word "dermatoglyphics"?

  12. We'll See on Beige Box Apple Clone? · · Score: 1

    So what are the chances that this will actually make it to market? This reminds me of those companies that made the first real Macintosh laptops by using Mac Plus guts.

  13. Re:This is wonderful on From Turkey Guts to Fuel Oil · · Score: 4, Funny

    I've heard the the oil industry has already issued a press release stating this was a hoax.

  14. Re:Whod they reference... on Cheating Online Gamers · · Score: 1
    Punkbuster dead?

    I guess you don't play Soldier of Fortune II, Quake 3, or Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

  15. standby? on Groovy Wristomo Cell Phone Announced · · Score: 1

    I can't read the link 'cause it's slashdoted. But do you mean it has a 200 hour standby instead of a 200 minute one?

  16. Re:Do you remember Kosovo? on Germany Places Command & Conquer on Restricted List · · Score: 1

    Hey guys, I hear that Germany placed Command & Conquer on their restricted games list. You wanna talk about it?

  17. Re:Keep kickin' their asses, Wyden. on Senator Calls For Copy-Protection Tags · · Score: 1

    Yes, do what the Chinese army does and make the donation to the Democratic party.

    So it's illegal to sell Vin Diesel movies in China?

  19. Re:Hmm... on Beep! Beep! You have Broken the Law. · · Score: 1

    This is China, the burden of proof is not on the government.

  20. Re:Ummm.... on Apple to Announce new Mac OS X version in June · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Hey give CmdrTaco a break, they both start with 'A' don't they?

  21. where? on A Positive Outlook on the Software Industry · · Score: 1

    I think this edition was meant for distibution in Bangalore.

  22. we'll see on LCD Overtaking CRT · · Score: 1

    Until LCDs get cheaper than CRT, most corporate customers will still avoid them.(especially in the current economy where the bean counters are in charge)

  23. Re:TiVo's savior: Sony. on Sonicblue files for Chap 11 · · Score: 5, Funny

    Expect, if that happens, Sony will replace the hard drive in the Tivos with memory sticks.

  24. Re:Consumer-Paid-for Advertising on Cell Numbers To Be Added To 411 · · Score: 1

    Because in the US, people pay a flat rate for local phone service, so each (non-long-distance) call from a landline is "free". Therefore, the phone companies cannot charge landlines for calling cell phones, and somebody has to pay.

  25. Re:Scud Missles launched on Updates on War in Iraq · · Score: 1

    Well, the Chinese do make Scuds, but I think you meant that they used Chinese-made Silkworms, which is what they are reporting.
