  1. Re:Talent, not clock cycles on Big Blue to take on Pixar? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This is why i think the new Star Wars films suck. Too much attention has been focused on the effects and everything. You need a nice balence between plot and character development and the visual and audio effects.

    It seems today that a-list actors and visual effects with high-budget action scenes are all that are needed for a film and that the script is there merely to get the two together. Basically, a script serves the same purpose as it does in a porno!

  2. Why do we need to make a bogus corp on Cringely Proposes a Music Sharing Alternative · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Is there any reason why we can't go out and buy a Sony share or a Warner share???

    They own the rights to begin with!

  3. Doubleclick is gonna loose on Nationwide Class Action Filed Against DoubleClick · · Score: 1, Insightful

    They're gonna loose. If people have a case against fast food restaurants for making them fat i think they'll have a case against people actually trying to fool their fat-asses.

    If there is one constant in this world, it's people's stupidity and i know that most people have clicked those at least once, twice, maybe even a few times.

    It's kinda funny that the whole case depends on people prooving how stupid they are.

  4. Re:Really, 1 and 2 are the same thing on Microsoft Names Linux its Number Two Risk · · Score: 1

    Economic environment includes everything from piracy to the lack of cash to upgrade hardware and ms software like office and server. I don't see how 1 and 2 are the same.

  5. Why shut it down? on Star Wars Galaxies Auctions Afoot · · Score: 1

    ill Sony/Verant shut down SWG auctions, like they did the EverQuest Auctions?

    It only makes sense to me for them to keep it going. People pay to play to get paid and others who always have to be winners buy this stuff and play who would otherwise get frustrated and fed up and after a shot while not pay!

    The KISS principle is something all engineers should folllow when they can.

    And the other line is "You're making my penis longer just looking at you, now bend over!"

  10. Even if its in the U.S. on Trustworthy Software For The NSA? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ...who's to say that there might not be spies writting the software anyways. Can't the NSA write their own source code. They've already contributed selinux.

  18. Re:Put your tin foil hats away, please on Roswell Declassified · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the insight. If it was "alien" technology that allowed us to develop microprocessors at such an amazing rate then there's an awfull lot of "civilian" scientists and knowledge involved. I seriously doubt that if aliens could travel here they'd crash, but if they did we'd probably have quantum space distorters and mega death-rays instead.

  19. Re:Conspiracy theorists. on Roswell Declassified · · Score: 2, Funny

    What if the bible had a disclaimer:
    The following text was made up by a bunch of drunk pimps in the desert who one day decided to become rich and powerfull by starting a religion. This text is not true though it may be based on "some" historical fact. The content of this book does not reflect the views and/or beliefs of the publisher, merely those of the author/conartist.

    I really hope you don't mean the U.S. country/culture owning the world. They may try but they don't know that canada has a secret army stashed away in the rockies and a secret moonbase death star. You will all become Canadian. Muhahahaha!

    Darwin is an open source project. Everyone has access to it. There's no real excuse why they can't understand its innermost workings. The darwin source code looks very clean and organized.

    Kids these days are spoiled. Back in the good 'ol days when we all had 14.4 modems and we had to walk fifty miles in snow and ice just to pick it up. If we wanted to talk on the phone, tough luck!
