  1. Re:and this will help disney? on Disney Licenses MS Windows Media DRM · · Score: 1

    Nope, I liked it. It reminded me of a game I used to play called SpellJammers.

    Shit, we're screwed

  3. Re:Why not use PKI authentication instead? on Would you Warranty Your Email? · · Score: 2

    I agree, Anonymous Coward is a very important feature that doesn't need to be scraped lightly. For intance ever now and then someone will says something so assine that I'll just have to log in as "Anonymous Coward" and call them a dumbass or even point out there are medications for thier problems.

    This serves two purposes, first dumbass finds out how stupid that he is and should really seek professional help. All the time while allowing me to save my valuble and hard earned karma for trolling like it should be.

    See? Win-Win

  4. Re:Satellite has one big advantage on Cable TV Versus Satellite TV? · · Score: 1

    My 2 cents looks like this. Generally when I lose signal on the old satellite do to weather I don't give a damn at the moment. I'm to busy running to the basement...

  5. Re:Unfortunately on Ripoff 101: Gouging Students for Textbooks · · Score: 1, Funny

    At least you had a library to close. When I went to school we had to write our own textbooks. An this was on a pdp-11 with troff even.

    too bad it seems to be 95% crapola.

    Sounds like the internet to me....

  8. Re:Mars rover rolls over and dies on One Company's Response to SCO · · Score: 1

    I usually don't responded to trolls since I'm the one usually doing the trolling, but at least we got a few feet across the land scape and didn't become apart of it.

    I'm pretty sure I should stuck more punctuation in there but fuck it.

  9. Re:The plane took a dump on me... on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 1

    How much did it pay. I'm not proud but you pay me enough money and I'll do anything for cash.

  13. Fuck'em on USA To Return To Moon By 2015, Then Mars · · Score: 1

    Well sometimes you just have to say "fuck'em." Sure it will piss the "naturalist", we call them tree huggers off, but fuck'em.

  14. Do it right on USA To Return To Moon By 2015, Then Mars · · Score: 1

    Okay, prez Bush wants us to goto Mars. I can live with that but lets put the money into it and do it right. Lets not put 12 billion dollars into a single use space ship that will make one trip then we toss it in the bin. We need to spend the cash and basiclly build a space research ship that can make several trips to Mars. We need to make a reusable ship.

    We need to a ship with sections that spin to produce gravity. We need a ship with nuclear engines that can make the trip in a quarter the time it currently takes. We need a ship that won't just go to Mars but if we wanted to we could take it to Jupiter or beyond.

    People will complain that spinning sections are to complex. Bullshit, we went to the moon almost 40 years ago. If we want to do it we can. Nuclear engines have been on the drawing boards for almost 50 years and there has be working prototypes running for years. All we need to do is build the damn thing. We have the basic techonology just need to pollish the edges.

    It will be expensive true, but if we can get a ship that we can use for 20 years it will be worth it. A ship that can take 2 years to cruse out to Jupiter and spend a few years studying the system.

  15. Re:What's the point? on New Sony Minidisc Players · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure what you mean by "crap for battery life." My nomad says it get 14 hours on the package from a single charge. I know it gets at least 10 hours with a pretty good chunk left over on the gauge. Fourteen hours isn't nothing to sneeze at.

  18. Re:Ah, fight fire with fire... on What You Get When You Buy a Spam CD · · Score: 1

    Not a bad ideal there. What if we got some of these list then posted them to the web somewhere. Yeah, now alot of would be spammer would have free address but people could check and see if thier name is on the list and change email address. This would make the list useless.

    On second thought maybe that isn't such a good ideal. How about getting the physical address of the spammers and breaking their kneecaps?

  19. Re:Kidney Stone on Best Way To Beat A Caffeine Addiction? · · Score: 1

    Amen. Nothing like pissing blood and extream pain to make you rethink your life. In my case the pain came after the blood. Went to the can at 4:00 AM half a sleep. It came out bright red. I member thinking "that isn't right." I was wide awake after that. Another good ideal is not to go to the internet and type in your problems. 10 minutes on the web and I thought it was over.

    I used to dring 4 mountaindews a day pulse plenty of tea. Then i passed a kidneystone. I had no problem kicking the habit.

  21. Re:Indian engineering on India Plans Hypersonic Space Plane by 2007 · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    It isn't going to happen. About every 10 years one of these third world countries will come out and annouce something grand and it will simply disappear. Hell, last time it was the Kenyan space program. Didn't happen.

    Every now and then one will supprise you and try something. China did great with that manned mission but I have yet to see anything out of it.

    In other words I'll believe it when I see it. India would be better spending the money on education, food, and enforcing laws.

    I love my fax modem. Anything I have in word that I need to send I just off from within microsoft word. It's even better when I'm recieving fax's. I used to get 3 or 4 junk faxes a day that was a waist of paper. Now when I do get them they go into a queue and I just delete them. They don't waist paper anymore.

    Yeah, I know I could sue them for 500 bucks a pop but now I only get 1 a week and its not worth it.
