  1. Private Mars Mission? on Private Mars Mission Planned For 2009 · · Score: 0

    They havent even sent a trained man to Mars yet and they are already thinking about a private mission? Don't know about you, but even if i had the money the risk wouldn't we worth it.

  2. Keeping microsoft happy... on Keeping Microsoft Happy · · Score: 1, Funny

    World domination comes to mind.

    Why else thy to enter media and entertainment?

  3. Modern Cars on Intelligent Transportation Systems · · Score: 0

    Does this car come with stealth?
    How much is it extra?

  4. Great on Microsoft FAT Patent Rejected · · Score: -1

    That's good news. If we had people patent things they made tens of years ago...the wourld would go crazy. The lawsuits, the infringements. If the patent would have went thought, companies would do a lot more of those tricks. Release now, patent later. When people are dependant on it.

  5. Copy protection... on Sony Japan to Abolish Copy Controlled CDs · · Score: 0, Insightful

    All this in an effort to promote their HD walkman? Why didn't Sony notice this before? I mean, they have plenty of portable audio out there. By Sony or otherwise. It took them that long to realise that not everyone who rips cd shares them?

  6. Re:Because... on Xbox Modchip Featuring Onboard Operating System · · Score: 0

    Really??? So the interface to play XBox games is hardware based? I stand corrected.

  7. Re:Because... on Xbox Modchip Featuring Onboard Operating System · · Score: -1

    I wouldn't be too sure about this. XBox is basically a computer. Which means that the interface for the games are on the operating system API. Once you install another operating system, that will be it.

  8. "applications such as Linux"??? on Xbox Modchip Featuring Onboard Operating System · · Score: 0

    "applications such as Linux"

    What's that mean? Is linux the operating system used with it? Or does it mean that it can be installed over current operating system?

    Sounds damn good thought, wireless... Well done to the people behind this.

  9. DRM on Is The Public Stuck With The Broadcast Flag? · · Score: 0

    We are reading more and more about DRM technologies and at same time we are owning less and less. Suddenly there's a service to attach to each product to pay for... Im curious if anything we will make in the future (When DRM will be widely used) will be owned by of or will it be owned by the company why made the application? I think that that is a stunt to watch out for...

  10. Re: Asteroid on Asteroid 4179 Toutatis Will Miss Earth, This Time · · Score: 0

    Im curious how did earth rurvive so long with all that mass moving around in space...Because we will have to deal with a situation like that sooner or later, will we be ready??? Somehow i don't think it's as easy as nuking it.

  11. Portable 3D Engine on Irrlicht - Fast Realtime 3D Engine · · Score: -1

    Don't thing's like that exist now? I think Unreal Tournament 2004 can be plays on windows and linux. Althought on windows it uses DirectX and OpenGl on linux.

  12. Portable 3D Engine on Irrlicht - Fast Realtime 3D Engine · · Score: -1

    Don't thing's like that exist not. I think Unreal Tournament 2004 can be plays on windows and linux. Althought on windows it uses DirectX and OpenGl on linux

  13. Sounds to me like a promotion... on Intel says Internet needs to change · · Score: -1

    It sounds like ther are paving the way for some sort of new technology. Parhaps they want to enter new market or direct current market(s). What they speak of if think sounds very much like a mixture of IPv6 and palladium.

  14. Solve one problem, cause another... on Batteries For Your Pen And Paper? · · Score: -1

    Is that a good idea? That would solve the problem of trees being cut down but, now we are using batteries or rechargable cells which are not as biodegradable as paper is. In addition to that we are becoming VERY dependant electricity. Also 2mb/50page memory is a start, as the time goes by they'll store more and more. Imagine what would happen if the battery went down just before you needed the information you previously stored. A ploblem arises that you don't get when using a piece of paper. I don't think that idea will take-off, i don't think people would use powered "pen" and "paper". I think it would be too inconvenient.

  15. Freely avaliable... on UserLinux Releases First Beta · · Score: 0, Troll

    Freely available hight quality product with support? Who's paying for the developement?

  16. Why? on Longhorn Will Have Ability to Ban External Storage Devices · · Score: -1

    Could someone tell me why you would want to do that?

  17. New Objects on New Ring Discovered Around Saturn · · Score: 0

    First they found new planets and now a new ring, how is it that they didn't see it before?

  18. Great... on Sybase Releases Free Enterprise Database on Linux · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    More competition for MS. The more alternatives, the better. I only with that there was something to compete with directx

  19. Intel follower? on Intel Begins Shipping 64-bit Prescotts · · Score: 0

    It's weird to see intel not leading the market

  20. Is Linux... Unix? on Can GNU Ever Be Unix? · · Score: 0

    If it isn't, it must be bloody close. How else could SCO launch lawsuits on linux?

  21. Slackware is pretty easy on The Stealth Desktop: Sight and Sound With Slackware · · Score: 1

    Im only new to linux. I've started off using Redhat, Mandrake, Debian, Caldera and some other minor linux distros and i found that Slackware was the easiest to install, setup and maintain out off all of the above. I also like how the packages are not modified.

  22. Opera on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: -1

    I always looked up to opera as one of the best browsers. Mozilla compares quite well to opera only, why is Mozilla so big? 12mb without java. This makes me think that Firefox and all the other products have still a long way to go.

  23. Anything is better then IE on Mozilla Gains on Internet Explorer · · Score: -1

    Internet explorer is crap comparing to alternatives. There's so many other browsers whish are better and less buggy the IE.

  24. Re:Just buy it online... on Beastie Boys Respond to DRM Claims · · Score: -1

    Buy it online, it seems like a good idea...but, soon the online stores will be hit too. Parhaps worse then cd's

  25. Re:Copy Protection in Canada though BUT WHY? on Beastie Boys Respond to DRM Claims · · Score: -1

    Could it be because they RIAA can sue anyome in the USA (im not too sure about UK) but outside of US it's a bit harder
