  1. Re:Hrmm on Too Many Computers Hurt Learning · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm not sure about you, but since I didn't really get into the computing world until about 98' I learned to type quickly on irc and forums. My grammar might not be perfect, but I doubt it's a result of leet speak.

  2. just to make it blunt on Self-Adapting Traffic Lights · · Score: 1

    or a pedestrian bridge....

  3. In North Korea on In Korea, Email Is Only For Old People · · Score: 0

    In North Korea, old people are only used by (current subject)!

  4. Its love hate.. on EA Games: The Human Story · · Score: 1

    The problem is that EA has so many games under thier wings that I've got addicted to over the years. I'm a Sim City addict. Even with the shit EA introduces to what was maxis the game is still more addictive than crack to me. SSX and NFS series also seem to be somewhat well finished compared to some of their other garbage. I wonder if EA Canada isn't quite so unreasonable with their scheadualing.

  5. Re:Canada is not some bastion of freedom folks. on What's Going On in Canada? · · Score: 1

    I take it you work for either EA or Relic. Anyways it seems like this guy comes from the prairies, probably alberta. Come to BC buddy, you can't get much more accepting than this.

  6. Re:Can we take a pass on Quebec? on Savebetamax.org National Call-in Day · · Score: 1

    Because they're holding on to us for our wallets.

  7. Re:Interface on Palmtop Nirvana? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Thats why you turn off the backlight if you're using one with a transreflective screen. Let the sun be your backlight, works quite nicely on my axim x5. :) If you could get a solar panel which would plug into the pda as a peripheral and fold up when you're not using it that would be awsome.

  8. Re:Unlikely on Apple Introduces New G5 iMac · · Score: 1

    Hmm.. Then correct me if im wrong but isn't this the specs for an lampshade imac? It sucked then and it still sucks now. introduced 2003.09.08 at US$1,799 requires Mac OS X 10.2 or later CPU: 1.25 GHz G4 bus: 167 MHz performance: unknown RAM: 256 MB, expandable to 1,024 MB using PC2700 (333 MHz) DDR SDRAM Graphics: nVidia GeForce 5200 Ultra with AGP 4X support VRAM: 64 MB monitor: 17" 1440 x 900 flat panel display video out: Mini VGA port for video mirroring, requires VGA adapter L2 cache: 256 KB on-chip cache running at full CPU speed hard drive: 80 GB 7200 rpm UltraATA/100 drive

  9. Re:Unlikely on Apple Introduces New G5 iMac · · Score: 1

    Sure. The superdrive is good but come on! The graphics card?!?!?! Its the same "blazing fast graphics" that the last imac came with, and it sucks! Now with doom 3 out ask people running GFFX5200s how the quality of their graphics card has effected gameplay. A GF3 or a Radeon 8500 still smokes it in quite a few areas.

  10. Re:A problem I see. on Space-Age Houses · · Score: 1

    I used to be an IT worker but to be honest this pays better. If the deliveries are close together I can make $45 in an hour. It's less work too :P

  11. A problem I see. on Space-Age Houses · · Score: 3, Insightful

    As a ferniture deliverer I see a problem. How the heck do you get large things like couches in it? A crane?

    Futureshop is best buy. Same company.

  14. Now only if.. on Best Buy Sued By Ohio · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They could stop them from using all those rebates in their advertised prices. Come on! Its $20 instant rebate with a $45 mail in rebate that takes 6 to 8 weeks to get to you if it does at all. What happened to paying what they advertise!

  15. Email! The next kazaa! on Hotmail Means to Double Gmail Storage · · Score: 3, Funny

    Well now with all the spam going around we can start using free email accounts as our next p2p app. Yay!

  16. Re:Is that really spyware? on Alabama IT Whistleblower Fired For Spyware · · Score: 1

    Well its software and it spys on people... Think about it.

  17. Ahh good... on Violent Video Game Law Struck Down · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Now I can stop worrying about the gameplay in San Andreas and get back to trying to get that 6 star rating in Vice City.

  18. Re:god forbid... on Bypassing Intel's Overclock Limit Reveals DDR2-667 · · Score: 1

    But go forbid that the exact same engine with a different label is doing 20000 rpms no problem.

    I'm not so sure about that. I think it was more of an attempt at intelligence.

    Woah, you actually got to see the pictures before the server went down?

  22. Re:Name Brand? on New Celeron D Core gets a Speed Boost · · Score: 1

    No, it would be more accurate to say: This chip could possibly compete with AMD's offerings in performance, not just if the buyer has no clue about what they're doing.

  23. Re:the masses have no clue yet, so it's not too la on Toshiba Develops World's Smallest Fuel Cells · · Score: 1

    When a stock splits several times its pretty easy to see that you've missed the best time to buy. Several my friends made a killing on this a couple years ago.

  24. Extended warrenty on Napster and Best Buy Joining Forces · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Now every time you download a song it there will be an annoying pop up window asking you if you want to pay a bit more for an extended warrenty.

  25. Re:the masses have no clue yet, so it's not too la on Toshiba Develops World's Smallest Fuel Cells · · Score: 2, Informative

    Ballard stocks have already gone up and down several times. If you invested say 10 years ago you would have made a killing. You've pretty much missed the boat now.
