  1. More court overload? on Record Industry Sues 532 More U.S. File-Sharers · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I thought someone told the RIAA to stop the mass lawsuits because of them putting to much load on the legal system... Can someone kill these GNAA coments please?

  2. Re:Why is this even an issue? on Audio Format Shifting To Be OK'd In New Zealand · · Score: 1

    They'd probably make shipping cost more than the product is worth anyways...

  3. Re:Why is this even an issue? on Audio Format Shifting To Be OK'd In New Zealand · · Score: 1

    Billions? I don't think so. CDs are incredibly cheap to produce.

  4. This kinda makes me think of the gamegear on MSFTs "iPod Killer" Readied for Europe · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Anyone remember this thing? It was fairly large but you could get a TV tuner for it. Sounds kinda like the next step up.

  5. Kanavit? on Anand Reviews Athlon 64 FX-53 · · Score: 1

    That wounldn't happen to be Kanavit would it? He posted 13000 posts of pro intel crap on the futuremark forums before the mods banned him for spreading disinformation.

  6. No more annoying cell phones... on NASA Develops Tech To Hear Words Not Yet Spoken · · Score: 1

    This would be great in movie theaters or restaurants it you could get them to start replacing cellphones. Imagine not having to hear someone ramble on to their cell phone in a restaurant. I you could make these things small enough you could also cheat on tests. Just wear a turtleneck.

  7. Crimson Skies? on Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow! · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It looks good and all, but I just can't help but think it looks like Crimson Skies with giant robots :s

  8. Re:Payback on Intel Plans CPU Naming Change · · Score: 0

    I'm not sure the "give it time" statement is working for apple. I would say it leans more towards the AMD side of things. Even the A64 hit the store shelves before the G5 we still haven't seen its full potential. Sure, its clocking up nice and all... The real thing AMD users are waiting for is a 64bit version of XP. UT2004 has a reported 30% speed boost in 64 bit mode. I'm not sure if its true or just exaggerated but either way time is working against apple in this case.

  9. Re:Mods, kindly put down the crackpipe for a secon on Intel Plans CPU Naming Change · · Score: 0

    He, thank your very much. :)

  10. Re:So how will AMD name their CPUs now? on Intel Plans CPU Naming Change · · Score: 3, Informative

    Actually its not the origional Athlon. Its the Tbird that they compare it to.

  11. Re:Follow the leader on Intel Plans CPU Naming Change · · Score: 0

    Hey you forgot to include Hyperthreading and DDR ram.

  12. Kinda seems pointless... on Overclocking Your Sega Genesis/MegaDrive · · Score: 1, Funny

    Afterall TVs dont do much more than 30Hz and most games were made to run at about 30 FPS without the overclock. Essentially any improvements won't be noticible.

  13. Mod Parent Down on GE Reaches OLED Milestone · · Score: -1, Troll

    In Soviet Russia you annoy the racists!

  14. Mod parent... Its Disturbing on GE Reaches OLED Milestone · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Let me be first to say what the fuck.

  15. Re:Warning: Bandwidth limited... on Fido Launches New Broadband Wireless Access · · Score: 0

    Its not too big of an issue. Most ISPs are only marginally cheaper than that for a land line and they get mad at you if you download or upload too much.

  16. Re:It won't make any difference... on DRM Technology To Be Added To MP3 Format · · Score: 0

    Hey you forget that they'll bitch and complain when they find out its not working :P

  17. Class Action Lawsuit. on Firmware Upgrades For Everything · · Score: 0

    Its pretty simple. If they advertise stuff on their boxes that are false phone them up and threaten them saying your going to sue them for false advertising or that you are going to start up a class action lawsuit. The real question is why do these companies have so many marketers? If you took the money from marketing and put it into the development of the product you would have something that would pretty much sell itself.

  18. Sigh.. EA takes another... on Electronic Arts Shuts Down Origin Systems? · · Score: 1

    Wing Commander, Ultima, Populous, C&C.... It really makes you wonder why the hell did EA buy these studios in the first place if they're just going to shut them down. Origin, Bullfrog and Westwood. Luckily if they even touch Maxis there will be hell... Damn EA.

  19. Girls get shot? on Girls in the Gaming World · · Score: 0
    "I have been a female computer gamer and a role player for many years now. In fact I started playing RPG's when I was 8 with my dad. I have always found that once people know you are a girl you will be shot!! Boys can't help themselves, they have to shoot you. Only IF they find out though, if you dress like a boy and mask your voice you can get away with it and be treated like one of the lads. If you are a kid you will be shot too, I find my daughters suffer exactly the same fate as me once they are found out. Come on lads why do you do it ??" Sharon Craft, Peterborough UK

    Would someone help this woman pull her head out of her ass? I think the main purpose of games where you can be shot is to shoot other people!

  20. Re:So.....how does it go? on Hamster-controlled MIDI · · Score: 4, Funny

    You know what... its seems like the RIAA has been doing this for years.

  21. In Soviet Russia... on Hamster-controlled MIDI · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    You play music for hamsters... Hmm.. for once this joke doesnt work. Damn.

  22. Re:HP is gonna be pissed.... on Intel 64-bit Announcements at IDF · · Score: 0

    Yeah, but how often does a company not take any money it can get?

  23. HP is gonna be pissed.... on Intel 64-bit Announcements at IDF · · Score: 1, Informative

    I'm pretty sure HP and Intel signed an agreement to have the Itanium as their only 64bit processor for quite some time. This will violate this agreement, unless Intel payed HP the penalties then Intel is going to be in some deep legal shit.

  24. Re:cool on GEOS Available for Download After 18 Years · · Score: 0, Funny

    Hmm.. I wonder if MS will try to get SCO to sue these guys too :P

    Uhh... how bout Canada? Eh?
