  1. Re:Market on First Mod Chip For GameCube · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Whoah there sparky, I'd say Xbox Media Centre is a pretty big feature.

    Of couse people often use it to play copied media so the point is kinda redundant.

    The point still stands though Xbox Media Centre is truely the killer app for the Xbox.

    And to think these people probably give a weekly tithing to their church when it would be much better spent donating it to a childrens hospital of their choice.

  4. Re:Why are they parenting others kids? on Game Industry Derided For Mature Content · · Score: 1

    How about feeding your kids lard soaked food everyday? Not teaching them anything remotely like good eating habits?

    I mean come on as an outsider looking in I can tell you Americans that the food you eat just isn't healthy, too much and too fat.

    Jesus North Americans have mapel sirup on bacon for gods sake. Teach your kids good eating habits and put them in a sport they may like. Karate or Tae Kwon Do are great choices.

  5. Re:what took so long? on First Mod Chip For GameCube · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Because Gamecube uses their own disc format, no one can copy the games because consumer level burners aren't available.

    Therefore if no one can copy the games there is no real market to have them. Having said that shouldn't the price of games be going down due to lack of piracy?

  6. Re:Just another reason... on Color Laser Printers Tracking Everything You Print · · Score: 2, Informative

    You know this casual copying of money could easily be avoided if America used plastic money. Australia does and its heaps harder to copy money.

    Porn doesn't even change your brain. That comment is utterly stupid. Ofcouse people have a hard time giving up SEX. Its biologicaly programmed into us for gods sake.

    Why would they? Rotate RIAA one place and you get ARIA.

  13. Re:Pointless on UK Group Wants Mandatory Flash For Phone Cams · · Score: 1

    For example someone could get a "Camera" type device and use that instead.

    Seriously I wouldn't be worrying about the fact the guy in the girls change rooms has a phone, but the fact that HE IS A FUCKING GUY IN THE GIRLS CHANGEROOMS!!

    Thats stupid, have you seem those old phones we had 5 years ago? You could easily cram the internals of a digital camera into those bricks.

    Why, if Australians are training the Chinese expeditioners, are they doing it in Fremantle?

    That really doesn't seem a close match for the climatic conditions in the Antarctica. It may be far too easy compared to the high altitudes they are facing.

    Never been to Fremantle huh?

    If I were able to get a subscription where I could download all the movies I wanted, the day they came out at the cinemas as a 700meg file, I would gladly pay $30 or so a month for it. I may even put up with some light DRM.

    Actually the difference between optimised compiled C programs these days is negligable to those coded in assembly. The performance hit you take is vastly outweighed by the speed in which you can develop.
