  1. Have we learned nothing.. on Techs Discover End Users Aren't So Bright · · Score: 4, Funny

    From THIS???

  2. BIG difference... on Are We About To Enter The Age of Book Piracy? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Books don't ALL cost 20 bucks (in fact much much less normally) and there isn't just one page that is good.

  3. Strangest TRUTH on snopes.com's David Mikkelson Interviewed · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What is THE strangest story that you thought couldn't POSSIBLY be true, but upon further research, was?

    BTW excellent site, been reading it for years :)

  4. Database not reliable... on How to Tell if the RIAA Wants You · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Out of the two names i tried, bluemonkey13 and our famous munkeyspanker21, only bluemonkey worked...

    Don't rely on this too much.

  5. Re:Oh man! I wonder... on The RIAA's Hit List Named · · Score: 0

    If monkeyspanker21 is still spanking his monkey?

  6. Re:And still on Toshiba Introduces A 17"-Screen Laptop · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's beside the point.

    I've noticed this too, there is quite a bit of room between the ends of the keyboard and the ends of the laptop, tons of room for a full sized numberpad instead of those crappy integrated ones that aren't aligned right and require some key combination.

  7. Of course it's a different situation.... on Bill Gates On Linux · · Score: 2, Informative

    In the OS2/Windows battle they were both retail packages, and one crashed much more than the other.

    With the Linux/Windows battle you have an open source, cheap, stable, varied and fully customizeable system vs. a repeat of the same old win2k base... no matter what crappy name you throw on it. Also, Linux ditros don't have crappy software licences which i'm sure nobody likes.

    Microsoft is blind to view this as the same battle as OS/2. They are underestimating their opponent and it will be their eventual downfall.

  8. Excellent technology on TV Brick - Open Source TV Streaming? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This is a great use for video capture.

    Now people can view foreign programs, use their computer+tv at the same time, as well as a number of other things and the TV execs can't do much to morally sway users against it as it would have all the commercials intact.

  9. Old news for me... ironically many. on Isn't It Ironic? · · Score: 1

    Yes, that's the right use. It's ironic that many people already know and have seen what is supposed to be "news" thus making it not news.

    I've seen this more and more. People who use ironic as a bussword, and as a synonym to "weird" or some such nonsense.

    Of course, isn't it to be expected? People do stupider things.

  10. Wha? on Isn't It Ironic? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Where did this come from?

    I mod this story (-1, Offtopic)

  11. Re:copy protection doesn't work on EMI and Sony Lose Lawsuit Over Crippled Music Disks · · Score: 1

    yeah but 67+% profit margins ARE stupid.

  12. Meh.. I saw it comming... on Have You Seen This Segway? · · Score: 0, Troll

    These arrogant a-holes who wheeling around all willy nilly telling people about their new toy was bound to get one stolen...

  13. Re:It's about time... So.... on Chimps Belong in Human Genus? · · Score: 1

    Does this make up Monkey v2.5beta? Or is that in violation with the linux naming system...

  14. *Sigh* on Chimps Belong in Human Genus? · · Score: 4, Funny

    5 million years apart and we still fling our poo at eachother...

    I think i see how we're 99.4% alike...

  15. Not to worry.. on Congressional Anti-Piracy Caucus Formed · · Score: 3, Funny

    If The Simpsons have taught us anything it's that Caucases are nothing more than a bunch of poorly inked drawings who congo line around a mountain lodge yelling "caucas caucas caucas!"

    Just like congress too.. always resting on their laurals.

  16. Excellent wording... on Cryptographers Find Fault With Palladium · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They are (naturally) concerned about vendor lock-in and having computers turned against their owners.

    This will give the whole "man over machine" persona to Palladium, thus making it unpopular.

    w00t!

  17. Re:PS2 addapter good- DREAMCAST on EA, Eidos Have No Plans for Xbox Live · · Score: 1

    Take a look at the faithfull Dreamcast, buddy. I never had ANY lag problems with it unless it was a server-side error, NOT from a bandwidth limit.

    It's just the problem of WHO has 56k anymore...

  18. Re:This leaves CO2 on Cow Manure --> Electricity · · Score: 1

    somewhat good idea...

    Plankton in the oceans produce TONS more O2 than plants do.

  19. Re:Just proves that... on GTA: Vice City Sells 8.5 Million Copies in 3 Months · · Score: 1

    You try to do fucking better, it's all about the idea of it, we all know that a PC emulator is loads better.

    Oh me oh my! I insulted GTA3, I shall burn in slashdot hell where wanna-be skaters will laugh at me and make untrue alligations toward me... oh me oh my.

  20. Re:Just proves that... on GTA: Vice City Sells 8.5 Million Copies in 3 Months · · Score: 1

    Actually they don't give a flying fuck what I play... I'm all into GOOD violent games, CS, Unreal Tournement, etc.

  21. Just proves that... on GTA: Vice City Sells 8.5 Million Copies in 3 Months · · Score: 0, Troll

    8.5 million drones will buy a buggy, unpolished game just to:

    1: Say they have it (it's teh uber 1337 with da' t33nz0rs!!!)
    2: Run around and shoot people some more, ignoring the missions
    3: Annoy me all day by talking about 80's music and how great the freaking game its.

    It's gotten so annoying, in fact, that I will never buy this game... ever... I will never fall to the same level of the ignorant little shits that buy it currently.

  22. Re:Viable idea on Presenting The CDR-ROM · · Score: 1

    That weird pancake pan that has two sides, and a hinge on the one end.... yeah I came up with that idea when I was like 8. Kinda shows how bad it actually is.

  23. Re:Viable idea on Presenting The CDR-ROM · · Score: 1

    Damn straight it's viable.... i've had this idea for years, too bad i'm only like 15 and have no klout in the electronics world at all.

    Number of times one of my ideas becamed a patented product: 2.

  24. Re:Haiku on NASA Gives Up On Pioneer 10 · · Score: 1

    Not it isn't... It's like listening to a fuzzy cell-phone line.. *cheesh*ca-*cheesh*bill*cheesh*

    Just say what you mean, don't conform.

  25. Sounds good to me... on Anti-Piracy Labeling Bill in Works · · Score: 3, Insightful

    No longer will I waste money on games that I can't blindread into Daemon's tools so I can toss the CD...

    I hate ever so much switching CDs.
