  2. Re:Wha? It's not International Cake Day? on Happy 7th Birthday Google! · · Score: 1

    It's far better then being an idiot without a bunch of cakes. Trust me, I KNOW!

  3. Re:Happy Birthday to Lawsuit on Happy 7th Birthday Google! · · Score: 1

    I didn't just repeat it. I also fixed the spelling.

  4. Happy Birthday to Lawsuit on Happy 7th Birthday Google! · · Score: 5, Funny

    Too bad I can't sing them a birthday song without invoking a lawsuit.

  5. CSS ZenGarden on Slashdot HTML 4.01 and CSS · · Score: 1

    You should get some of the CSS Zen Garden guys to come up with something.

  8. Re:Nothing New Here on Is Yahoo Actively Supporting Adware? · · Score: 1

    I agree. I think search engines should lower pagerank for sites that are using popups, popunders, etc.

  9. Re:Nothing New Here on Is Yahoo Actively Supporting Adware? · · Score: 1

    Okay.

  10. Re:It's True! on Is Yahoo Actively Supporting Adware? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I really don't like those toolbars. It's like giving up screen real estate for things I'm not using. Might as well be a advertisement in that spot. If I want to use yahoo, I'll go to yahoo.

  11. Nothing New Here on Is Yahoo Actively Supporting Adware? · · Score: 1

    I've used Yahoo since 1996 and every time I do a search there, I've always got at least a dozen popups from the top results.

    Man, I've wanted this controler for years!

  13. Re:Gambling on World of Warcraft Card Game Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    RTFA.

    Upper Deck is looking at having special silver foil cards in packs that once scratched off, like a lottery ticket, could reveal a special code.

  14. Gambling In Game vs IRL on World of Warcraft Card Game Coming Soon · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Blizzard does not want to have gambling in game (because it's not P.C.), but they have no problem with real scratch off tickets? Hmmrm. I guess it's who owns the casino, eh?

  20. Just like the normal windows on Microsoft To Sell Win XP Starter Edition In Russia · · Score: 1

    "This release of Windows is aimed at markets in developing nations, and is known for not allowing more than three aplications to run at the same time and not being networking capable." Ahh, so it'll be just like the normal windows.

  21. Re:You think the GAME was frustrating? on Both Tea And No Tea - Updated Hitchhiker's Game · · Score: 1

    I know I don't feel stupid. Just the fact that he had a different experience with a product then both me and justforaday did, doesn't make either of experiences inaccurate. My markers did run out, his didn't. It could have been different batches, different years, lots of things. The hint books actually did have text in a little back section that said if your markers ran out you could develop them using a household mixture. That actually was true. But hey, this was all at least 15 years ago. So I don't sweat it.

  22. Re:This game is EVIL!!! on Both Tea And No Tea - Updated Hitchhiker's Game · · Score: 1

    I made it back on my C64 all the way to the heart of gold, but I'm not sure if I got bored of it by then, if I had gone mad, or if I just gave up out of sheer frustration.

  23. You think the GAME was frustrating? on Both Tea And No Tea - Updated Hitchhiker's Game · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You should have bought the hintbook for it. In order to get an obscure clue, you had to highlight it with a special marker. Unfortuantely, there were far more clues then ink in the marker. There was a rumor you could develop the answers with lemonade, and I guess that wasn't a bad idea to try (since if you wanted the answers you had to buy a new hintbook anyway for a new marker...)

  24. Re:thankfully on Judges Junk Jailcam · · Score: -1, Redundant

    That was funny.

  25. Re:Am I the only one... on Atlantis: Discovered at Last? · · Score: 1
