    is daveo's quote related to this? ;0)

  5. Re:Will it ever stop? on More Stupid Patent Tricks · · Score: 1

    the beastie boys, on their website, http://www.beastieboys.com/, are offering any 40 songs you choose on 2 cds. would this be a patent violation?

  7. Re:So hard to believe? on The Starchild Project Claims to Have Alien Skull · · Score: 1
    one possibility that daveo has thought of to explain the amazing similarity between humans and the traditional alien figure, is the possibility that these are humans in the future, perhaps on another planet, that have performed time travel. maybe they have used genetic engineering? the trend seems right, less hair, more uniform colored skin, larger head, more intelligence, less digits. who knows?

    there is also the chance that aliens planted life "seeds" here, but that seems not to fit in with evolution and our similarity to both the aliens and lesser organisms on earth.

  8. Re:So hard to believe? on The Starchild Project Claims to Have Alien Skull · · Score: 1
    the manner in which it is presented also gives away the intent... it is too commercialized, flashy, anxious to convince us. the story of the mexican girl sounds made up as well.

    if you look on the main page, where there is a picture of human skulls and the starchild skull, the starchild skull almost looks as if it was sides of 2 human skulls put together (look in the middle on the top, there is almost a split)

  9. 727? on Convert a Boeing 727 Into a Home · · Score: 1

    make sure you have your oxygen masks, parachutes, and liferafts ready in case of a mechanical failure! ;0)

    this service will let you surf anonymously for free, avoiding such problems at this.

  11. Re:capitalism gone mad... on Nintendo Sued Over Pokemon Gambling Addiction · · Score: 1

    the companies did not believe you are stupid, it is only that, unfortunately, they must put these warnings on because otherwise similar lawsuits will be won, however ridiculous it is. daveo thinks that people who knowingly file lawsuits like this, with no damages taken, just to gain exposure and profit, should be prosecuted or pay for legal fees.

  12. Re:Yet another proof US courts are a joke on Nintendo Sued Over Pokemon Gambling Addiction · · Score: 1

    but who did she sue? the microwave company perhaps?

  13. Re:Ummm... on Nintendo Sued Over Pokemon Gambling Addiction · · Score: 1

    daveo believes you are talking of the recent baseball card suits, which have been dismissed. nintendo has been citing these as justification, and has quite a legal precedent.

  14. where else do drug users hang out? on Philippines Puts Curfew on Internet Cafes for Minors · · Score: 0

    daveo thinks that if they will not allow this in cafes because they are afraid of drug users, then they should shut down every bar in the country. the hypocracy!

  15. Re:This contest seems rather unfair... on Man vs Machine Story Writing Contest · · Score: 0

    well daveo's last time was when reading the imap rfc (whew!), which he must read again, for working on his mail-and-news program in java. maybe doing smtp, nntp, and pop3 first would be a good idea! ;0)

  16. Re:Anyone remember Racter? on Man vs Machine Story Writing Contest · · Score: 1
    daveo does think that it is somewhat sad that most people, including the general public, are so geared towards rooting for humans in activities such as this and chess.

    we cannot change humans' capabilities, so they will remain as they are. however, computers are only a tool that process information, no emotion and such. however it is humans that from such a serial device create methods that "think" and do complex tasks.

    this is a great accomplishment. people should recocgnize that it is humans who win when the computers win. however, they may only think of a big machine taking over the world and not see the truth.

    lol, daveo was about to try MICROSOFT-DOMnsi, but realized it would not be smart ;0) better would it be to throw pies than to risk being sued!

    but how would nsi make such a mistake, it is bad, even for them.

  22. Re:Not surprising. on Broadband Net Access in the News - and in Canada · · Score: 0

    please do not let us sink in to another debate of socialism and capitalism. if a use wants a service, it should be asked for. no one should have the power to force others to provide services.

  23. Re:The heights of low taste on Geek CAM watching Hurricane Floyd in South Florida · · Score: 0

    you may want to try new york city, or if pollution is a problem, long island, where daveo lives. a few years ago there was a blizzard that dropped some 26" of snow, but that was a very bad winter and very little damage was caused. hurricanes have no hit since 1938 and rarely do, tornadoes are almost non-existant, and earthquakes are almost unheard of. another mentioned a nor-easter, but these are just strong storms, not disasters, and your only worry would be beach erosion etc for people who choose to live on the beach, which few peopl edo.

  24. Re:The depths of poor aim on Geek CAM watching Hurricane Floyd in South Florida · · Score: 0

    will not some circumstance prevent us from seeing the true brunt of the storm? it seems only obvious that well before houses are being ripped apart, electricity or a power line will come off, his isp will shut down, or some other factor along the way.

  25. Re:using the dreamcast as a pc/hacking toy on Telnet into Dreamcast? · · Score: 0

    what is the compile problem? also, some people say that the dreamcasts read cds, so can they also read programs off cds? oh yes, one last question, can they be somehow hooked up via ethernet cards? sega's site says it has only an internal modem.
