  1. Re:I'd Prefer MPAA Style Ratings on ESRB Ratings Across the Consoles Charted · · Score: 1

    Yes, but every parent out there knows what an "R" movie entails. The ESRB doesn't have to grade games like the MPAA does, just license the grading scale.

  2. Re:A cellphone without an accelerometer... on Sloshing Cellphones Reveal Their Contents · · Score: 1

    Umm, just look down?

  3. Re:No on Verizon Wireless To Open Network · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Yes, but you're still not going to get the iPhone running on Verizon's network. Unless Apple makes a new version with a CDMA radio in it. I'd imagine that their deal with AT&T would preclude that.

  4. Re:OB Reference on David X. Cohen of Futurama Talks About the Movie · · Score: 1

    With my last breath I curse Zoidberg!

  5. I think I speak for everyone ... on Deus Ex 3 Announced · · Score: 4, Interesting

    When I say "please don't suck, for heaven's sake, please don't suck."

  6. Re:BioWare No Big Loss For Microsoft on The History of BioWare · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is publishing Mass Effect.

  7. Re:Check with AT&T? on White House Ordered to Preserve All Email · · Score: 1

    That would be exactly my point. Its been done before and bitching that SHRUB R BAD misses the point.

  8. Re:Check with AT&T? on White House Ordered to Preserve All Email · · Score: 1

    Especially since if they started in spring 2000, it was under Clinton's authority.

  9. Re:BEST ACRONYM EVER on World of Warcraft Patch 2.3 Coming Next Week · · Score: 1

    Really? My guild calls it world of wackoff. Either are appropriate I would think.

  10. Re:Replacement had Nothing to do with it! on House Narrowly Avoids Having to Debate Impeachment of Cheney · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You realize that the Democrats expect to win the next election and want the same powers that Bush et al. have had.

  11. Re:Obvious on Wal-Mart's Terrible Nintendo Wii Knock-Offs · · Score: 0, Redundant

    That sound you hear is the grandparent's sarcasm going straight over your head.

  12. Re:Odd numbered trek movies, good or bad? on Paramount Casts New James T. Kirk · · Score: 1

    Even good, odd suck. But its all been downhill since 6. Although 8 wasn't completely horrible.

  13. Re:What this proves on Scientists Deliver 'God' Via A Helmet · · Score: 1

    No, this experiment explains how the sensations are created, not why they are created. If anything, it shows what God does to people. Through his mystical God powers he induces these types of stimulations in the brains of this followers.

  14. Re:Nobody should be surprised on Official - Bungie Departing Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Not made by bungie.

  15. Re:512MB on Leaks Reveal New Xbox 360 Package · · Score: 1

    FYI, they just released 2 japan-only games on the VC this week. Sin and Punishment for the N64 and Super Mario Bros. 2 - The Lost Levels for the NES. Well the lost levels has been released over here, but not the NES version.

  16. What's the point? on Microsoft Prepping Browser-based Word and Excel · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If you have to have office installed, why bother with the online version? I could see them requiring office to register for an account. But why bother?

  17. Re:Bad info in article. on Amazon MP3 Vs. iTunes Music Store · · Score: 1

    Checking one of the songs I got when I was a member there (which was close to 2 years ago FYI). iTunes says 215 VBR MP3, encoded w/ LAME 3.92. I can only assume that hasn't changed much. I liked emusic, just couldn't find enough to download, so I quit. Which wasn't that difficult. Just had to click through a few "yes, I'm sure. No, I don't want another month for cheaper" screens.

  18. Re:Did I really read that right? on Konami's Pre-TGS Conference · · Score: 1

    The wiifit board? or the eyetoy? Maybe you have to hit the buttons with your toes or something?

  19. Re:A little bit of writing you should read on University of Florida Student Tasered At Political Rally · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Freedom of speech is not a freedom to be heard and/or given an audience. He can say whatever he wants to whoever wants to listen. He doesn't have the right to hijack someone else's venue and force his views down other's throats.

  20. Re:Reform == good. First to file == bad. on House Passes Patent Overhaul Bill · · Score: 3, Informative

    No, lets say you come up with something cool. After the first date that you reduce your invention to practice, you have one year to file it with USPTO (assuming no other circumstances). If Big Company X comes along during that period, and creates the same invention, and files before you; your claim of invention will take precedent. However, under a first to file system, in the above scenario; you're screwed. Prior art will still invalidate a patent (although it will arguably not come up during prosecution under first to file). First to file puts extra emphasis on filing as soon as possible.

  21. Re:Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end, on Why Are So Many Nerds Libertarians? · · Score: 1

    I love you.

  22. Re:Yeah, but... on iPhone Freed From AT&T, Twice · · Score: 1

    Yes and no, from what I've gathered, the traditional subsidy that would go to you, goes to apple. I don't know what legal rammifications there are to skipping activation on AT&T's network, but it doesn't happen at the point of sale.

  23. Re:Yeah, but... on iPhone Freed From AT&T, Twice · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Given that activation of that contract doesn't occur at the time of sale, but upon activation later. Not much.

  24. Re:WoW & DnD on Gen Con 2007 In A Nutshell · · Score: 4, Informative
  25. Re:Region coding on NYT Confirms Movie Studios Paid to Support HD DVD · · Score: 1

    They'll play, but not in High-Def. That assumes the studios never impliment the Image Constraint Token, which they've said they won't until 2011(?).
