    And they can be turned off.

  2. Re:Shock! Horror! MS Office costs 10c! on Inside the Third Gen iPod Nano · · Score: 1

    The same as EA basically saying you're SOL if you lose your CD-key.

  3. Re:Rocket-Propelled Bionic Arm on Rocket-Powered Bionic Arm Successfully Tested · · Score: 3, Funny

    Same thing I thought... "ROCKET PUNCH!" What's next, missile-launching bionic breasts?

  4. Re:No, you're all wrong!! on Astronomers Witness Whopper Galaxy Collision · · Score: 1

    That's because KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut are already owned by the same corporation. I didn't think LJS is though... Anyway, that's why you see those combo restaurants. I think its convenient. Some family members want Pizza Hut, others want Taco Bell, they're in the same place.

  5. Re:"That'll make good TV." on Dateline NBC Mole Outed At DefCon · · Score: 1

    That was an awesome episode.

    PNC's branch ones do it down to the penny.

  7. Re:Okay.... on Microsoft Readies Cheaper 360 · · Score: 1

    In defense, I've seen a lot of times where those deals are only valid if you buy the specified number. Also, many times its a product that is likely to run out relatively soon, may as well stock up. example: pepsi 12-packs are 3 for $10 at Sheetz. My family tears through soda products, so three 12 packs will last us a week, maybe a bit more (whether that's a high rate or not is irrelevant). Makes more sense to get all 3 now, then to have to run back out in three days to get another and spend the gas money.

  8. Re:Finally! More single player games! on Fallout 3 Trailer Available Online · · Score: 1

    GW isn't, and never has really been an MMO. Also, its made to encourage team-play, as the henchies are really only good early on or as cannon-fodder... though the heroes in Nightfall are a bit better.

    with a crowbar? :p

  10. Re:Yokoi? on Sony's Ken Kutaragi To Step Down · · Score: 1

    Wakizashi is the term. It was used typically as a shorter alternative/backup to the katana. When indoors, swinging space is limited, thus the need of a shorter blade.

    Clarus? What's that? I know of Claris though.

  12. Re:Can't Wait on New Tools Help Create Cellphone-Friendly Web Sites · · Score: 1

    I've seen people drive stick while using a cell phone. So that isn't a good enough deterrent.

  13. Re:Who even still users WEP? on WEP Broken Even Worse · · Score: 1

    Last I checked, the fastest available cable internet solution (in the US) is 8 Mbps. 802.11b runs at 11 Mbps. 11 - 8 = 3. The wireless runs 3 Mbps faster.

  14. Re:Drummania comparison on Guitar Hero Developer Announces Rock Band · · Score: 1

    I love that guitar. It goes really well with Judy Nails (the character I usually use) too, so its win-win.

  15. I knew it on Gaming Skills Directly Linked to Surgical Skills · · Score: 3, Funny

    Trauma Center really is a training sim. When GUILT appears, there will be legions of gamers, ready to fight it.

    That's Mazinger Z, actually.

  17. Of course on NASA Considers Plans for Permanent Moon Base · · Score: 1

    As a secret staging ground for the resistance once the Decepticons take over.

  18. Re:Also on my laptop (sort of) on Why Your SNES Turned Yellow · · Score: 1

    Unless something has changed, Lenovo's laptops still say IBM. Got a T43 this summer, and I worked at a place that was almost entirely IBM/Lenovo and they all said IBM in addition to Lenovo.

  19. Re:Its a choice on Wii Aches - Couch Potatoes Working it Up · · Score: 1

    IR is only for the pointing. It uses RF (Bluetooth, actually, i believe) to communicate non-pointing data.

  20. Re:Oooooh big fucking deal on PS3 Pre-Orders Came and Went · · Score: 1

    Back when GMail was new, invites were hard to come by, and were often sold by those in posession of them. Now, everyone's got 100 self-replenishing invites. The market value kind of bottomed out.

  21. Re:Strategic feature removal on Why Can't Motion and Rumble Get Along? · · Score: 1

    Just look at the Game Cube from the passing generation. It has more powerful hardware (by far) than the PS2 and wasn't that far off from what the XBox was capable of... but multi-platform games consistantly looked worse AND lacked features because their proprietary disc format just didn't have the storage that was available on the PS2 and the XBox. Um... what? Have you ever done a side-by-side comparison? The Cube rarely lost to the PS2 in graphics, and with the XBox, it was often a toss-up. The disc also was also (IIRC) only proprietary in that it was smaller than a standard DVD, and most games (again, IIRC) for the PS2 didn't fill up the DVD anyway, most that came close were FMV-heavy RPGs.

    Flip them over to hit the weak spot for MASSIVE DAMAGE.

    You know, some people liked that game. Except for those god-awful driving levels...

    Did it? I wasn't much of a computer guy back then.

  25. Re:Noid! on The Next Step For The FPS - Advergames? · · Score: 1

    Dude, to the GP, Cool Spot friggin' ruled. Next to Sonic, it was one of my favorite Genesis games. I always thought the Noid was annoying though... used to torture a foam toy I had of him (it?).
