  1. Re:touchstone on History of a Famous Star Wars Scream · · Score: 1

    i caught it in ROTK as well.

    i coulda sworn there was a story about this before..and even then this wasn't anything newsworthy.

  2. so.. on Take Two/Rockstar Reveals Plans, Designer Sues Over GTA · · Score: 2, Funny

    ..the guy invented the concept of warring street gangs? i guess then its only fair that the filmmakers from The Warriors sue him for prior art. =)

  3. identify theft protection.. on DoCoMo Starts Cell Phone Smart Card Trial · · Score: 1

    ..sew your cellphone to your hand.

  4. Re:sound quality for mp3 is not as good as ITunes on Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5! · · Score: 1

    try some of the other EQ presets (or make your own). the baseline EQ that winamp has always come with has always sounded 'flat' to me, too. i prefer the Rock preset for most everything.

  5. Re:New math? on AOL Lays Off 450 In California · · Score: 3, Funny

    riaa cd-burner math?

  6. Re:I suspect we use the same company on Dell Moves Call Center Back to US · · Score: 1

    oh ive got this one beat. i used to work at sprintpcs and hated every minute of it. two of my faves:

    the guy who couldnt find the 'end' button on his phone. all he could find was 'pn...u.' (phone upside down)

    the woman who called to activate a replacement for her cellphone that had no display screen (cordless phone. after all it was cheaper)

  7. w00t! on Dell Moves Call Center Back to US · · Score: 4, Insightful

    our company was one of the dissatisfied customers, we've been pushing for this for the past six months as its been just unbearable.

    the worst part about it was that they knew the problem existed. if you somehow magically got somebody in the US that could help you, they'd finish the call in 5 minutes, no prob. if you got India, not only would it take an hour, but then they would have to transfer you to a 'quality control agent' who was basically a US operator that would repeat the entire course of the call to make sure they did the right thing!

  8. Re:How about a .torrent? on Mandrake 9.2 ISOs Available · · Score: 1

    pulling 212k/s currently from the above torrents. my saviors!

  9. Re:Enter the Matrix on Star Wars - Knights of The Old Republic PC Gold! · · Score: 3, Funny

    maybe its still on his list because he hasnt been able to force himself to finish it. which, well, you know, i can understand. =)

  10. Re:big deal? on Satellite TV From a Moving Car · · Score: 1

    huh. learn something every day. =)

  11. big deal? on Satellite TV From a Moving Car · · Score: 1

    so the big deal of this is the fact that the satellite can maintain a signal while the car is moving? isn't this exactly what my Sirius satellite radio has been doing for a while now? or any of the bojillions of XM radios that come in Chevys now?

  12. hrmm.. on The Ten Most Overpaid Jobs In The U.S. · · Score: 1

    ..i'm just getting a site that wants me to log in, whereas everyone else seems to be reporting a /.ing.. odd.

  13. Re:so.. on Belkin Routers Route Users to Censorware Ad · · Score: 1

    i hadn't thought of this, and the repurcussions if someone were taking a test online or something and hit that before they knew about the feature. thanks for making a good point. =)

    although i'm still not sure how i warranted a 'troll' out of that..

  14. so.. on Belkin Routers Route Users to Censorware Ad · · Score: 1, Troll

    ..if you can disable it, and the instructions mention that you can and explain how to, is this really that big a deal?

  15. Re:Let's Get This Out of the Way... on Three More Solar Flares · · Score: 0

    noticably late first solar flare post?

  16. Re:Nothing really matters. on Three More Solar Flares · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    fire-ant torture? huh? i musta missed something, got any linkage?

  17. Re:Bin Laden is a stupid gimmik for a game on Fugitive Hunter's Bin Laden Fistfight Shenanigans · · Score: 1

    heh, i must admit, me too. those Dual Jewel sets rule. i got that one, as well as Descent Freespace packed with either its expansion or Freespace 2, i don't recall at the moment, but it was like $10 too.

    but, still, you know what i mean. =)

  18. Re:Bin Laden is a stupid gimmik for a game on Fugitive Hunter's Bin Laden Fistfight Shenanigans · · Score: 2, Funny

    you're being too kind with the 'legitimate' branding. think about it, this is the kind of title thats going to sit in a jewel case in Wal-Mart next to Big Deer Hunter 9 and Bubba's Hunt Fest for $9.

  19. Re:Scandalous! on Are Review Units Better Than Store Versions? · · Score: 1

    god i love this guy! =)

    hey wait, isnt it like some ungodly hour Down Under right now?

  20. Re:WinRAR version. on Half Life 2 Source Code Leaked · · Score: 1

    that did the trick, thanks pal.

  21. Re:This is BAD! on Half Life 2 Source Code Leaked · · Score: 1

    what method did you use to successfully extract it? i got it from the BT link up towards the top of the comments (its near my other comment) and i cant get the thing to extract, using Winace, Winrar, or good ol stand by dos-based unrar. says file headers are bad on every file inside it and won't extact anything except the directory structure and a readme way down deep.

  24. well, somebody is gonna say it.. on New Anti-Swap CDs Hit Shelves · · Score: 1, Funny

    ..who the frig is Anthony Hamilton, and is this an artist we should be getting all upset about 'losing' (for lack of a better slashdot-oriented term) in the first place?

  25. Matrix 'Comic' on Ask Neil Gaiman · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I really enjoyed your short story you wrote for the Matrix website when they had their series of 'comics' coinciding with the release of the second film. Are there any plans for you to be involved in any way in any future works in that series?
