  1. sweet on First HDD MPEG4 Video Camcorder · · Score: 1

    Just wait for a mod-chip for one of these things that allows you to replace the hard drive with a bigger one. You can also do this with the xbox. :-)

  2. damn... on South Pole to Get Highway · · Score: 1

    I mean, I thought we had it bad around here for getting potholes fixed before, now the South Pole highway will probably take priority over us too!

  3. Don't just leave it out... on How Much Does it Cost to Produce a Recording? · · Score: 1

    I have left out the cost of actually printing and copying the albums as I think that the average cost is probably less than $0.25 per copy.

    You say that 906.6 million cds are sold per year and you don't include the $0.25 cost of copying and printing?

    906,600,000
    x 0.25
    ------
    $226,650,000

    Maybe you should have added that in...

  4. Re:I call karma whoring BS! on Robin's Report From LWCE · · Score: 1

    I call karma whoring BS! Just look the troll's history.

    I knew there wasn't a such thing as "Booth babes"...

  5. Re:I'm at LinuxWorld this very moment! on Robin's Report From LWCE · · Score: 3, Funny

    must say the booth babes are really hot this yr

    What are these "booth babes" you speak of? There are none of them in my basement... =P

  6. pattern? on MonsterHut Jammed for Spam · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't think the "*huts" are doing to well... I mean, Fingerhut, Monsterhut, etc... But i wonder about Pizza hut? =P

  7. Re:XBox Live on XBox Chip With Legal BIOS · · Score: 1

    How does this change the problem with playing XBox Live with a modded XBox?

    You can use Gamespy Arcade and a tunnel program to play quite a few online games for free, even with a modchip. I wouldn't pay for a service like that to play games when I can play them for free...

  8. I got a question for ya on U.S. Air Force Developing Microwave Weapon · · Score: -1, Troll

    Whats the difference between your mom and a microwave? Nothing, you can slide your meat into both of them!

    Sorry... =P

  9. What will this do for us? on Helix Server Source Released · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I mean, that is wonderful that it is open-source and all, but why would they do something like this? Do they really want everybody making their own streaming format off of their source code or do they expect people from the OSS community to basically write their code for them?

  10. Yep on Multimedia Windowpanes · · Score: 1

    A Minnesota company is...

    Ya sure ya betcha! =P

  11. Sweet, but... on Phantom Game Console · · Score: 4, Funny

    But can it topple Duke Nukem Forever as the #1 vaporware item for this year?!?!?!

  12. Basically... on F'd Companies · · Score: 0, Insightful

    Its seems that most online companies are F'd.... I could have written this book in 1 paragraph =P

  13. Now what they need... on South African Gov't Declared An Open Source Zone · · Score: 1

    ... is "No Propietary Software" signs everywhere sort of like the no smoking signs with the circle around it and the line going through =P

  14. Guys... on Garmin Palm Device With GPS · · Score: 3, Funny

    Just wait for this story the 2nd time around, I am sure it will be up as soon as taco hears about it in a few days...

  15. well... on Second Hand Hard Discs Reveal Secrets · · Score: 3, Funny

    I found a bunch of Spice Girl stuff (3GB+) on my friends 'broken' hard drive he gave me... I was sorta afraid when I saw that, really makes me wonder about him...

  16. Hmmm... on Nvidia Talks About Next-Gen Geforce, Plus Pics · · Score: 2, Funny

    I wonder if they are coming out with a laptop model also... =P

  17. Re:PVR ability? on The XBox as the Home Entertainment Media Hub · · Score: 2, Informative

    I was reading that they are looking for people to help produce an adapter that would more than likely go through the ethernet port they said. They have the design basically done, just need someone to make it real.

    I would prefer it to use a controller port... What if I want my home entertainment media hub to access a network to play movies and music?

  18. But... on Programming Languages Will Become OSes · · Score: 1

    I thought AOL was my computer and OS... =P

  19. Whoa! on Hacker's Delight · · Score: 2, Funny

    3313 bytes in body

    I almost thought that was 31337 or something!

  20. I was wondering on High-Speed Multimedia Hamming · · Score: 2

    I am actually looking for a way to get wireless access to my personal network a safe (secure) and legal way. I just want internet and access to my network in my car or wherever I may be in the general area of my house.

    Anybody know of some good cost effective methods that do this?

  21. I hate this. on Hollywood Muscles Aussie ISPs Over Movie Downloading · · Score: 1, Informative

    This kind of stuff and I often hear of colleges that don't allow students to use certain ports at all. Isn't there a way to stop colleges from doing this? What if you had another reason to use those ports, a reason they don't know about.

    Somehow this has to be against your rights somehow...

  22. Good on Palm Kills Off Graffiti · · Score: 2

    I am guessing Graffiti sucks more than if they would have tried to interpret our normal style of writing, I am glad that is gone!

  23. Geez... on SCO Has "Made No Decision" On Linux IP Claims · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Not only does /. repeat the stories, they start changing them around!

  24. Cool on S3's DeltaChrome Examined · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I wonder if S3 is on the way back again in the market. I am starting to design a media station like system using a projector for my future house. Are there any decent frameworks out there for designing a network capable media center?

    More power to them for bringing some more competition into the market (again)...

  25. Or... on Wi-Fi Alliance To Brand Public Hotspots · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Someone make a website that tracks all local access points... I know there are region specific sites out there, but it would be free.
