  1. Winamp on New Bill Ups Punishment For Hosts of Infringing Video Streams · · Score: 1

    I'm an avid watcher of Shoutcast TV and I've been trying for years to figure out how to stream stuff myself.

    Does anyone have any notion as to how the law will affect Shoutcast? I would hate to see it go.

  2. Re:This has all happened before. on BSG Prequel Series Caprica Canceled · · Score: 1

    I agree. Although in the case of Caprica I think even the poorest state of BSG was far better. I at least wanted to watch, even if I fast forwarded through things like the whole Starbuck musician romance silliness.

  3. In other news on Spitzer Telescope Witnesses Star Being Born · · Score: 1

    Geologists have observed the birth of a mountain.

    The title is a little misleading, but this observation is still another significant piece of the puzzle.

  4. Re:I assume the SOURCE fits into 4 kb on Hacking Hi-Def Graphics and Camerawork Into 4Kb · · Score: 1

    Am I the only one that got virus alerts from downloading from RGBA?

  5. Re:So how much are they paying you for this? on Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed Launches · · Score: 1

    It may be baseless, but I think it's the sign of the times. Companies pay people to post favorable reviews all the time. The fact that I decided to post a rebuttal is based on 3 months of playing the game. That's over $100 with tax. So I only point out that the game sucks and at some point in the future you will come to the same conclusion. That is of course IF you're not an SOE web-sub-contractor. Nice reply time BTW. 13 minutes. Lucky I didn't shut down for the day or I would have missed your little tit for tat.

  6. So how much are they paying you for this? on Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed Launches · · Score: 1

    The game stunk. I think SWG's only chance now is to weave porn into the game somehow and maybe some adware popups.

  7. The Matrix Box Office on The Best and Worst Movies of 2003? · · Score: 1

    Numbers don't lie:

    "The Matrix Revolutions" was a bad movie and the public quickly figured that out. On day 43 the OVER HYPED "Revolutions" dropped off the box office radar at 137 million.

    That's half of "Reloaded's" box office draw and eventually even the UNDER HYPED "The Matrix" made 170 million. If it wasn't for the simultaneous release world wide "Revolutions" would never have made its money back. Look at the numbers and its obvious lots of people went to see it early on then reality hit and moviegoers stopped going.

    Truth be told the sequels were over hyped and cashed in on a marketing concept instead of taking the chance and making a great film. This seems eerily familiar to another sci-fi franchise, but me cannot remember name.

  8. Can't wait to play CIV in space... Er wait a sec on Galactic Civilizations Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    I can see it now, I drop my space marines on a lowtech planet and begin my domination of the BRONZE age human like creatures. Oh no... Our power armor is no match for there bronze weaponry!!!!
    Yeah, I realize this after playing Civ III for 40 hours only to have hoplights destory my Panzer tanks. Low tech worlds won't need missle bases to defend there planets they can just use catapults.

  9. Re:Mod the parent down -- here's the real text. on When Profiling Goes Wrong · · Score: 1

    Dawn Freeman, 23, a tax analyst in Lexington, Ky., has bought lowbrow videos, such as "American Pie," from Amazon.com. But she was aghast when the site suggested Tom Green's gross-out performance in "Road Trip." I always new you were a freak Dawn... This world is getting to small. Peace out from Chi-town
