    7th Heaven? 7TH HEAVEN?? If you want to experience true murderous rage, please watch this show.
  5. Please say yes. on Ask Wil Wheaton Anything (Part Deux) · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's a vital plot point in my screenplay.

  6. Re:LIES LIES LIES!!! on Coffee is Addictive · · Score: 4, Funny

    You present a strong argument.

  7. Re:Yes and No on Would You Hire A Hacker? · · Score: 1

    Damned affirmative action.

  8. Re:Link to get it on 1 Million Firefoxes in 4 Days · · Score: 0

    You can't download anything in Linux?


    ;)

  9. Re:torrent here on The Incredibles Trailer Online · · Score: 0

    Arr, the trailer ye link to be an olden one.



    Say wha?

  10. Re:Deja Vu??? on Instant Messaging Goes Graphical · · Score: 1

    It's much much harder pretending to be a 15 year old girl with a webcam. I'm not saying it can't be done, but...

  11. Oh I got a good one! on The End Of DirectX As We Know It · · Score: 3, Funny

    Windows... uh.. Graphics... Foundation!
    Ha ha!
    What?
    Shit.

  12. Re:Prior Art? on Apple Patents 'Chameleon' Computer Case · · Score: 5, Funny

    And more importantly: STOP dropping acid!

  13. Re:Headlights! on Doom 3 Mod Seminar Hits QuakeCon · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    You have to download a mod for that.

  14. Re:wanh on Language Tempest At Orkut · · Score: 4, Funny

    Great, now even Slashdot's going all Portuguese.

  15. Re:Ports on Sega Dreamcast Gets Rogue RPG Conversion · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Why? Play emulated stuff on your TV for cheap. No modchip needed. No NES/Genesis/etc cluttering up the apartment.

    In regards to homebrew: think about how many awesome homebrew PC games there are (don't reply with a list unless it contains about 300 games). The DC homebrew scene is a fraction of the size of the PC scene, so I guess the number of excellent games rounds off to about zero.

    Anyway, I have enjoyed the emulated games/ports for Dreamcast.

  16. Re:The end of the universe is nigh.... on Doom 3 Reaches Gold Master, Due August 5th · · Score: 1

    You said you loved me! :(

  17. Re:Random page on Wikipedia Hits 300,000 Articles · · Score: 4, Funny

    There goes the last sliver of a chance of me getting any work done ever.

    Thanks :)

  18. Re:skype == spyware? on Skype VoIP Software Released For Linux · · Score: 3, Informative

    I did. They have changed the EULA since people were upset about the 'third party software' part. It doesn't seem as evil now, but I'm still so wary that I haven't installed it yet.

  19. Re:not all accts upgraded yet? on Yahoo Boosts Email Space in response to Gmail · · Score: 4, Funny

    Here's the trick. Sign out and then sign back in. Went from 6MB to 100MB in seconds!

  20. Re:Lucas too possessive to let someone else try on Can Star Wars Episode III Be Saved? · · Score: 1

    Of course he wouldn't let Spielberg direct! The end result would outshine all the other films. It would be "fucking brilliant."

    (But not as brilliant as the 1978 Holiday Special, my personal favorite)

  21. Re:And Then There's IE on Core CSS (2nd ed.) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Same problems here... but Explorer Exposed! helps me quite a bit. Good listing of IE CSS bugs and work arounds.

  22. Re:*ahem* Yeah, whatever. on MPAA Funds School Programs In Copyright Dogma · · Score: 1

    I totally agree. The fact that teacher says it's wrong makes piracy even more enticing!
    I see a lot of 1984 comments but I wouldn't worry about that. We still live in a society where multiple points of view are allowed (for now) so as long as we support organizations like EFF, Down Hill Battle, etc. kids will be able to learn something.
    Get involved!

  23. Re:Theremins and other benders on Consumer Electronics Make Music · · Score: 1

    So they bent the theremin?

    Well, it's theremin-esque simply due to it's portamento sine wave sound. So kinda-sorta would be my answer. :)

  24. Re:Theremins and other benders on Consumer Electronics Make Music · · Score: 1

    Actually the Beach Boys used a theremin-esque instrument where pitch was mechanically controlled.

  25. I thought.... on Running for Geeks · · Score: 1

    this was going to be an article about tech-savvy girls.

    Then I realized the headline wasn't 'Running From Geeks'
