    and that $75 will get you about 10 miles in 2 hours? :)

  2. Re:The twelve steps of Democrats Anonymous on NY Times Op-Ed Page Goes Subscriber-Only · · Score: 0

    what business model would little ole Christo use for the New York Times then, being a higher power?

  3. Duck! Pan! Re:The many possibilities on A Step Toward the Diamond Age · · Score: 0

    Hi honey, this frying pan has tons more carats than that ring you wanted!

    (duck, and hope your diamond reinforced kevlar helmet works)

  4. Woof! Re:The many possibilities on A Step Toward the Diamond Age · · Score: 0

    man made diamond dog bowls and collars?

  5. Re:Wow on How Battlestar Galactica Killed TV · · Score: 0

    Do I care if there is never any more commercial tv except news and sport (or reality crap)?

    No.

  6. Re:Excuses Excuses on How Battlestar Galactica Killed TV · · Score: 0

    yeah, bloody channel 10, just before BSG (which is usually 10:30 Wed) said 'you can see this week's at 11 pm Saturday now'

    We will now show a REPEAT of a talk/variety show earlier in the week. (just because some nancy boy host got drunk at some 3rd rate awards show I think, or something)

    So much for the viewing habits. Saturday, couldn't get to it - so what to do now? Download it? Chance that it will be rerun is probably 0 or close enough to it.

  7. Re:This is totally true on How Battlestar Galactica Killed TV · · Score: 0

    and more people browsing Amazon presumably leads to more sales?

  8. Re:What if... on How Battlestar Galactica Killed TV · · Score: 0

    and hopefully monkeys?

  9. Re:Well yes, they would... on MPAA Cracking Down on TV Torrent Sites · · Score: 0

    so when you fill out a ratings report, you write, 'didn't watch ads, went and did a dastardly dunny depth charge' instead?

  10. no ads, damn on MPAA Cracking Down on TV Torrent Sites · · Score: 0

    but Doctor Who will be on in Australia, with, wait, you guessed it, NO ADS

    as it will be on the ABC, publicly funded

  11. Re:The main issue on MPAA Cracking Down on TV Torrent Sites · · Score: 0

    I am sure that you could swap with a Moldovan if Britain is so bad?

  12. Re:What sample? on Radio Listening Declining w/ Digital On Its Way Up · · Score: 0

    You are the perfect citizen and consumer then.

    Good boy.

  13. Random play IS here already on Radio Listening Declining w/ Digital On Its Way Up · · Score: 0

    and if you believe 'em, Triple M do do some random play segments! (say their playlist is 2-3K songs, not 2-300 according to the odd ad, again if you can believe it)

    not that 3000 songs is much - 300 albums? Or 1500 I guess at 2 'good' songs an album.

  14. carmesh WiFi? on Portable Internet Radio to take on XM? · · Score: 0

    actually being LA, wouldn't putting a tiny little one in every car work very well?

  15. Re:what are those idiots in the schools smoking? on Roadblocks to Linux in Education · · Score: 0

    when I was at school, no Windows or Linux, no PCs at all pretty much

    seem to be using both at work quite happily, and PCs - so whether you used the operating system or computers or not, big deal?

  16. Re:Such a Great Way to Market on Google Adds Movie Ratings, Times, Reviews · · Score: 0

    editors getting old and forgetful then? Time for 2.0?

  17. Re:This project explained in 11 words. on Broadcast Flag 2 - Electric Boogaloo · · Score: 0

    You going to have to save up for the horse then? :)

    Ewoks. Small very furry aliens who don't roar (or rip off limbs).

  20. Re:is a review going to stop anyone here from movi on Newest Star Wars Reviews Suprisingly Positive · · Score: 0

    becomes yet another possible $1 video rental, same as episode II

  21. Re:it was going ok,.... on Newest Star Wars Reviews Suprisingly Positive · · Score: 0

    hate life?

    that Dark Side sure is seductive, ain't it....

  22. Re:well for one... on What Would You Ask For in Copyright Law? · · Score: 0

    That is ok if you want to wait 5, or 30 years I guess in some cases for said shows?

    Case in point here is Smallville. Channel 9 showed up to about halfway through season 2, then stopped, no explanation, a couple of summers ago. End of season 4 pretty much in the US? Of course, you can't buy season 3, or season 4 (not even sure about 2, in Australia). May never get on tv, and may not be sold here for a few years?

  23. Re:5 years on What Would You Ask For in Copyright Law? · · Score: 0

    then you could always index the amount to match the percentage increases tax brackets, that would be interesting

  24. digital music tarts! on Hilary Rosen Gripes About iPod, iTMS · · Score: 0
