  1. Re:ain't no mathematicians on Mathematicians Become Hollywood Consultants · · Score: 0

    one grumpy arts student it seems? See below reply.

  2. Re:where? on Adelaide Gets a Taste of Free WiFi · · Score: 0

    Maldives? :)

  3. movies good, comics, not then? DOH on Free Comic Book Day 2005 · · Score: 0

    You mean people like movies like Spider-man, Batman, Superman, X-Men, Sin City, Hulk, Men In Black, The Crow, Punisher, Daredevil, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Daredevil, Blade, Elektra, Hellboy, Ghostworld, American Splendor, Flash Gordon, The Phantom, From Hell, The Mask, Spawn, Tank Girl... not to mention Akira et. al.

  4. Re:Plain text resume on Associated Press Reviews OpenOffice · · Score: 0

    I have interviewed plenty of people. Could not care less what format their resume was, as long as it was reasonably spaced and readable. Would actually prefer to read them on paper anyway, if it is someone I am going to have to work with. In fact, if someone had used something 'different' to write one, and mentioned it, likely to look more favorably upon them for lateral thinking. People are saying that recruiters use computer programs to scan resumes? Wouldn't want to be paying them much money, that is for sure.

  5. zapper? on U.S. National Identity Cards All But Law · · Score: 0

    That's interesting so if you have one of those zappers, you could go around a crowded place, making everyone's ids not work? Imagine someone with one of those in a long airport or bank queue then?

  6. Unfunded Re:But why? on U.S. National Identity Cards All But Law · · Score: 0

    Seem to remember a lot of complaining by republicans about democrat unfunded mandates vis a vis Bill the inhaler.

    What a shock to see hypocrisy from politicians?

  7. fascist Britain? on First Hand Look At Chinese Internet Censorship · · Score: 0

    good time for V for Vendetta movie then

  8. ain't no mathematicians on Mathematicians Become Hollywood Consultants · · Score: -1

    -- Having worked around script writers, though, I understand why this is: most of them are fools. or arts students, at least

  9. not funny on Taking on an Online Extortionist · · Score: 0

    If it is who you work for though. This has happened to bookmakers etc. all around the world, whether England, Australia, Austria, etc. (large publicly listed companies included)

  10. Re:Meesa no tink so! on Revenge of the Sith a "Blood Bath" · · Score: 0

    of course, the original Mad Max here was rated R, so you had to be 18 to see it at the time, think there was an edited one for the USA?

  11. uses for lightsabers on Revenge of the Sith a "Blood Bath" · · Score: 0

    In a blackout, it can be far easier to find your lightsaber, than the torch (and yes, I have done this). So get one for your next power failure!

  12. not fun enough on Revenge of the Sith a "Blood Bath" · · Score: 0

    If it was rated for kids, then as I kid, I certainly didn't want to see it, in general (and wouldn't pay to do so)

  13. Slovenia? on China to Top U.S. in Broadband Subscribers · · Score: 0

    Here's a question - when China filters the internet, do they just pick countries, or sites, or what? If there is a Slovenian version of something from the US that they don't like, do they have translators for everywhere, and stop them all?

  14. Re:Cop Killer: Brought to you by the RIAA on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    yes, was just mentioning that to the spousal unit the other day excellent album though!

  15. Sounds like a good start to a website on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    RIAAstoleMyMoney.com Get a bunch of stories put up there like this, see what happens.

  16. Re:Lacking Content on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    1000 songs is not a lot though? 100 albums at 10 songs an album?

  17. Re:Record industry execs say... on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    which brings up the question how many years in an iso-cube would Dredd give the RIAA honchos?

  18. Re: Robin Hood on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    as in this sense of 'illegal'? Fred could not buy product to save the life of his father because it was illegal.

  19. Re:Robin Hood on CMU Professor's Rebuttal Against RIAA Propaganda · · Score: 0

    Yep (currently looking at LP stack of boxes) and walls full of books All digital be nice though on moving days! Even more interestingly on that point, how long will the digital stuff keep for? Although vinyl problematic if you can't get record players any more when your last one finally fails. Have some 20-30 year old LPs and tapes that work fine, will the CDs and DVDs at that age?

  20. Re:where? on Adelaide Gets a Taste of Free WiFi · · Score: 1

    can't remember the 2 letter abbreviation for either Moldova or Turks & Caicos for the life of me!
