  1. Re:Gosh what a great idea: on Should Games Be More Boring? · · Score: 1

    Your skill in Hoop-pushing has increased. (2)

  2. Re:Call me an idiot... on MySpace Agrees to Share Sex Offender Data · · Score: 1

    Maude needs to be on the sex-offender list...

    I mean come on!

  3. Eureka! on Netflix Sued Over Fradulently Obtained Patents · · Score: 1

    I wonder if they'd issue me a patent for a new patent system.

    I think this is too cheesy to be funny. Funny like the current patent system! I'm here all week.

  4. Aflack, err Affleck on NASA Can't Pay for Killer Asteroid Hunt · · Score: 1

    Yet we had enough money to make a (horrendous) movie about such possible events. We very well might deserve anything that hits us.

  5. this is a subject. on Dreamworks Dumps Wallace and Gromit · · Score: 1

    All's well that ends well, that's what I say!

    (This is good enough to be exempt from redundant... isn't it? Oh please.)

  6. Seperate? on State Trooper Fights For His Source Code · · Score: 1

    Is there some reason the software and the source code are "joined at the hip"? Or can he somehow argue them as seperate entities?

    They don't _need_ the code for it to work I assume, only to make changes etc.

  7. Re:Use Screenshots! on Judging a Game By Its Cover · · Score: 1

    The big problem with using this to judge a game is that it could be deceptive... To me a game that requires top-end hardware was probably very poorly optimized. Which could point to bigger problems of a lot more of the game not completed properly.

  8. Beta vs VHS? on Co-Founder Forks Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    VHS.. mp3.. myspace.. wikipedia?

    They weren't necessarily the best of their categories, but the public chose them as the standards of their time. I find it hard to believe that an off-shoot of wikipedia would surpass the original - at least in popularity.

  9. Speaking of... on Fighting Android Sparring Partner · · Score: 4, Funny

    I want mine with a Chuck Norris personality chip...

  10. 7" LCD?? on Nissan and Microsoft Create Videogame Car · · Score: 1

    This really doesn't impress me. A 7" LCD is all you get to look at while you play? When I read the title the first thing that came to mind was a giant screen filling the windshield, the rear window, modified rear-view mirrors, the works.

    That would impress me, this doesn't.

  11. This just in! on Microsoft Set To Be Fined $2.4M a Day · · Score: 1

    Micro$oft buys Europe, details at 11!

  12. On purpose? on Disabled Fans Shut Out of Galaxies · · Score: 2, Insightful

    They changed the controls so that it will be more compatible with consoles. Wouldn't a console controller be easier to control with a disability? (well more so than a keyboard and mouse setup)

    You'd think as someone with a disability you'd look for a solution rather than expecting the company to do so for you. You can't expect them to know and account for every possible disability.

  13. Re:CD ripping? it's the LPs I want ripped! on CD Ripping Services Compared · · Score: 1
    CD ripping? it's the LPs I want ripped!


    Give it time, some professors used optics to play records. Keeps the record from degrading with use.
  14. Re:Quality Repairs on Fix Your Crashing X-Box 360 With String · · Score: 1

    And if I just spent 400$ on a console, I would be really upset if I had to also buy a 100-200$ power supply.

    I'm pretty sure the poster meant Microsoft should have done it, not the end-user.

  15. Sloooow on Advances in New Western Digital Drives · · Score: 1

    Give me optical or give me death!

    http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page3.html

  16. The lazy way out... on Is Wi-Fi Ruining College? · · Score: 1

    Simply use text to speech and or audio recording and take a nap!

  17. cphack and decss mirror on Cphack, the GPL, And So Much More · · Score: 1

    download it here or here

  18. Re:E-mail on Game Companies Sue Yahoo! · · Score: 1

    oh, um. my bad. I misunderstood you.

  19. Re:E-mail on Game Companies Sue Yahoo! · · Score: 1

    But that doesn't mean Yahoo! reads each email. Email sent saying 'your auction has been placed' or 'your bid has been accepted' are all automated. They'd have to hire a whole new staff.

  20. here's another mirror for you on GPL To Be Tested by Mattel? · · Score: 1

    www.pepper-land.net/bin/cpbreak4.zip

  21. yes but... on Microsoft Unveils Gaming Console · · Score: 1

    It'll be released in 2001, but how many bugs will it have 32,000? 64,000?

  22. Artist on Concept Artwork For Snowcrash? · · Score: 1

    I recognize those pictures, those are from Craig Mullins, (think Marathon 2 and Marathon Infinity) And that picture has been up for at least a year, if not 2. That should give you a good idea on the time frame...

  23. Re:Kryotech vs this release. on More on Athlon Overclocking · · Score: 1

    Then Kryotech can overclock and cool the NEW cpu! that's what's great about them, upgradability!

  24. Re:Napter is a great util on Interview With The Creator of Napster on ZDnet · · Score: 1

    actually if you click file exit it will close. I really like that feature. And who cares if you fool every newbie? It's there jobs to learn...

  25. missing a capacitor on Intel Encounters Another Problem with RAMBUS · · Score: 1

    aparantly you never heard about the airline company who saved several hundred thousand dollars every [x] months by removing 2 olives from every salad.
