    Obviously they can't use real premature babies.

  2. Re:foobar on Sony, Nintendo Announce 'Fixes' For Their Consoles · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Welcome to the world of console gaming, now with patches.

    I take it you've never seen a black person.

  4. Re:priorities? WTF? on NVidia, AMD Subpoenaed In Antitrust Investigation · · Score: 1

    Both companies are enduring and adapting to a visciously short product revision cycle, where every couple months both companies release revamped versions of their graphics chips. This has had an incredibly positive effect on the market for software utilizing ever-more complex 3D graphics, as well as keeping the graphics card manufacturers afloat. My point exactly, neither company is competing with the other, they are both releasing nearly the same chips(performance wise) and nearly the same rate. If the car market worked the same way, you'd see the same amount of ford/gm/toyota cars on the road.
  5. Re:priorities? WTF? on NVidia, AMD Subpoenaed In Antitrust Investigation · · Score: 1

    Are they competitive? Last time I checked you could only buy an nvidia or ati pcie card. So while there are plenty of intel intergrated graphics out there, gaming is controlled by two corporations that are "deadlocked" with no outside competition.

  6. Re:Good. on "Revenge of the Nerds" Remake Cancelled · · Score: 1

    How about "Attack of the Jocks"?

  7. Re:Come on.... on UK Schools Bans WiFi Due To Health Concerns · · Score: 1

    Aether, its also one of the few elements that can create an effective shield against cancer causing wireless emanations. Unfortunately many companies neglect to use an aether shield in their devices due to its prohibitive costs.

    Yes please, we shouldn't be training people to use calculators.

  9. Re:Profit from language? on Do You Own Your Native Language? · · Score: 1

    You're right, Quebec does not have a "standard french", other nations do have their own standard language(ie. standard mandarin)

  10. Re:Profit from language? on Do You Own Your Native Language? · · Score: 1

    I doubt it, but up here in Canada in the province of Quebec not following the laws that govern french will earn you a fine. Just google "language police quebec"

  11. Re:Profit from language? on Do You Own Your Native Language? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Lots of nations standardize their own native language and regulate its use, so I don't see why a group of people cannot regulate the use of their own language.

    The nude textures are present in game they're just coverd up by a bra.

    The church says dogs dont have souls,personally I'd like to see this done to a human over a longer period, say a week, just to see what happens.

  15. Re:Troublesome how? on Save a Chatlog... Go to Prison? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What the poster probably ment was monitoring employee use of company facilities. Personal or not you shouldn't expect or have any privacy while using company computers.

  16. Re:Asymmetric Warfare? on Army to use MMOG for Simulation Training · · Score: 3, Informative

    I'm not sure if you know this but not getting killed is sort of a priority for soldiers. Training and equipment tend to help them with that. Oh, and if you dislike the current path America is taking in respect to attacking other countries, perhaps next election vote for the democrats? Remember if you don't vote, your "opinion" doesn't matter.

  17. Heavy on Bombardier's Embrio: Sexier Segway? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    If you look at the specs this thing is really heavy, I don't think I could lift 360 pounds so to me it more like a motorcycle then a segway.

  18. Why WVG is great. on WVG : The New Scalable Vector Graphics · · Score: 3, Funny

    WVG is exactly what the aging IE needs. With out incorporating new features Microsoft will be unable to keep up with their policy of releasing at least 1 brand new critical flaw once a year. Just imagine to power of SVG with 10% more bugs, added complexity, and lest we forget incompatibility with every other browser. WVG shows us that Microsoft can still continue to innovate by stealing other peoples ideas and branding them as their own.

  19. DNC Site on Successful Do-Not-Call Complaints? · · Score: 4, Informative

    The Do Not Call site does have a form that you can fill out to file a complaint the address is https://www.donotcall.gov/Complain/ComplainCheck.a spx

  20. Killing Spree on Disgruntled Fan Arrested, Indicted For Spam Attacks · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You know if the guy just went on a killing spree, he probably would have gotten less jail time. Makes you think how valuable your life is in the eyes of government.

  21. Server vs OS? on Is Linux as Secure as We'd Like to Think? · · Score: 1

    Comparing Linux server defacements and Window's viruses is like comparing apples and oranges. In one case we are talking about exploiting applications that run on top of Linux ie. a web server, in the other faults within the actual operating system that can potentially be devastating to the end user. Either way no piece of software is secure as long as someone decides to use it.

  22. Re:More profit on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 1

    Good point, imagine what will go next IE? Soon enough using windows will require a susbscription, not to mention extra fees to view e-mail, webpages, etc.

  23. More profit on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Cancelling development is obviously an attempt at moving people to either Outlook or Hotmail/MSN, either of witch would yield more profit for Microsoft.

  24. Hardware gets better, softeware gets worse on Computer Expectations of Today, and a Decade Hence? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Although hardware speeds have increased a 100 fold software has not kept up with it, instead software has become bloated and slow. Windows still takes a minute or longer to load, applications still crash and overall realibilty still has not improved.
