  1. I prefer the dumbed down versions we have today on Instant Messaging Goes Graphical · · Score: 1

    Sometimes bells and whistles are fun...... for a little while and become irritating. Like how everyone began using flash for web sites as well as frames.... just gets old fast!

  2. Thrive weeeeeeeeee! on Do You Thrive or Crack Under Pressure? · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah, although it can be stressful, I seem to be more productive under the gun. When there isnt much pressure, theres too much room to be goofing off and playing with yourself.

  3. Re:Now... how do I enable IGNORE CATEGORY? on Slashdot Goes Political: Announcing politics.slashdot.org · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Agreed! I dont think there is a need for yet another political outlet bashing of he said she said shit, but hey knock yourselves out!

  4. if its free..... on Philadelphia Considers Free Citywide Wireless Access · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Who will pay for all the bandwiths of the pr0n downloaders?

  5. Im excited! on South Park Creators Have A New Film · · Score: 1

    "You're excited? Feel these nipples!" - Bob Costas in Basketball.

  6. Question about the soil... on Banana Power! · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Normally they are just left to rot on the ground, but Dr Clarke says this damages the soil - and wastes a potentially useful resource. Wouldnt it re-enrich the soil with nutrients? Composts are used to fertilize, what makes bananas any different which destroys the soil? Great idea though if they can keep it cost effective.

  7. Gremlins on PG-13 Rating Turns 20 · · Score: 1

    I seen it when I was 10, with my father the first time, did it scar me? Hell no, I went and seen it 2 more times, with friends. We enjoyed it. As for PG-13 being made to not offend teens who wont see a PG movie. I think thats silly. I feel the studios are marking and editing down their movies so they dont get an R rating. AvP being PG-13? Come on their parents were R!!!! Add the filthy language in!

  8. Re:Fixes... on Winamp Skin Exploit in the Wild · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Amen! I use it to play music, I dont look at the damn thing. I know some people love skins, for me I dont need it, just need to hear the music not see the colors!

  9. Re:How the hell do they know? on Terrestrial (Rocky) Planet Discovered · · Score: 1

    I was also always under the impression a gas giant has no solid core. Am I wrong in my assumption?

  10. Re:How Does Apple Profit? on After Petition, Farscape Miniseries Trailer Online · · Score: 1

    Free i-pod commercial air time during the show!

  11. Why quietly? on Dozens Charged in Spam Crackdown · · Score: 1

    The feds should be announcing this to everyone they can. First to let people know that yes they are doing something about this. Second, to send a message to other would be spammers!

  12. Re:heh on Happy 13th Birthday Linux! · · Score: 1

    You could always go to the zoo and sing happy birthday to the penguins, and maybe they will toss some crackers your way :)

  13. Re:Americans on Microsoft Found Guilty of Misleading Advertising · · Score: 1

    I guess there are no unmoral companies operating outside the USA then? No corruption? Must be nice.

  14. Re:Advertisement of new product on Microsoft Found Guilty of Misleading Advertising · · Score: 1

    It's the corporate world we live in. A lot of companies will mislead in order to claim their piece of the pie. MS probably isnt even sorry they were found guilty, they still won in many circles probably just by getting their propoganda out there in the first place.

  15. Re:Only people pirate DVDs, not DVD players on MPAA Sues DVD Chip Manufacturers · · Score: 1

    Did they do this to VCR makers back in the day? Also arent there more than just 2 makers out there to sue? Sue everybody!

  16. Re:Not on FOX? on Interview With Chernobyl Engineer · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I may have a sense of humor and love the Simpsons, but this is not something to joke about.

  17. What happens to the 1 mis-classified email? on Revolutionary Spam Firewall Developed · · Score: 5, Interesting

    1 out of 25k is impressive, but what happens to these spam mails? Are they bounced back as an error "no user account found"? Or done like a blackhole where the spammer doesnt know if it reeached its intended recipiant? I like my SpamBayes :)

  18. I thought this would have been done already.... on Peeping Tom Worm That Uses Webcams · · Score: 1

    Webcams have been around for quite some time now and they are only getting around to writing trojans to be a peeping tom now? I dont personally own a web cam, have no need, but even if I did I probably would unplug it if it wasnt in use or might have an "American Pie" show.

  19. DS9 on Lucas to Make Sequels to Star Wars After All? · · Score: 1

    I know quite a few people couldnt stand this series. I actually felt it had a very good plot line with the Cardassians and the Dominion however. Sure it was based around a space station in the middle of nowhere, but they did many shows which were not aboard it. Rick Berman did an awesome job with it.

  20. Re:Carrie Fisher in Bikini's on Lucas to Make Sequels to Star Wars After All? · · Score: 1

    But she can shed those pounds if she got back on the C and H trains!

  21. Timothy Zahn's trilogy would be awesome! on Lucas to Make Sequels to Star Wars After All? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Grand Admiral Thrawn would be awesome to watch. The storly line of this trilogy was well thought out and written well. Of course the main participants of Luke and the gang came in and saved the day like they do in most of the post Episode 6 novels, they would have to get others to play their parts since they are all way too old. The guy who played Chewbacca has a clause in his contract that he must be in any sequels after RotJ, I believe I read that on starwars.com but could be mistaken.

  22. I never really had a problem with Best Buy on Best Buy Sued By Ohio · · Score: 1

    I have bought a lot of products from them over the past few years and never really had any issues with them. Ive heard of many complaints and even a site out there bestbuysucks.com (or org i forget) which I found a bit on the humorous side. I had one issue which I just decided on another item. That was a Western Digital drive with a large rebate. The drive was defective though, so I had brought it back for an exchange and when the cashier didnt give me the rebate receipt form, I inquired and the promotion expired. I had her return the drive and went with another one with a similar rebate offer. Other than that, no issues and ive bought items from dvds to washers/dryers.

  23. Re:I have four gmail invites on Google Releases Gmail Notifier · · Score: 1

    I see it! Could I have an invite please? thrymm @ yahoo.com Thanks :)

  24. Re:Gmail invites on Google Releases Gmail Notifier · · Score: 1

    thrymm@yahoo.com Thanks!

  25. Re:This is not a troll on Hotmail Means to Double Gmail Storage · · Score: 1

    Shit I am still way under 5mb which yahoo used to limit users a while back. Hard Disk storage is so cheap now, buy a 20gb drive and use it for backup. I wouldnt keep any emails which I need in the future online and in theory out in the open.
