  1. Re:When I get my T-Rex... on Scientists Find Soft Tissue in T-Rex Fossil · · Score: 2, Funny

    I wish Dodge had actually made the T-Rex. A 6x6 off road gas guzzler....sweeeeeet!

  2. Re:My mini mac on Accessories for Mac mini · · Score: 1
    I just need to replace the slow hard drive with something faster than 4200 RPM
    Supposedly the 80 GB drive is 4200rpm and the 40 GB drive is 5400rpm
  3. Re:Paying on If The Problem Persists, Reboot The Car · · Score: 1

    We had a 1990 Eagle Premier, very electronic heavy car. Electronic HVAC and stereo controls would go unresponsive and the only fix was a reboot!

  4. Re:duh... on Escape from the Universe · · Score: 1

    Don't forget to stop at the restaurant and get a bite to eat.

  5. Re:How big is *your* potato? on Opportunity Rover Encounters Its Own Heat Shield · · Score: 1

    True, but including the words "tater tot" just kills the front page news drama in the story.

  6. Re:In a word on Does Your LCD Play Catch-Up To Your Mouse? · · Score: 1

    I will add a second nod for this monitor. As far as gaming on it goes...I can't blame the monitor or mouse for my bad play.

    Now if only I could afford two of these.

  7. Re:How did they know? on Busted For Using Library Wi-Fi Outside The Library · · Score: 1
    In the stereo example, can I listen to the music on the street, or should I run away with my hands covering my ears?
    Don't give RIAA any ideas.
  8. Re:Security? on Defending The Skies Against Congress And The Elderly · · Score: 5, Funny
    I sympathize with anyone who has anything negative to say about the government.
    Note to Michael Moore:

    Don't bother flying.
  9. Re:900mhz? on 2.4GHz-Friendly Phones? · · Score: 1

    And I will keep my 900 MHz Panasonic......until 5.8 phones aren't so ugly.

  10. Re:If Leo goes, I go. on G4TechTV Announced · · Score: 2, Insightful

    But If anyone told grandpa how to flash the bios and have it work, it would be Leo.

  11. Re:Read the brief, and damn is Infinium sad. on Infinium Labs Countersues HardOCP · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Someone should point out this to KB's Lawyers.

    "Infinium leases office space in Sarasota, Florida and Richardson, Texas under operating leases that expire in 2009 and 2007, respectively."

    Now which document do we listen to, a court filing or the SEC filing?

  12. Re:Read the brief, and damn is Infinium sad. on Infinium Labs Countersues HardOCP · · Score: 1

    Their arguement is basically:

    We have nothing to do with Texas, so you can't sue us?

    It doesn't sound to good a point to me.

  13. Re:Gnome and KDE? on KDE And Gnome Together At Last? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well if it is going to be that easy, I say do it. If I can do the things in Gnome that I prefer to do from KDE, or vice versa, I like it.

    Now don't ask me to give a technical answer for why, I for some reason prefer Gnome for admin stuff but like KDE for playing. Both desktops are an acheivement, they can only get better, and what a way to get better.

  14. Re:Privacy violation? on The Family That Spams Together Stays Together · · Score: 1

    Timmy's is on me.

    ...no wait I can't afford /.'ing a Tim Horton's.

  15. Re:Alcohol increases intelligence on Beer Bubbles Really Do Sink · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The Buffalo Theory.

    The buffalo herds move only as fast as the slowest members. This leaves the slowest getting killed off first. This leaves the heard faster and stronger.

  16. Re:3rd party connections on MS Hotmail Offline For Hours · · Score: 1

    It could have been, but Trillian was still running and not logging in.

  17. 3rd party connections on MS Hotmail Offline For Hours · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I thought they had blocked other programs again. Trillian and Gaim couldn't connect, but I installed MSN 6.1 and got right back on.

  18. Yarn? on Yarn Spun from Nanotubes · · Score: 1

    Yarn? I thought it said yam. Now a yam spun from nanotubes..that would be cool.

  19. Re:Corporate rollorball. on Echostar/Dish Network Pulls Viacom Channels · · Score: 1

    Just watch out for the house robots.

  20. Re:And the employees were left wondering... on Fired Via Instant Message · · Score: 5, Funny

    "There is no emoticon to describe what I am feeling!"

  21. Re:go fix Spirit! on Mars Rover Opportunity Lands Safely · · Score: 1

    They should have used LegOS.

  22. Re:Cool... on RIAA Takes the Fight to the Streets · · Score: 1

    Back in the early 90's in Toronto I witnessed Disney protecting it's trademarks. A big van full of suits would pull up in front of the street vendor, hand over a legal document of some sort, pick up anything related to Disney and leave.

    No mistake about the look of a high priced lawyer.

  23. A coffee a day on Best Way To Beat A Caffeine Addiction? · · Score: 1

    I would get a migrane just looking at something with caffeine in it. Building up a tolerence to caffeine took a bit of work, but now I get the headache without the coffee. There are even some benefits to caffeine, so moderation is the word. Drink tea instead of coffee or soda.

  24. Re:Um... on Should Hackers Get Their Own Logo? · · Score: 1

    It should be printed out and called "The Sacred Parchment"

  25. Re:wait, wait, wait on Closest Asteroid Yet Flies Past Earth · · Score: 1

    I do recall seeing one good fireball. It was a partly cloudy night, and it lit up the cloud fairly well. It was more blue/white than red/orange.
