  1. it's just hype on Sony's PS3 Strategy Brilliant or Insane? · · Score: 1

    i'd say in PS3's case, all press like this is great press, and the mystery creates 'headlines' like this one on slashdot. people get talking about it, and start thinking about skipping the x360 and saving up for this amazing mystery system. remember the INCREDIBLE ps2 cpu hype? they made it sound like the ps2 had A.I.. It turned out to just be nothing special at all. i just wonder how long before disc read errors start popping up with the ps3..

  2. good one on Comparing MySQL and PostgreSQL 2 · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Since then both databases have evolved to wherever they are today." Thank you for that profound insight..

  3. sentence on Spammer Scott Levine Convicted · · Score: 1

    maybe they should sentence him to reading every single one of his spam mails out loud to himself

  4. while we're at it on Owner of the Word Stealth 'Protecting' Rights · · Score: 1

    just so you know guys, i exclusively own the rights to *all uses* of the letter s (as used to make words plural), so cut it out, ok!

  5. ignoring? on BitTorrent: Sysadmins to face the music · · Score: 1

    if you wanna see the best way of ignoring infringement complaints about bittorrent, read the piratebay's legal threats section.. http://thepiratebay.org/legal.php

  6. Prices? on 164 Million Broadband Subscribers Worldwide · · Score: 5, Interesting

    This is good, I think, but why have the prices been so stagnant.. at least where I live in Canada.. the cost of broadband has been roughly the same for a long time if i'm not mistaken, and where is Internet 2 that we've heard about that so much faster? Shouldn't the cost be going down with this increase in usage?

  7. maybe i'll be quoted in 15 years.. on PetaBox: Big Storage in Small Boxes · · Score: 4, Funny

    "nobody needs more than a perabyte of storage"

  8. Re:pic of osx on a pc on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 1

    didnt make the pic but thanks

  9. definitely fake on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 2, Informative

    just looked at one of the rars, its just GNAA or some shit repeated over and over... lame

  10. Re:pic of osx on a pc on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 1

    you can make that out?

  11. pic of osx on a pc on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 1
  12. piratebay on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 1

    thepiratebay.org now has a torrent for the cracked version of it

  13. is it hot in here? on 3.9 Million Citigroup Customers' Data Lost · · Score: 5, Funny

    seems the brown has hit the fan

  14. No Profit on Laptops Outsell Desktops · · Score: 1, Interesting

    A friend of mine who works at Future Shop told me that one of the only things she doesnt get discounts on as an employee are laptops. Why? Because Futureshop sells them at the same price they get them for. They don't make a profit on them. They're really pushing everyone to go mobile..

  15. quantum on Single Molecule Transistor A Reality · · Score: 0

    i wonder if this has any worthy implications for quantum computers.. doesnt the human brain have similarly sized switches?

  16. musicbrainz on New Phone Service Promises to ID Songs · · Score: 0, Redundant

    there is a program called MusicBrainz tagger, and you can download it and run it agains all your mp3s to tag them properly http://www.musicbrainz.org/ it uses each mp3's digital signature to do this, and works fairly well, though if most of your songs are off p2p and not ripped cds, it has more trouble due to crappy variations..
