  2. Aww on Kodak To Stop Selling Film Cameras In U.S. · · Score: 1

  3. Recordings on California Makes Recording in Cinema a Crime · · Score: 1

    Cam recordings suck, anyway...you always end up with some cropped video by a guy recording from the far right side of the theater. I'll wait for a screener DVD rip :-P

  4. Re:Sweet on Apple's iTunes DRM Cracked? · · Score: 1

    You could also just use Audio Hijack and record the stream, crop it the way you want with Sound Studio, and then encode that AIFF to whatever you want. It's not nearly as confusing as that.

  5. A Riddle on Fox Considering a Return of "Family Guy" · · Score: 1

    Peter: Ok, here's another riddle. A woman has two children. A homicidal murderer tells her she can only keep one. Which one does she let him kill?
    Brian: That's... that's not a riddle. That's... that's just terrible.
    Peter: Wrong, the ugly one!

  6. Woo! on Fox Considering a Return of "Family Guy" · · Score: 1

    Yeah America's great isn't it? Except for the south.

  7. Wrong! on Microsoft Proclaims Death of Free Software Model · · Score: 1

    "At least if Linux takes off, their viruses will propagate and we won't be seen as the bad guys any more."

    Linux? Viruses? What?
    I bet Valve still hates you guys.

  8. Re:Don't you even READ Slashdot anymore? on The Worst Jobs in Science · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    That's a dupetastrophe :-(

  9. Re:Applogies to Avril Lavigne on Adobe Makes Products Harder to Use, More Expensive · · Score: 1

    Sorry Adobe but you missed out
    Well tough luck that app's mine now

    Cracking's more than just a trend
    This is how activation ends

    Too bad that you couldn't see
    See the fact I don't have a key

    There is more than meets the eye
    I see the code that is inside...

  10. Re:Halting IE shipments... on Company Files Motion to Stop IE Distribution · · Score: 1

    We can only hope.

  11. Re:Relying on Autorun, that's moronic. on Newest Audio CD DRM Proves Ineffective · · Score: 1

    Pin 39 on the IDE bus is activity. Wire an LED to that.

  15. Re:It's no big deal really... on Microsoft Longhorn Delayed · · Score: 2, Funny

    But these ones will work... without holes. So it's different, you see.

    Giving you the same nice, slow connection. Who loves the FCC? :-P

  17. Re:No, we will not on Will Internet Users Pay for Content? · · Score: 1

    "With the exception of Apple users, who will do whatever Stevie tells them to" No, Apple (Mac!) users do whatever they want, and do it easily. If it happens to be buying music from Apple's Music store and putting it on an iPod, so be it. It's not forced upon us, it's just suggested by innovation and ease-of-use. What's wrong with choosing the complete, working, and easy solution?

  18. Question for the RIAA on Pew Study: File Traders Don't Care About Copyright · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I can go snag a book from the library for free, copy it onto paper, and give it back. There. I have it, without paying for it. Without being sued for copyright infringement. Same deal with music, only I'm using a machine to copy it.

    You can't stop it. What are you going to do about it? Stop selling music? Hah. If you can hear it, you can record it. Give it up.

    Don't think I don't buy music, though.

    Max: "Out the window, Sam. There's nobody but strangers out there."

  21. Number 1 Risk? on Microsoft Names Linux its Number Two Risk · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Their number 1 risk should be their own security holes.
    *cough* Slammer *cough*
    Then Linux.

  22. Re:Ya know on Yet Another Windows Worm · · Score: 1

    "The day that linux worms run rampant is the day it becomes a successful desktop." How?

  23. Microsoft wishes it was this easy! on Microsoft Plans An Overhaul For Patch System · · Score: 1
