  1. RE: on Home Networking Simplified · · Score: 5, Funny

    Great... my mom will read this, set up a home network, and then I'll have to support it. Does the madness ever end?!

  2. RE: on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger to Arrive in April · · Score: 1, Funny

    I wonder if Apple will delay the release because of this leak? That'd suck!

  3. RE: on When Should You Quit Your Job? · · Score: 1

    If it's a big company, there's a chance that you can get reorganized to a different area, possibly getting away from what ales you. However, I've always believed that money talks...

  4. RE: Gas from Americans on Humans are Causing Global Warming · · Score: 1

    I believe that global warming is caused by all the farting that Americans do. It's that high fat diet, I tell you! :)

  5. RE: on Online Cigarette Customers Get Bill from State · · Score: 5, Interesting

    This seems dangerous to consumers. States can, at any time, subpoena Amazon.com and other online suppliers to regard tax revenue? What's the statue of limitations on this? Most states are hard up for tax dollars right now, and this could be one very scary way for states to generate revenue. Just a thought...

  6. RE: on What Do People in the IT Field Do for Side Jobs? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think I'm a full time tech support for my mom and all of her friends. It doesn't pay much, but it's better than working the poll!

  7. YES! on Should Star Trek Die? · · Score: 5, Funny

    If Star Trek would die, so would half of the conversations on Slashdot!

  8. RE: Nvidia on Official Doom 3 Benchmarks Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm just glad I won't have to go out and upgrade my video card for this game. Seems like every time there's a new game out, I'm upgrading.

    Oh, yeah, Linux is better than Windows... blah blah blah.

  9. Blamed for usage on Broadband Usage Up 42% In The U.S. In 2003 · · Score: 1

    Being that this is being discussed on slashdot, it should then be assumed that the RIAA blames the 42% increase on music piracy. :)

  10. Common sense on RIAA Forgets to Make Royalty Payments · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I don't understand why the government has not seen the RIAA as an orginization that doesn't adhear to the rules that it's set for everyone else. They have such deep pockets, they can make the effort to locate the artists and pay the royalties. Don't be surprised that this has happened. There's much more to come out of this...

  11. RE: ADD and caffeine on Best Way To Beat A Caffeine Addiction? · · Score: 1

    About a year ago, I decided to "officially" get diagnosed with ADD. My doctor asked me when I first noticed that I had a problem staying focused. I told him that I quit drinking coffee during the day. He told me that people with ADD usually find that they concentrate better when drinking coffee, because the caffeine keeps them "stimulated".

    If you're like me, you'll just end up replacing one stimulant for another. If you decide to "kick the habit", you might find out that there was a reason why that caffeine was so good!

  12. RE: on Boston's Big Dig Finally Open · · Score: 0, Redundant

    about time they open up this thing. They're billions of dollars over budget!

  13. RE: on TiVo Goes After Sites Hosting Image Backups · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Tivo's business model is upsetting everyone. Advertisers get commercials skipped, shows are getting ripped and download from the web... it doesn't surprise me that they're trying to keep their "source code" in house.

    If it wasn't for someone having their image of the OS out there, I wouldn't have been able to fix my Tivo Series 2 that's less that one year old!
