  1. Re:They learned a lot from Deus Ex 2 on Deus Ex 3 Announced · · Score: 1

    I need to try it again on my 8800GTS to see if their 'dynamic performance reduction' technology still works. In my experience you couldn't get it to run smoothly on *anything*, except maybe an XBox.

  2. Re:Most of the power? on Football Field-Sized Kite Powers Latest Freighter · · Score: 1

    Not just you; I imagined some sort of 2-3x cargo-container-sized box for closed-cycle, hydroponic weed production.

  3. Re:reverse psychology on Students In UK Tracked With RFID Chips · · Score: 1

    Might want to cut down on the Sex Panther. Looks like it's starting to affect your brainulation.

  4. Re:sounds like it will be a really hot technology on New Hydrogen Engine Test Shows Future of Aviation · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, the alternative was Sex Panther but that was rejected for obvious flammability and sexiness reasons.

    They should have used Bittorrent. Somehow.

  6. Re:Ubuntu Server needs work. on Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" Is Out · · Score: 2, Informative

    Isn't this what eBox is supposed to do? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBox

    I'll bite your knees off!

  8. Re:48 GB = 384Gb on Hynix 48-GB Flash MCP · · Score: 2, Funny

    I for one welcome our able-to-max-out-SATA NAND flash overlords.

  9. Windows XP SP3 on Vista SP1 Coming In Q1 2008 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Dammit, screw Vista, where's my SP3 for Windows XP?

  10. Re:confused.... on MythTV Scheduling Service Reveals Pricing · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Wait, what? I thought the advertisers were the television networks' customers.

  11. Re:Dolphin on KDE 4.0 Beta 1 Released · · Score: 1

    Give me real filesystem extensions that work in *all* applications, not just KDE apps.

  12. Rod Logic... on The Nanomechanical Computer · · Score: 1

    anyone?

  13. Re:All heat sink related? Probably not. on The Man Who Went Through 11 Xbox 360s · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Damn, wish I had modpoints on this story.

  14. Re:How hard can it be? on Vista an Uneasy Sleeper · · Score: 1

    Assuming they didn't have any external state, like active network connections. Then again the OS can just disconnect the sockets on the next send/recv and hope the app handles that gracefully.

  15. Re:Massage? on Stolen Cell Phone Shares Thieves' Photos? · · Score: 4, Funny

    I hope they're using the Linux massage API and not trying to tickle the ioctls themselves...

  16. Massage? on Stolen Cell Phone Shares Thieves' Photos? · · Score: 1

    "Flickr is having a massage." The hell?

  17. Re:Import games? Homebrew? on MS Employees Debate Mod Chips · · Score: 1

    It's the human optimizing verbal compiler!

    False positives?

  19. Archaeological... on Archaeological Uncovers a New Name · · Score: 2, Funny

    *dig*, perhaps? On ./ no one can hear you utilize strange grammar!

  20. Software Mixing... on Linux Audio Conference 2005 · · Score: 1

    Maybe, just maybe, they can get software mixing to work not only for ALSA apps, but for the OSS subsystem too!

  21. Re:first on BitTorrent Community After SuprNova Shutdown · · Score: 1

    Significant non-infrigning uses?

    Double standards?

    Hypocritical leeches?
