  1. Venom on Spider-Man 3 Villains: Sandman & Venom · · Score: 1

    Venom is not suppose to be there.
    Peter Parker nneds to find the costume first in that other dimension,,use it at least a couple of movies before figuring that the sentient being is trying to control him and getting help from Richard reed to get rid of it,,,then it finds another host.

    Guest they think people are dumb

  2. Wrong on Ladies and Gentlemen Allow Me to Introduce the Cat Car · · Score: 2, Informative

    IT reads that the guy denied using cats but uses trash, plactics and other waste product,,no way it said cats,,it was a rumor.

    We are more close to Back to the future than we think.
    I have enough baby diaper full of crap to power a shuttle

  3. Re:Corporate Logos on US Companies Sponsor Pro Gamers · · Score: 1

    Well
      At least the gamer will finally get dome real money.

    But cigarettes and alcohol will probaly have a hard time getting in there since it's prohibited to sell to people under the age of 18 and not all pro gamers are over that age limit.

  4. Networrk card on Intel Enters Anti-Virus Market · · Score: 1

    They should focus on creating a network card with anti-virus and firewall already integrated in it so everything that comes from outside is automatically screened and cleaned.

    Hell cd-rom, floppy drives and all port entry on a computer should have somwehere where every piece of data is scan before even getting on your hard disk or memory.

  5. BS on Is the iPod Generation Going Deaf? · · Score: 1

    Why is this put on IPOD! headphones are headphones no matter what the player is.

    Ipod is probably no more loud than any other player.It's the headphones thet usually make the difference.

  6. do you do network on What's On Your Tech Bench? · · Score: 2

    -One 8 port switch or router so you either update your pc there or configure small network if it applies.
    -screw containers
    -tool rack for screwdriver (damn compaq)
    -tie-raps by the thousand
    -cofee was previously mentioned
    -two or more power bars with wires already there so you dont always ahve to unwrap them from the new cases.
    -wheels on your workbench with a removable power source so your not limited to that work area.
    -One weird toy to say "hey it's my workplace"
    -One list of thing you dont do
    -Another list for things you do only if a 20$ bill accidentally fall into the specially designed drop box on the side of your workbench.

  7. Re:Global Impact on Controlling Hurricanes? · · Score: 1

    Now imagine being able to controll weather and create rain where it doesnt rain?
    No more dry seasons,, crops always good,,food for everyone.
    But of course this weather system would not be in the hand of the u.s. since they would sell to the richest country and thus rule the earth (yikes)

    Linus torvald should have it so it's free for everyone.

  8. Re:Joke? on The Six Dumbest Ideas in Computer Security · · Score: 1

    That would be great if this model was applied to Windows. There are far too many different accounts in windows anyways.
    Print operators? yes sure we have someone JUST for That.
    Power user? Yes he's the boss so power user for him, less security for the network.

    User should not have any right to install software, unfortunately in windows,,,some applications need admin rights in order to work that is the Major flaw. It seem to me that if the software is installed it should have automatic admin privileg to work, whitout a complete lockdown of the computer when in restricted mode.

  9. Watch out!! on New Twist on Power Walking · · Score: 1

    what the article doesnt tell is that all subject died of dehydration because they had to walk 3 hours with the 38 kg backpack in order to listen to their 300 mp3 songs.

    Imagine powering a blackerry now! imagine the death toll of vp's around the world :(

  10. WHO CARES on Katrina Delays Shuttle · · Score: 0, Troll

  11. Will Make Kids Creative on Berners-Lee Says Internet Will Make Kids Creative · · Score: 1

    OH Yeah! they already know about doggystyle! facial ,hentai,bukake,threesome, backdoor lover...that's creative enough.

    I ask, what more can the internet stimulate in our kids?

  12. Used to be cool software on TB-303 Give-Aways from Propellerheads and d-lusion · · Score: 1

    Rebirth used to be a cool software when it was not popular 10 years ago! when the rave scene wasnt so big aNd commercial! Now it's just another software! was fun but soon discovered that it didnt take much brains to create acid music so now i listen to more intelligent electro.

  13. Re:multiplayer? on Review: Dungeon Siege II · · Score: 1

    is this a real question?

    The question today is: Is there a game you cant play on-line ?

    probably 90% of games are made to play on-line (unfortunately).

  14. Re:OS X is a terrible interface in my experience on Five Reasons Not to Use Linux · · Score: 1

    I can sum up!

    OS x is like british cars, it's all in reverse and made for lefty ;)

    and you need to lose some fingers or you might hurt yourself using the one button mouse.

    Imagine having ONE strong finger on one of your hand, pretty creepy.

  15. Re:firecow on Firefox Gains on IE Again in June · · Score: 1

    Firefly is a bug that light up at night.
    Firefox is just simple cruelty on the fox population.

  16. Re:First Post Mind Trick on Tatooine-like Planet Discovered · · Score: 1

    Maybe there's some spice there?

    I just can see it now in my mind!

  17. Sometimes ms sucks on Longhorn to Require Monitor-Based DRM · · Score: 1

    Doesnt this go against liberty of choice or somehting!
    I mean whatever i want to load on my Windows is my choice and i should be able to run it at the resolution i want without some company telling me i cant run this a hign res because it may damage something.
    If i want to destroy my computer it's my choice!

  18. Re:Just confirms on Microsoft's 10-year-old Certified Professional · · Score: 1

    well studying all those cram exam is pretty hard ;)

  19. Re:who's electrolysing water? on New Way to Make Hydrogen · · Score: 1

    maybe but is it clean? or just another deadly things that we'll transform and shoot in the air?

  20. Re:RIAA's response.. on Legal Music Downloads Increase in 2005 · · Score: 1

    And what's even funnier is that these industries make a lot more money selling music on the net than actually you buying a cd in a store.
    They dont have to print labels or booklets and spend on cd, you do it for them!
    And what's worse is i'm pretty sure the quality isnt equal to the ones you get in the store.

    So the trend of downloading illegaly music from the net is now getting legal as people pay now for their downloads, so the industry has nothing to bitch or cry about losing money since they probably get 100% benefit from providing music on the net.

  21. Re:who's electrolysing water? on New Way to Make Hydrogen · · Score: 1

    This is like any big industries!
    cigarettes, weapons etc..etc.. the bigger they are the more they influence goverment policies.
    But fossil fuels is getting scarce so i dont think it's going to be very long before they use another type of fuel!

  22. Iiiichh on How to Build a 17-ft Wind Turbine · · Score: 2, Funny

    My landlord had a stroke when i installed a dish, i imagine he'll implode with that 17 feet fan.

  23. Re:Not gone... on The End of a Floppy Era · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Floppy will be around for a while.

    For my part i will never order computers without or even server as a matter of fact without them, unless they stop making the hardware.

    A floppy is useless for the regular home user since he burns is data on cd on put it on a usb stick but for troubleshooting, it's always good to have a floppy handy.

  24. Re:Disappointed on The Floating PowerBook · · Score: 1

    Actually, a couple of years ago i saw a show on t.v. that were showing laptops and one of them was waterproof, they didnt put it in water but used cofee spill and other liquids on the keyboard to show how resistant it was.
    But is cost 5k, so for now leave the laptop by the side of the pool (without the power supply).

  25. Re:Choices on Improving Education? · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately i think it's a wrong way to get kids to enjoy school.

    All those interest are good but not for a 7 year old who needs basic skills.
    Music or art wont prepare him for a work place and or life in the real world.An illeterate musician or artist is pretty lame, it must be there but not as an alternative way to make the kid learn something.
    I agree that kids need more sport, this has been proven in study that a healthy kid is a kid that will probably do better in class.
    Parents arent involved enough,if parents arent interested in learning, what do you think your kids will do?
    It's not just the job of the teacher to make learning fun, it starts at home.
    Teachers arent all GOOD TEACHER, i think they need more than knowledge to actually do their jobs. The environment must be set so the youg ones like what they are learning, give them tricks to learn the basics, teachers rely too much on what's written in the books and it seems to me they forget that the kids (even adult) learn by experience and exemple and not just what the theory tells.
    They need to apply what they are learning so they see that, math is a necessity , so is grammar.

    Maybe we need to put them in a work environment sooner like apprentice to a trade.
    We need to show them why! and words arent enough.
