  1. "... because everybody owns one" on Console Makers Worry Over Apple's Growing Competition · · Score: 1

    I don't have a cell phone, you insensitive clod!

  2. No background tasks? on iPhone's Development Limitations Could Hurt It In the Long Run · · Score: 2, Interesting

    How do they figure? I know when I'm running Apollo (AIM client) on my iPod Touch and switch over to Safari to browse, I'll get pop-ups from Apollo when people IM me. Not being a programmer, I gotta ask, doesn't that make Apollo (and it's appropriate daemon) a background task while I'm in Safari? Same thing with having music playing, with Apollo running, while using Safari. Seems to multitask alright to me. Not as friendly as true OS X but not bad for a device that weighs as little as my shoes at 4.2 ounces.

  3. Re:zune vs IPOD on Next Generation Zune Coming for Holiday Season · · Score: 1

    Microsoft kicks back a small amount to Universal Music [cnn.com] for every Zune sold. Microsoft sold a Zune?

  4. Firefox 2.0 is soooooooo fast... on Firefox 2.0 Posted a Day Early · · Score: 4, Funny

    It beat itself to the internet!

  5. I spent an hour staring at it... on Decrypting Kryptos · · Score: 1

    Then realized I have no chance of solving it, and went back to eating my sandwich.

    One amusing thing to note though, is that someone had thrown rubber duckies in the little pool next to it!

  6. And I still don't have a cell phone. on Sprint Close to Buying Nextel · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    And I don't want one.

  7. Re:Already popular on Smart Cars Coming to Canada and U.S. · · Score: 1

    I've seen a bunch of the roadsters around, but no forfour or fortwo SMART cars. I saw a Brabus Roadster dressed up in Ferrari emblems.

  8. Re:Already popular on Smart Cars Coming to Canada and U.S. · · Score: 2, Interesting

    On a serious note, the SMART cars have been in the US for some time now. I used to see them in Florida on a regular basis before moving.

  9. Re:Mouse wheel? on The Secret Behind the iPod Scroll Wheel · · Score: 1

    I'm using one right now you insensitive clod. Kensington.com

  10. Why is this news? on Time-Shifting For The iPod · · Score: 1

    Seriously. I've been ripping streams with StreamRipper for 2-3 years now. How is this any different?

  11. Re:Recording mp3 streams -- Streamripper on RIAA Protests Digital Radio · · Score: 1

    I walk off the foot of my bed, just so I can never get out on the wrong side. I'm not sure which side is right, so I'm pretty safe doing it that way, besides the pile of laundry at the end.

    This post was made completely at random...

  12. Re:Terrible Sonic Quality on RIAA Protests Digital Radio · · Score: 1

    What causes this on Reborn is the fact that they're using MP3's ripped off a webradio stream, that are being recompressed to be sent through another webradio stream.

    Generation loss is a bitch. Imagine copying a tape, then making a copy of the copy... etc... works with a Xerox machine too. Go try it.

    The original had EXCELLENT quality, but it was hard to duplicate for the Reborn stream I guess.

  13. Re:Recording mp3 streams -- Streamripper on RIAA Protests Digital Radio · · Score: 1

    Did you miss my reply? I provided the admin with a ton of those MP3's. I have about 1300 Massinova MP3's total.

  14. Re:Massinova on RIAA Protests Digital Radio · · Score: 1

    I'm well aware of Reborn. Most of the MP3's on there were provided by me.

  15. Massinova on RIAA Protests Digital Radio · · Score: 5, Informative

    Does anyone still remember Massinova? They offered near CD quality streams, a great request system, etc etc...

    And to thank them for their efforts, the RIAA sued and screwed em, and now that great Trance stream is no more.

    Long live Massinova.

  16. Re:*yawn* Oooooold "news" on The Bugatti Veyron · · Score: 1

    They'll sell at least one.

    You think Jay Leno could pass this bastard up?

  17. Re:For the millionth bloody time. on OO.org Selects Its Own Sea Bird · · Score: 1

    Hey retard. Turn on the subtitles, and you'll see "MINE!" appear every time they talk.

    The pelicans are the ones with the Aussie accents, and they only say "Mate" once or twice.

  18. Re:Created in 6 months... on NYT on Apple's Digital Way of Life · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Open one up and look at the quality inside. Even the parts no one is ever supposed to see are superbly designed. It's the attention to detail that makes the 6 month turnaround so cool.

    And the 3rd generation iPods are even better. I can only imagine what's next. Bring it on.

  19. First the seagull mascot... on OO.org Selects Its Own Sea Bird · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...then the new company motto:

  20. Re:Wrong place. on Video Projector for Home Theater? · · Score: 1

    I'm using a $6k Hitachi as my daily TV and home entertainment. Been doing so for years now. My house is the party pad having a 120" screen and full surround sound.

    Beware, it's hard to get people to leave your house once they see your TV.

    Mine is aptly named "Mr. Wall"

  21. Re:What's really amusing... on HDD Assault Cannon · · Score: 2, Informative

    Probably because it was /.'d before anyone actually saw it!!!

  22. Re:This is Science? on Save a Chatlog... Go to Prison? · · Score: 1

    And if I change my post, your sig still refers to Zelda.

    And thanks to that, I'm going to spend the evening replaying Zelda 2.

    I am Error.

    Well, I am PrintError. Pleased to meet you.

  24. Re:Next thing you know.... on Are Computers Ready to Create Mathematical Proofs? · · Score: 1

    Will that replace the one they have that automatically double posts articles once a month?
