  1. Re:yes, but... on All-New PowerBooks, Web Browser Featured at Macworld · · Score: 2

    Come on, now. Can we all agree that all browsers pretty much copy every other browser? There are features that appear in one browser, and are quickly "copied" by every other browser. It's not like new browsers are created in a clean-room with no influence from other projects.

    Besides, everybody "copied" mosaic in the first place. :)

  2. Re:I hope it's not too good of a copy! on XPde: Cloning the XP Interface · · Score: 2

    AHH! Funny! "bluescreen"! I get it!

    Fucking dumbass.

  3. Re:I knew the following before taking any CS cours on The Vanishing HailStorm · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Do you really think that many people use a different username and password for every login they have?

    No, but at least now, if I find one username/password combination, i don't necessarily know where else i can try that combination. But if I find out your hotmail password, then I immediately know that I can also jack your ebay account, your MSN account, etc.

  4. Re:Google -- NYTimes -- Google on Googling For Dates? · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    What I want to know is, do we still need the "Free Reg, bla bla" reminder everytime an NYT article is posted? Don't we all get it by now?

  5. Re:Nokia's Communicator has RealPlayer on QuickTime On Your Cell Phone · · Score: 4, Funny

    Amen, brother. You got to click through about a hundred dialogs just to disable the damn StartCenter or whatever the fuck their stupid resource-hogging tray icon shit is called.

    And they do things like "Are you sure you don't NOT want to NOT DISable StartCenter?" to confuse the pants off you, so that you accidentally click yes instead of no. Disgusting, really.

  6. Re:Highly Polished on New Mad Max Film · · Score: 2

    *cringe*

    And thank you very much for putting me through that again.

  7. Re:If SourceForge wants to make money... on Compile Farms for Commercial Software? · · Score: 4, Funny

    making.....? money..... ?? VA!???

    are you visiting from some parallel universe?

  8. Re:pay someone to do it on Do You Homebrew? · · Score: 3, Funny

    we brew every weekend 10 litres, enough for a week. it gets better and better.

    Or could it be that you're just getting used to the (bad) taste? It wouldn't be unheard of...

  9. Re:Jumped the Shark on Review: Solaris · · Score: 3, Funny

    God I'm sick of that phrase.

    So what you're saying is, "Jumped the Shark" has itself Jumped the Shark?

    Said article.

  11. Radio Shack is a relic from the eighties... on RadioShack Stops Being Nosy · · Score: 2

    I honestly don't know how Radio Crap is in business to begin with. I cant imagine anyone buying anything expensive from there, like stereo's, computers or TV's; thats what Best Buy, Fry's or in desperation, Wal-mart is for.

    Do that many people need solder and LED's to keep them in business?

  12. Re:Old news on GCC 3.2.1 Released · · Score: 2

    So are gentoo users the new version of debian users, with s/apt-get bla bla/emerge bla bla/ ?

  13. Re:Metroid Prime on Gamecube Finally Plays GBA Games · · Score: 2

    I just peeled myself away from the game so I can get some homework done... I think I might have to drop out of school this quarter. The game is unbelievable.

    A 3D metroid had all the markings of a poor crossover. However just like Mario and Zelda, Nintendo (& Retro) have shown they know exactly how to cross the 2D/3D barrier without taking away the essence of a classic game.

  14. Sure... on Two Black Holes to Merge · · Score: 5, Funny

    They might *think* they're doing the right thing, but they're young now. Let's just hope they sign a pre-nup.

    Never seen goatse.cx link... must resist... mouse moving by itself... nooooo....

  16. Re:this will be great.. on Global Warming will Open Northwest Passage · · Score: 2

    I really wonder about this... just how much water is in the ice caps? When you compare them to the surface area of the world's oceans, it doesnt seem like it could be *that* much water.

    I'm pulling this directly from my ass though, so does anyone have any hard numbers?

  17. Re:Rubbish on My Compost Bin And I · · Score: 2

    You're not missing much.

  18. Re:The attitude! on EMI Customer Relations Tells It Like It Is · · Score: 2

    If BMI adopts a "your concerns are worth sh~t to us" attitude and just tells people to accept inferior products, they will get a large public backlash.

    Oh, ya definitely. I'm sure every dumb ass braindead teenager, buying every CD Carson Daily/MTV pushes, is just dying to become a social subversive. You bet.

  19. Oh, sure. on NASA Cancels Moon Hoax Book · · Score: 2

    No doubt the cancellation of this book will be listed as further "evidence" that the landings were fake.

    That's what they want you to think!

  21. Re:Just one thing on Microsoft takes on PDF · · Score: 2

    Oh, come on. Get realistic. We've all seen how Microsoft shoe-horns their products onto the desktops of millions. With IE during the browser war, and most recently with the hard to remove, hard to hide MSN messenger tray applet in XP.

    Have no doubt in your mind that the "Print to XDoc" feature will be more prominantly displayed, more intrusive, and difficult if not impossible to get rid of.

  22. Get one of these on Building a Personal Clean Room? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Swiffer. I used one in my bathroom today, really a cool product. Picked up everything.
