  3. Re:They missed the obvious launch celebration on Google Rolling Out Live Streaming For YouTube · · Score: 1

    Even better: when you try to view the live Rick Astley stream, you get rickrolled with the original video version.

    Did The Onion buy out The Sun on april 1st?

    Everyone on the planet should switch to GPS + relative-to-oceans-altitude coordinates for addresses.

    Stop with your FSM propaganda, we all know the IPU is the only real deity!

    Since there was 228 people, that's 228 pairs, or 456 shoes. Unless you mean everyone only had one shoe.

  10. Re:Binoculars are so much cooler. on Man Creates "Creepy" Stalking App · · Score: 1

    Hidden cameras are better still. A nice clock makes a good present...

    Until a short, bald, slow-witted guy decides to steal it because he "lost" his fur hat in your apartment.

  11. Re:Improved tablets on MS Global Strategy Chief: Tablets Are a Fad · · Score: 2

    The Newton was ahead of its time, Palm missed the boat on the media integration and hardware upgrades.

    Microsoft missed the mark by so much because they tried to cram their desktop OS onto a tablet computer.

  12. Re:Improved tablets on MS Global Strategy Chief: Tablets Are a Fad · · Score: 1

    It's insightful not because of his "idea" but the fact that the patent on this idea would probably be accepted... and there's no "Sad Truth" moderation.

  13. Re:Future on Amazon's Cloud Player: We Don't Need a License · · Score: 1

    Netflix's business model is renting, not selling. I don't really care if there's DRM on rented media since it's watch once then delete it. Netflix's service is also available on a lot of platforms, that helps a lot. In fact, I think they're the most compatible video service on the market today.

  15. Re:At the risk of my nerd card... on Ask Slashdot: How/Where To Start Watching Dr. Who? · · Score: 1

    the movie version of "Starship Troopers" was much better than the book

    I liked it too. There's nothing like a good over-the-top military comedy that takes itself seriously and it has great special effects on top of that.

  16. Re:Dell Business Servers on 2011 MacBook Pros Confirmed To Crash Under Load · · Score: 1

    Might as well pull a number out of my ass for a budget proposal.

    Wasn't Bubble 2.0 in 2005? I thought this one was supposed to be called Cloud Bubble!

    You weren't alone, though I didn't have to read the title more than three... ok, maybe four times.

    Isn't that the job of newspapers?

    If a head start was so important, Microsoft would own the market by now.

  24. Re:Only needed one page on Hands-on Face-off: IPad 2 V Motorola Xoom · · Score: 1

    You have to divide 65000 apps by 1000 to arrive anywhere near the same numbers, and it's still nearly twice as many apps.

  25. Re:Not bad ! not bad !!! on Gameduino Project Aims To Game-ify the Arduino · · Score: 1

    I don't have a GMail account.

    Deleting both the YouTube and Google cookies worked. but their HTML5 playback in H.264 no longer works in Safari. Are they starting to sabotage H.264 support on YouTube to try and push WebM? Safari doesn't do WebM and I deleted Flash from my system. Vimeo works fine in HTML5, in fact better than YouTube (when it used to work, for the handful of videos that had HTML5 support to begin with).
