  1. Re:Missing small points on Microsoft to Storm Linux Strongholds · · Score: 1

    and by "legend" you mean "story meant to inspire but probably not true"

  2. Re:Plays music well? on Video iPod Screen Test · · Score: 1

    I guess if space is no issue, playing uncompressed wav would be much higher quality...also, ditch the buds and get real headphones.

    the ipod is overrated anyway. i just want vorbis and flac support.

  3. Re:Disbarrment on Jack Thompson Calls Cops on Penny-Arcade · · Score: 1

    i don't think any university teaches "game programming". They teach Computer science, with which you can pretty much program, but a major like "Game Programming" would come from a tech school...

  4. Re:The Anagram is.... on BBC Announces Adult Doctor Who Spin-Off · · Score: 2, Funny

    Why is there no "-1, Stupid"?

  5. Re:Does the DS even have a web browser? on Nintendo & McDonalds Providing WiFi · · Score: 1

    The DS has no web browser, this is only for over-the-internet multiplayer.

  6. Re:VLC on Media Players for Windows Without DRM? · · Score: 2, Informative

    The best part is it comes with most codecs built in... installing codecs on most players is such a pain in the ass!

  7. Re:The iPod is a music player *first* on Video iPod Apple's First Bad Move? · · Score: 1

    lotta coffee shops up there...

  8. Re:Missed the Point on Video iPod Apple's First Bad Move? · · Score: 1

    Hey, at least now they've lost their "not enough horsepower" excuse...if the thing does video, it has the juice to run the tremor codec, am i right?

  9. Re:But which will be first to... on AbiWord beats OpenOffice to a Grammar Checker · · Score: 1

    I actually like OOo's equation editor. If you don't worry about the stupid selection window and learn their markup, it's quite speedy. //I actually would like to get around to learning TeX one of these days...

  10. Re:Alternative on Should RISC OS be Open Sourced? · · Score: 1

    you mean "damn"?

  11. Re:!Boot !System !Scrap on Should RISC OS be Open Sourced? · · Score: 1

    The multitasking in the 95/98/ME line was a complete joke. Real multitasking was only ever in the NT/2000/XP line.

  12. Re:Out of curiosity... on 20 Lawmakers Want to Kill Your Television · · Score: 1

    or maybe '[RM][IP]AA' would be a little more precise

  13. Re:My reasons on Why Do You Block Ads? · · Score: 1

    Exactly...i visit IGN all the time, and i never knew that thanks to adblock...

  14. Re:The beginning of the end on RIAA Goes After Satellite Radio · · Score: 1

    Buying CDs is STILL the only way to get high quality uncompressed music legally, and on a physical media none the less.

  15. Re:Everybody knows what mod chips are for on PS2 Mod Chips Legal In Australia · · Score: 1

    It's 2005. The P3/700 was already obselete 2 years ago...you probably coulda ebayed one almost as cheap as the XBOX

  16. Re:You're right, and it's a good licence on The GPL Impedes Linux More Than It Helps? · · Score: 1

    No X sounds like a plan, as X is probably the biggest fault in linux, and should be replaced...but that's a flamewar for another day...

  17. Re:I'd take a backup of my backup. on Condensing Your Life on to a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    Actually, i have a dell-branded one that did the same thing. and here i thought they were shitty...

  18. Re:same old on Office 12 to Include Native PDF Support · · Score: 1

    The PDF specification doesn't really allow for editable documents other than fill in forms, IIRC. no client completely supports that.

  19. Re:This fight just ends up being bad for us on Blu-Ray Attacks Microsoft, Microsoft Bites Back · · Score: 1

    Or wait it out and let's the idiots ride front...

  20. Re:Huh?! on Apple to Replace Faulty Nano Screen · · Score: 1

    Seconded.

  21. Re:Huh?! on Apple to Replace Faulty Nano Screen · · Score: 1

    Yea, but a closed clamshell phone seems more protected than a soapbar with an exposed screen and buttons...

  22. Re:SIX Days!? on Kirby, Meteos Designer Creates Indie Studio · · Score: 1

    They said that was before they even saw (or chose) the hardware...which leads me to believe that the design documentation took 6 days, not the whole game.

  23. Offtopic on The King of the Mushroom Kingdom · · Score: 3, Funny

    Can a summary be modded offtopic?

  24. Re:Sound a little fishy to me. on Armed Dolphins Released Into Gulf of Mexico · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I think we shouldn't be moderating anyone funny until they fix the very broken moderation system...

  25. Re:Why can't Appleites hold Apple to a high standa on iPod nano Owners In Screen Scratch Trauma · · Score: 1

    Yea, and without edges they are really hard to pick up!
