  1. Re:Privelege on Photographing Police: Deletion Is Not Forever · · Score: 1

    I asked a cop once. It means "Up yours, kid"

  2. Re:religion on Cringely's Lost Jobs Interview: Coming To a Theater Near You · · Score: 1

    Steve Jobs appeared to me in a dream and told me where to find 3 gold tablets he had buried.

  3. Can I get the icon in cornflower blue? on 'I Just Need a Programmer' · · Score: 1

    Absolutely! Efficiency is priority number 1.

  4. You can never stop Pusher Bot on Researchers Cripple Pushdo Botnet · · Score: 1

    PAK CHOOIE

  5. Who is The Drizzle? on Drizzle's Future Moving To Rackspace? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    A dark band. Dark like the cloud of justice. A band with the power to control the weather... and has laser feet. That's cool, right?

  6. I'm still waiting on Danish FreeBSD Dev. Sues Lenovo Over "Microsoft Tax" · · Score: 2, Interesting

    for Apple to offer a refund for the copy of OS X sold with their hardware. I'd rather use FreeBSD.

  7. Re:Story link? on Murdoch Demands Kindle Users' Info · · Score: 5, Informative

    Here's one.
    Would have been helpful to include in the original article.

  8. Zune Marketplace not Zune device on Kindle, Zune DRM Restrictions Coming Into Focus · · Score: 2, Interesting

    is the problem in this case. The device is not without flaws, but it seems unfair to blame the device for a flaw with the app store (I'd criticize it more for not being able to handle naturally occurring dates). The majority of users won't use their player for DRM protected content although they should clearly have the ability to do so without worrying about this scenario. Pathetic doesn't even begin to describe these types of restrictions.

  9. Re:How little progress we are making on AMD Overclocks New Phenom II X4 To 7 GHz · · Score: 1

    Wrong! I can't believe you actually believe this. If you were given the choice between an identically clocked i7 (even with all but one core turned off) or a Pentium 4, only a complete fool would take the P4. In fact you have it completely backwards since most advances over the last decade are related to extra cores, and improvements in performance per clock.

  10. Possible workaround on DRM Shuts Down PC Version of Gears of War · · Score: 1

    A possible workaround for now might be using the RunAsDate utility from Nirsoft.

  11. Re:Will NullSoft honor... on Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5! · · Score: 1

    Took all of 30 seconds to find a working keygen. Free for me anyway :) It would be nice if they honered the original contract, but If you really feel slighted you don't have to pay.

  12. 1st season was good on Farscape is Back · · Score: 1

    I absolutely loved the first season, watched the whole thing back when it was new, but I felt that the quality of episodes after season one consistantly declined. Action became very sketchy and plot was too contrived and predictable. Wish they could have continued with the quality of that fist season though, that was golden.
