  1. Re:Temperature issues? on 12.8 Petabytes, You Say? · · Score: 1

    if exposed to too much heat it will sadly turn out to be vapor

  2. opinion vs fact on Wal-mart's Wikipedia War · · Score: 1

    perhaps wikipedia should try and distinguish between fact and opinion.

  3. Re:DIY on CableCARD In-Depth · · Score: 1
    I have the same complaints as you mention, the ability to customize the listings is very annoying and high on my list also. The unit is so bad (cablevision + Scientific Atlanta/Cisco) I wont even mention them, there is a cablevision-digital forum on Yahoo Groups for those that care. Missed recordings and absurd schedule functioning are described in detail there..

    Well good news is on the way, a Tivo (different from ReplayTV, but with similar high goodness count) with 2 CabeCARD slots is expected after mid 2006 (I use the optimist number)

    For now I hope that an HD recording is made, and thus I pay to get that picture quality, I backup the recording with my SD Tivo so I will get it for sure. The minute I can send it (and its cost) back to Cablevision it will be outta here.

  4. Re:Not Surprising on Canada's Do-Not-Hesitate-To-Call List · · Score: 1

    Same here, used to get 10 or 20 a day, now only 1 or 2 per week - I like making those people sweat a little.

  5. Re:unacceptable! on Australian Science Makes the Regenerating Mouse · · Score: 5, Funny

    The body piercing people are going to hate this.

  6. Titans will clash when on Businesses To Be Censored on Use of Olympics · · Score: 1

    Bill Gates releases Microsoft Windows 2012 Gold Editiob

  7. Pretty rude gesture to be making on OO.org Selects Its Own Sea Bird · · Score: 2, Informative
    I think some cultures may be offended by the sign the bird is flashing with its free wing. Ranks up there with the raised middle finger for some.

    Before you pick a logo, or mascot, it is wise to consult with experts. Just wait until the Germans get online in a few hours.
