  1. Re:But on Lawmaker Reintroduces WikiLeaks Prosecution Bill · · Score: 1

    I doubt they even appropriated any money for a Helicarrier! Half-baked congressional legislation as always.

  2. Re:Oh god.. on Students Show a Dramatic Drop In Empathy · · Score: 1

    Hell you weren't joking, this is actually one of the questions: 'To what extent does the following statement describe you: "I am an empathetic person."'

  3. Re:What? on Matching Up Hotkeys for OS X and Linux GUIs? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I'm looking at that right now and there aren't options for changing: copy, cut, paste, select all, which are the sorts of things I think he wants to change.

  4. Re:Firefox has the wrong focus on Places Feature Cut From Firefox 2 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Doesn't the fact that "Places" was delayed show that they _are_ focused on polish?

  5. Re:Sizes - Memory, Download on Google Hiring Programmers to Work on OpenOffice · · Score: 2, Funny

    Both Open Office and Firefox were origonally propitary software. I bet that some of the bloat came from those days.

  6. Christmas on Sony May Delay PS3 Until 2007 · · Score: 1

    I really doubt that Sony would wait until after Christmas 2006 to release the PS3. I could understand some delay if the XBox 360 were floundering, but I bet we'll see the PS3 sometime next year, possibly delayed until summer or fall.

  7. DRM on Jon Johansen Breaks iTunes DRM Yet Again · · Score: 1

    This just shows that no form of DRM, CSS, or any other content "protection" will _ever_ work in the long run.

  8. Re:Business as usual on Anti-P2P Law Looms over the Horizon · · Score: 1

    Your argument would work, if the government actually paid attention to The Constitution.

  9. Re:Freeloaders on Downhillbattle.org Bounty For P2P Gaim Plug-in · · Score: 1

    How could you borrow the CD if your friend downloaded it? Or if that person lives on the other side of the country? A goal of this project is to make things easier.

  10. Re:This proposal is based on a bad assumption... on Downhillbattle.org Bounty For P2P Gaim Plug-in · · Score: 1

    I would trust everyone on my buddy list, and everyone on their buddy lists, but eventually someone will be working for the RIAA. At that point, as far as I can see, this is no better than normal P2P.

  11. Re:How far would they go? on Savebetamax.org National Call-in Day · · Score: 1

    Someone will try to sue the makers and users of all of those devices. That is the problem with a broadly worded act. Someone will abuse it no matter what the "intent" was.

  12. Re:partial transcript on Star Wars TV Show, And An Unmade Trilogy · · Score: 1

    It seems to me that the first trilogy has failed to be dark or serious.

  13. Re:I'm not into FPS games anymore... on NovodeX Physics Engine SDK/Demo Released · · Score: 1

    I would pay any sum of money for a giant Jenga tower.

  14. Re:Hysteria on Browser Wars Mark II · · Score: 1

    Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate (hopefully) leads to suffering.

  15. Re:If I remember my Nintendo Power correctly. on John Woo & Metroid the Movie? · · Score: 1

    As I recall, she was the sole survivor of a Space Pirate attack on the colony she lived in. This could be told in a flashback without revealing that Samus is female.

  16. Re:Linux on an iPod? on Linux for iPod Matures · · Score: 1

    KDE? I run XFce on my iPod.
