    facebook has comment threads, which sometimes even results in interesting conversations

  2. Re:No Kingpin?! on Spider-Man 3 Villains: Sandman & Venom · · Score: 1

    Dig a link further into Daredevil and read the triva, about halfway down the page they mention that because the characters were licensed by different movie studios the characters can't crossover.

  3. Re:Based off of firefox on Netscape 8.0 Released · · Score: 1

    What problems are you referring to with Wachovia? I've been using only FF or Konquorer at home for over a year and have not had a problem with their billpay. What am I missing out on?

    the standard sensors (as used in toll booths) require you to slow right down to register
    They're adding new toll plazas now where you don't have to slow down at all, in fact you don't drive through booths now its just a framework over the highway.

    That's Cyberlawyer, remember how Dr. Evil always wanted sharks with frickin laser beams

  9. Re:Read this if you've ever had a thought of your on Does Your Employer Own Your Thoughts? · · Score: 1

    I would have less problems with this as long as corporations are the only one paying taxes. Somehow I don't foresee that happening.

  10. Re:Good, I think on Microsoft Is Planning To Renew IE Development · · Score: 1

    I use Analog to check my logs. Even when Opera is identified as IE it still sends Opera in the user agent. Analog checks for this.

  12. Re:Fuel Taxes on Brew Your Own Auto Fuel For 41 Cents A Gallon · · Score: 1

    I believe the difference here is that the taxes on fuel are at least somewhat intended to pay for the roads you drive on. If I want to heat my home with fuel oil and choose to not drive, should I pay for roads from my heating bill?

  13. Re:ESPN.com works fine in Opera 7 on Opera Settles $12.75m Lawsuit, But with Whom? · · Score: 1

    Not true about ESPN, it works fine if you set your user agent string to MSIE6.0 (File->quick preferences), if you tell the site you're using Opera it renders differently. Go to the MLB scoreboard and see the difference.

    Unfortunately just the opposite would probably happen, look at the Book of Mormon. When life is found somewhere else, Jesus is going to have to save them too you know.

  19. Re:The phrase `Windows` wasn't coined thus null on Microsoft Forces wxWindows To Rename · · Score: 3, Informative

    I believe a better analogy would be Escalator. I know I was in my late teens before I knew that an Escalator was at one time a trademark and not a name for a class of transportation devices.

  20. F-word on The Simpsons Movie · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Ok, since the article says they plan to rip-off South Park BL&U, which Simpsons character will be the first to say the F-Word. Bart, Homer, and Crusty would be a bit too obvious. Personally I'd like to see how Flanders would deal with uttering the unholiest of all profanities.

  21. Re:So Just how screwed up are these companies?!?! on Toy Penguins and Male Egos Drove Linux Acceptance · · Score: 2, Informative
    "Use the damned software!". Really, I dont know why people seem to think they should have complete freedom on a computer at work. The company owns the machine, and the company chooses the software... so long as the company involved the proper employees in evaluating which is the best software(s) to use... thats it, end of story. Employees really shouldnt have a choice one way or another.

    To quote Mary Poppins "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down". People don't like change, if my boss told me that tomorrow we're going to start using black swingline staplers instead of the red one that I love then I would probably complain. I would complain less if the stapler replacement was given to me by an attractive brunette who bats her eyes. This company found a way to make a change without destroying overall morale, what's wrong with that?
  22. Re:No crashes here. Never! on Opera Browser Creators Planning IPO · · Score: 1

    I've been opera-centric for quite awhile now, so much so that I havn't seen the google toolbar. Pardon my ignorance, but does it do anything more than provide a quick search feature? I thought Opera had this built-in, plus you can use the same search box to search multiple search engines and in the page.

    Inconceivable!

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

  24. Re:learn from the movie Office Space on Switching from Comp. Sci. to EE? · · Score: 1

    My Father is a bricklayer, I worked with him during a couple of summer and winter breaks while I was in college. Quite frankly, even though I'm sure he would have liked me to follow in his footsteps, he's a little jelous that I work in a climate controlled environment. The saying among the bricklayers is that Februrary is the longest month of the year. Unless you have a job that can be closed off and heated its impossible to do your job because frozen mortar tends to not be structurally sound. During the rest of the year a rainy day will keep you at home, its like a snow day except bad because you have bills to pay. Toss in back-breaking work, corrupt unions, and Neandertal coworkers and it loses it appeal real quick.

    One recommedation though, become an electrician. Dad's sage advice; "Never piss off the electrician, you need him so your power tools work". If I was to work in construction, that is what I would do.

  25. Re:Too bad we can't support this company on One Company's Response to SCO · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not true! I consider it very nerdly to enjoy sports through the box scores. This summer I might just fire up Realplayer to stream out-of-market baseball games while wearing Just Sports apparel.
