  1. Re:Feedback on Zelda on the Wii To Include Sword Swinging · · Score: 1

    Because it vibrates. That's how you know you hit.
      Not to mention it also has a speaker on the controller which I assume will provide feedback sounds.

  2. Here it comes on 100 Million Pixels of Virtual Reality · · Score: 1

    Let the porn jokes cue in...

  3. Re:No surprise. on Apple vs Bloggers · · Score: 3, Funny
    ÜberBook iPro
    damn... even that sounds better than MacBook Pro.
  4. Amazing... on The Real Purpose of DRM · · Score: 1

    Simply amazing, all +5 comments are about this 'IT Woman' thing. Not even one +5 comment about the frikkin article!

    Seriously guys, you are screwed up.

  5. Yeah right... on Theaters Unhappy About Faster DVD Releases · · Score: 1

    If it is such a 'fuller, more entertaining experience' then what's the problem?

    That means that people would go the theater instead of buying the movie or both.

    They are not even coherent with themselves.

  6. Spell HEMI on Quad PCIe Motherboard · · Score: 0, Troll

    Sheesh, talk about compensating for the lack of something else...

  7. Re:I know I'm not the only one by far... on Designer Mice Made to Order · · Score: 1
    Bullshit. And fuck you for saying so.[...]
    Good to know that some people are actually evolving.
    I completely agree with you. Something that from any logical and moral point to view escapes so easily the common sense of the majority of the population really reflects the primitive state of humanity.

    As we see slavery today we might see animal cruelty in (maybe) a couple hundred years.
  8. Re:Big Brother means cheaper big hard drives... on UK Government Wins Villain of the Year · · Score: 1

    That would be an impressive moronic comment.
    Who in their right mind compares hd prices with the price of freedom and privacy.
    So you think is cool to have "$50 USD per terabyte" ?
    You certainly have been living in comfort for too long, and deserve what's coming your way.

    thanks for the link

  10. Re:Aside from free speech type issues... on Students Banned from Blogging · · Score: 1

    Actually I would rather suggest that every kid (or just one cad do it) do this for every other kid on school. Multiple times. Their stupid repression system will collapse on itself

  11. Found guilty = get more money!!! on Microsoft's European License Dissected · · Score: 3, Interesting

    MS lawyers have to be the nectar of law schools dude. Either I'm not understanding this thing or this utter BS. I think this is the first time in my lifetime that I've seen a result like this :

    "And now it's looking to make more money for breaking the law? So surely Microsoft must be flush enough to give the open-source guys a break? Do they have to pay royalties too?
    No."

    Can I get sued like that so I can become rich too?

    "Microsoft has proposed a royalty fee of 5 percent of your company's net revenue obtained from a software product that has used Microsoft's file and print protocols, and 2.5 percent if the protocols are used for an embedded product."

    WOW just wow...

  12. Another name for... on Microsoft Releases Malicious Software Removal Tool · · Score: 1

    Antivirus?

    Is Microsoft trying to slip an antivirus under the name of "Malicious Software Removal Tool" or is it just me?

    The solution to antitrust?

  13. Re:Hey! How about a server? on Rehabilitating Damaged Laptops · · Score: 1

    What it is really funny, and I'm not making this up:

    I have a UT2004 server for LAN parties that can hold up to 4 players running on a Pentium 100MHZ !!!! It has 86 megs of ram and a hard drive of 3 gigs. I can prove it in any way you want.

    Of course it's running on Suse linux.

    I can only imagine what can be done with a laptop.

  14. Re:this isn't an offence to us but a feature on Longhorn Will Have Ability to Ban External Storage Devices · · Score: 2, Informative

    and in Linux nothing stops you from doing something even smarter. Make the portable storage read-only so people can listen to their mp3's if they so desire but cannot copy sensitive information to their devices.

    I believe the /etc/fstab entry would be something like this : /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb1 auto noauto,user,ro 0 0


    you forgot the 'noexec' to protect from binaries: /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb1 auto noauto,user, noexec ro 0 0

  15. for "very wet conditions" on Modding Game Controllers For Greater Grip · · Score: 1

    "For example if you want rougher surface and extra grip for very wet conditions. First break the untreated surface with a low grit sandpaper or mix rough sand with the Plasti Dip."

    Ouch!!!

    Seriously, who is playing in the pool?

  18. Re:The Truth is so much cooler than Fiction on Dinosaurs Died Within Hours of Asteroid Impact, says New Study · · Score: 1

    "The majority of humanity were instantly fried, like in a nuke blast that wrapped around the globe. I haven't seen a movie lately, that had those kind of cool FX. How about you?

    Think about to all the meteor's crashing into earth movies there are, now think about all the FX. Nothing as impressive as ALL THOSE HUMANS getting fried as a heat wave travelled around the globe."

    Whatever the last 2 paragraphs make you feel for me is neither good or bad.

  20. Re:neh, Fry's on Worst Explanation From Tech Support? · · Score: 1

    Even though he should know more about his job, at least he was honest. Also he didn't say anything stupid to look smart which could get an innocent costumer into serious troubles.

  21. If this software is so good on Indiana First With Computerized Grading · · Score: 1

    How come we haven't seen wordprocessors with grammatical and logical "checkers" ?

    The ones that try to catch grammatical errors are sucessful 1/3 of the time.

    Not to talk about the coherence error correction on an essay.

    But since helix is 100% open source, how can it have spyware??

  23. Interesting quote on Microsoft WiX Code Released to SourceForge.Net · · Score: 3, Informative
    I found interesting this explanation from the blog
    • http://blogs.msdn.com/robmen
    First, working on WiX has never been a part of my job description or review goals. I work on the project in my free time. Second, WiX is a very developer oriented project and thus providing source code access increases the pool of available developers. Today, there are five core developers (Robert, K, Reid, and Derek, thank you!) regularly working on WiX in their free time with another ten submitting fixes occasionally. Finally, many parts of the Open Source development process appeal to me. Back in 1999 and 2000, I did not feel that many people inside Microsoft understood what the Open Source community was really about and I wanted to improve that understanding by providing an example. Today, via WiX on SourceForge, you get to see the results of many people's efforts to improve Microsoft from the inside out. I'm not exactly sure what is going to happen next but I'm sure there are quite a few people who are interested to see where this leads. Personally, all I hope is that if you find the WiX toolset useful then you'll join the community and help us improve the toolset.

    If they mix this communicator with the thing NASA is inventing "To Hear Words Not Yet Spoken" so u'll have a very comfortable cellphone with cheap service that you can actually use with your mind.
