  1. Re:New Series on Firefly Movie Gets The Green Light · · Score: 0

    Fox still owns the TV rights to Firefly. They've sold the movie rights (and only the movie rights) to Universal.

  10. The ports on TiVo Buys Super Secret Strangeberry · · Score: 1

    Studying the picture, I make out the following ports.

    On the leftmost device from bottom to top: Ethernet, A/V connectors, and a something that appears to be a minijack (1/8" stereo).

    On the middle device from bottom to top: DC power, strange unidentified connector, A/V connectors, S-Video, another unidentified connector (could be many things), and an ethernet.

    The last device (the one with the antenna) appears to be showing it's front, on which there is a remote control thingy (I'm drawing a blank on what they call them), and a power button.

    Observations: The leftmost device doesn't appear to have a power port. It's also odd that there's a minijack on the back - most minijacks you would find on the front of a device because of their most common use - headphones. The middle device doesn't have the minijack, but does have everything else the smaller left device has and more. Most interesting is the port 2nd from bottom that has a most peculiar shape. The third device is entirely different from the other two, and sports an entirely different color. It could easily be mistaken for a wireless router was it not for the remote control thingy (arrgh!!!) on the front.

    What do they do? No idea in the least.

  11. Idea: Make Whedon's Firefly instead! on Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Rumors · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Ha! We'll never get original Star Wars DVDs. If we're lucky we might get that modified 20th aniversary crap (I'm not a fan of modified films), but it's debatable to call that lucky.

    No more madness! Stop these horrid movies! Hope Fox'll make Firefly instead.

    FIREFLY RULES!!!

  12. Re:What were they thinking? on Photoshop Fails At Counterfeit Prevention · · Score: 1

    'The ease with which people seemed to be eluding the anti-counterfeiting software left some wondering why Adobe had included it in the first place.' Just copy and paste the picture from another application to circumvent the software? Did adobe even really try?
