  1. Re:Hardware encoding on 3D Raytracing Chip Shown at CeBIT · · Score: 1

    mmm... ARCsoft

  2. Re:It looks like it's running through vmware on Solaris 10 Installation and Desktop Walkthrough · · Score: 4, Funny

    Not to mention a lot less "Lose all contents of your drive." Solaris is a stuck up bitch and won't go out with scrubs who can only give her a partition.

  3. Re:Stupid Gold Farmers! on Blizzard Drops the Hammer on Gold Farmers · · Score: 2, Funny

    Dey took arr jobs!

  4. Re:Nero is to K3B arguably what OSX is to Linux on Nero Burning for Linux · · Score: 1

    It'll just burn a data cd with an .iso file on it. Worthless.

  5. Re:Nero is to K3B arguably what OSX is to Linux on Nero Burning for Linux · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I can't speak to the full version of Nero 6, but K3b is well superior to the Nero Express 5.5 that came with my CD-R drive. Trying to burn an .iso with that watered down piece of crap is an ordeal.

  6. Re:The question is: on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger to Arrive in April · · Score: 1

    Cleartype, man. Sometimes I think about going back to 2000, but subpixel font rendering is what makes it all worthwhile.

  7. Re:No message? on FTC Shuts Down Fraudulent Antispyware Company · · Score: 0

    In case you haven't heard yet, the lokitorrent shutdown was a fraud and the owner ran off with the "legal defense fund"

  8. Re:Deep Blue on Chess Master Kasparov To Retire · · Score: 2, Informative

    WOPR (since you asked)

  9. Re:Two comments on Rappers the Next Super Heroes? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Dollar Dollar C.R.E.A.M. ?

  10. Re:and the list grows.... on N-Gage to Get Another Overhaul · · Score: 1

    don't forget the Nomad!

  11. Re:It's Not About Your Rights on The Repercussions of Blogging · · Score: 1

    It's the same way here in south carolina, but I, and most everyone else around here, is just fine with that as a tradeoff for not being forced to join a union as a condition of employment.

  12. Re:good enough on Fragging on Linux and TransGaming · · Score: 1

    On an interesting aside, Laminar Research has it's offices a few blocks from here. Never would've expected such a well known and respected software package to come out of South Carolina...

  13. Re:Yes, but... on Wells Fargo Web-Enables ATMs · · Score: 1

    "Were this the old west, I would have shot him right between the head"

  14. Re:Political leaders are not necessarily intellige on Utah Considers Forcing ISPs to Filter Content · · Score: 1

    Internet God Maddox lives in salt lake city, he seems pretty popular...

  15. Re:Update is vendor's job on Revamped Linux Kernel Numbering Concluded · · Score: 1

    Wait, I thought the kernel is the OS?

  16. Re:Mod me down but this is no big accomplishment on GlobalFlyer Completes Record-Breaking Flight · · Score: 3, Informative

    Publicity for the same rich guy, in fact. Branson put up all the cash for this little excursion.

  17. Re:Jiglyph on Webcam Jigsaw Solver in 200 Lines of Python · · Score: 3, Funny

    In soviet russia, Pedantic defines me!

  18. Re:I do not (have any MP3s) on Ask mc chris · · Score: 1

    How much does his recent sellout to televsion bother you?

  19. Re:I just tried mine... on Magnetic Stripe Snooping at Home · · Score: 0

    33% joke recognition? You're hopeless optimistic friend. That said, mmm, walrus.

  20. Re:Motherboard support on Stallman Calls For Action on Free BIOS · · Score: 1

    Pfft. Nothing a paint stripper can't fix.

  21. Re:I suggest on Experts Suggest Replacing Definition of Kilogram · · Score: 1

    I was always taught that a kilogram was the mass of one liter of water, is this merely a coincidence?

  22. Re:Why were the tapes on a plane to begin with? on Bank Of America Loses 1.2 Million Customer Records · · Score: 1
    Well, as the old adage goes, nothing has more bandwidth than a van full of media.

    Except a cargo plane full of media.

  23. Re:Great! on Microsoft Will Pay If Its Bugs Damage Your Data · · Score: 1

    Sweet, I'm not the only one who's still pushing that. I like punning it up a bit with "canon" though. Maybe that way he'll learn what it is.

  24. Re:Nothing to see indeed. on Congress to Investigate ChoicePoint · · Score: 1
    Yes, Enron's managers are teh evil sux0r and should all die.

    That said, anyone who was so heavily invested in a single company that it's collapse could bring about their ruin had it coming. DIVERSIFICATION, fucktards.
