  1. well on Copyright Axe To Fall On YouTube? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Copyright Axe hasn't hit Ebaumsworld yet, and they have plenty of content ripped straight from DVDs. And hell, they even get a TV show out of it.

  2. come on on Mandriva 2007 RC1 Released · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    This has to be the worst way to release an iso ever, the downloads page has everything you need.. EXCEPT for the download link. So does anyone have a torrent to the install dvd?

  3. Re:Installer needs work... on FreeDOS 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Does it run better than it would in DOSbox?

  4. i don't know on Ad-supported Textbooks Are Here · · Score: 1

    ever since grade school, there has always been product placement in every one of my text books (except science, which always uses stuff like 'cola' or 'orange juice' brand colas and orange juices)

    So no, i wouldn't mind an actual ad every here and then.

  5. Lies! on Mainframe Meets 'The Office' · · Score: 5, Funny

    This article has NOTHING to do with a comibinatin of Reboot and The Office

  6. Re:Blah. on Friendster Back from the Dead? · · Score: 1

    what, did they change their name to Friendstr?

  7. yeah.. on EBay Sellers Seek Management Change · · Score: 1

    I don't spose people are too upset about google purchase being outlawed either.

  8. Re:/. is an editorial factory on TiVo Wins Permanent Injunction Against EchoStar · · Score: 4, Insightful

    definately, do you have any idea i spent on that DVR?

  9. Re:Only the Good. on UCSD Biometric Vending Machine · · Score: 2, Funny

    did someone say BeBop cola?

  10. Re:Literally exploded? on House Passes Ban on Social Site Access · · Score: 2, Funny

    didn't you see? Amazon is a haven for sexual preditors...trying to sell you books!

  11. Re:Artifact Creature on Flying Robots Made From Cellophane? · · Score: 1

    i am SO sorry i don't have any modpoints for you!

  12. Re:No Funny Games on Leisure Suit Larry's Maker On Wedgies v. Bullets · · Score: 1

    im on your side, comedy games just don't work for me! they're largely based on slapstick.. which leads to one of two problems

    1. It gets annoying after 3 hours of fart jokes

    2. game designers make the game shorter because its humerous plot just isn't very long.

    now, don't get me wrong. Sam and Max is probably the best exception to these! and i wish them the best in the upcoming adventure. But the latest leisure suit larry... just isn't good.

  13. Re:It could be worse on Who Controls the Internet? · · Score: 1

    i agree, i remember more 'AOL keywords' than I do web sites. Nowadays its go to nike.com/fusion (made up) - companies are getting farther and farther from their domain.

  14. Re:The last DVD on 'Final Edition' of Blade Runner to be Released · · Score: 1

    except no part of the movie was shot in HD...the most benefit you can get is commentary from every actor, the director, producers, the execs who ok'd the budget, etc etc.

    but no HighDef.

  15. Re:You Insensitive Clod! on 'Final Edition' of Blade Runner to be Released · · Score: 3, Funny

    great... Whodunnit was on my netflix queue!

    They have spoiler tags for a reason!

  16. Re:Does it answer a really important question? on Open Source Game Development · · Score: 3, Interesting

    not overly true, Quake 4 special edition came with Quake 2. Quake 2 has been open source for some while now.

    Making the game opensource does not supply people with the game content, only the engine code :)

  17. Re:Which side? on Who Will Join Microsoft in the Portal Wars? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    well if you got ot live.com one of the default things is fox sports. Fox was also mentioned during his keynote not too long ago. so i'd say they've already got a relationship going, and are just waiting to kick it up a notch.

  18. Re:even the Constitution holds otherwise on AT&T Accidentally Leaks NSA Suit Information · · Score: 1

    just to be anal about it, the bill of rights is only the first 10 amendments

  19. Re:But remember on IL School District to Monitor Student Blogs · · Score: 1

    i'd say "prove its me"...

    but school systems very seldom follow any sort of legal process- suspend now, ask questions later (kinda like that case where the boy brought a knife to school by accident, turned it in so he wouldn't get in trouble, and then ended up suspended)

  20. Re:PlayStation 360, PlayCube, Mario on Xbox... on Nintendo Learns from Mistakes with GameCube · · Score: 1

    i think you mean Xbox stands for XTREME BOX

  21. Re:Foolish on Lower-Price PS3 Mostly Upgradeable · · Score: 5, Insightful

    not to mention MS and Sony being so money orientated. I don't recall hearing an announcement that there would be 2 Wii's. Only the expensive one gets the cool controllers.

    This whole xbox360 'core' and 'premium' and then ps3 'high' and 'low' thing is RIDICULOUS. Good job Nintendo for giving everyone the same thing with a reasonable price, rather than a crippled machine for a lower price.

  22. Re:Please no... on Next in Browser Development, High DPI Websites? · · Score: 1

    i run an ultra high resolution, when i come across a text heavy page i hold down ctrl and then use scrollwheel for on the fly text size changing i never wear my glasses at the pc, so this feature (ctrl+Scrollwheel, not high DPI sites) is a godsend

  23. Re:What's the incentive to write a program for OS on Run Windows Applications Natively in OS X? · · Score: 1

    i don't know, i'd put this more as a "hey gamers, you can play UT2004 on our stuff too!" as on a user to user basis there are not that many programs that i'd want to reboot just to use. Heck, that's why i hate GRUB so much, if i leave my computer unattended during a startup i have to restart it just to get into windows!

  24. Re:I dislike Ubuntu on Looking Forward, Ubuntu Linux 6.06 · · Score: 1

    i skip live-CDs and go straight to install, it's really not ubuntus fault though, i had to bugger through five hours of trials to get the dang card to work with windows (a windows patch/auto restart short circuited my embedded chip, bought the card, installed, didn't work, go into bios, force embedded sound, and then it uses the soundcard... effin geniuses at compaq.)

  25. Re:Only thing missing: on A DS In Every Pot · · Score: 1

    id rather see an Ogre Battle: DS, but yeah. the ds is lacking in this area...but isn't that why they put the GBA slot on?
