  1. Re:I always wanted to do this... ;)[get upto date] on Star Wars TV Show, And An Unmade Trilogy · · Score: 1
    This method is old hat, if you want to whore karma these days its much more rad and usefull to append .nyud.net:8090/

    So a revised way to avoid slashdotting:

    http://comingsoon.net.nyud.net:8090/news/topnews.p hp?id=6318

    and also:

  2. Re:USB 2 can give good video on ATI TV Wonder USB 2.0 Reviewed · · Score: 2, Informative

    I had an internal avermedia card (which worked okay under linux) but it was an utter whore under windows. Caused alot of instability and the software was shit. Moral of the story: never buy Avermedia.

    Would it be in bad taste if I said:
    *shrug*
    Acidents happen. :P

  4. If you think thats bad on Broadband Envy: Fixing American Broadband · · Score: 1

    You should check out the UK.
    There is plenty of market for fast connections, but there are mainly between 512Kbit and 3Mbit connections available (the faster ones being rarer) and whats more this shitty slow connection costs more than one of 4 or 5 times the speed over in America.
    Stop whining, bitches.

  5. Re:Nah... on No Noise PC Reviewed · · Score: 1
    Actually, this pc being one massive heatsink, I should imagine it does about as good a heating job as a fan pc would.

    But I suppose fas help pump the heat about the place. Each to thier own type of heater I suppose.

  6. Standards on MSIE 7 May Beat Longhorn Out The Gate · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If microsoft do manage to get standard complience into this new IE browser, then at least the rest of the internet that was still catering to shity IE 5.5 type design will be practically forced away. It might be good news for people who don't even USE IE. *continues living in a fantasy*

  7. Re:Damn the NYT! on Disney Enters PC Market · · Score: 1

    Try the 'bugmenot' extension for firefox.

    >> Kids hate using things that are purposefully crippled for kids. Adults aparently don't. look at XP.

    if you would please, my e-mail address is currently *cringe* norgus8@hotmail.com I assume your not actually offering this anyway because of the weird e-mail address you have on show. But if you are offering, please invite me ^_^

  10. corpse like? on Realistic Human Graphics Look Creepy · · Score: 1

    This is great news for developers of games such as Resident Evil! They don't have to wait till the rendering guys perfect thier art to get the desired effect in the models.

  11. Re:examples? on Realistic Human Graphics Look Creepy · · Score: 1

    It looks fairly realistic, someone should provide a lossless version (such as PNG) for a good idea of the realism.

  12. Re:examples? on Realistic Human Graphics Look Creepy · · Score: 1

    The fact they still have to be computer coreographed and lip-synced and put into poses etc. In fact you only get a shape from a body scan don't you? Maybe the raster graphics as well.

  13. for anyone who doesnt like the manky alpha theme on Mozilla 1.7, Firefox 0.9 Release Candidates Out · · Score: 1, Informative

    http://quadrone.org/graphics/Qute/Qute.jar just install this and your back to it looking decent :)

  14. free hardware? on Sun Says Hardware Will Be Free · · Score: 0

    does this mean I can get a free pc at microsofts expence, then not pay the software fee and install linux :D

  15. hmm on Mars & The Teachable Moment · · Score: 0

    anyone with thier head screwed on right doesnt take the sudo-stuff seriously.

  16. Re:As a web streaming provider on EU Releases Microsoft Antitrust Report · · Score: 1

    Precisely why I'll always be avoiding websites such as your own, like the plague. WMP has a trashy interface, its functionality sucks and it hogs resources and takes up space on my HDD that could be used on something usefull. I also HATE the video and audio previews in windows explorer, but thats almost a different arguent. If M$ remove media player it's an improvement and I'll be using mplayer classic or something decent thankyou very much.

  17. oh come ON! on The Myth Of The 100-Year CD-Rom · · Score: 1

    If you looked after the cd's anywhere as near as you clearly did that tape, and they wernt cheap unbranded crap CD's then I expect they would well outlive the crusty old teck. Try abusing the origionals in the way you clearly do the cd's and the data won't last a second.

  18. Re:Give me Album Shuffle on The Joy of Random Shuffle · · Score: 1

    I'd really like a feature like that actually. I like random because sometimes there isnt time to listen all the way through, and random allows me not to only hear the first 3 tracks of a CD over and over due to lack of time. I say that your brain damaged if you always listen from the begining and never get the time to hear the last tracks, its just stupid.
