  1. Re:If they have all this free time on IL School District to Monitor Student Blogs · · Score: 1

    Well, one view point would be why? Why would you want the students smarter? That is if infact the intent is to control the masses, which does sound more and more plausible.

  2. Re:Makes perfect sence to me on IL School District to Monitor Student Blogs · · Score: 1

    This is all fine and dandy, just let us non-Americans know when we need to stay away from the USA.

  3. Re:Oh yes, how they've learned... on Nintendo Learns from Mistakes with GameCube · · Score: 1

    When Hooked on Phonics fails.

  4. Re:Sued ... why no FBI raid? on MPAA Being Sued For Allegedly Hacking Torrentspy · · Score: 1

    I kinda find it funny how worried all those "legislators" got. Kinda makes you wonder how much they have to hide.

  5. Re:Forcing Next Gen. on The End of the Original Xbox · · Score: 1

    Forcing you maybe. I see other brighter options. Then again, I don't buy Microsoft.

  6. Re:It is still Google's property on Google News, Censorship or Responsible Journalism? · · Score: 1

    Until Google becomes the internet, I would say NO to both questions.

  7. Re:THATS great on Trolltech Going Public · · Score: 1

    Maybe there are side effect to air conditioning that we do not yet know about.

  8. It is still Google's property on Google News, Censorship or Responsible Journalism? · · Score: 1

    Why do people get their panties twisted everytime Google does something with their own property. Call me when Google becomes a monopoly and is degrading the rights of people around the world. Until then, let Google be.

  9. Re:That's unreasonable on What Should One Know to be Truly Computer Literate? · · Score: 1

    Then you either have never seen the inside of a computer , have never seen the inside of a car, or both. Anybody who wants to can put together a modern computer. They are very much idiot proofed.

  10. Re:This confirms it. on 130 Filesharer Homes Raided in Germany · · Score: 1

    So often such stupid sentiments are post anonymously.

  11. Re:Nope on DRM Protest in Hazmat Suits · · Score: 1

    Well, that's just exercising the freedom which the infidels hate.

  12. Re:Ah, mature, rational discourse! on DRM Protest in Hazmat Suits · · Score: 1

    Seemed like more of an attempt to gain attention than an attempt to explain.

    And for those who believe...God.

  14. Re:Reef Etiquette on Scientists Search Deep Sea Reefs for Wonder Drugs · · Score: 1

    No actually, the sound recorder in Windows can only record about a minutes of audio. I guess now I know why.

  16. Re:i bet on Windows Media Player 11 and Urge · · Score: 1

    This has been doable since Sound Blaster Live, for the latest, with the included recording software noless, recording from "What U Hear" I think it was.

  17. Re:Why so protective of such users ? on New IM Worm Installs Own Web Browser · · Score: 1

    What would you consider to be the worst case scenario if "we" were to just let computer users (in general) click adn run to their hearts delight? Not trying to be sarcastic, just wondering.

  18. Re:In the end... on .xxx registry sues US government · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Instead of something as vague as porn, offer it as a tld for business that offer adult entertainment as their primary product/service.

  19. Why so protective of such users ? on New IM Worm Installs Own Web Browser · · Score: 1

    Why not just _let_ the users do what they want? It's their computer. They paid their money for it, and along with that made their choice of OS. If they did so ignorantly, that's still their responsiblity. I say let people click on IM's etc. and get viruses. The only malware I am worried about is the type that "cracks" into a system without the user having to run it.

  20. Re:Too Bad... on New IM Worm Installs Own Web Browser · · Score: 1

    So umm...I thought most of those things were paid by geeks. Why wouldn't they be on Geek-Net?

    I resent that. I am loved.

  22. Re:The horror on Giant Paramount Auction of Star Trek Items · · Score: 1

    I would consider myself a geek. But the whole Star Trek thing is a bit over the top. Stargate...now that's a show.

    Yet, we can give old men woodies, and change people's physical gender.

    And the fact that the lawsuit in question has nothing to do with NAV does not bother you?
