  2. Macros Allowed on Banned From WoW For WINE & Programmable Keyboard · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So Blizzard allows you to script your own Macros through the console, but if you Macro through a keyboard that is botting? Okay then.

  3. DMCA? on Creative use for empty whiskey bottles · · Score: 1

    Wow..I can't wait for the whisky company to step in and try to administer the DMCA against this endeavour. Remember FedEx with their boxes?

    Surely they want you to get drunk off your ass and end up on America's Craziest Videos, not use it for gadgetry and have a post on Slashdot about it.

  4. PP has their Own on PayPal Freezes Hurricane Relief Account · · Score: 0

    Maybe PayPal wanted to be the only one to use their own service to collent Hurricane Relief Funds. Check out the Katrina link on their home.

    Quote = EDIT: Apparently the slaughterhouse sites are getting hammered... they might take a while to load.

    Did he just redirect them to hot-linked images on someone else's site?

  7. Bankruptcy through Trials on New Round of P2P Lawsuits from Hollywood · · Score: 0

    Okay..let them try to sue a few hundred thousand people. They will probably find that the legal costs will quickly surpass the piracy costs. Heck, let them sue every last bit-shared until their bankrupt. That'll show them their flawed logic.

    Thank you, come again.

  10. Re:Woo! on Phantom Console May Never Materialize · · Score: 1

    I dunn, eBay already has them and they are going for the high price of $2-8 for such a rare and meaningful item.

  13. Whoa..first post? on Survey Shows Admins Avoiding SP2 · · Score: 3, Funny

    No way It cannot be..I feel special now. I use SP2 and have no problems. When I first installed it the thing went wonky...and I just ignored all the problems. Then they magically went away.

  14. Again? on SMPTE Adoption Of WMV9 Hits Some Snags · · Score: 1

  15. 3rd Amend on IBM Tells SCO Court It Can't Find AIX-on-Power Code · · Score: 1

  17. Censor Jesus on Does Google Censor Chinese News? · · Score: 1

    It sounds like a step towards trying to regulate the internet.

    The internet is nowhere, but it is everywhere..it has no boundaries.

    China, and any other countries that try to contain the internet sounds very bad. It is a sad day when you have to cheat your way around something as useful as the internet to get a look into the real world.

  18. Gotta be fake on Xbox 2 Concept Designs Leaked? · · Score: 1
    It has got to be fake. MS is *NOT* going to call the next gen Xbox, "2"

    They know if they have Xbox2 next to PS3, people will view it inferior.

  19. Company Mission on Caller ID Spoofing Firm Gets Death Threats · · Score: 1

    About *38
    Threatening letters are treated like direct mail - never opened and always thrown away.Calls that come up "private", "unknown" or "blocked" do not get answered and the cost of deducting wages for some debts is not worth the cost. Star38 understands this. That is why we created a simple, inexpensive and easy way for collection agencies to legally and credibly define caller id.

    So much for his own philosophy. *snicker*

  20. WHERE THE HELL IS SP2 BY NOW on NIST Issues Windows XP Security Guide · · Score: 1

    Longhorn is going to be released before SP2 is release..which is supposed to clean up a lot of these loose ends.

  21. Papers Please on U.S. Supreme Court: Public Anonymity No Right · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't see why he didn't just show the papers. But then again, he did no harm, so it does all seem like bullshiz.

    I have had a few encounters with law enforcement. Some ask for ID others don't. After a night of playing hockey, some friends and I were standing in a parking lot and talking for quite sometime. Since it was a night game, the hours were late and spanned into early hours. A cruiser rolled up and asked, "whatcha doing?" Our reply was, "Oh we played hockey, and no we're just talking." The officer was nice, "That's cool, just making sure nothing wrong and such. Hockey sounds fun, I gotta get back to the streets." No ID checks, no baraging questions or invading requests.

    Another time was exactly the opposite. Had to work a closing shift at work till 10:30PM. After the shift we all talked. Half were in a car, half were in the lot in front of the work place. All were wearing workshirts and in uniform still. Two police cruisers rolled up with spotlights. Those in the car were told to remain still and show their hands. Those not were told to stand still and show hands. All of use were asked what we were doing and why we were here. Then ID were demanded and more questioning. About 20 minutes later they returned, we all had NO records. Then we were all told that we had to go immediately home.

    I'm confused with the law.
