  1. Indeed on Houston Police Chief Wants Cameras in Homes · · Score: 1

    'I know a lot of people are concerned about Big Brother, but my response to that is, if you are not doing anything wrong, why should you worry about it?'

    Spoken like somebody who has never truly read Orwell.

  2. The bicep?!! on RFID Injection Required for Datacenter Access · · Score: 1

    But my hat only works on my head!

    Curse you!

  3. Re:Just what you'd expect from MIT Media Lab on MIT Fashion Show Online · · Score: 1

    where, you know, real people have to actually want to buy the stuff you design or you're out of a job...

    Real people buy stuff like this? Cause it seems that's what happens to fashion designers get jobs.

  4. Re:Holy Crap ... on MIT Fashion Show Online · · Score: 1

    What was it before?

  5. Tommorow's headline... on Google to Compete with iTunes? · · Score: 1

    Google Kills Godzilla!!

  6. Re:loading time on Web Users Judge Sites in the Blink of an Eye · · Score: 1

    I'm under the impression that they flashed it for 50ms and then gave the volunteers time to rate it.

  7. Cache? on New iMac disassembled · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Surely listing the cache right there in the article is just going to get coral's servers fragged as well?

  8. Early? on Microsoft to Patch WMF Exploit Early · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Early would have been before the original flawed release, surely?

  9. Wait... on Microsoft and MTV to Launch Music Service · · Score: 1

    How many music services does MS have now? 3? Or is that just me?

  10. Controller compatibility? on Xbox 360 Launches In U.S. · · Score: 1

    Can any /. 360 users confirm whether the old controller will work in the new console when fitted with a USB plug? I've heard good things about it's USB capabilities, but nowhere has been implicit about this.

  11. Re:For geeks only on First Xbox 360 Reviews Hitting the Web · · Score: 1

    Damn, that's good news! Original XB controllers for all!

  12. What about the accessories? on Xbox 360 Backward Compatibility Finalized · · Score: 1

    Hooray, I'll be able to play my favourite games on the 360. But what about my goddamned controllers? I'm not particularly enthused over the idea of buying another 3 controllers (at least one of which will be wireless, unless the 360 is happy with hubs) so I can play some 2v2 Slayer.

  13. OMGWTF HOW DAR U!!!111 on GORM 1.0 Release to Take on GNOME/KDE? · · Score: 1

    lololololol "beter than GNOME" yeh woteva!!!11

    [/n00b]

  14. They can do for me... on Should RISC OS be Open Sourced? · · Score: 1

    I think this would be a great idea. Hell, we could get an x86 port going and then we'd have some real fun! An OS designed for early 90s machines running on my AMD64? Go for it! Linux is a little slow for my liking ;)

  15. Re:What about HALO 2 for the PC? on Peter Jackson to Executive Produce Halo Movie · · Score: 1

    I think you're on a hiding to nothing. I'm under the impression that Halo 1 was only released for anything other than the XB because Bungie is an old Mac studio when Halo was under development.

  16. Re:Email and calandering..... on Mozilla Lightning Plans to Unify Mail & Calendar · · Score: 1

    I think the "patch it to break it" was more on the lines of "patch our closed-source server to break the usability of the open source client".

  17. I don't think so... on Sun President Says PCs Are Relics · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Considering how much it pisses me off when a power outage severs me from my data and services, I don't really want to rely on any other outside connection for my machine to run.

  18. Re:Questions on IE More Secure Than Mozilla? · · Score: 1

    It's also worth noting that Mozilla's popularity has boomed recently. More people means more bugs found, surely?

  19. I wont believe it's true! on Online Gambling Running Out of Steam · · Score: 1

    Valve have incorporated betting into CS matches?!

  20. The New Religion on Evidence of 6 Dimensions or More? · · Score: 1

    When I read articles like this I think to myself "Yup, they really don't have a clue why it works like that."

  21. Hold the press! on Only NFL Game This Year Gets Lukewarm Response · · Score: 0, Troll

    You're trying to tell me any sport-based game was ever fun?

  22. Great idea. on Warming Up Mars With Greenhouse Gases · · Score: 1

    Once the colonists have started producing these gases, what's going to stop them?

    Cue the "let's not mess up another planet" argument.

  23. Re:torrent on How Episode IV Should Have Ended · · Score: 1

    Y'know, when I saw the "bandiwdth exceeded" page, I was pretty much cursing /.... but now I'm connected to the best torrent I ever have been! There were, what, at least a bajillion peers?

  24. Keep it coming... on The End of a Floppy Era · · Score: 1

    No really, I really need more "news" articles from /. about how, woe, the end of the floppy is nigh!

  25. Makes sense... on Longhorn Drops 'My' Prefixes · · Score: 1

    With the number of security holes it's bound to introduce, may as well call it "Anybodys Computer".
