  1. Re:Say goodbye to free air on Car Powered by Compressed Air · · Score: 2, Informative

    I live in California, and the gas station nearest my house has an air compressor and water dispenser (for radiators), and it costs $.50 to use. The air hose has a guague, but it's crappy.

  2. Re:Why? on IRC On The PSP · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The point is not to make the PSP an end-all ubergadget that replaces everything else. It's more like "Wow, look what else we can make it do after its (arguably) a good gaming device!"

    Don't worry, your very expensive gadgets will always be superior to mods and hacks to a handheld game device. But don't rain on the parade of us that like the ability to stretch our PSPs to their best potential. I mean, wouldn't you be happy if you found out your new toy had an unexpected extra function, beyond what you paid for?

  3. Re:It occurs to me... on IRC On The PSP · · Score: 1

    Yeah, good idea- PSP P2P!

    What's next? A webserver- PSP PHP?

  4. Re:Go Microsoft on Spammer Bankrupted by Anti-Spammer Suits · · Score: 2, Informative

    So what then? We shouldn't choose? We shoud just sit on our hands and wait for an asteroid to hit us? That's a very pretty string of words, but it has absolutely no practical worth here.

  5. Re:Patents gone wild! on PlayStation Sales Halted? · · Score: 1

    Faker. You forgot to say ",eh."

  6. Re:Just to point out... on Saturn's Moon Enceladus Has an Atmosphere · · Score: 1

    All my cliche are belong to you.

  7. Re:I can see it all now... on Instant Buildings - Just Add Water · · Score: 2, Funny

    Based on my MRE experience (chicken patty theoretically) I'd rather eat the concrete. Hand me a round one.

  8. Re:I can't wait for these things to get smaller on Mac mini in a Volkswagen · · Score: 2, Funny

    Whoa whoa whoa. You're talking about human cyborg enhancements, and your comment's title is 'I can't wait for these things to get smaller?' I feel sorry for your wife/girlfriend... ;)

  9. Re:Come in handy... on AMD and Intel CPUs Supported On Same Motherboard · · Score: 1

    I see it as being more useful for testing the CPUs against each other. Being in (roughly) the same motherboard and in the same system would get rid of more variables and make the cpus the only thing you're testing. Too bad the two chips aren't cutting edge, though, where such tests are much more relevant..

  10. Re:This spells the end of the magazine on Apple Wins Against Bloggers · · Score: 1

    Nobody will tell them anything and sign their name anymore. They'll just always be anonymous now, with some sort of proof they're from apple. Maybe a lock of Steve Job's hair, I dunno. Yes, the magazine may get some bum stories, but it doesn't have to mean no more information.

  11. Re:Time to switch... on Music Piracy Unit Raids ISP in BitTorrent Assault · · Score: 0

    America Online? Or would it be Australia Online? ;)

  12. Re:WTF on Music Piracy Unit Raids ISP in BitTorrent Assault · · Score: 1, Insightful

    That may be how law works in America, but Australia may be different. Any Aussies out there that can explain how that works? Corporate police sound very creepy to me... The closes we have here are pseudocops with "RIAA" jackets harrasing street vendors of counterfit DVDs.

  13. Re:New jobs? on Australian ISPs Required To Report Child Porn · · Score: 0

    For a job like that? Santa Claus.

  14. Striders! on One Giant Step for Humanoids · · Score: 0

    Look out! Striders! Somebody get the rocket launcher!

  15. 2.0 Optimized on Stonehenge Version 2.0 Completed · · Score: 1, Funny

    Did they include extra bugs to be fixed when we buy the 3.0 upgrade?

  16. TEH FUNNAH!!!1 on Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future · · Score: 0

    Heh. Articles: "Unpredictability in Future Microprocessors" [3 hours later] -> "Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future"

  17. Think for a second on Taking My Freedom With Me to China? · · Score: 0

    So you're asking Chinese citizens that break the law to post how they do it? Not only does that put them at risk, but it makes it easier for the government to stop, depending on their method.

  18. Life imitates art on The Evolution of Space Suit Design · · Score: 0

    Notice how the space suit seems to be approaching this?

  19. Re:Who cares?! on Climate Change Doubles Drought Stricken Area · · Score: 0

    God Bless America.

  20. Re:Well.... on Caltech and JPL Build 50ft Robot · · Score: 0

    Well, if he finds it first.

    I'm referring to the law of 'finder's keepers' that seems to apply to gundams, from the original series up to gundam seed. Think about it. :P

  21. Re:People who do that sort of thing... on Rage Against the Machines · · Score: 3, Funny

    You're just sucking up because of the coming robopocalypse.

  22. Solar clothes on Pliable Solar Cells on a Roll · · Score: 0

    So... what color is it?

  23. Re:Cost savings on Internet-By-Airship Scheduled For Trial Next Month · · Score: 0

    So long as He stays cheap. There were some comments on another story that Gelium reserves are low. It says 37,000 cubic metres of Helium, but at what T & P? How many moles?

  24. Re:BSOD on Online Aromatherapy in Japan · · Score: 0

    It smells like burning.

  25. Re:Canadian Credit Card Required. on Canadian iTunes Music Store Opens · · Score: 0
