  1. Re:Despite this being a joke on Apple Hires DVD Jon · · Score: 1

    Same. They really need to hire him. They've got to learn that as long as they keep him out there, he'll keep plugging away at his keyboard. I mean I haven't that they released a new patch maybe out of fear he'll crack that one. They need to hire him. It's a given.

  6. Then.... on Paris Hilton Recruited to Publicize Linux · · Score: 1
    Paris Hilton's Linux will be broken into. The hackers will find the ultimte Hollywood celeb phone number list and the sequel to "One Night in Paris." They will also find that most of her IM conversations aRe tYpeD lYkE tHiS and find many many folders of her with topless and/or naked with the following people: Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff, Avril Lavgiene (fuck sp) and Mandy Moore.

    Linux then lose it's big market share because people will afraid it will be insecure or, Linux will become the teenybopper system. Linus Torvalds will commit suicide and the FSF buliding in Cambridge will implode and GNU Hurd becomes the new system of the open source movement.

    Either that, or she'll think it's underwear.

  7. Finally. on Sony to Make an "iTunes for Movies" · · Score: 0

    I was wondering when someone would catch on to create a iTunes for movies and maybe a iPod movie. But, I think this is a pretty good idea. But then again, it could fail badly.

  8. Re:UMD could be a success on Sony to Make an "iTunes for Movies" · · Score: 0

    I was thinking the same thing. They need to move into the movie market. I mean they have iPod photo, why not an iPod video. You could watch not only movies, but music videos too.

  9. And... on Government Finishes Internet Study -- 7 years late · · Score: 0

    Who recieved this report. I think it landed on Bush's desk and he just went... "What's thisss?" and then tossed in the Democrat garbage pile.

  10. I get alot. on How Much Respect Do You Get? · · Score: 0

    At my school, from my family and friends. I get alot of support when it comes to respect. I'm respected very much when it comes to computers. I had respect somewhat at my last school. But back in elementary school, I didn't get much respect. Then again, it was around 95 and computers in schools were becoming bigger fads so geeks like me weren't excepted. It also didn't help that I had Aspberger's syndrome, so I looked like a mental case to most people.

  12. Stupid... on Private .US Registrations Disallowed by NTIA · · Score: 1
    I've never heard anyone every complain that they were getting phised, scammed or whatever blah blah blah... When they owned a .com/.org/.net domain. It's stupid if you ask me. I'm liberal, but this is just retarded liberalness.

    I mean, whoopy-doo-dah It's just the stupid libreals believing this is a major invasion of their privacy. Oh, wow....

    So let me ask you this, if you owned a gTLD, and you required to enter your info, would go OMFG THIS IS INVADING MY PRIVACY. No, I think you'd go ahead and sign it, but it's it a .us, you freak out. Are you afraid just because you have a .us domain all the sudden every spammer/cracker/telemarketer/phisher is going to be heading in flocks towards you info. Nope, I doubt it.

    I liked it better when it the .us registry was run by that college/university/insitute. Not the company that handles the NANPA.

    If you so worried about your privacy. Why don't you use a .tk domain like me. I mean, I just whois'd it and no info came up. Happy now? Feel safe? Good.

    Of course I bet their too lazy to even add that feature, they'll require the manufactuers to put a bigass magnet somewhere safe in the box with a label on it saying:

    For use when preparing to resell. Place magnet on computer and call Microsoft to get mandatory $100 product deactivation. Thank you, MicrosoftTM

    Heh. They have a shuttle (Orginally two, the orginial one and the only one that went into space was destroyed in 2002 when a roof collasped). Let's l00t theirs!!! Other than that, I knew about this a few weeks ago.

  17. Re:Can they do no wrong? on Google Buys Urchin Web Analytics · · Score: 1

    I think Google Maps looks good over all, I mean cool thing is it's flash, so it's way much eaiser to scroll somewhere (like around my town) without hearing the click and image loading. What I can't wait for is for them start adding overhead images taken by Keyhole. Google News does seem unorganized. But mind you it's like Google, Google Image Search and Froogle. It shows a quick summary then you click the link and it's hosted on the site the story is from, unlike with Yahoo! News where it's acutally hosted on Yahoo.
