  1. This statement is false on $100,000 Poker Bot Tournament · · Score: 1

    Who needs the whole Eliza program just throw "this statement is false" as a default response. Just ensure that your robot has a built in catch for this statement otherwise it will be cuaght up in this conundrum.

  2. Pimp My Ride on Ride Along With a Real Verizon Wireless Tester · · Score: 5, Funny

    All that equipment but the guy really hoped that MTV and Xzibit would Pimp His Ride!!!

  3. Priceless on Thin CRTs to Challenge LCDs in 2005 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Money saved on reduced cost CRT's $20. Money spent on replacing eyes from radiation...priceless

  4. I demand a mis trial on The Verdict on WinXP SP2? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I downloaded SP2 on my laptop and it caused a ripple effect thus disabling 99% of my non microsoft programs. Thus the last straw to be broken for me to switch to Linux. Looks like Bill is now off my christmas card list :P.

  5. Gee...how generous on SCO Puts a Cap on its Legal Expenses · · Score: 0

    Now I can wait for them to jack it up after they lose the IBM lawsuit.

  6. Blame Game on IE Holes Not Microsoft's Fault, Says Bill · · Score: 1, Informative

    Internet Explorer's flaws are strictly the fault of Microsoft. Mozilla Firefox is far less flawed. If Microsoft hired more people in programming then it did in fixing flaws then maybe they would have a half decently secured system ala Internet Explorer.

  7. Ozone 1 Earth 0 on Ozone Hole Getting Smaller · · Score: 0

    Now if only pollution will stop the weird weather patterns we've been getting.

  8. Who needs that type of space really? on 100 GB Email Account · · Score: 0

    Imagine how long it would take for ur account to fill up if you subscribe to porn sites. Who really needs that much space.

  9. 360Mbps++ on Germans Reach 360 Mbps in Mobile Network Tests · · Score: 0

    Now i can find a nice wireless hotspot and download faster then ever before. Who needs to pay to use dial up when wireless is faster and "free".

  10. Dog Gone on Upgrade Your Dog · · Score: 0

    Why not a robotic dog with a telephone? Then it saves the owner from carrying their phone around with them.

  11. Safety Comes First.. on In Dash Car MP3 Player with 802.11? · · Score: 0

    No more driving off the side of the road while trying to pickup a wireless hotspot connection.

  12. Munich Munch on Patent Concerns Unlikely To Nix Munich Linux Plan · · Score: 0

    Did Munich realise the legal bind they got into for running illegal copies of Windows? All i can say is pwned!!

  13. Why can't I have a death star? on Star Wars Minutiae · · Score: 0

    They pay the janitors cheaply so they can afford the movie. Back in the 80's. Its a shame that the movies now cost 100 times more and the labor cost is like 3 times more. But better spending on the movies for better cgi. Go star wars!!!

  14. BYO Power on Build Your Own Solar-Powered Scooter · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    How bout a "natural gas" powered scooter. Although the requirement is to eat lots of mexican food.

  15. No its not on Animated Short - This Wonderful Life · · Score: -1

    They should scrap that idea and redo Its A Wonderful Life starring Mel Gibson where he goes on a murderous rampage in the end. Like in the Simpsons.

    Go Team!!!

  16. SPOOF on Spam Over Internet Telephony (SPIT) to Come? · · Score: 0

    Spam Proofing Of Outrageous Fees

  17. SPAM DIS on FTC Recommends Bounty on Spammers · · Score: 0

    I think spamming should be stopped, but six figures is just too much. It'll probably just be given to Bill Gates to add to his collection.

  18. Copyright Infringement on New Robots and the Ten Ethical Laws Of Robotics · · Score: 0

    I think there have been some copyright infringments from the movie I, Robot. 3 Laws in the movie sound a bit like the 10 ethical laws here. Who infringed on who's copyright?

    But seriously as with all rules/laws, especially in terms of technology, they are meant to be broken. In other cases somebody will just hack into these robots and change them. In the end were all doomed.

  19. Its all the same on Strange Attractor - On High Concepts For Games · · Score: 5, Insightful

    How many times do you buy a game and get bored with it like after a week. Doom3 and manhunt are both examples of this. They are more worried about special effects rather than the backbone of the game i.e. the storyline. I find myself drawn to games i have played to death rather then new games that I buy. Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice city are both games I can play over and over while others such as Doom3 i get bored with. I guess the same can be said about the movie industry and lack of quality movies with poor storylines. I say if they spent less time on graphics and more on storyline then the problem will be less severe.

  20. SP2 on Microsoft Lists SP2 Incompatibilities · · Score: 1, Funny

    I think it would be quicker if Microsoft would just list Microsoft XP Service Pack 2's compatabilities. This list would be shorter and that is the truth.

  21. Re:Money makes the world go around on Online Gaming Habits Surveyed · · Score: 1

    I'm on dial up. I pay jack all. And no I have never paid money to play online games. Thats the way the world should work

  22. Re:Money makes the world go around on Online Gaming Habits Surveyed · · Score: 1

    Hey i'm no left wing anarchist hippy but its just I hate it when people decide to charge fees making like 300% profit. There's the injustice.

  23. Worst Movie Ever on What's the Worst Movie You've Ever Seen? · · Score: 1

    The top 10 worst movies i have ever seen in order are:
    1.) Jersey Girl

    4.) The Mighty Ducks
    5.) GI Jane
    6.) Vanilla Sky
    7.) Moulin Rouge
    8.) King Arthur
    9.) Garfield: The Movie
    10.) Fear

    Also anything with Penelope Cruz

  24. Money makes the world go around on Online Gaming Habits Surveyed · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think it is a joke that people using xbox live and console based online games must pay such high fees for using such facilities. Not only do people have to pay for broadband which is expensive enough (at least in Australia), but also to pay the ridiculous fees which line the pocket of fatcat businessmen. At least with PC online games generally it is free to play. I know one thing i'm not asking Santa for this year. Also haven't we learned that connecting anything made from microsoft to the internet is a disaster waiting to happen al-la Windows 98 article
