  1. I guess they are virgins! on Apple Quietly Recommends Antivirus Software For Macs · · Score: 1

    >Run multiple anti virus solutions...

    Are they serious, they never tries to turn on a computer that had symantec, mcafee, adware, spybot all installed at the same time.... I guess M$ is a bit ahead of them on that then...

  2. Instead of... on Bush Demands Amnesty for Spying Telecoms · · Score: 1

    See, this is what I mean Bush...is just too slow.... he has the power NOW to do something to help them , yet too slow to know it. Sure he could let the companies get prosecuted, sure they coudl get sentences, and 5 minutes later (as many president's before him at the end of their term) get pardons for all their crimes committed ....seriously, did he forget???

  3. What about on FCC Considering Free Internet For USA · · Score: 1

    At one time, netzero was supposed to be free, so they proved that model does not work, and is too costly, how about just giving more regulations about ISPs charging for bandwidth, and keeping the prices low, by offering them compensation, everybody wins. We get better and cheaper internet, the ISP gets more money, and the government does not lose so much starting a project they will abandon 5 years from now seeing the are unable to keep up with the costs, this way they only spend to improve whats already there.

  4. Well you get what you pay for on Bittorrent To Cause Internet Meltdown · · Score: 1

    If my ISP starts blocking traffic I consider valid coming to me, because it happens to be torrent traffic, they deserve what they get. Regardless of what type of traffic I am getting, if I use the bandwidth for A, B , or C it does not matter how I use the traffic, I still have 1gb per month download. Don't penalize me for using one form over another, or getting all my download at once instead of over the course of the month.

    I hope enough people complain that this does not become an accepted practice amongst the ISPs to block torrent. Many technologies use the torrent download system, and do so because of better performance for people using the same technologies in conjunction with torrent

  5. Re:Call your credit card company.... on Recourse For Poor Customer Service? · · Score: 1

    I would just do it to them anyways, I would cancel the CC charge, change the CC number just in case, and maybe reorder using a diff CC if you really must have a dell, but why brand new, could you not used....so not stuck with Vista?

  6. Re:Depends of your point of view on The Myth of Upgrade Inevitability Is Dead · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't agree, I was one of those dads as was MY own dad, who left the store with vista under the arm, and lo and behold, before the warranty was up, I brought it back, asked for a refund (they were very
    unhappy, but could do nothing about it...guarantee allows it) and bought a used computer with xp on it....for both I and my dad, and this is not the only time I have heard the same thing (others I know at work).

    Your analogy is wrong, sticking a STUPID label on the consumer, is not the way to go, they WILL rebel against what they think is crap. They WONT always take it up the arse, and M$ can go back to the drawing board (as any other company who made mistakes) and start over!

  7. Re:Surely the US military is dumb enough.. on Significant Russian Attack On US Military Networks · · Score: 3, Informative

    Easy to keep the military systems safe, don't plug them into the internet...that way people all the way from Russia wont be able to hack them if there is no access....it would only be something from within, and this we already have a budget for, not need more money for it as a separate expenditure

  8. Re:R U f*cking serious? on Computer For a Child? · · Score: 1

    I think you miss the point, if you read the stastistics of how obese the US has become, do you think it has anything to do with all the xbox, ps3, nintendo gameboys, pcs , movies, tv .... regardless of how the kid might be smart, until he realises his parents are dweebs that prefer not exerting effort taking time to learn their sons life at school, being interactive in their lives, instead of using the tv as a babysitter, and the rest..... this is what I am saying, the kid is 2....change his diapers, bring him to the mall, let him see the sites, before you plunk him down behind a computer for the next 10 years, only to come up for air, after he finished his elfquests, or conquered his warcrafts...it sad most people do not see this as mental abuse, ...it becomes a sickness a brainwashing almost....sure the kid COULD do his own thing, but the fact remains that his parents didn't place enough emphasis on activity, so the son does not impart into his routine daily activities that make him more aware of exercise.

    I would prefer hearing where can I bring my son to go rock climbing at the age of 2....would that not make you think ...."is he f*cking serious"......oh wait....NOW you get it! :P

  9. R U f*cking serious? on Computer For a Child? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    HE IS 2 YEARS OLD FOR F*CK SAKES, THIS I WHAT'S WRONG WITH PARENTING TODAY...TV AND MACHINES DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PROPER CARE, NOR XBOX, NOR PS3.

    He is 2 , he needs to learn to walk, even read if you can get him to understand letters.
    I had taught my niece to count and do the alphabet phonetically by the age of 2. She may not
    have known what it is, but by 3...letter association went very quickly, and by 3...could actually know what letters were which if you held out the letter, no matter which letter it was...by 4..she was
    already writing her name, and understanding that letters make up whole words. In kindergarden, she was the first to read and write...I am sure it was not because we plunked down in front of a screen.

    Sure, a kid can pop in a cd or dvd and watch his movie, or play his game at age of 3...but
    the advantage comes at too great a loss, how many kids can't write or read properly for that matter.
    Signatures are handwritten , yet I see so many people just use block letters to sign for something thinking that this is a signature, there is no association to writing skills any longer.

    As well, how much vocabulary is being lost because kids of today, are strikingly going towards less is more, where abbreviations for everything seem to exist....lol,rofl,gtg,brb,owm, etc.. etc.
    I am sorry for being too blunt about it, but kids should be outside playing being active, not becoming obese, in front of the screen learning to hack their parents credit cards, etc.

  13. Let's be clear here. on 90% of Gaming Addiction Patients Not Addicted · · Score: 1

    You are an addict if your life revolves around something enough that your life suffers,
    your friends do not want to be in contact any longer, you family thinks you are wasting away,
    you have trouble getting yourself proper nutrition, you fail in your responsibilities
    AND THIS IS NOT USUALLY YOUR NORMAL BEHAVIOR.

    There are some that fall under this rule, without being an addict, but those, there is nothing you can do for. I agree if you are socially more accepted in the game, it is a bit pathetic, but having
    my on WoW account, at lvl 73 I rest assured that whenever I need to do something around the house, I do it. I would rather be playing WoW...but I can easily tell you, I would never leave a baby in bathwater, and forget about it (as per a story I read somewhere on the web...too lazy for a link)

    Ok...90% are not addicted, but there exists still that 10% which is!

    say a few hundred thousand years, have sustainable life because of that humidity condensed from boiling effect....however a slow burn would just evaporate slowly the water, never to give it enough "activity" to produce evolving life, and therefor be worse off in the long run, this is not something they teach you on wiki or in school.

    maybe the distance to the sun makes a diff...either it shields from the solar winds, or maybe the sun's flares actually destroy any solar wind, or even yet, the fact that there is heat from the sun at that temperature ...cooks the solar winds to change its make up once it reaches earth so that it is not as devastating???
