  1. Re:Shocking... on iPods to be Used as Flight Data Recorders · · Score: 0

    It depends on how much protection is installed. If a black box can survive a crash, them I'm sure an iPod inside of a black box will do just fine.

    However if it is a government sponsored crash....

  2. Well, it's a start. on Samsung Announces Zero Dead Pixel Policy · · Score: 0
    By Samsung stepping up to the plate with this new policy, it should push the other companies for higher quality pieces in order to compete.

    I've had decent luck with all my LCDs. I've bought more than five-all from different companies-and have never had any problems.

  3. I could have told you that. on Inside TechTV/G4 · · Score: 0
    It wasn't that hard to figure out. G4 had prescripted events on all their shows, so why not TSS now that that are part of it.

    What's bad is that they had to resort to getting family members, friends and employees to call.

    Oh well, what are you gonna do?

  4. Usenet is still it. on Exeem "Successor" to Suprnova Announced · · Score: 0

    With all these new groups getting shut down like this, newsgroups still seem to remain the safe way to get stuff.

  5. Are we really suprised? on 3 New Windows Security Problems Found · · Score: 1, Interesting
    I mean, the effect has worn off. Before it was like "OMG another securty flaw."

    Now it's just like "Meh".

  6. Why? It's a movie on Updated LOTR Nitpicker's Guide · · Score: 0

    Nitpickers, just watch the movie like your supposed to. If you want to have book accuracy read the book.

  7. It's coming from Gamespot, what do you expect? on World of Warcraft Gamespot GOTY 2004 · · Score: 0
    Honestly. It's a good game, but Half Life 2 deserves the award.

    Oh, it's coming from Gamespot. Can't blame them too much then.

  8. Does anyone really care anymore? on New Spoofing Vulnerability in IE · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Just use Firefox and you're not affected.

  9. Didn't this happen already? on U.S. Military To Create Its Own Internet · · Score: 0

    Didn't we do this already? Called it something like...DARPANET?

    I'm not suprised that microsoft is in on it.

  10. Let the fanboys emerge.. on Halo 2 Reviews · · Score: 0

    Can't wait for the:

    "OMG Halu 2 iz s0 pwn u!!!!!lol!!!"

    I'd really like to just wait for the PC version, but since that won't be for close to two years.....gonna have to get the Xbox.

  11. Wow, now I have something to do at college... on Classic Gaming with Zelda Homebrew · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I'll have to download this to my iBook when I get home, looks like it could be worth some time

    I wonder what Nintendo Corp will say about it?

  12. I laugh at the ignorance.... on DDoS Extortion Attempts On the Rise · · Score: 0

    *caugh* script kiddies *caugh*

  13. What a whiny little baby on Jef Raskin On The Mac · · Score: 0

    It would seem he is just pissed about Apples succes, and him not being there. What a whiny little baby, I bet he uses AOL.

  14. Hmmm..... on Mac OS X Panther On A 25MHz Centris 650 · · Score: 0

    Well, its certainly interesting. I can't imagine trying to download porn.

  15. Steve Jobs is laughing... on Hip-e All-In-One PC · · Score: 0

    Honestly, he even says he got the idea from a iMac. Come on, why not just buy your kid a iMac, instead of starting a whole new company, designing a new computer system, and praying to god that you don't go broke doing it.

    I believe they call this reinventing the wheel

  16. Bungie Seems Hot... on Bungie Speaks On Halo 2 Leak · · Score: 0

    Funny thing is, why hasn't anyone "leaked" a PAL version of HalfLife 2 Yet?

  17. Why is Intel Worried About this? on Intel Scraps Plan For 4 Ghz P4 Chip · · Score: 0

    Why do they keep increasing clockspeeds on 32 bit processors?
    A while ago I heard they were going to work on making them smaller, now I hear of 4 ghtz.
    They need to get in gear and start working on 64 bit, or at this rate, AMD might starting taking a bigger chunk in the industry.

  18. *waits for fanboys* on If Windows Came to PPC, Would You Switch? · · Score: 0

    All this topic is going to do (over a long period of time), is spark incessent flames. PowerPC = Mac X86 = Windows / Linux / Unix They both do their jobs well on both systems, so why change?

  19. Well it made it.......... on Halo 2 Ready to Ship · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    All this post has to say is: When will Half-Life 2 be here? Doom 3 has beat it to the shelves, Halo 2, Farcry..........there are a slew of other games that are topshelf. Can Valve really pull this off?

  20. Microsoft is starting to piss me off on Ballmer Says iPod Users are Thieves · · Score: 0

    How is it that they blame the parent company? Its not apples fault that end users put music, that they downloaded of p2p network, onto their iPods. And frankly apple shouldn't be concerned. Once that certain person purchases their iPod, brings it home and begins loading music, Apple has nothing to do with that. Just like Microsoft shouldn't be blamed [as hard as that is to say] for your average idiot end user who fucks up his machine because he clicked a .exe in his email. Thats not microsofts fault, but if Ballmer wants to say that about apple, why not about Microsoft? Oh thats right, he works for Microsoft. He should just blame all parent companys then, including himself. As most viruses that are prevailent are on Windows.
    Ballmer is an ass. Microsoft is angry because of the success of the ipod / itunes combonation.

  22. Hopefully Developers will catch on... on What's Your Favorite Open Source Game? · · Score: 0

    With Open Sourcing games....then again, crappy developers will then steal code and try to make their games good.

  24. This is Turning into Tomb Raider..... on Microsoft Delays Windows XP Service Pack 2 · · Score: 0, Offtopic
