  1. Re:Only one defense needed. on Home Defense, Geek Style? · · Score: 1

    If you'd read what you replied to, you'd have learned that's not the case. It is, however, a debatable issue.

  2. Re:Best line in the article... on Do You Thrive or Crack Under Pressure? · · Score: 0

    It is friday and my head hurts, and I'm in high school. The stresswork that you can't get out of.

    Not that I'm complaining, of course... I know the workplace is far more stressful. I mean, what would I do if all I had to do on break time is post on Slashdot!? (Sarcasm is not directed at parent)

  3. Re:Huh what? on New Overtime Rules Have Short Shelf Life · · Score: 1

    First one's a noun, second's a verb. Odd, yes, but it works out. The rest of that sentence isn't very clear, basically its saying they want to veto it if it contains "any language tampering with..."

  4. Re:iTunes on Microsoft Creates Static With New Webcast Feature · · Score: 1

    iTunes has a little option for internet radio... its free stuff, and most of it is on Shoutcast. They're just adding the little browser like Winamp also does. They're not doing any broadcasting.

  5. Re:51%+49% on Broadband Majority in US · · Score: 1

    Yes, its interesting, which category do they put ISDN in (a stab at what you could have =))?

  6. Re:College on Broadband Majority in US · · Score: 1

    Not if you use any kind of web-based email. Ever clicked through Hotmail or Yahoo? You spend a good half the time loading banners. Three (non-exclusive) choices: wait, have a fast connection that doesn't care, or block the ads. People don't like waiting, and lots of people don't know how to block ads (or use IE and can't) I realize you're probably commenting in jest, but I found a need to correct it =)

  7. Re:How? on Broadband Majority in US · · Score: 1

    I'm 30-45 mins west of Boston, and my town (as well as the ones around it) are both cable and DSL-enabled, with multiple options for each... Are you east or west of Worcester?

  8. Re:The funny thing is... on MMOG Subscription Analysis Provides New Insights · · Score: 1

    MMORPGs have more female players than pretty much any other genre of game. Everquest included. I'm not basing this on mere interactions with people (what would the point of them telling me they were female be, anyway? That's beside the point, but the data personally supports it) I've seen articles showing this. Don't start bashing without some facts.

  9. Re:How much memory? on New Disposable Digital Cameras with LCDs · · Score: 1, Informative

    128M. From the last link.

  10. Re:Even Sevens on Analysis of Spyware · · Score: 1

    The problem is, the general public doesn't have a very positive view of 'vigilante' operations like that. Don't get me wrong, it could work, but I think the chances of its success are about 1 in 50, if it even gets off the ground.
    This is because most of the idiots who enforce the rules would get trigger happy and try to get something against the involved parties here. You'd need to have a significant supporter base so that authorities wouldn't want to mess with you.

  11. Re:Redstone History on Canadian Team To Launch X-Prize Attempt Oct. 2 · · Score: 1

    Why not just focus on making things essential to preservation of the pilot extremely redundant, and have a lower level of redundancy for everything else? The priority should be keeping him alive, not keeping to the schedule... ...In my opinion.

  12. Re:Man, if they win on Canadian Team To Launch X-Prize Attempt Oct. 2 · · Score: 1

    Its not the majority of Americans who voted Bush in. He lost the popular vote. Now stop making broad generalizations. Leads to "ethnic cleansing."

  13. Re:And WPM is any better? on Is Typing a Necessary Skill? · · Score: 1

    In typing programs, a word is just five characters. Though I can't remember if it includes the space or not, I think it doesn't.

  14. Re:Personally, I would go one step further. on Game with God · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Here's a short inequality statement to help solve your problems.

    Religion is not only Christianity.

    And I don't think the Christian community needs any of that. I have plenty of Christian friends who are perfectly satisfied with the way things stand. The only reason they don't go out and buy DOOM3 is because their hardware can't handle it. You don't need a game to portray Christianity, that's what people go to church for.

  15. Re:Correction on Stargate Atlantis Tomorrow · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not to grammar nazi's

    Now, since you're just begging to be grammatically corrected, the word should be "Nazis." Its a proper noun, and is plural, not possessive. =P (And yeah, you also forgot a period.) All in good fun =)
