    Ehhh, should have logged in first. Hope I'm still in time :-P

  4. Re:I remember seeing this ad... on Microsoft Found Guilty of Misleading Advertising · · Score: 1

    The ad is not just stupid by itself, it also shows how MS thinks of it customers: so stupid that they will believe everything MS tells.

    The sad thing is, they're right.

  5. Re:What about 5001? on Distributed Proofreaders Posts 5,000th E-book · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Your 500th shit this month? Have you got some kind of medical problem?

  6. Re:Not all small coloring mistakes were recalled on How 8 Pixels Cost Microsoft Millions · · Score: 1

    So far as I can remember, 95 blue-screened more than anything else has since.

  7. Re:Should be interesting on Turbine Starts The Spin For Middle-Earth Online · · Score: 0

    If you look at Tolkiens books then you see that there is mostly no character development for the heros.
    Ehh...yeah, that's right. Aragorn stays exactly the same all of the way through the books. Not to mention some others.

  8. Re:Had it on my desktop,... on Composite Of Earth At Night · · Score: 1

    The light/darkness boundary is called the terminator.

  9. Re:Fun fun fun! on ATITD2 Early Impressions · · Score: 1

    Ahhhh!!! Noooo! The wood will forever respawn and take over the world!

    Way to go! Let's bring handguns onto the airplane for terrorists to use!

  11. Re:Its not a conspiracy on Your Right to Travel Anonymously: Not Dead Yet · · Score: 1

    "I know /.ers tend to believe there is a conspiracy behind every bush"

    Maybe not behind every "bush", but certainly behind every Bush!

  12. Re:Petty on U.S. Cancels Fusion Program · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Isn't beaurocracy fun?

  13. I want... on Wireless Community Summit Tackles Digital Divide · · Score: 2, Funny

    to live in the middle of that WI-FI network. Then I wouldn't be stuck on a dial-up!

  14. Re:The Privacy Jihad on Privacy Concerns Moving Into The Mainstream · · Score: 1

    Wow. I got modded both insightful and a troll! What talent! :-P

  15. Re:The Privacy Jihad on Privacy Concerns Moving Into The Mainstream · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "They want to shackle law enforcement in the name of privacy"

    As it should be. Most Western countries are part of "The Free World", not police states. Supposedly.

  16. Re:BBC on Privacy Concerns Moving Into The Mainstream · · Score: 1

    Well, they're a government-owned (or whatever the proper term is), so it could be said that them taking the anti-authoritarian stance is slightly ironic.

  17. Re:Perks? on Are Job Perks Coming into Vogue Again? · · Score: 1

    The best perk would be somewhere the job is enjoyable and the company is an employee-friendly one to work for.

    Wow. I've found it!! :-P

    Ah, so the US army invaded Afghanistan and Iraq to keep in practice! That explains everything!

  19. Re:Is the processor clock rate trend coming to an on AMD and Intel Update CPU Roadmaps · · Score: 1

    I fail to see how the index of refraction affects current technology at all...at least, not until photons are actually used to transmit information.

  20. Re:heat and faster speeds ... on AMD and Intel Update CPU Roadmaps · · Score: 1

    There are good reasons for having a round wafer, pity I can't quite remember any of them :-\
    Possibly something with the way the light goes through the mask or something :-P

  21. Re:Yawn... on AMD and Intel Update CPU Roadmaps · · Score: 1

    How easy it is to say stuff like that...

    But of course, if they had loads of Pentium 3s etc running at the same clock speed, there would come a point when there was nothing more to be got out of that processor. More R&D is always good.

  22. Radio Show on Hitchhiker's Guide Trailer Online · · Score: 1

    This will more than likely be better than the movie. *waits impatiently for September*

  23. Re:Already there are bugs on Microsoft Plans News Aggregator · · Score: 1

  25. Re:SETI Predicts? Erm, no. on SETI Predicts We'll Find ETs by 2020 · · Score: 1

    Oh, I agree with you. The chances of SETI (or anything else) actually ever finding something are slim, with current technology.
