  1. Re:Another advantage of nukes on New Nuclear Power Plants in the next 5 years · · Score: 1

    Wow, I think I have seen there database somewhere....

  2. Re:Serenity probably not profitable on Slashback: Google, China, Network Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Trust the economist to turn this into a downer for everyone.

    Just go home and play with your little calculator buddy, nobody wants to hear you.

    ha, ha, ha, just kidding, you are great, really!

  3. Re:Don't forget... on Fedora's OpenGL Composite Desktop · · Score: 1

    You do realise that the letter A has no curves??

  4. Re:movie industry list $5.4bn? on Film Studios Sue Samsung Over DVD players · · Score: 1

    It is more like assume that every person in the US copies at least one DVD a year - dvd cost $20 - total cost 270,000,000 x 20 = 5.4 billion.

    there is logic for ya...

  5. Re:For as long as Governments .. on CIA Secretly Reclassifying Documents · · Score: 1

    Come on, now you are being ridicuous. There is a difference between giving the choice on who to vote for, and having the power to actually make changes in a democracy. Tell me, which would remove the CIA, voting rep or dem?? Neither, and these are the only real choices. (ie. choices of voting that might actually change the government in power) That, my friend, is a real grade AAAAA+++ fallacy.

  6. Re:It makes little sense on Sony To Bundle UMDs With DVDs · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and people with no eyes, even less sense to them.

    Really good point.

  7. Re:Bullshit study on When Does Maturity Set In? · · Score: 1

    My experience is that everybody is sad, just some people don't realise that they are sad. I find that it is my role in life to go and inform those happy but sad people how they really feel.

  8. Re:Possible Look of iPhone on iCell in the Works? · · Score: 1

    I reckon this one is better: http://www.applele.com/pict_05iphone_r02.html Looks just like an ipod, until you slide it out to reveal the keypad - brilliant.

  9. Re:who cares? on High-tech Cars Replacing Driver Skill? · · Score: 1

    I agree with this completely. Most people have no idea how bad a driver they are. Even my sister who is really bad, almost killed me twice while i was in her car considers herself an OK driver. BTW I know that I am a horrendous driver, so I stay away from driving cars.

  10. Re:At last on Sony Reader Taking Hold? · · Score: 1

    I don't have to struggle with forcing open a book that has printing running to within 3mm of the spine.

    What are you a t-rex, with little tiny arms? Surely you can not be so weak as to have difficulty holding a book open.

  11. Re:In other news... on Google Acquires 5% of AOL · · Score: 1

    So only in hell and the USA do the use Fahrenheit to measure temperature - makes sense to me!

    anyway, coincidence that Google announced they will start supporting graphical adverts? I think not.

  12. Re:Responsibility on eBay Slammed Over Levels of Fraud · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I wish they had prices on the feedback screen - then you could see how useless some feedback really is.

  13. Re:A Deal With FOX? on Apple Adds New TV Shows To iTunes · · Score: 1

    agreed. check out curb your enthusiasm as well.

    (sorry about no caps, typing while holding the computer up to the window, at 11:30 pm stealing free wifi in paris, but not waking anyone else up)

  14. Re:see....... on Xbox 360 Very Unstable · · Score: 1

    Nah, that is because you are a cheap bastard!

  15. Re:That would be suicidal on Did Apple Sabotage the ROKR? · · Score: 1

    I agree with this, makes a lot of sense.

    Did you know that the L7 doesn't have a headphone socket... I am guessing that they will release it with bluetooth headphones - another possibly controversial move.

  16. Re:This doesn't mean it never happened. on Archimedes Death Ray in San Francisco · · Score: 1

    Therefore, every little myth and fable is true.

    Brilliant!

  17. Re:Not exactly surprising on Reviews Arrive For nVidia GeForce 6600GT AGP · · Score: 1

    Surely Bandwidth is more important for a video card. Doesn't the CPU just pump data at the video card. I can understand that things are a bit more complex, these days, but I thought that the driver would predict what the video card needs, and just send it in.

    Apologies if this sounds like nonsense

  18. Re:Toms sticking to its guns on Reviews Arrive For nVidia GeForce 6600GT AGP · · Score: 1

    Surely they have a script to automatically do this.

    How many words per page?? 15

  19. Re:the bearer of bad news on Firefox News Roundup · · Score: 1

    The ability to just load up Opera and continue where I was from, if it crashes, is the most important point for me. If I need to reboot, I just close it down, reboot, starter up, and the 30 different pages I was viewing are right there.

    Also I find the closed button indespensible. If you think nothing could be added to a browsed, this button stores the pages you have just closed. Useful if you just accidently closed a page.

    Opera 7.23

  20. Re:LEDs for Barbie house? on DIY LED-Illuminated Sleep Chamber · · Score: 1

    Beware: By the time you finish building it, your daughter will probably have moved on to something else. It was the same way with my neice, now she is into Mary-Kate and Ashley dolls. Can't see a big difference myself, but it is not my place to question.

  21. Re:Still an Opera user... on Opera Facing Losses While Firefox Usage Grows · · Score: 1

    No way, Firefox would have to do a lot, and I don't see it heading in that direction. It is been primed to replace IE, and I believe that Opera has a different market, the more computer savvy person. There are so many options, I can't use firefox because I have been spoiled. Even something as simple as having all images download, none, or some...

  22. Re:Piracy in China on Nintendo's Lawsuits Aided by Fans · · Score: 1

    They can make is cheaper, because they don't have to pay developement costs, and for other IP.

    They can make it smaller, and prettier because they can design it using new products out now, rather than having to stick to a design created years ago.

  23. Re:Catch 22 on Microsoft Says Firefox Not a Threat to IE · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You do realise that slashdot is made up of a bunch of distinct people, each with their own opinions and beliefs?? How the hell did you get moderated up??

    And what the heck, I use opera too, only use firefox to access gmail, and don't even really need it for that now.

  24. This is the one I am waiting for... on Half-Life 2 Street Date · · Score: 1

    This is really the game that I have been waiting for. The screenshots not only look good, but seem to have a great atmosphere, with great attention to detail. It is riding on the coattails of HalfLife 1, which had incredibly immersive play, and was a good game to back to.

    Yeah, you can have your Halo 2s and your GTAs, this one is for me!

  25. Re:Saw it last night... on A Review of "The Incredibles" · · Score: 1

    I appreciate you comparing it to Spider Man 2. I find it completely wasteful for someone to just write that they really enjoyed the movie, without mentioning other movies that they enjoyed. Just because someone enjoyed the movie means nothing, you need to know what sort of movies that person likes.
