  1. Screensaver? Autohide? on Recommendations for a 50" (or Larger) Display? · · Score: 1

    You could always use a screen saver, or the Auto hide feature on your task bar.....

  2. Re:Darko disturbing? on When Will Games Disturb Us? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, that's pretty disturbing too!

  3. Darko disturbing? on When Will Games Disturb Us? · · Score: 1

    The only thing that disturbs me about Donnie Darko is how overratted it is.....

  4. CD Filing Cabinet on Replacement for Jewel Cases? · · Score: 1

    I use a little filing cabinet type thing I picked up from a department store near where I live. There was a pretty wide variety of sizes and shapes. The one I have hold 100 CD's. Basically you file each CD into a number sleeve, then use the provided index to catalog what's contained with in. Easy to use, and far more efficient that stacks of CD cases.

  5. The Blame Game on Making the Most of IT support? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Most of the time problems I have with IT Support usually revolves around the blame game. No one ever wants to admit that they're the creator of the problem. If people, both IT Staff and Users would stop taking things so damn personally, and just find the problem and solve it. "No you did this", "No I didn't" crap, be professional adults, work together and fix the problem.

  6. Tool + Guitar Hero on Guitar Hero 2 Impressions Roundup · · Score: 0

    Tool like playing Guitar Hero as well, hopefully we might see a track from them on their as well. Having Primus on there is pretty damn cool. Fianlly a good reason to consider getting a PS2.
    Tool February Newsletter

  7. Bandits location on Married In Oblivion · · Score: 0

    Did the writer of this article actually check inside the ruins for the bandit. That's where I found them....

  8. Re:Pictures from the surface of Venus on ESA to Send Spacecraft to Venus · · Score: 0

    Thanks for the links, some great reading there!

  9. Re:snark of the day :) on New Star Wars TV Series Confirmed · · Score: 0

    Well regardless of how good/bad any of those shows were, none of them have the drawing power of Star Wars. Not even the Star Trek movies really came close to the kind of box office success Star Wars has had, and it would only be naturaly for TV producers to expect this same success to translate onto the small screen. Of course I think we all know that Science Fiction is not really the most successful genre on TV, and therefore, despite the drawing power of Star Wars, it still may struggle to reach 100 shows.

  10. Re:i hope you enjoy.. on Elder Scrolls Oblivion Gold · · Score: 0

    I don't know if you've ever been bush walking at all, but the last time I used a compass I had to think....

  11. Re:sounds good in theory... on Unlimited Legal Music Downloads for $3.95 a Month? · · Score: 0

    Labels taking only 90% of the profits! Ha, keep going higher..... It's a pretty absurd situation where the artist is probably the person who makes the least amount of money from their product....

  12. Fabrication on How Long to Crack an 'Encrypted' HD? · · Score: 0

    Yeah, I guess it takes time to fabricate all the evidence after they've unencrypted the hard drive, sifted through all the Porn, Illegal mp3's, etc.

  13. Re:Update? on Valve's Gabe Newell Speaks on Console Development · · Score: 0

    I didn't think you had to update it to play the game...Can't you just go into offline mode and play it as it is?

  14. LCD Games on Technology That You Loved from the 70/80/90's? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    What about all those cool little LCD Handheld games? The ones where you rescue falling babies from burning buildings, dodge oncoming cars and barrels.

    Sure there were only around 4 positions on each screen, but when I was a kid I can remember spending hours playing the damn things, constantly trying to break my own high score. (or that of my evil brother......)

  15. What about XUL and Javascript? on Best Language for Beginner Programmers? · · Score: 0

    I find that to be pretty easy, and fun to do as well, especially when writing simpl extensions for Firefox, etc. Not only that, but Javascript is very useful for use with webpages as well.

  16. Re:Not unless it's leaked on Sony May Delay PS3 Until 2007 · · Score: 0

    That's presuming of course that the PS3 console/games don't suck as well. Maybe it'll be the battle of whichever system sucks the least....

  17. One Bookmark on Web Developer's Handbook · · Score: -1, Troll

    http://www.google.com For all your Web Development needs!

  18. Loud and Annoying on Wi-Fi Coming on U.S. Domestic Flights · · Score: 0

    Actually, people have loud and annoying conversations on flight all the time, and it's got nothing to do with cell phones. Maybe airlines should consider ripping out vocal cords from passengers throats as they board..... Or maybe we should all grow up and learn to deal with it.

  19. Re:GTA 4 on GTA3 and Vice City now Online Multiplayer · · Score: 1

    I remember playing GTA1 over a modem with a mate of mine who lived only a couple of suburbs away. There wasn't much lag at all and it was pretty cool. It was also easy to set up. Both of us were pretty new to online gaming (and networking in general) and found it much easy to set up play via a modem in GTA than it was in Quake.
