  1. Re:Use of Moz on Planning For Mozilla 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Doesn't help, though, since I wouldn't do this unless it had IMAP functionality. I access from different computers and want them all to be able to access my mail. Sure, I guess I could pop them and leave a copy on the server but that's too much work for my lazy ass. :)

  2. Use of Moz on Planning For Mozilla 2.0 · · Score: 4, Informative
    Personally, I use Mozilla a lot less now that I have a Gmail account. With having a web-based e-mail service, I really have little use for a bundled email client.

    Plus, Firefox seems quicker and more stable to me since I have been using both.

  3. Re:Not as dumb as you think... on iPod Shuffle, Mac Mini, iLife '05, iWork · · Score: 1

    As a fellow runner, I can say that this would be nice. Also, the armband ought to be included. I see why they didnt do that though...all about being able to sell it for less than $100....

  4. Re:One of my pet peeves on World of Warcraft Shatters Sales Records · · Score: 1
    when people use a * without qualifying what the * means, now I am going to go crazy trying to figure it out!

    You could always try following the article link...

    But, shhhh, don't tell anyone. It will be our little secret...BUHAHAHA

  5. Re:Why is this news? on World of Warcraft Shatters Sales Records · · Score: 1
    It outsold and shattered all records in a rather new game genre..?

    Because this means that it beat Everquest (and all subsequent clones), which is a fucking HUGE success.

  6. Call me jaded, but... on World of Warcraft Shatters Sales Records · · Score: 1, Funny
    Step 1: Develop solid game idea and use the namesake to start a franchise
    Step 2: Bring online to introduce monthly fee
    Step 3: Profit

    Yes, I know I am supposed to have a "???" in there...

  7. Re:Oh My! on From DM6 to Park City: Machinima at Sundance · · Score: 1
    Oh my! If this keeps up, in a few years people will think games themselves are a legitimate artform! ;-) Hooray!

    Nah, we all know they just incite violence and laziness in children.

  8. Lines? on Linux Powers Wireless Mesh Music System · · Score: 4, Funny
    based on secure peer-to-peer wireless mesh networking technology

    What? It's longer than 15 lines? BLOATWARE!!!!1

  9. Huh on Sims 2 Hacks Spread Like Viruses · · Score: 0, Troll

    I thought this was an EA game, not a Microsoft game...

  10. Re:Ffs... on Mobile Users Plug-in Anywhere They Can · · Score: 1
    Buy a better phone, then.

    3 hours of talk time is actually normal for a modern phone, if not exhibitng good battery life. As always, if he wants to complain he ought to buy the extended battery, but that is a whole other story.

  11. Batteries on Mobile Users Plug-in Anywhere They Can · · Score: 1
    Make a battery for a laptop that lasts longer than 2 hrs and then leeching might slow...

    (Centrino, Macs are better yadda yadda I know)

  12. Re:YES on Joel Gives College Advice For Programmers · · Score: 2, Funny
    Seriosly, bad communication skills generate huge costs in lost time

    So do spelling errors... :)

  13. Re:What does this say about... on HardOCP Declares Win vs. Infinium Labs · · Score: 1
    ...the pockets of Infinium? Surely a "company" that's preparing to "release" a new "game system" should have enough "money" in the bank to fight a legal battle like this.

    Maybe this is exactly the point of this stunt. Since they couldn't find any suckers with the capital they needed, they decided to go the "legal" route.

  14. Re:Back Pack on A Pizza Box for Your Laptop · · Score: 3, Funny
    I carry mine in a non-descript back pack rather than an obvious laptop case that has DELL written all over it.

    Or you could leave it in the DELL box. That would keep any informed thieves away. :)

  15. Election on Blog reading up 58% in U.S. · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This stat is likely influenced by the massive numbers that went out and read political blogs during election time. I can't remember hearing about blogs on Hardball or Crossfire in 2000...

  16. Strange on Blog reading up 58% in U.S. · · Score: 1
    Personally, this, along with the phenomenon of people reading others' AIM away messages, seems like a new type of internet "voyeurism." You can "spy" into peoples' lives with total anonymity, yet it is people themselves that make this information available.

    Seems to encourage a hands-off type of socialization, while separating people by yet another degree doesn't it? I mean, how many people have others on their buddy lists just to "check away messages"?

  17. If the virus goes senile... on Net Worm Uses Google to Spread · · Score: 3, Funny

    it can always use Google Suggest to find victims. :)

  18. Re:TOP SOFTWARE... on Some Ways To Avoid Spam On Gmail · · Score: 1

    No, I think you mean, "t0p s0f+warE!, r0kzy" or "Are the pain levels high?" Fucking spam...

  19. Re:Gotta love Walmart... on Walmart Offers Sub-$500 laptop With Linspire · · Score: 2, Insightful

    As South Park so eloquently pointed out... :)

  20. Contrast on Walmart Offers Sub-$500 laptop With Linspire · · Score: 1


    Seems to be a stark contrast to what WalMart can really do. They buy in such great volumes, you'd think they could negotiate a price/feautre point that would make it more appealing to the masses. Guess they are just testing the (ingorance of) the waters...

  21. Hmmm... on New Technology for the Blind? · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    Are we just not looking at the right places, or do blind-friendly resources tend to be Microsoft-centric?

    I am not sure about the blind and the deaf, but the dumb sure seem to gravitate towards MS products. :)

  22. Re:Funny on Reviewing Anti-Spam Offerings · · Score: 1

    @work = using IE. Thanks. I do use FF at home.

  24. Re:The Best Defense... on Reviewing Anti-Spam Offerings · · Score: 1

    Likely because you have a tough email address to "guess." Your suggestion does not apply if you have an email address like {CommonWord}@gmail.com. You will get spammed a good amount, as I do, even if you are CAREFUL with your email address.

  25. Funny on Reviewing Anti-Spam Offerings · · Score: 1

    Funny how when you click the link to go to the article, the popup invites you to register for their spam^H^H^H^H newsletter. :)
