  1. Piloting on Mass Effect 2 Announced For Early 2010 · · Score: 1

    Would love to be able to pilot the ship.

    Maybe some turret missions would be great, asteroid dodging too.

    And would like more choice when it comes to planetary drops, the mako got boring.
    would like planets you finished quests on to be revisited and maybe more quest done for that planet.

  2. Are you affected on Breach Exposes 19,000 Active US, UK Credit Cards · · Score: 1

    in order to check if you are affected or not, please reply with your card number and security code on the back of your card. [/joke]

  3. Apple on Intel CPU Privilege Escalation Exploit · · Score: 1

    Does this mean Apples are vulnerable?

  4. Re:Obvious user question on Google's Amazing Browser Experiments · · Score: 1

    obviously business software should be written in a simple html and activated for more advanced use when it is compatible, that's what css is there for.

    Unfortunately some "HR software" developers have no idea about web standards.

  5. Re:In Ancient Times on Google's Information On DMCA Takedown Abuse · · Score: 1

    You would need to get you hands on the original parchment to avoid copyright suits.

    then you would have a copyright on that copy.

    i suppose the original parchments would cost millions.
    or you could find one that is old enough to not be copyright to "arrange".

    or just copywrite that "arrangements" yourself and say you copied the original work.

  6. SDK on What Features Should Be Included With iPhone 3.0? · · Score: 1

    How about an SDK that works for Linux or Windows!!

    A linux SDK would be ideal, because anyone with non-apple hardware can run it, and if they really want to develop for iphone they would install linux first or in a vm.

  7. Re:HDR? Depth channel? Optical SVG? on What to Fight Over After Megapixels? · · Score: 1

    You could do this with a little bit of user interaction. The user would just have to paint onto the touchscreen with the stylus to mark the areas to blend together.

  8. Work from home on Are Quirky Developers Brilliant Or Dangerous? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    wouldn't he be more producetive if he worked from home?

    You now have a performance benchmark, due to him having previous work done in the office.

  9. Narrow minded HR on Linux Gaining Strength In Downturn · · Score: 1

    Wait till they try and hire staff for this Linux whim!!

  10. Seed on Morality of Throttling a Local ISP? · · Score: 1

    save a load of traffic by seeding whatever you legally can on your on servers, then throttle whatever is no seedable. maybe have your own tracker.

  11. Re:What about my business model? on UK ISPs Could Be Forced To Block Or Restrict P2P · · Score: 1

    P2P is threatening the RIAA's distribution model, whether legally or illegally. with the advent of P2P every band can individually distribute their music without need for the RIAA, this scares them.

    It has nothing to do with the legality.

    Imagine you distributed your music and nobody gave you a penny for leeching the music, that would still mean you had listeners and potential fans, then you could make money from venues at some point.

    Giving your music in the early stages can be a catalyst for fan growth.

    find out some demographics, email addresses, you can then gather the nearest fans in a venue if you get a positive response.

  12. Re:Python on Symbian Introduces Open Source Release Plan · · Score: 1

    Yes they could make a transplantable layer first then move it to such technology.

  13. Python on Symbian Introduces Open Source Release Plan · · Score: 1

    Why not convert the phone stack to python equivalents, and when everything is ready, change the kernel.

  14. Gym Station on How the Economy Is Changing Clean Energy · · Score: 1

    I heard of a Gym that would save X% on energy bills due to the floors having peizos, and maybe the resistance on the bikes having dynamos. Could that be trialed on a greater scale?

  15. oled on MacBook Modded With Second Monitor Inside Logo · · Score: 1, Interesting

    i'm it must be an oled screen! they should be hired by mac (i'm sure that's what the stunt is for)

  16. linux zealot tearaways in france must be thinking on French Police Save Millions Switching To Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    Damn you internet explorer + sessions!!

  19. Silicon Mirror on Young People Prefer "Sizzle Sounds" of MP3 Format · · Score: 1

    Why don't we point a huge silicon based mirror crafted from the moon itself, from the moon. onto those peices of debris?

  20. No thank you on Human Exoskeletons Getting Closer · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm perfectly happy with my endoskeleton as it is thank you!!

    Oh i can have both! didn't RTFA.

  21. What anoys me on Quick Boot Linux Hopes To Win Over Windows Users · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    What anoys me the most is booting Linux and I am forced to fsck my drives. could that not be done at shutdown when im not in a such a rush?

  22. Missed a few on 9 Browsers Compared For Speed and Features · · Score: 1

    What about Konqueror, kazehakase and midori.

  23. Could be the opposite on New Startup Hopes to Push Open Source Pharmaceuticals · · Score: 1

    Don't opensource drugs exist already, aren't they called generics?

    Some company could develop DRM'd drugs that check the colour of the box they are in.

    If its plain white, you're screwed.

  24. Re:Why are clamshell handhelds now "netbooks"? on New Netbook Offers Detachable Tablet · · Score: 1

    psion, apparently. i think it was the series 7.

  25. Rescue Fund on Analyzing Microsoft's Linux Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Would the companies behind opensource tech be able to stand against msft if they pooled some cash to help tom tom with the legal cost of sticking up for itself instead of settling?
