  1. Re:Online Magazines are hard to read on Next Generation Magazine Returns · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Let's say you a have a laptop with a wlan card built in or whatever. You have a wireless network in your home. That gives you access on the bathroom, at the breakfast and even in bed.
    I'm not sure about the trains though but wherever there's WiFi, you can access onlinr magazines.

  2. Not soon, now. on Firefox 1.1 Plans Native SVG Support · · Score: 1
    With such a useful web developer feature available only in Firefox, could we soon start seeing websites asking their users to download Firefox to get the best browsing experience?
    I'm pretty sure there's a lot of websites doing that already...
  3. Re:your math fu is weak on Snails Edge Out ADSL · · Score: 1

    Yes, and this also requires a sysadmin somwhere to sit, constantly on watch for people wanting to download stuff so they can burn and attach DVD's to snail. I doubt it's very cost efficient.

  4. Re:gamecube version? on We Love Katamari · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't think Gamecube but possibly Revolution.

  5. Nicely done! on French Courts Ban DRM on DVDs · · Score: 1

    I think this is a good step on the process to beat the simple fact that DRM is a fundamentally bad idea into the skulls of the greedy movie corporations.

  6. Re:Graphical Ads on Google Upgrades AdSense · · Score: 1

    I rather enjoy the text-ads actually.

  7. Re:cruise ship pool? on Opera CEO Prepares to Swim across the Atlantic · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't want to do any of those, the water in the Atlantic is pretty damn cold.

  8. Geek pr0n on Playboy on Playstation Portable · · Score: 1
    "We know that many Playboy fans are also gaming enthusiasts who are likely to buy this type of device, so it was a natural progression for us to design this," said John. D. Thomas, editor of Playboy.com, in a statement.
    What? Geeks like pr0n?
  9. Re:LEDs are definitely becoming more powerful on LED Evolution Could Spell The End For Bulbs · · Score: 1

    I don't know if you have them but I spotted a lot of blue light-coils (or whatever they're called) around christmas and you could not focus on them at all. Even if you try they're still blurry.

  10. Re:Developing countries? on The House Building Machine · · Score: 1
    Can it make coffee from cow dung?
    I doubt anyone would want to drink coffee made from cow dung...
  11. Re:Sponges are our friends, not plants on Top 10 Evolutionary Adaptations · · Score: 1
    And fish are our friends, not food. I like them fried, steamed, etc.
    You fry and steam your friends?
  12. Re:Alyx is alive? on Half-Life 2 - Aftermath · · Score: 1

    Perhaps they should rename it to HL2: Tits & Ass edition?

  13. Re:Who cares about Aftermath... on Half-Life 2 - Aftermath · · Score: 2, Informative
    ...and total lack of Anti-Cheat that they have had so far...
    Perhaps you haven't been reading the update news but they're testing the new version out and it'll be out pretty soon, banning cheaters just the way we like it.
  14. Re:How's it spoken (probably) on Mandrakesoft Changes Name to Mandriva · · Score: 1

    I fail to see any other way to pronounce it, but then again, English is not my main language.

  15. Re:eek on Games That Shoot Back · · Score: 1

    I prefer to use headphones at LAN and stuff. At home I use my 5.1 setup. But a good thing would be to check if your mouse cord is wrapped around the volume knob before you play. (How'd you manage to do that anyway?)

  16. Re:Steroids on NNSA Supercomputer Breaks Computing Record · · Score: 1

    Was the banned substances by any chance Skynet in liquid form?

  17. Re:So.. on Gates' Resolve in Bringing Spammers to Justice · · Score: 1

    But nonetheless, whatever his intentions may be it helps. Right?

  18. Re:The best way to get rid of spam is... on Gates' Resolve in Bringing Spammers to Justice · · Score: 1

    I don't type my e-mail everwhere which does some good but I make use of SpamAssassin and some potent spam filters aswell. Works great for me.

  19. Weed on Burn Grass, Get Green Biofuel · · Score: 1

    What about weed? Can I smok....er...burn that too?

  20. Re:I wish I would of known the release date.... on Gentoo 2005.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Thank you for that information. English is not my first language but I do my best.

  21. Re:I wish I would of known the release date.... on Gentoo 2005.0 Released · · Score: 1

    I just realised that I don't have to re-download it...

  22. I wish I would of known the release date.... on Gentoo 2005.0 Released · · Score: 1

    ...because I just downloaded 2004.3 yesterday.

  23. Illegal downloading? on First Swede Prosecuted For File Sharing · · Score: 2, Interesting

    A person can not get persecuted for downloading a file, because it's not illegal. Sharing that file on the other hand is.

  24. Re:If it were up to me... on Microsoft Fails to Comply With EU Requirements · · Score: 1
    ...I would force MS to make Office for Linux, WMP for Linux, IE for Linux.

    I agree. Allthough I would rather have Office for Linux and then have Microsoft open up their media formats, make them properly GPL, their media player is not that great, I prefer all the good media players that exist on Linux already. IE can stay with Windows as far as I'm concerned, the number of users that use it aswell because it attracts more spyware because of it's majority of users. Firefox is pretty safe but if spyware and adware authors would target Firefox, they would find a way to distribute their crap to the Firefox users aswell.
    The fanboys seem to have made their statement to what you said already: "Hahaha...".
  25. Re:why dont you respond to my point on Buying DRM-Free Songs From the ITMS · · Score: 1

    Why would anyone who is too lazy to burn music to a cd program software that bypasses the DRM addition when simply burning to a cd is a lot easier? Your claim does not make any sense.

    Besides, I don't think it's right that greedy music companies keep you from using music that you've legally purchased, where ever you want. By simply burning music with DRM to a cd, you won't. If you want to you can burn them to a cd, rip them and then burn them again and then you'll be able to play it where ever you want to, but at the cost of lowered quality.

    I don't think is fair at all.
