  1. Re:Japanese Subways on Internet Not Really Dangerous For Kids After All · · Score: 1

    The sounds pretty assuring, especially after seeing videos of people being crammed into the tube carriages by uniformed personnel in the Tokyo Metro. I know I would be distressed in a situation like that.

  2. Re:Compare with XP on First Look At Windows 7 Beta 1 · · Score: 1

    Well I guess you've been lucky then, or perhaps careful. I've been less lucky and have had plenty of BSODs when running XP, so as far as I'm concerned, it's a valid source of worry.

  3. Re:Compare with XP on First Look At Windows 7 Beta 1 · · Score: 1

    As far as I'm concerned, Vista is better than XP in pretty much everything. The exception would be performance but that is barely noticable if you have up to date hardware. So if Windows 7 is better than Vista, I'm pretty much sold.
    And praising XP for its stability? Then you obviously haven't used an up to date version of Vista. I know I've experienced far less BSODs and the like with Vista, and that includes the ones I had during the shitty first period of Vista's lifetime.

  4. Comparison on What Carriers Don't Want You To Know About Texting · · Score: 1

    I live in Sweden, I pay 0.69kr SEK (~9 cent USD) for each text message I send, and every third month there is no charge att all for texting. The only requirement is that I use services for at least 49kr SEK (~$6 USD) every month.

    What's stopping you from creating a party of your own in your country? It has to start somewhere, why not with you?

  6. Telescopes, more than meets the eye! on Black Hole At Center of Milky Way Confirmed · · Score: 1

    "The BBC are reporting that a German team has confirmed the existence of a Black Hole at the center of the Milky Way. Astronomers tracked the movement of 28 stars circling the center of the Milky Way, using the 3.5m Starscream and the 8.2m Megatron (MGTRN) in Chile. Both are operated by the European Southern Observatory (Eso). The black hole is 397,820,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times heavier than an autobot, according to the paper in The Astrophysical Journal. According to Dr Robert Massey, of the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), the results suggest that galaxies form around giant black holes in the way that Optimus and Ultra Magnus forms into Omega Prime."

  7. What's next? on Australian Judge Rules Simpsons Cartoon Rip-off Is Child Porn · · Score: 1

    Oh for the love of... Why don't they just take the extra step and outlaw thinking about child porn. Wohoo, thought police!

    Who cares? Bigger breasts == Win!

  9. Re:I like violent music... on Video Games Linked To Child Aggression · · Score: 1

    Sounds like bullshit to me. I've been playing video games all my life, yet I've never been very aggresive or violent. I don't know, are the majority of the video game playing people aggressive? In my experience, most of the most aggressive people I know play a lot less games than my more timid friends.

    (These are mere personal observations.)

  10. Re:Better description on Giant Snake-Shaped Generators Could Capture Wave Power · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm not sure if it's my mind that is warped, but does that not very much look like a giant penis?

  11. Re:what a nonsense on Technology Leveling The Playing Field In Modern War · · Score: 1

    Actually, the Mongol Empire continued to grow for about a generation after Genghis death, so I wouldn't call it "right after he died".

  12. Re:It must be said on Anatomically Strange Dinosaur Vacuumed Up Food · · Score: 1

    I wish I had modpoints so I could mod you funny. Whoever modded this troll should be shot.

    Making money of jaywalking eh? I find your ideas intriguing and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

    I like to eat PIE.

  17. Re:Given that it dissolves in water... on Virtually Non-Stick Gum Created · · Score: 1

    Still, it means that they can spend less time on removing gum, and more on other areas. Seems like a win situation to me.

    Where did 600 million come from?

  19. Re:Misleading on The Potential of Geothermal Power · · Score: 1

    It's pronounced like it's written I would sayn but English is a very stupid language in the regard that everything is pronounced differently.

    For an English speaking person, if I'm not mistaken, it would sound like "Ray-kiaveek".

  20. Re:So more grind... on World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King Officially Announced · · Score: 1

    You are taking games way too seriously, man...

  21. Re:Yeah... Are they going to indemnify us? on Microsoft Pleads With Consumers to Adopt Vista Now · · Score: 0

    I don't play World of Warcraft, but a friend of mine does and has what I would think is a similar setup, but he has no problems at all running the game, so I'm not sure if blaming Vista is the right answer. I have running Vista for a few months now and so far I haven't found a reason to switch back to XP. Allthough that might be because my computer is high-end enough for me to not notice any major differences in performance.

  22. Re:Pedophilia jokes in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... on Voice Chat Can Really Kill the Mood · · Score: 4, Funny

    What? Why would the National Association of Marlon Brando Look Alikes do that? That makes no sense.

  23. Re:Who cares about XP and Vista? on StarCraft, Nothing But StarCraft · · Score: 2, Funny

    It runs on PCs without hassle and for the most part, it's free.
