  1. Re:What's the name of that movie? on Bollywood New Releases Available via Video-On-Demand · · Score: 1

    Disney recycles someone else's stories. Bollywood grows its own crop of stories and after harvest distributes the seeds among members of its own village. They repeat the process.

    No, they have 4 seasons, and the weather is generally consistent with the season. The morons in Bollywood have been living in their fantasy world for so long that you will rarely find movies that reflect real-life accurately. Even when they steal Hollywood movies, they add some "masala" to perk it up the Indian level. If you would like to see some good movies, I can recommend a director called Ram Gopal Verma, though he is bitten by the Bollywood bug too...

    Bollywood is reputed for recycling age-old storylines. Almost 5,000 movies exist with the same storyline you mentioned. Can you give more details, like the looks of the actress, the landlord, the dresses they wore etc.? Dresses, dance sequences, and locations often change from movie to movie and are seldom copied by directors

  4. Re:Give up the Adminis-traitor account on Spam and Spyware Too Much for Some Users · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I am surprised at how many windows users browse the web (among other things) while logged in with administrator priviliges. If you want to use IE for browsing, better run it with limited priviliges. I can understand why some people may choose IE over netscape/mozilla -- I use a 400 Mhz machine to surf the net and IE loads and runs way faster than firefox. I even had firefox crash on me many times (enormous swapping, 99% CPU use sometimes for unknown reasons). But I don't end up with as much spyware as other users because I never use the administrator account for doing daily stuff. Also, using firefox over IE will not make things better for you if you already have adware/spyware that downloads and installs other programs from the net. The first advise I always give to spyware-striken users is "Get off the Administrator" (ok, pun intented)...

    Dude, marijuana smokers don't always get jail. What you said is an overstatement.

  6. Not breaking news on Google's 20-Year Usenet Timeline · · Score: 1

    I'm very sure Google posted this page very long time ago -- I remember seeing it a couple of months after Google acquired Deja. Its not breaking news IMHO.
