  1. Re:Real shame... on China Going Up and Coming Down · · Score: 1, Informative

    Real shame? How about this: A country that was free at one point, was completely taken over by a monsterously large other country. Their government has been replaced, they have destroyed the geographical heart of Buddhism itself, by burning monestaries, taking prisoners, and executing the innocent. A region so rich in culture is now strangled by China for it's economic and natural resources. Sorry if this is a troll, but I think had Tibet been free from the beginning, they would have done what's right for their own country rather than have China handle everything, treat their people as lower lifeforms, and ruin what took millenia to create. Thank Mao.

  2. Bill Gates Goes to College! on Bill Gates Is Coming To A College Near You · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you think Bill Gates going to college is interesting, you might want to watch Bill Gates Goes to College, a movie staring BillG and Napoleon Dynamite, everyone's favorite antihero. Totally hilarious...

    Napoleon: "I've got like, computer hacking skills, probably the best I know of."

    Bill: "I don't think so."

    MS plugs aside, it's really great, and watching Napoleon pull a roller-skating Bill from his totally sweet bike is well worth it. Enjoy =D

  3. I wonder... on Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed · · Score: 1

    With all the movement involved with using it, I hope Nintendo plans on making it durable. I'm assuming that there are moving parts inside of it, and that means that they are capable of becoming broken. I'd hate to think of buying a new controller because it flew out of my hands when swinging it like a sword.

    But anyways, I applaud Nintendo for trying something new. This is their first endeavor in a long-while that I actually think is cool.

  4. So you're telling me on Blu Ray Drive Will Cost $100 Per PlayStation 3 · · Score: 4, Informative

    That I'm going to be paying even more than the $300 pricetag that was on the PS3 before this spec was released? That just makes me wonder why I'd even get one in the first place, especially with the performance statistics and upgradeability of current PCs. If you ask me, console gaming is pointless if you have a worthwhile PC. If the game isn't on the platform, run an architecture emulator. Like the controller? Buy an adapter. Consoles are a waste of money.

  5. Re:Let's get this over with on Chief Justice Rehnquist Dies at 80 · · Score: 1

    I don't think Ballmer would perform his duties faithfully... He'd just throw chairs and say "woooo!" at everyone in the courtroom.

  6. Creepy stuff on Denver Airport Automated Baggage System Abandoned · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Go ahead and Google Denver International Airport and look into some of the conspiracy-theories surrounding the building, murals, underground facilities, etc. It's pretty wierd stuff, interesting to say in the least.

    Whether or not it's true, I don't know. You decide.

  7. The solution is simple: on Only NFL Game This Year Gets Lukewarm Response · · Score: 0

    Stop forking over your hard-earned money to EA and play Tecmo Bowl for the NES (it was more fun anyways.) I refuse to play any Madden until they have that neat little song that plays during the kickoff.

  8. I normally don't comment, on Wisconsin Corpse Plant To Bloom Again · · Score: 1, Funny

    But wow, check out the mullet on the guy here! :)

  9. I wonder... on Improving the Windows XP User Interface? · · Score: 1

    Do they offer fluxbox for Windows? *snicker snicker*
