  3. Re:Yawn... on TI Calculators Play Movies · · Score: 1

    It's playing at ~1/3 full framerate...

    If I'm not mistaken, the lobby scene was in bullet time, therefor it is slower.

  4. Dropped Packets? on Laser Surgery Goes Online · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I would imagine if some packets were lost, or lag? It is inevitable, would you really want to risk it with that?

  7. Re:Skeptical on Internet Explorer 7 To Be XP Only · · Score: 4, Insightful

    of course, there is the automatic windows update system, which will tell users to upgade, and they will do it.
    You could put an update called "TROJAN! DON"T INSTALL OMG!!",
    along with numerous confirmation messages, and users will still install it.

  8. Power Armer? on Power Armor For the Elderly · · Score: 1

    I don't trust old people with driving none-the-less built in computer suit.
    Please, think reasonably before making things in the future...

    14/f/cali
    You mean: 43/m/moms basement

  11. Misleading on Multiple-Target Hyperlinks for the Masses · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The article Title + Summary make it seem like this guy has used some new sort of mark up previously untapped. Not only has it been done but its just DHTML built into a Wiki like context. Come on, this isn't a site for little nifty hacks, its for news.

  12. Re:short guide on How the ESRB Rates Games · · Score: 1

    Boobies: OH MY GOD 25 AT LEAST WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN??????
    If they thought of the children they wouldn't rate it like that now would they? ;)

  13. Re:Multiple e-mail accounts and masking on Microsoft and Yahoo! Fight Spam - Sort Of · · Score: 1

    True, with and abondance of good, free, email there is no reason why anyone should have only one email address. And for those who do how do they expect to manage spam? Every site/newsletter/download they do a small amount of spam is almost expected. Having it all in just one email account makes it seem you are being spammed to hell. A lot of a little is nonetheless alot.

  14. To bad.. on Harry Potter's 'Half Blood Prince' Leaked · · Score: 5, Funny

    Its a real shame, there doesn't seem to be a bittorrent for physical objects...

  15. Re:The Guido Proposition on German Youth Convicted for Sasser Worm · · Score: 1

    sure beats the hell out of putting our taxes towards prisons anyway, could goto something usefull, like free porn

  16. Wife cost outweigh benefits on Municipal WiFi Costs Outweigh Benefits · · Score: 1

    Let me be the first to say no shit. As great as having internet everywhere would be, its also kinda useless.
    Most people are downtown to work or shop. Most jobs give access to internet from their desk and most people don't bring their laptop into Macy's. It's a good idea and all but it is not a nessecaty to the people. So for now let's just keep the free Wifi to the coffee shops eh?

  17. Re:Apache on Opera Embedding BitTorrent Client · · Score: 1

    Then no more slashdot effect
    Don't you worry, we'll find a way

  18. Re:Slavery sounds good on Creator of Sasser Worm Goes on Trial · · Score: 1

    While we're at it lets put him in a french maid outfit, with leather boots, a leather mask. We'll send him about the enterprise fixing poor souls computers whilst we watch. ok, now I'm putting way to much thought into this

  19. jeez... on Microsoft To Pay IBM In Antitrust Settlement · · Score: 1

    from the U.S. government's mid-1990s antitrust case against Microsoft

    Last time I check it was late 90's.
    It's amazing how news articles seem to get the most basic of details wrong.
    It's sad sometimes.

  20. You have to love it... on Hackers, Spelling, and Grammar? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Why is that everytime I find an awesome article someone always beats me to it!

  23. Re:Start with CEO on After College, What Type of Jobs Should One Seek? · · Score: 1

    Don't listen to him, CEO is WAY to low to start at, Chairman of the Board or Majority Stock owner is where you should start.

  24. Re:Engine Noise? on France and Japan Planning New Supersonic Jet · · Score: 1

    also partly right sonic boom is when an object moves past the speed of sound, the object is then going faster than it's sound waves , eventually some of its sound waves overlap other sound waves (the Dopler Effect)and caused constuctive interference making the sound waves have the amplitude of the two waves together which in the case of a plane creates a sonic boom. So the parentx2 was partly right, if the engine is quieter then when the sounds waves overlap their amplitude isn't has large

  25. Re:GPG on The Evil in E-Mail · · Score: 1
