  1. Re:Link to the actual text of the patent in questi on Vonage Wins Permanent Stay in Verizon Case · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It seems that they have patented using a computer to store information and to facilitate a transaction.

  2. move along on The Hundred Million Mile Pipe Organ · · Score: 1

    ...nothing to see here. This is no replacement for a Tool concert.

  3. Re:I'm using an HPLJ II - unbelievable inexpensive on Is Your Printer Ripping You Off? · · Score: 1

    I have a 6 yo brother 1240... I am such a cheapass when the toner ran out I bought a refurb cartridge for 25$. Still printing!

  4. Re:Creationists on Chimps Evolved More Than Humans · · Score: 1

    And dentists. Humans now have the worst teeth in the animal kingdom thanks to food cooking technology.

  5. Re:I'm confused on Vonage Admits They Have No Workaround · · Score: 1

    Seems to me Verizon saw a business 'exploit' endangering their cash flow and created a patent to prevent it.

  6. Re:One word answer... on Can Web Apps Ever Truly Replace Desktop Apps? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The correct answer is 'web apps will replace desktop apps where appropriate'

  7. Nothing speical about hackers on The Myth of the Superhacker · · Score: 1, Troll

    You will find this sentiment about any type of criminal... they prepare for attacks like you would see in an action movie, but in reality most of the crimes are committed out of stupidity or drug influence.

  8. Re:a little anecdote... on Record Store Owners Blame RIAA For Destroying Music Industry · · Score: 1

    I have got a new model for you. Get rid of the bulky expensive case and put the cd into a thin sleeve. Sell the cd for 5$. The store can carry 10x the number of cds. Do you think they would get any business? I haven't bought a cd in years but if they were available like this I would start buying again.

  9. Re:a little anecdote... on Record Store Owners Blame RIAA For Destroying Music Industry · · Score: 1

    making a movie will never be cheap the way making an album is now. Sure, eventually the cost of film(or lack of) and editing will go way down, but the cost of locations, sets,support and costumes will always be high.

  10. Re:Just try to get through to Vonage Support now.. on The End for Vonage? · · Score: 1

    turn off your vonage thingy and your cable modem for 30s+ and restart it. I had the same problem today, first problem I ever had.

  11. Re:Thank God for Darknets... on Web Scanning Technology for Copyright Violations · · Score: 3, Interesting

    These jokers were trying to get us to sell their desktop search engine to our clients about 5 years ago. IMO they were pretty overstuffed and FOS. (how is that for buzzwords)
    I am surprised they survived the internet bubble (or lack of)

  12. Re:Who even still users WEP? on WEP Broken Even Worse · · Score: 1

    I have a cheap linksys and WPA-PSK does not seem to work properly, so I fall back to WEP

  13. Re:Congress member names on Daylight Saving Change Saved No Power · · Score: 1

    Fiasco? Nobody I know as negatively effected by this. I am thankful for the extra light after work.

  14. Re:Prior experience on Daylight Saving Change Saved No Power · · Score: 1

    I don't know about everyone else but I started taking my kids for a walk to the park after dinner.

  15. Re:What about SAFETY? on X Prize For a 100-MPG Car · · Score: 1

    In 2004 the ford 150 was completely redesigned. The reason trucks were unsafe is because they have a frame which does not allow them to crumple properly. This is not true any more.

  16. Re:Key concepts on X Prize For a 100-MPG Car · · Score: 1

    K is actually new to the German language, it is not found in traditional German words.

  17. Re:Breeders, reprocessing, thorium, no such things on The Coming Uranium Crisis · · Score: 1

    The DOE is funding a program with russia to burn plutonium/thorium.

  18. Put you tinfoil hats on on SCOTUS Case May End Sale Prices · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This will give branded stores (Old Navy) a huge advantage over stores that carry other manufacturers merchandise (Sears). The branded stores will have no problem at all clearing out old inventory, and Sears will get stuck with a bunch of unwanted stuff (not that they already are).

  19. Re:Questionable on SCOTUS Case May End Sale Prices · · Score: 1

    What are they going to do with merchandise they absolutely can't get rid of? Maybe it's out of fashion or there was a scandal about the product? They will have to write them off as shrinkage and throw them in the trash. Sounds like a recipe for higher prices to me.

  20. Re:Meanwhile, in the Land of False Dichotomies... on Google Perks Are Great, But They All Mean Business · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yes, there are two kinds of people! Those who must classify /. articles and those who don't.

  21. Re:Too many reasons for the fall on CD Music Sales Down 20% In Q1 2007 · · Score: 1

    If you haven't noticed already the economy isn't doing so well. CD sales are one of the first things to go.

  22. Re:Labels are bad news on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 1

    I think ADD is helped by heavy metal. It helps me concentrate by raising the threshold of things that could distract me.

  23. Re:Here's the abstract, for more information on New Hydrogen Storage Technique · · Score: 1

    Holy pyrophoricity Batman!

  24. Re:I Don't Buy It on Scientists Threatened For "Climate Denial" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Even if he is a POS shill for the fuel industry, does he deserve to have his life threatened? As an aside, I have seen way to many facets of weather lately blamed on global warming such as hurricanes. This is complete and utter bunk.

  25. Re:Anyone know anything about these? on Purdue Unveils a Tricorder · · Score: 1

    You forgot to mention that you need to separate the components of the mixture via gas chromatography. I am not sure how the proposed new detector will be any better other than being smaller and not needing a vacuum pump.
