  1. Re:How times have changed... on Nuke-Proof Bunker Turns Out Not Waterproof · · Score: 1

    Tranquilizers? Umm... That could be a lot of things. Wiki links to Sedative's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tranquilizers. They didn't have all the fancy new SSRI drugs that we have today. So it was more probably something good. Our drugs are way watered down compared to what they used to use. Like our .25mg dose of Xanax? (WTF is that gonna do?) Can we say placebo effect? Anyways, you wouldn't want to swallow these pills, they're way expired.

    Try to look at as it as, at least Sony is losing money by going to court.

  3. Re:Obvious on Why are Websites Still Forcing People to Use IE? · · Score: 1

    No, No, it's because the developer is a dumbass and can't possible read up on xhtml standards and code then to them. (read: lazy)

  4. Re:PINE + PortaPuTTY + Thumb Drive on Gmail vs Pine · · Score: 1

    If only it was that simple. What happens if the network you plug that thumb drive in doesn't allow executables to be ran from a thumb drive? Or what if on port 80 is unblocked? Your solution would require me to carry something around with me. Gmail doesn't not my friend!

  5. Microsoft embrace RSS? on Interview with Microsoft Exec on IE7 and RSS · · Score: 1

    Looking SharePoint Server I see zero integration with RSS. Neither by creating feeds or allowing SharePoint to consume feeds. This makes SharePoint in my organization worthless. I know SharePoint wasn't a talking point but I see SharePoint becoming the new FrontPage in the Office 12 lineup.

  6. Re:Why would you leave home to do this? on Cringely on Blockbuster-iPod Video Distro Plan · · Score: 1

    NOT TO MENTION THAT.... Once I sync my iPod to something new it erases all of the current content to put the new content on. What an idiot, why would Apple need Blockbuster?

  7. You're the dumby on Early Puberty Often More Hazardous · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    They're not implying that you might have sex at a younger age but might draw older youths attention and open themselves up to being exploited. Do a search for Justin Berry. HAHA fucking faggot.

  9. Re:Cumbersome on Windows Live goes Local · · Score: 4, Interesting

    OK, why would I use this instead of Google again?

    Let's compare a basic query from Google to MSN Lives.

    http://local.google.com/maps?q=hospitals+near+stoc kton,+ca&hl=en
    http://local.live.com/default.aspx?v=2&ss=hospital s&cp=37.953792~-121.290691&style=h&lvl=11&sp=aN.34 .143119_-77.915445_road%20lake..%20make%20up%20you r%20mind_

    First off, Google's URL is MUCH shorter for permalink.

    But the real guts to this query is in the results.

    As you can see Google returns much cleaner, relative results and has more results too. Not to mention a COLORED MAP that is UP TO DATE.

    Live doesn't even have my house built on their map and that was back in 1996.

    This data is especially meaningful to me because a few weeks ago I got a call from a nurse that my Mom had had a heartattack and the hospital was St. something but thanks to Cingulars wonderful reception I couldn't make out what the lady said.

    Luckily, I had Google Local and it returned the right hospital almost instantly and allowed me to get in contact with the nurse again to find out that she was going to be alright.

    Now, looking for the nearest Pizza Hut isn't that big of a deal but when somebodies life is involved, I wouldn't trust any other search provider.

  10. Re:Flash based? on Google Launches Web Traffic Analysis Service · · Score: 1

    Umm last time I checked more people had flash installed then Internet Explorer. With a 98% userbase I imagine if you don't have flash you need to step into this century and do an update.

    I think Google should buy TiVo... I think they will..
