    Canada day?? Is that real or are you just joking?

  2. Re:how I lost respect for soldiers on Pentagon Monitors War Videos Online · · Score: 1

    I cannot believe this ignorant statement was mod'd up. What you said is like saying "I lost significan respect for black people, when I found a out some are selling crack". Making ignorant statement about a large group of people, because of the actions of a few hmmm what does that sound like?? The military is like any other group of people in that their are bad apples. also how would you have any idea how discipline is in the military, and what is or is not tolerated?

    if you only open one tab, not so much. but I like having 15 tabs open, and I have a gig of ram, so who cares?

    drunken blogging is a fun habbit of mine, and my readership went up after I started posting the drunk blogs

  5. Re:Blown in half on Suspended Animation Tests Successful · · Score: 1

    I can't speak for any soldier beside myself, I could care less. The army has ramped up classes for "Combat Lifesaving" which is essentially teaching guys like me how to be first responders, and I don't even feel comfortable with that (If I have to give someone an I.V it's going to be a bad day for them) , my morale isn't based off whats going to happen to me when I get shot up, it's based on thinking I will kill the other guy before he shoots me.

  6. This is driving my crazy on Voice Phishing Hits PayPal · · Score: 1

    The first time I encountered phishing is before it even had a name, and It was retarded obvious, and Not even a good attempt. After that, I was very hesitant with anything of that sort, then phishing became more widespread, got a name etc, so I made a simple rule for myself. Never ever respond to or click on anything, or call any number given to, that asks me for anything I wouldn't Tell any stranger I met on the street. Ever. I Have all the numbers and websites for all my financial information, and other companies I do business with. I will go to them directly If I ever have any question. This Seem to 100% eliminate any kind of phishing ever, so Why is this thing still an issue? Why is this not the general rule for every person??? and why is phishing still a problem??

  8. Re:Myspace is bullshit. Sorry. on The Man Behind MySpace · · Score: 1

    I hear ya on your knocks on myspace, but thats more of a knock on people who are like "Woo look at all the pretty colors" and use some of those generic myspace code websites. There is a setting however, to disable all music on myspace webpages, goto account settings, privacy settings, it's in there. Personally I do my best to let the people with "overachieving" myspace pages they need to tone it down. but myspace is just a necessary evil.

  9. Re:Stupidity in action on U.S. Joins Hollywood in War on Piracy · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I know you really meant the War on drugs. The War on terror? Abstract Idea? I guess those were abstract nobodies killed in the WTC. Must have been abstract fucking nobodies killed in the pentagon. What an ignorant fucking statement. Terrorists actively plan and plot to come to america and kill innocent americans. We find them and stop them. Nothing fucking abstract about that. The War on drugs, yea that is a useless concept just like the war on piracy.

    thanks for the heads up on that article. It's been something i've always wondered about, I can't believe I never came across that information before.

  12. How about the 3800+ X2??? Motherboard prices? on Core Duo Reaches the Desktop · · Score: 3, Informative

    This is a $300 processor, that with a $100 motherboard can hit 2.5GHZ without any effort. Not only that but it's proven, and the motherboard it uses are prooven and have been put through the paces. This Core Duo 2GHZ Cpu is $420, and no one knows much about overclocking with the available motherboards. Only ones on newegg are $150 and micro atx (and in my experience these types of boards do not overclock well. This is comparing apples and oranges. Simple fact, my 3800 X2 using Sandra's bench's outbenches every Intel CPU except the $1000 EE Edition. and it's damn close on that.

  14. Re:Pfffft on A Kilowatt of Power · · Score: 1

    I hate P4 Space heaters as much as the next guy, but throwing AMD into the same sentence is not right. With their power saving technology and inherent performance per watt, the amd64 CPU is not in anyway shape or form, a furnace. Anyways, 20 watts, even a SFF or mac mini uses more then 20 watts,

  18. Re:US Gov is wrong on this one on U.S. Insists On Keeping Control Of Internet · · Score: 1

    There is no good reason for the internet to remain US governed? How about the fact that it was created by the US government, for the specific purpose of allowing communication in the off chance a nuclear war broke out, The simple fact is the US owns the internet, they made it, and if another country has a problem with it, they can create their own massive network, and wait 30-40 years for it to mature. Besides, look what the UN did with the oil for food programs, I personally wouldn't trust the UN with a fucking goldfish.

  19. Re:Beware Large Externals on Portable Storage Guide · · Score: 1

    I concur, I bought a little eide=>usb adapter for my 160GB driver, one time I was copying something, as soon as it said done, I pulled the usb plug. Bam, fuck you, no more hard drive. I even used Ontrack Easy Recovery, and could only recover files without the file system intact (I.E some files, no file names, VERY messy).

  23. Overrated subject? on Silent 500W Power Supply · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I understand how the proliferation of the p4 and its space heater specs created a bit of a backlash against the modern computer and its exponential power requirements & noise generation, but I think it's gone overboard. Who doesn't have some kind of background noise on the computer be it, a movie, or mp3 playing. How really big is the market for absolute silence, beyond media pc's, where high power requirements shouldn't exist.
