  11. Re:This movie is bad on Hitchhiker's Guide Reviewed · · Score: 2, Funny

    Under NO circumstances can you compaire this to Battlefield earth. You were either smoking, drinking, or just went in with your judgement already made. While I will admit it wasn't as funny as it COULD have been, saying it's like BFE is like saying Linux is like Windows.

  12. hope... on Third Parties Already Taking Advantage of Tiger · · Score: 0

    they don't use "Tiger" in the name. TigerDirect will have to file lawsuites with all them either now or the day before the company releases their product....

    "Apparently judges have found that law enforcement is unbelievably perfect as they rubber-stamped approvals on every single request they received." Lol, or they just do what our county police do. Wait till three or four am and call a judge, telling them how VITAL it is that they have this right now or these horrible horrible people will get away. Lol, they will sign about anything.

  14. this is... on Apple Sued over Tiger, Injunction Sought · · Score: 1

    My uncle runs a small medical company. I do most of their PC and Networking. After informing my uncle that his car make wasn't a good password, I informed him of using a random passwords for his transactions and records. He agreed and I went back in to fix a problem a few months later and found that file on his desktop. NOT_MY_COMPUTER_AND_INTERNET_PASSWORDS.txt I just looked at him thinking this was a joke. He said he couldn't remember all the random words and letter so now he just opened that up and copied and pasted what he needed. I thanked god my father was adopted into this family.

  20. Come on we all know..... on Fat Geeks Healthier Than You Thought · · Score: 1

    That being over weight, monitor radiation, bullets, speaking out against Microsoft, and years and years of drinking soda isn't what kills people....It's a proven fact that DEATH kills people, little piece of lead or whatever aint the problem.
