  1. Status Quo on T-Mobile Bans Others' Apps On Their Phones · · Score: 1

    Does the average consumer really care? People don't use T-Mobile because they like cutting edge phone apps or Catherine Zeta-Jones. They use it because it's cheap, and it's not (insert lowest-of-the-low carrier name here. Around here, it's MetroPCS).

  2. Re:Regardless on MySpace and GoDaddy Shut Down Security Site · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I thought about that, but TFA does say "host"

  3. Regardless on MySpace and GoDaddy Shut Down Security Site · · Score: 1

    If you really want to be able to depend on your data being there, host it yourself. Or, for christ's sake, if you need a bigger pipe, use a more reliable host than GoDaddy.

  4. The other guy. on Is it Time for Open Office? · · Score: 1

    If I'm going to be a guinea pig, I'd rather be Google's (Do I even need to add the link...?)

  5. Bah. on Firefox 3 Plans and IE8 Speculation · · Score: 2, Insightful

    As a web designer, I'm automatically dismissive of this. Browser makers working and agreeing on the way CSS should look and act is way more important than new features.

  6. AllofMP3 forgot to add... on RIAA Goes for the Max Against AllofMP3 · · Score: 1

    P.S.

    Fuck off.

  7. Unfortunately.. on What's Hidden Under Greenland's Ice? · · Score: 1

    ...it's probably oil.

  8. Re:OT but... on US Bans Sales of iPods To North Korea · · Score: 2, Funny

    Actually, I'm pretty the Caddy down the street was paid for by selling even more illicit luxury items to those privileged neighborhoods.

  9. OT but... on US Bans Sales of iPods To North Korea · · Score: 1

    Mercedes, BMW and Cadillac cars; Japanese and Harley Davidson motorcycles; Hennessy XO cognac from France and Johnny Walker Scotch whisky; Sony cameras and Japanese air conditioners."Who knew KJI was so ghettofab'. I live down the street from a project full of people who are 'suppose' to be cut off from all the same luxury items, yet they always seem to be to have them.

  10. Re:network? on PlayStation 3 Unveiled · · Score: 1

    So...... it has DHCP support too? Definitely Skynet compatible....

  11. network? on PlayStation 3 Unveiled · · Score: 1

    Can someone explain to me the reason for 3 ethernet ports?

  12. Budget on MS Calls On Kids to Stop Thought Thieves · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Ok, can someone explain to me how "kids" are suppose to make a "film" on IP rights with legally purchased software? As a small-time film maker, I can attest to the fact that creative software is EX-FUCKING-PENSIVE (not to mention, most enteries will probably be made on a Mac). It's all a little counter-productive to me.

  13. Re:Microsoft Propaganda Art on MS Calls On Kids to Stop Thought Thieves · · Score: 1
    Seeing stock photos like that in high-budget marketing moves makes me want to smash my teeth out with a large rock.

    Also, FIRED!

  14. art on MS Calls On Kids to Stop Thought Thieves · · Score: 2, Insightful
    God damn, that is the weakest poster I have ever seen. With a monster budget like that, they could have at least hired a REAL graphic designer.

    Just because that one in-house guy says he knows Photoshop, doesn't mean he knows good taste.

    FIRED!

  15. girls girls girls on Firefox Promo Videos · · Score: 1

    I'm sure it doesn't hurt that 2 of the 3 feature hotties.

  16. Re:Google the next Microsoft? on Google Acquires Dodgeball · · Score: 1
    That's a big negative, sir.

    Google only buys technologies that have some element of 'search/organization' involved with them, or at least, ones that help to futher these functions.

    Microsoft buys all technologies.... and lots of them.

  17. The cure on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    ...And then 10,000 /. readers found out they had Asperger's... dun, Dun, DUH! I think the cure for this is cocaine. eh, EH?!

  18. Re: whoa, WHOA on Red Hat/Apache Slower Than Windows Server 2003? · · Score: 1
    OK, I'm not even a Linux hardcore, but I can you a few things:

    As MAC OS X USER (already you hate me) -where the hell do you get off talking about video editing, printing, desktop publishing and, OF ALL THINGS HOLY, UI (I think this covers the lot of it)?! Oh wait! The part about hacking is good too!

    If I may be granted the graciousness of smoothly transitioning into the subject: The big three pro-sumer OSs (Windows, OS X, and Linux) form the symbiosis between business, creative, and cutting edge tech -respectively. Don't dis'!

    Shizzz, 'talk about being a "looser"

  19. PPC for me on Fedora Core 4 Test 2 Released · · Score: 1

    Can someone who knows more than me (probably 99% of /. users) tell me more about PPC support? i.e., Does this test support dual-booting FC4 and OSX?
