  1. Re:Apple's .Mac offering on Online Backup Solutions? · · Score: 0

    It works; I stopped using it a long time ago due to size limitations. My guess is our good friend Steve doesn't want to sell it off, and sense some people are willing to pay extra money to have a pretty apple sticker on there they won't get rid of it. But I seriously doubt they are picking up many new customers.

    My guess is the future for consumers is external hard drives and DVD-R; enterprises will have remote servers and giant tape backups like they always have. The internet was never made for storage.

  2. Re:I got a 1 on Rate Your IM Popularity · · Score: 0

    My cell got a 1 beat that! The only Buddy list that has that name on it is. Granted the reason I have it is b/c I don't always want to talk to people! So I succeded in being unpopular...on AIM

  3. Re:Here's a cruel joke... on Top 10 Web Fads · · Score: 3, Funny

    If you leave the Badgers running long enough they get out of sinc with the sound. How do I know? I locked my dorm door, opened the windows, cranked up the stereo left the badgers running for 3 hours. They even tried turning off the power to that part of the dorm, but my UPS kept the badger alive and..."badgering" until I came back.

  4. A 40 for our fallen shipmates on Star Trek's Scotty Dies at 85 · · Score: 0

    Tonight everyone should beam the contents of a 40 on to the curb of your local Starport for our hommie Scotty.

  5. Third-Party-Advertiser Space.com on Fox to Purchase Myspace · · Score: 0

    Since social sites especially, bandwidth intensive ones, such as MySpace are barely able to make any money in there own right. Sooner or later they will sell out to some larger company. Fox hasn't gained a profitable entity in the current MySpace business model, they have gained a giant pool of consumers who have listed out everything they like and dislike from sport, to music, to business. Fox will figure out some way to get there $26 dollars per user out of MySpace. Social sites present a huge potential for marketing. This will probably give Fox a huge leg up in there future marketing towards young people. Don't be too surprised if once they have harvested all the pop culture crap they can stand, they will sell it off and it will become a useless pay site.

  6. Re: Everyday Low Prices! on How the ESRB Rates Games · · Score: 0

    Wal-Mart has Low Prices but high Morale standards; they are based out of Arkansas for Sam's sake.

  7. Violence for Children on How the ESRB Rates Games · · Score: 0

    It is always comforting that the Video Game industry started a group to make parents feel safe in a system that still lets a 5 year old buy Grand Theft Auto. I really wish the liqour companies had figured this one of these systems when I was in High School.

  8. Re:Taco must have one of these... on Sharp's Double-View LCD TV · · Score: 0

    It is called a polorizer, every LCD has them, some just are thicker to prevent wide angle viewing.

  9. Kids will be Kids on Sharp's Double-View LCD TV · · Score: 0

    This will keep the kids from fighting over the TV, my house will be eerily silent...besides two TV channels sound at full blast.

  10. Long live Buzzwords death to English on Attack of the Corporate Weasel Words · · Score: 0

    These phrases though lacking any real content do give the illusion that you know what you are talking about and is about the only way I got through college. If you have any doubts about this, check this freakishly well "buzzed" proposal generator. http://www.monzy.org/surg/

  11. Fusion for bad guys on France Will Be Home To Fusion Plant · · Score: -1, Troll

    By the time France actaully make Fusion viable, they will probably have already lost another war and be occupied. Can we really deal with China getting there hands on this?

  12. Re:Nice on `Bionic' Arm Brings Back Sense of Touch · · Score: 5, Funny

    lineman for a Tennessee power company, Sullivan in 2001 grabbed a high-tension wire carrying 7,400 volts of electricity, which incinerated his arms. If his 12V arms shorted I don't think it would even phase this guy.

  13. In the future... on The Onion in 2056 · · Score: 5, Funny

    In 50 years I plan to take my news in some sort of pill form. All the benifits of an RSS feed with a fruit(possibly onion) aftertaste.

  14. Outsourced on Adopt a [Chinese] Blog · · Score: 3, Funny

    You can't outsource to the US. That just dosn't mesh with the United States' plan for global domination.

    Holy Drag Queen Batman! It goes so well with our tights. -Robin

    Most hippies are dirty hippies; wouldn't they be the first ones to benefit from stain protection.
