  1. Sun Online... on The Simpsons Come to Life · · Score: 1

    They suck, they have a type-o in their story...who does that?!

    "but becuase you can easily identify with them."

  2. Sheesh on Mozilla Announces Extend Firefox Contest Winners · · Score: 0

    Two of the grand prize winners extensions are like the same damn thing! They are both stupid ways to generate pictures of your open tabs...BIG DEAL!!

  3. Dang. on NBC To Live Stream Olympics Event · · Score: 1

    DRM means that I won't be able to watch it in Linux, right? I hate DRM.

  4. I wonder on Teenager Wins Email Suit Against City of Kokomo · · Score: 3, Funny

    I wonder if this is enough of a joy for the Beach Boys to sing about it?

  5. A bit off topic... on Going Dynamic with PHP · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    But how come the New York PHP Conference logo looks just the like CDPHP's logo?

  6. Re:Why universities and schools are not Linux on Korea Plans to Choose Linux City, University · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Exactly, at my university, students who are Computer Science majors are taught how to use Linux in the first few weeks of our Introduction to Computer Science I course. It's not like Linux == Rocket Science...

  7. I have had good luck. on Cedega 5.1 Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    I have Cedega 4.1 and got Steam working in it (before they changed the skin) and Anarchy Online. I didn't even need to do anything; just fired up cedega and ran the executable.

  8. Damn. on Oracle Acquires Sleepycat · · Score: 4, Interesting

    What a bad reason to lay off their employees. I can't believe that they bought another company...

  9. What? on Phishing Site Using Valid SSL Certificates · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Did people honestly think that their techniques were going to get worse rather than better?

  10. I can see it now... on Microsoft to Replace Blackberry? · · Score: 4, Funny

    They will be called "Blueberries." Not because they won't want to be associated with Blackberry, but because of the constant flow of error screens.

  11. Does anyone know? on MythTV 0.19 Released · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know of a good PCMCIA TV Tuner card that is Linux compatible? I have been looking for one for a while and can't seem to find any.

  12. Great on Microsoft Helps Makers Defend Against IP Suits · · Score: 1

    Those people better be prepared to start paying out their rears now.

  13. Wow on Oracle to buy JBoss (and others) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    They lay people off to buy JBoss.

  14. O_O on EFF Warns Not to Use Google Desktop · · Score: 1

    Big Google Is Watching Your Files!

  15. Double the Distance? on Coming Soon, Super Vision · · Score: 1

    "Theoretically, this should be able to double the distance that a person can see clearly."

    I don't get it; eventually things get so small (distance wise) that you can't see them anymore anyway...

  16. Re:Noise cancelling headset on Headphones in Corporate Culture? · · Score: 1

    Those aren't exactly in the $30-99 range... Those go for about $300.

  17. I'll be sure not to... on HOWTO, Cook an Egg With Your Cell Phone · · Score: 1

    ...talk to someone near me with a cell-phone. I don't need my brain to start frying like this egg; my brain cells are precious.

  18. And so it begins. on Operation 'Cyber Storm' Starts Tomorrow · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now that Cyberdyne has been established, I wonder how much longer it will be until SkyNet is initialized?

  19. Requirements on Centrino Duo, Buy or Wait? · · Score: 5, Informative

    According to Microsoft, you will need around the following:

    System Requirements:

    Minimum system requirements will not be known until summer 2006 at the earliest. However, these guidelines provide useful estimates:

    512 megabytes (MB) or more of RAM

    A dedicated graphics card with DirectX® 9.0 support

    A modern, Intel Pentium- or AMD Athlon-based PC.

    So, I am guessing that a Centrino will fly.

  20. StarForce? on Ubisoft to Distribute RE4 For PC · · Score: 0

    How does StarForce protection work?

  21. Linux on The Optimus Mini Keyboard · · Score: 0

    I have this bad feeling inside that this will only work in Windows...

  22. Yay! on IE 7.0 Beta 2 Available to the Public · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Time to infect my computer!

  23. You don't need to... on Poor Spelling Beats Google's China Filter · · Score: 0

    ...even spell it wrong, you just need to capitalize the first letter and you go from happy gardens to tanks.

  24. Standards on The Future is XHTML 2.0 · · Score: 0

    I wonder when this is going to be released. Most browsers are having a hard time with (X)HTML as it is right now, and now XHTML 2.0... It will probably take years to get browsers to support it properly (looks at IE + CSS). Oh well.

  25. Wow on MacWorld's iMac Core Duo Benchmarks Debunked? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    This is good to know.
