  1. Re:Help needed. on Play PS3 Title flOw Right Now · · Score: 0

    It's really just luck, try pulling back away from the worm and then storming in right behind his head. If you're lucky, his mouth will hit a spot on your body that's already been eaten or won't hit you at all and you can take away another dot off his back.

  2. Re:i'm not addicted to the internet... on Thrust from Microwaves - The Relativity Drive · · Score: 0

    Either you really wanted to get that off your chest or you're looking at the wrong article...

  3. Re:The moment they... on Apple's Moment — Consumers Want To Download To TV · · Score: 0

    I still get Walker occasionally, I think on TBS... Anyways, it turns out all those rumors on WoW are true. Within the first few nimutes I was watching, Chuck Norris used a jetpack to fly to the top of a builing and rounhouse kick someone in the face. How AWESOME is that?

  4. Re:why would HE be reprimanded? on The Internet Not for Old People · · Score: 0

    I'm SURE this guy was just lazy. No way his aunt could have died earlier that week, no way he could have just gotten in a wreck on the way to work, no WAY he could have just gotten dumped, or any other of the millions of things that can make your day shit, and make you not wanna lug around a massive box for some pissy-pants customer who is plainly able to do it himself while you need some time to think things over. When all the stores are run by robots, you can bitch and moan, but until then, please remember we're ALL human.

  5. Re:Hmmm... lets see on Firefox 2.0 Beta 2 Arrives · · Score: 0

    " Resuming your browsing session

    Pure genius. How did they invented that?

    Inline spell checking

    Dot'n need thtat! Ohh.. and everything for the great price of... 675 Mb in memory when 7 tabs are open simultaniously!"

    ...You're being sarcastic, right? Please, for the love of all that is good, you MUST be kidding! If not, than you may not think you need it, but get it anyways for the rest of us who still like reading English without needing to read everything twice to decipher the horrid grammar.

  6. Re:Unless it's your Ox being Gored on Children Arrested, DNA Tested for Playing in a Tree? · · Score: 0

    I'm sorry if you got confused, but I'm pretty sure nobody here was trying to imply that it was harmless. But DNA testing? A trip to the police department? Simply seeing a cop walking towards me would get the point across and never make me want to touch a tree again. Maybe even a fine to the kids parents, to pay for the damages and make sure they got a good home punishment as well. And this wasn't even intentfully malicious vandalism, they were trying to BUILD something, which I'm sure in their eyes was an improvement. You're correct, this doesn't make it right, but there is such a thing as cruel and unusual punishment, and this certainly qualifies.

  7. Re:Dumb dumb dumb... on Knock Some Commands Into Your Laptop · · Score: 0

    Laugh at mouse gestures? Hardly. I use them quite a lot in Firefox, it's excellent for browsing because my hands are rarely on the keyboard. All my favorite sites start open, and all I need to do to switch tabs etc. is right-click + a direction. But I really don't see nudging a laptop being very useful, unless you have to hold down a button to use it (which would be pointless, might as well use key combos if so).

  8. Re:ah well... on Google Acquires 5% of AOL · · Score: 0

    Come, now, don't be so hasty. Plenty of good things have come from AOL. Well, OK, two that I can think of. But Winamp and AIM (after it's ad-hacked) show that good things CAN come from AOL.

  9. Re:from the-dupe-dept. on Microsoft Ends IE on the Mac · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I, for one, welcome our new amnesiac overlords.

  10. Many hours my ass. on Charges Against High School Hackers Dropped · · Score: 1

    "The district has incurred many hours of technician time in returning the misused laptops to their original images. This additional time meant additional technician hours and less technology coordinator time spent in high school classrooms and in the other five district buildings." Many hours? Maybe 2 hours of staring at a little bar to reach one side of the screen, but total bullshit nonetheless. Did they write down all the binary of the image and tap it in bit by bit?
