  1. I'm using AT&T! on AT&T Forwarding All Internet Traffic to NSA? · · Score: 1

    Hey, guess what, this post is being sent to the NSA, anyone want to say a big F. U. or something?!

  2. Re:Let's just get this out of the way now on Google/Earthlink Wins San Francisco WiFi Deal · · Score: 1

    I was wondering who was paying to maintain these hotspots? I mean at some point they are going to weather, etc.

  3. Re:it's for all the idiots out there on The State of Web 2.0, The Future of Web Software · · Score: 1

    C'mon guys, it wasn't THAT bad! It was a joke!

  4. This is confusing.. on Prayer Does Not Help Heart Patients · · Score: 1

    Does this state that the heart patient actually prayed or someone prayed for them? I am a firm believer that your own laughter, prayer, and positive thinking DO in fact help. But if someone is praying for you I am not quite sure how that would necessarily help if you don't prayer yourself. You have to believe in the prayer FIRST.

  5. it's for all the idiots out there on The State of Web 2.0, The Future of Web Software · · Score: 0, Troll

    They just coin the phrase so the dumbass recruiters can have a buzzword when they recruit you. It's as bad as Java 2 or Java 5, etc being called 1.2 or 1.5. I had a recruiter ask me once if I knew Java 2.0. I was like.. umm there is no such thing. He's like, What is Java 2 then? I am like, some dumb thing Sun started.

  6. Re:It's a convenience to you... on Movie Downloads to Coincide with DVD release · · Score: 1
    Why the hell would anyone want to pay that kind of money for crippleware?

    You forget about the teens who spend mommy's and daddy's money and don't give a flying rats ass. I am sure that's what they are banking on.

  7. Acer model on Group Testing Widescreen LCD Monitors · · Score: 1

    I have the Acer 1916W and for $300 I think this monitor is totally worth it. I use it as a second monitor to my Dell 1935FP (think thats the model - 19" standard). I'm running my DirecTV HD receiver on my 19" Dell but I am waiting for a cable to convert the HDMI to the VGA/DVI adapter.

  8. re: biology? on Forbes Says Vista Not People Ready · · Score: 1

    Let's take my three sisters. Each has a degree in biology.

    How did you end up in IT then?

  9. Re:Not likely on AjaxWrite to "Compete" with MS Word · · Score: 1

    More like "ajaxWrong" huh?

  10. Blockbuster rentals? on No HD-DVD Movies Until April · · Score: 1

    It'll be pretty hard with those unlimited Blockbuster and Netflix rentals with only 3 titles!

  11. Re:New Tool Tracks on New Tool Tracks Online Media Consumption · · Score: 1

    I originally read this without the rest of the title and decided that someone had leaked the new TOOL album and Slashdot was posting about it. Guess it's kinda on the brain right now.

    Hey, good thought! I've been wondering when this comes out. I see the date is May now!

  12. Or the other way around?? on New Tool Tracks Online Media Consumption · · Score: 1

    Media companies have often been caught flat-footed when a video or song takes off online. Or quite the opposite. The flat-foots often try to catch the illegal filesharers.

  13. Complaining? on Comcast Accused of Blocking VoIP · · Score: 1

    Switch to RoadRunner!! Oh wait, that's right, YOU CAN'T!!!

  14. Re:Watermark smatermark.. on Using Watermarks to Combat Piracy · · Score: 1

    Nice attitude there. I work with sound forge on a regular basis but apparently its not worth having a rational conversation with you. Thanks for YOUR input.

  15. Watermark smatermark.. on Using Watermarks to Combat Piracy · · Score: 1

    You realize if you just analyze the wave content you will most likely be able to find this. Any user with Cool Edit (Adobe Audition I believe now) or Sound Forge can open up the file and find it.

  16. Woah.. Flashbacks! on Team Confirms UCLA Tabletop Fusion · · Score: 1

    Flash backs of "Real Genius".

    I can just see Val Kilmer now... Self-realization, I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?"

  17. Hah! on What Was Your First Computer? · · Score: 1

    IBM PC Junior baby! Hacked up to have 640k total. Those memory sidecars were bigger than the XBox 360 power supply!! Imagine that!!

  18. Re:Privacy on Online Ajax Pages The New Web Desktop? · · Score: 1

    Haven't they tried this years back? I seem to remember online calendars and scheduling tools that were around 5-8 years ago that never caught on. I agree, email is ok, but I just don't see people moving purely online. You still have people who won't even purchase things over the web with there credit card.

  19. Re: Pizza Anyone on Surveillance Is on the Rise, Straining Carriers · · Score: 1
    This article reminds me of this.

  20. Re:Looks like crap? on Solar Energy Becoming More Pervasive · · Score: 1

    Yes, the economy cars do, but have you seen the new Lexus Hybrid? Can't complain about that!

  21. Re:And in other news.. on 2005 Was the Hottest Year on Record · · Score: 1

    India is still developing.. they are not burning the fossil fuels like the US right now.. (rolleyes)

  22. Re:Nothing is for certain... on The Backhoe, The Internet's Natural Enemy · · Score: 1

    Ya right, call before you dig.. are you kidding me? I can't name how many times I've had friends and family members lose phone, electricity, etc because some idiot plowed through a cable. Worse yet, they never get fined for doing it and the cost just get passed on to the consumer of course.

  23. So wait... on Digital DJs Unaware of Copyright Law · · Score: 1

    If you burned these files to CD, is it THEN legally ok to play them? I mean if you buy them, why the hell would it make a difference if they were in digital format or not when you played them. I mean CD's ARE in fact digital though... hahah what a joke.

  24. Re:/tin hat on Toyota Prius Under Fire For Patent Infringement · · Score: 1

    It's the oil companies in disguise!

    I wouldn't laugh about that...

  25. How is this different? on iTunes is Malware? · · Score: 1

    How is this different from every other website you visit? Yahoo Music does this as well.
