  1. Re:Monday afternoon? on IE7 Released and Available for Download · · Score: 1

    Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays

  2. Actually on IE7 Released and Available for Download · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Actually, there will be quite a few people downloading it. I upgraded to IE7 beta to test out my pages on that. Now I'll upgrade to the final. Sadly, you still can't ignore IE.

  3. Re:FaceBook on Friendster's Rise and Fall · · Score: 1

    The advertising is even less intrusive when there isn't any visible. Thank you adblock plus!

    Even myspace looks mildly acceptable once the ads and certain "design resource" sites are blocked.

    I for one am tired of our DRM loving monopoly overlords!

    You'll regret that statement when the revolution comes.

    Penny Arcade was killing it first. If you keep refreshing, it will load, seriously.

  6. Great read on Iwata Interviews Wii Developers · · Score: 1

    I found it interesting to get a tiny peek into how the console was developed.

  7. Old-ish on Valve's Portal Part of the Half-Life World · · Score: 2, Informative

    The fact it's in the HL universe has been known for a while. The only new info I found was that you don't start out with the two-portal gun.

  8. Re:The address you entered could not be found. on EarthLink Establishes Their Own "Site Finder" · · Score: 1
    Don't kid yourself. The advertisments for http://slashdot.org/ would be for RealDolls, anime porn, and live sex chat sites.

    Awesome! I'm switching to earthlink.

    "Install our free screensaver and it will speed up your Internet tubes 200%!!!"


    How will it increase my tube speed? Will it widen them? I was sent internet last week, and still haven't gotten it. I think it's from too much stuff clogging the tubes.

    Problem is, the last people seen with the boot disk were the founding fathers. I hear they're dead now.
  13. Re:Lots of files to download... on Microsoft Acquires Winternals and Sysinternals · · Score: 2, Informative

    Uploaded to megaupload. Sorry for the annoying ads that come with it. It's the fastest site to upload to I could find http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9M999M8L There may be a few repeats in there. I didn't check.

  14. Hmm... Metroid Prime? on Gaze Detector Lets You Hear With Your Eyes · · Score: 1

    This makes me think of Samus's Scan Visor. Maybe if you scan your boss, you can find his weak points, so you can take advantage and get a raise. You could find that structural instability in the side of your cubicle, to get to the hidden month-old-takeout-food powerup. You'll know interesting information about your coffee machine after you've scanned it, like who created it, and how it functions.

  15. Super-powerful lasers? on Sci-Fi Weapons to Join US Arsenal? · · Score: 0

  18. Info please? on EiffelStudio Goes Open · · Score: 0

    I haven't heard of this language, and don't want to do too much research (go go procrastination!). Can anyone tell me some of the basic info about this, and what makes it different? Why would I want to use this language over something already available, for example.

    I don't understand why everyone is so afraid of these things. They monitor us, keep track of us. The kind of thing a girlfriend would do if we had one. Think of keyloggers and the like as your new Girlfriend (beta 0.2, results may vary)

    I personally enjoy my desktop here. It's really nice, and I plan on using it for many more years. I don't like the idea of using mobile devices. I can't sit in my comfy chair while moving. Believe me, I've tried. Stairs and my chair do not agree.
