  1. Re:talk about over protective on Big Mother Is Watching · · Score: 1

    Agreed. Fat kids are their own fault. Dont blame the skinny ones, like me :P

  2. Re:Microsoft is just isolating itself on Microsoft Locking Out Anti-Virus Makers? · · Score: 1

    One more step towards world domination

  3. Has anyone realized this on Text Mining the New York Times · · Score: 2

    Has anyone realised that english is one of the most screwed up, stupid languages ever created? its just been stretched and modified in any way possible and some aspects of it are practically useless. Maybe the world would be better off inventing a better language than analysing a horrible one :P

  4. Re:Another Get Firefox day coming soon... on IE7 to be Pushed to Users Via Windows Update · · Score: 1

    Maybe Mozilla are using all the instances of firefox to actually try and divide by zero... It still could be a realistic number you know :P

    But honestly i dont get any of these outrageous memory sizes ive heard, at maximum my friefox uses no more than 50 megabytes, and thats about 12+ tabs open and on different sites.

    Messenger Live 8 uses twice as much on my computer usually, closely followed by windows Explorer

    Caue u got the bombs :P and thats all they want :P

  6. In my experience, any paid software is worse... on Why Popular Anti-Virus Apps 'Don't Work' · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Ive seen my fair share of viruses, and also my fair share of antivirus programs, but ive never seen a off the shelf product work as well. i use AVGfree, and as far as i know i have had next to no trouble with viruses. It is small in terms of memory and downloads but it seems to work a lot better than anything else ive tried.

    But i think there may be more to it. I think if you know your fair share about computers you know what to stay away from. I know that any site on the internet offering wares and serials is a sure thing to stay away from. Also if you just dont look up porn you have a very good chance of not getting a virus. :P

  15. Re:Virtual bots on The Question of Robot Safety · · Score: 3, Insightful

    In the world of literature it dosent matter what things are, so long as they can sound real.
    Besides, many people would have died in a similar way to that.

    I have read about robots for ages and i think that the three laws are a load of crap. We dont even live in a world where robots can think for themselves yet, let alone be able to kill someone because they wanted to. I dont even see the point of making a robot that is aware of its existance, There is no real reason to do so.

    Nvidia comes home from work, tired and exausted, he walks throught the door and cant find his Bride-to-be AMD anywhere. He eventually goes to the bedroom and sees ATI and AMD under the sheets....
