  2. Re:Bill of Goods on Company to Pay for Election Problems · · Score: 1

    Open source, So everyone can right in thier own rigging systems! It'd probably work... Except instead of voting, everyone just rights in some code to rig the votes, in the end, it's be the same, except we should call it 'SourceWikiPolling 2.0' It makes perfect sence.

  3. Lies! on The FBI Software Upgrade That Wasn't · · Score: 1

    Ever the pecimist, I think it's probably just a cover-up, make a big PR thing about how it failed, and then let it run in the background.

  4. Did anyone else... on Microsoft Insists IE7 is Standards Compliant · · Score: 1

    ... laugh for about ten minutes after seeing the title on your feed reader? Seriously, I'm not joking. I vote for funniest article title of the year.

  5. Why should we care? on Americans Not Bothered by NSA Spying · · Score: 1

    As long as I'm not accused of anything, then I don't care. I'm actually English, but I doubt this only effects americans, so I'll go ahead and post my opinion.
    I don't do anything wrong, so why should I care, I don't mind if some guy in the NSA reads about Uncle Bob's new dog in an e-mail I recieve, frankly.

  6. Re:I for one... on Cancer Resistant Mouse Provides Possible Cure · · Score: 1

    I for one would like to welcome our Mouse-shaped overlords.

  7. I do. on Do Kids Still Program? · · Score: 1

    I am 14 and have been programming for around 6 years now. I started with Quick Basic, and I'm in the middle of learning C++ now.

  8. feature a 16MB cache on Seagate Announces 750GB Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    feature a 16MB cache? I have a Maxtor drive (Maxtor 6L250R0 Diamondmax 10 250GB) right in front of me with that, which I'm about to install. Goodness. but 750GB? unless you have alot of music, or quite a bit of video, filling that is going to be a task.

  9. Re:Idiots. on Microsoft Faces Korean Deadline · · Score: 1

    I'm not trolling, I just don't think they are doing anything wrong... If microsoft had it thier way, then they could sell PCs with windows on, and only Mircrosoft-endorsed stuff could be used, which is where they are headed with the Xbox. If you don't like it, switch to somthing else.

  10. Idiots. on Microsoft Faces Korean Deadline · · Score: 1

    I don't see why microsoft shouldn't bundle thier stuff? What next, none of the security because Norton don't like it? Or maybee they shouldn't be allowed to include themems, because of WindowBlinds? Madness.

  11. Rubbish on Tech Makes Working Harder · · Score: 1

    This is total rubbish, why do people allways blame everything on the wrong things? This on tech, Violence on Video Games, etc... It's stupid.

  12. VB. on Simple Windows Development Tools? · · Score: 1

    I'd reccommend Visual Basic EE. It's free at the moment, and easy to use. I've been using it quite a bit recently.

  13. Really? on Revolution Offers Hope For Disabled Gamers? · · Score: 1

    Well, this sounds great if it works like that, which I doubt it will. I would think it would make it harder, not easier. The Revolution is interesting, but I think this is a bit of a long shot, before the console is even out.

  14. Unfortunate on Loss of Applied IQ Among UK Youth? · · Score: 4, Funny

    This is all too true in my opinion. I'm probably in the group of 'UK Youth' and I go to a Grammar School, which accepts the top 10% of the area, and I often find myself thinking that if some members of my class are in the top ten percent, this area has no chance. Still, I think this may be a little flawed.

  15. Fanboyism on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 1

    I used to be very much a nintendo fanboy, until I realised it was alot better to just go with consoles you like, rather than a company you like. But I still found myself liking Nintendo. I do have an Xbox (non-360) and it's good. But all I have it for is a) Halo and b) Modding. In terms of games, my DS and gamecube have been alot better, but the Xbox was a beauty to mod. And Halo is a very good game. I think that Nintendo tend to be better, but alot of people complain of me being a nintendo fanboy now, even though I'm not. Genuinly nintendo seem to be a better company. I also have a dust covered PS2. But recently Gamecube games have been lacking, in fact, most games have been lacking, except for the DS.

  16. Price-wise on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Alot of people ague to me that 'Yes, the DS may have good games, but the PSP can play DVDs!' which annoys me as, if you buy a DS you can afford to buy a small travel DVD player with built in screen, that will play DVDs, unlike the PSP, which only plays UMDs. People don't seem to realise that the PSP is a little small to fit a DVD in. I even have GBAMP, 2 x 512 compact flash cards and FlashMe and am using moonshell to watch video and listen to music on my DS. And with Advance Wars and Mario Kart. It's a much better console games-wise. The PSP has only two advantages. Better Screen, Better Graphics. And, To be honest, I like having two screens without any dead pixels, and with the gameplay of the DS, I don't care about the graphics either.
