  1. Looks great. on The Visual Look of Star Trek Online · · Score: 3, Insightful

    While the two screenshots they showed might look relatively simple, they definitely look like the Enterprise D -- and that may be the most important thing.

  2. Why only Skype? on Does Your Employer Ban Skype? · · Score: 1

    While they're at it, they should ban email and telephones too if they want to stop information leaks.

  3. Re:2006? on New 3D Graphics Card Features in 2006 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Yep. The "brand-new" Radeon X1k series was launched in October, and the GeForce 7 series was launched in August.

  4. Re:What makes a good web font on What Makes a Good Web Font · · Score: 1

    Agreed. And I thank /. for letting my browser use the font I selected, as Times in italics simply isn't readable.

  5. Re:This. Is. Evil. on Google Adds Widgets to Homepage · · Score: 2, Informative

    Google didn't use the word widget, I don't know why /. keeps posting references to Google Widgets, which don't exist. They're simply personalized homepage modules. Regardless, one use of the word widget has come to be small open applications running on a shared platform. So even if they did use the word widget, they wouldn't be redefining it.

  6. Re:Hotmail? on Google Adds Widgets to Homepage · · Score: 1

    People still use hotmail?

  7. Re:Big Brother Space Edition... on Reality TV "Astronauts" Lift Off · · Score: 1

    I think an actual "reality" show involving outer space could be interesting if done right. Not like they'd be allowed on the ISS, but make them fight to be on a SpaceShipTwo, or even just make them do challenges on a parabolic flight.

  8. 2 brief comments. on Yahoo Updates Konfabulator · · Score: 1

    First point: we know what widgets are. We're reading /. and don't need a definition. Second point: since when does Google offer rival widgets? They have Google Desktop, yes, but that's no Konfabulator or Dashboard.
