  1. Is this anything like Adobe Atmosphere? on Metaverse the Next Big Thing? · · Score: 1

    Adobe created a program that would allow users to create a 3D website. It was a great concept, but it did run very clunky like, but I think if they revived it it might work. I downloaded a copy a long time ago and messed around with it. It was pretty basic but I guess they got no support for it cause now its dead.

  2. Re:It's a different society. on China Moving to Real Name Registrations for Blogs · · Score: 1

    I don't know about that. I go to a forum that requires the use of real names. I don't mind. It's for a product that I use, and there seems to be less idiots on the board. I think it is enforced by only allowing people who have bought their product to actually register.

    Now I don't think I would want to do this for my user account at my LOST forums or Halo forums.

  3. How long does it take to measure 60 meters? on Space Elevator Challenge · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Just curious why it is taking so long to measure the the ribbon to see if it was 60 meters or 50? Is there a specific process to it?

  4. Re:No North Korean spam! on The Internet Black Hole That Is North Korea · · Score: 1

    Well without the Internet how will North Korea use Google Maps to know where to use those bombs.

  5. Firefox 2.0 Themes on Firefox 2.0 To Debut Tuesday · · Score: 3, Informative

    They already have Firefox 2.0 themes out.

  6. Re:Thank God Someone Said It on The 20 Worst Games Ever · · Score: 1

    The game was beatable! If you have a video or know of a video showing someone beating it I would greatly appreciate it.

  7. Re:This is NOT the same thing on The Netscaping of Symantec and McAfee · · Score: 1

    I've always said that MS should offer free anti-virus software and updates for free. They do have a free anti-spyware program, but you have to download that genuine program.

  8. Thank God Someone Said It on The 20 Worst Games Ever · · Score: 1

    I always thought me and my brothers just sucked at E.T. because we never got anywhere in the game. Come to find out it was the game and not us. I'm glad that took the number one position.

  9. How long? on FBI Head Wants Strong Data Retention Rules · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Internet service providers have unwittingly deleted the very records that would help us identify these offenders and protect future victims

    So the ISPs are retaining the info, but not long enough for the Feds to do their job right, so they are asking for them to keep them longer. Well how long? Why are the Feds so slow? Will they want to extend the retention length again if the time table they recommended isn't long enough?

  10. Re:This is terrible on No Ice on the Moon · · Score: 1

    Doesn't NASA have a water filtration device that they use to turn their urine into drinkable water? I'm sure they can make moon water drinkable. But what will they do about the strange powers the water gives them. Will the astronauts use it for good or for evil?

  11. Re:What do you think cable TV is? on Battlefield 2142 to Bundle Spyware? · · Score: 1

    I currently don't have cable, but your analogy is way off. When you buy cable you know that you are still going to have commercials and those commercials help those stations. The money I pay goes to the cable company. Now as for video games I pay for them and there are no ads and along with it comes a history of no ads. Now all of a sudden I pay for it and I get ads and along with it spyware, which might slow down how well my computer runs while playing the damn game.

    They are inserting something new in a institute that never had it before. It's a new revenue for them. Why then should I pay for it?

  12. Re:What is it with... on World's Smallest Robotic Hand · · Score: 1

    The best part was it wasn't a video file. Instead it was an animated gif. Maybe they are anti-Youtube.

  13. Re:You must be thinking of some different movie on Google Campus to Become Solar-powered · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well that does make sense. Because I've always said that the Matrix would be better off using animals as batteries because a group of renegade cows would do nothing in the Matrix.

  14. Re:In Other News on International Music Industry Amps Up Anti-P2P War · · Score: 1

    Consumer revolution is where its at. Too bad we can't get the masses to join in. So for now the music industry has us by the balls.

  15. Shouldn't it Be Free Then on Battlefield 2142 to Bundle Spyware? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Spend $50

    Hell if it has ads on it then I want the game for free. Why should I pay for the game when they will be generating money from ads geared towards me?

  16. Re:You must be thinking of some different movie on Google Campus to Become Solar-powered · · Score: 1

    Didn't the fusion involve using the humans body though? I thought they kept the humans in the matrix because if you didn't stimulate the human mind, then it would shut down and thats how the machines lost crops of people.

  17. Re:Nuclear on U.S. Population Hits 300 Million · · Score: 1

    Speaking of nuclear, what if North Korea bombs the hell out of the U.S. Do we drop the number back down below 300 mil?

  18. Re:Good, but not a huge deal on Google Campus to Become Solar-powered · · Score: 1

    I know. They should just stick to clean old oil. Save for the environment and plenty of it to last several life times.

  19. Headline 5 Years From Now on Google Campus to Become Solar-powered · · Score: 1

    "Google Uses Humans for Bio-Energy." First human farm to power server farm by Google. Sergey Brin changes his name to Sergey Smith and wants everyone to start calling him by his last name.

  20. Re:"Real life" on Who Cares If Privacy Is Slipping Away? · · Score: 1

    If terrorist wanted to show how much control they have on this country, then they would just need to openly attempt to either poison alcohol or use it as an explosive devise. Our government will do the rest. Then we'll see how many citizens care more about security over a dry country.

  21. Re:Incredible Speaker on Jobs Unfazed by Zune · · Score: 1

    I think they are going for "Squirt". Squirt me your pictures. Squirt me that song.

  22. Re:I'm Rich Biatch on New Stephen Hawking Movie in the Works · · Score: 1

    Since Stephen Hawkins makes appearences on the Simpsons and Family Guy, do you think they will make an appearance in his movie.

    "Spit in my mouth."

  23. Re:It is a BIG DEAL! on Element 118 Created · · Score: 1

    According to Battle Beast, there is only Fire! Wood! or Water! I think 118 was codenamed Sunburst.

  24. Re:Yeah, real funny... on Airport To Tag Passengers With RFID · · Score: 2, Funny

    FBI: "Can you print me out a copy of the screen so I can show the president?"
    Airport Security: "Sure. Here you go."

  25. Re:Dog collars. on Airport To Tag Passengers With RFID · · Score: 5, Funny

    FBI: "What's all the dots?"
    Airport Security: "Those are all the passangers and people in the airport."
    FBI: "Well how do we find the terrorist in that sea of dots?"
    Airport Security: "Well, they will be the . . . suspicious . . . dots."
    FBI: "Whats a suspicious dot look like?"
    Airport Security: "You'll have to talk to my supervisor. I just watch the dots."
