  1. Re:Give it to the Investigators at CSI on The Tenth Planet Shrinks Under Hubble's Gaze · · Score: 1

    Do you know where I can get a pirated copy? I mean a trial copy. I want to help NASA with this planet problem.

  2. Revenge of the Nerds on Google Voice Search May be Coming Soon · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think they meant Lamda Lamda Lamda. What a great movie.

  3. Give it to the Investigators at CSI on The Tenth Planet Shrinks Under Hubble's Gaze · · Score: 3, Funny

    According to the TV show CSI, they can take that pixel increase the image size and then enhance it enough to make out all the different geographical terrian on the planet/object in space. I tried it in Photoshop and it just doesn't work.

  4. Re:Who mod'ed that "troll"? on Microsoft Helps Write Oklahoma's Anti-Spyware Law · · Score: 1

    If macs were cheaper I would, till then I have to have WinXP to run Avid.

  5. Re:Who mod'ed that "troll"? on Microsoft Helps Write Oklahoma's Anti-Spyware Law · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That's scarey, not only will Microsoft be able to snoop inside my computer and install stuff, but those who always hack Microsoft programs will be able to do the same. Plus how will Microsoft know whats good for my computer. I'm running a certain version of Adobe Premiere on my Win2K machine. It runs fine as long as I keep it on SP2. If I upgrade the service pack, I unleash a whole new set of bugs that cause Premiere to act the fool. What if Microsoft decides it's about time I upgraded to SP4 and they screw up my stuff?

  6. Re:FP? on Bunk Camp - Apple Gets It Wrong? · · Score: 1

    Amen. I'm tired of software that has to make drivers for Win95 or 98 and then debug for them. Let those people suffer and tell them to upgrade it's been more than a decade. I like how some software companies like Adobe and Avid are starting to make their software for only certain Microsoft OS, the newest ones.

  7. Re:Climate on Venus on Venus Probe Set to Reach Target · · Score: 1

    You're right and good for you for making it a political thing. Nothing makes an argument that more persausive than when you draw party lines. The smog in LA wasn't caused by humans it's just part of the eco cycle. Same with all that crappy air the Chinese are breathing, it's mother natures way of saying "I'm transforming into something new keep doing what you're doing because it's helping me kill all the humans."

  8. Don't Blame Google on This Boring Headline is Written for Google · · Score: 1

    Don't blame Google, they use an algo that tries to pick up on the search patterns of the searchers. Blame the searchers for using such boring search words instead. If you want to see what end users are typing in for searches check out http://www.nichebot.com/, which tracks the most common keyword phrases that are searched. See if a keyword search pulls up as popular, or if some real boring phrase ranks higher.

  9. Organic Technology on Viruses Engineered to Construct Batteries · · Score: 1

    In Sci-Fi stories aliens always have the upper hand with their organic infused technology. Maybe we are those aliens and we will invade another planet.

  10. Re:Why?? on New Phishing Flaw in Internet Explorer · · Score: 1

    I worked at a place that used Microsoft Projects, which only works properly in IE. I tried using it in FireFox and it loses some of the functionality.

  11. Google WiFi Beta on Google/Earthlink Wins San Francisco WiFi Deal · · Score: 1

    How cool would it be to see the WiFi signs around town with the tiny Google Beta logo underneath.

  12. Re:good....? on Republicans Defeat Net Neutrality Proposal · · Score: 1

    Instead of writing our Congressman citizens will need to write their shareholder to get things done.

  13. Patent on Patents on Netflix Suing Blockbuster for Patent Infringement · · Score: 1

    Well I'm waiting for my patent to "Make Patents" to be approved by the patent office. I figure I'll have to get a good lawyer and start handing out some lawsuits. I think I'll just hang out at the patent office and pass them out like tickets for a doorprice.

  14. Re:Google's first serious misstep? on Google Music Store Inches Closer? · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why the music companies don't all just make their own sites that are user friendly like i-tunes. Then they can track customers, like you mentioned.

  15. I'm Already on Web 3.0 on The State of Web 2.0, The Future of Web Software · · Score: 1

    Let's start Web 3.0. Just an idea and a phrase for the next level of web browsing. It will include smell-a-vision, of course, as well as touchable sites (the later more successful for the porn industry).

  16. Re:Just what the world needs on Intel Unveils PC for Developing Nations · · Score: 1

    Hey that guy contacts me all the time to. I sent him $500 and I'm waiting to hear back. Should be any day now.

  17. Re:More April Fools Jokes on New Plans From Lucasfilm · · Score: 1

    The Internet has made us lazy and McDonalds has made us fat. We aren't in the same shape we were 10 years ago.

  18. ohhh I thought you meant Star Wars on New Plans From Lucasfilm · · Score: 1

    I didn't realize this was an April Fool's joke. I thought you meant that Star Wars gets worse every year and I agreed. But you meant the jokes. Oops.

  19. All I Care About is the Controller on Revolution Horsepower Revealed · · Score: 2, Interesting

    When I get a new system all I really care about is the controller. The graphics can be 8-bit for all I care. Thank you Nintendo for realizing this and making a system geared towards 1% of the gaming population because we feel left out when it comes to playing games on current consoles.

  20. Re:HEY KID! on Brain Cells Fused with Computer Chips · · Score: 1

    Who wants a body massage? Do we get to pick which brand of brain chip we want? I want a P4 with hyperthreading. No wait I want an AMD 64 because I'm a 64 bit system and want to be optimized.

  21. Re:rogue on Gaming Now and 20 Years Ago · · Score: 1

    Oregon Trail rocked even though it had very simple graphics. It's like comparing movies of the past with movies of today. Sure the movies today have great special effects, but most of them lack a great story, which is what movies are all about.

  22. Re:fp on Suing Google Over Pagerank · · Score: 1

    I don't know what these kinderstart.com people are complaining about have you seen their inbound links? link:www.kinderstart.com 214 inbound links and how many pages Google has indexed for them site:www.kinderstart.com 29,800 pages indexed by Google I use to do SEO for sites and that's some pretty good numbers especially the inbound links.

  23. Google Has Guidelines on Suing Google Over Pagerank · · Score: 1

    Do you know how many sites are on the net? It would take Google forever to tell each company why they are ranked where they are. Google does however tell site masters how they can help their site get indexed on their search engine. http://www.google.com/webmasters Google isn't responsible for how high a site ranks, the owner of the site is. Google just sends out an algo that list the "most relevent" or "most popular" sites.

  24. Re:If the price fits.... on HD-DVD and Blu-Ray Coming Soon to PCs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I heard all PS3 games will be Blu Ray. Which brings up an interesting question about piracy? Since piracy will be really low for the PS3 does that mean that the cost of games will be cheaper? Because Sony, Xbox, and Nintendo have been claiming games are expensive because of piracy (well at least that's one of the main factors).

  25. If it was good 5 years ago on Gates Mocks MIT's $100 Laptop · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I remember laptops that had small screens and very little RAM and processor speed, but 10 years ago Americans used them to run businesses. In a poor country these would be cutting edge technology, but from the point of view of wealthy countries we couldn't imagine doing business on these machines even though we used to.
