    All they have to do is call it Frienstr. Once you lose the e at the end, its web 2.0 gold.

    When you're President of the United States, you don't really have any recourse when Congress (a co-equal branch)

    Perhaps someone should tell bush that congress is a coequal branch of government. Even if congress did it themselves, I'm sure there would be a signing statement to the contrary....

  3. Re:You can tell something about these people on Irish Company Claims Free Energy · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm glad you were able to pull out such a specific rebuttal, but my point remains. The mere fact that venture capital money is still around means that it is pulling returns greater than its inputs, regardless of pets.com and other attention grabbing headlines shoved out by the media. Just because some lost money on dot.coms doesn't mean more made it on biotech and others...

    I think its great that everyone thinks Venture Capitalists are complete idiots. If thats true then where did they get the money to invest in the first place? If venture capital never had any returns, then venture capitalist would not exist.

    Who needs DRM when the YouTube videos are streamed in crap quality to begin with

    This is also a great way to make sure you never have a girlfriend or not have the choice to be one of those old people greeting me at walmart when they should be playing golf...

  7. Re:Dry eyes? on 40 Percent of World of Warcraft Players Addicted · · Score: 5, Insightful
    If you're suffering from dry eyes, headaches, back aches, erratic sleep patterns, it may be more than just your average hangover: according to Dr. Maressa Orzack, you could be suffering from video and computer game addiction.

    Along those same lines I guess you would have to conclude I am addicted to Excel and analyzing gas chromatography results as I feel like this at work constantly

  8. Re:A who did what to who? on Hoboken, NJ vs. Giant Parking Robot · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It is quite a neat system. I live in Hoboken less than a block from this garage. It is true it does hold a lot of cars, more than a regular garage. But one thing you will notice is that on a busy night like Friday or sat when everyone is returning from the bars/cafe is that there is always quite a line or cars lined up waiting for their turn to get into one of the elevator bays, often for quite a while as they all get out of the cars for smoke . Makes me think it isnt quite as fast as they make it out in this article. As well as the power outage situation mentioned above (like the Big Northeast blackout of 03)I would rather keep my car on the street.

    Lets say you burn out the RFID using something like This

  15. Re:Summary: Creative says "Waaaaaaaah" on Apple Sues Creative · · Score: 0
    It is truly about marketing. I have had an awsome little Mobiblu Cube for about a year, and get gawks and questions from at least 2 people on the subway a day. No one had seen it before, although walmart had a licensing agreement to sell them in the states. The features and price rock, as does the design

    One thing that apple does have together though is the intergration with itunes. Having podcasts subscribe and download automatically is sweet.
