  1. Re:Golden ratio? on Linux Alternatives To Apple's Aperture · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The golden ratio is certainly important, but no, automatically cropping everything to it is a bad idea.

  2. Re:An opinionated an biased review on Google Lively Review · · Score: 1

    Nope, but apparently some people think it will lower gas prices....

  3. up next on Next Year's Madden, Others to Get Music Download Service · · Score: 1

    Sure, they'll let you buy the songs, but every time We Will Rock You or Rock and Roll Part 2 come on you'll get a bill from ASCAP/BMI. : p

  4. Re:I guess ID really isn't creationism then.. on Louisiana Passes Intelligent Design Law · · Score: 4, Insightful

    if we don't seriously question the biblical idea, it leaves the door open for the wrong idea to be implanted by fools posing as religious authorities.

    Yeah, but thankfully we know that would never happen....

  5. Re:habeas corpus on Senate Passes Telecom Immunity Bill · · Score: 4, Funny

    Oh, don't worry. They'll gladly show the judge the corpse.

  6. Re:BTW-for those unsure if you're broken on MS Security Patch Blocks Net Access For ZoneAlarm Users · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm pretty sure the computer I'm on right now is affected by this problem. Tell me what I need to do to fix it. It's a G5 iMac running Microsoft Tiger. The problem started when I updated Internet Safari. Please help!!!

  7. or course on Linux For Housewives. XP For Geeks. · · Score: -1, Troll

    Of course this is the case. The larger specs help the geeks compensate for their other, ummm, inadequacies.

  8. Re:is it legal to sell it? on Best Buy Is Selling Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    But are Best Buy offering to supply the source code? They have to do that if they distribute GPL software.

    No, Ubuntu is required to offer the source, and they more than willingly do that. If Best Buy created their own GeekSquad Linux then they'd have to offer the source for that.

  9. Re:The Dreaded "Domesday" Scenario on Cable-Laying Boom Will Boost Internet Capacity · · Score: 1

    Afraid of a little census, are you?

  10. Re:Oy vey... on How Technology Changes Classrooms · · Score: 1

    Or is it more likely you just weren't paying attention to "that crap" when it was being taught? In elementary through the college level I remember hearing students complaining they weren't taught things that I was--sitting in the same classroom they were.

    That's what I'm thinking happened. My family moved around a fair bit, yet I still was taught all of this stuff in every single school I attended. And I also had classmates swearing that they weren't taught things that were either covered extensively in class or that were covered in the assigned reading (more often than not in both).

  11. Re:Oy vey... on How Technology Changes Classrooms · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Thanks to technology, people are graduating without even knowing how to construct complete sentences. And also thanks to technology, those same people can now go on to be "editors" for major websites. : p

  12. interesting? on Who is Winning the Web Talent War · · Score: 5, Insightful

    it will be interesting to see if an equally prominent Googler posts a counter-theory

    No it won't. It will just prolong the pointless bickering between the two companies.

  13. Re:Worth the cost? on What Happens When You Reply To ALL of Your Spam · · Score: 2, Funny

    You ment month.

    You meant meant.

  14. anyone on Roundest Object In the World Created · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Does anyone here want to inform CmdrTaco that boobs shouldn't be perfectly spherical, and in fact, it's preferable if they're not?

  15. Re:The don't. Mod parent -1 uninformed. on Netflix Changes Its Mind, Will Keep Profiles Feature · · Score: 1
  16. Re:The don't. Mod parent -1 uninformed. on Netflix Changes Its Mind, Will Keep Profiles Feature · · Score: 1

    No, they currently don't. But they have stated publicly that they are seriously considering doing so.

  17. alright on Netflix Changes Its Mind, Will Keep Profiles Feature · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Congrats to those who wrote in about this. Now we just need to convince them not to charge a higher price to those of us who rent Blu-rays.

  18. Re:Apple Pro Keyboard on Review of Das Keyboard · · Score: 4, Informative

    and b) there isn't a power button on them like the old iMac keyboard

    While you can't turn a Mac on with the newer keyboards, you can turn them off. Press CTRL-Eject to bring up the power menu.

    Drink much kool aid?

    OH YEAH!!!

  20. Re:Oil change at the dealer on Apple Laptop Upgrades Costing 200% More Than Dells · · Score: 1

    And yet many here will tell people that they NEED more RAM or a new video card for a computer when consulted on upgrades. Curious how that works...

  21. Re:Oil change at the dealer on Apple Laptop Upgrades Costing 200% More Than Dells · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, you're obviously just a noob sucker who doesn't know a thing about his car. You should have your license revoked until you know how to rebuild an engine from scratch. : p

  22. Re:In Korea only old people on Magazine Photos Fool Age-verification Cameras · · Score: 5, Funny

    Hey now! I use magazine photos and I'm neither old nor Korean! Oh wait, what were we talking about?
