  1. Re:cue on Intel Shows Off 80-core Processor · · Score: 1

    Yeah. Not to sound like an asshole, BUT IT SHOULD BE 1080. gosh

  2. Re:The Dog Companion on Molyneux Slips Additional Details on Fable II · · Score: 1

    If I could get a companion like Alyx's dog in any game, it would be the reason to buy it. That's a good idea for a mod for Fable 2 on pc

  3. Re:Blu-ray the winner? No Way on Big Releases Heat Up High-Def Format War · · Score: 1

    yeah but that was back before the advent of limewire and bittorrents. all the pr0n I have, I acquired w/ torrents

  4. Re:Duh on User Created Content is Key for New Games · · Score: 1

    don't forget garry's mod

  5. Re:Not just for viruses on 'Virus Sponge' Could Improve Flu Treatments, Diabetes Care, Vaccine Development · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I wonder if it could be used to prevent alzheimer's disease? After all, that is caused by a buildup of amyloid beta protein and this could theoretically be used to "sponge up" excesses of it.

  6. Re:How long before Debian ARM is ported? on DARPA's Artificial Arm Comes With VR Training · · Score: 1

    nrrrk how awesome would it be if it were controlled by an ARM processor?

  7. Re:Controlling the internet is easy. on SCO Chairman Fights to Ban Open Wireless Networks · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure I didn't pay anything for the porn I got with limewire and bittorrents... and neither of them asked me for a credit card/checking account number "for age verification"

  8. Re:Well they could have been like other companies on Protected Memory Stick Easily Cracked · · Score: 1

    I'm probably about to get modded as offtopic for this, but okay..... I work at the Dairy Queen where I live. The owner of the store (a techno-stupid 60-something man) can connect to the DQ servers @ wherever from the computer in the office. I don't know how its done (web-based or another program) but needless to say it's a secure connection (I brought my laptop + ethereal to work once). But none of the security does him any good because he has the login and password on a bright pink post it note on his monitor. I stood right there in the office and talked to him while copying it down on a piece of paper in my wallet. So yeah, the human factor is probably a bigger element of digital security than any complex algorithm, security program or whatever else there might be involved.

  9. Re:OT RAM prices on AMD Cuts X2 Processor Prices · · Score: 1

    When was this purchase made? Because if you did that recently, I would think that that finding a 64k ram card would be something that one would purchase to cherish (antique ram)

  10. Re:Typical attempt to get government to spend oodl on Paint Provides Network Protection · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm sure schools would pick this up very quickly if it blocked cell phone signal. I can almost factually say that my school would.

  11. Re:Link? on Voters Vote Yes, County Says No · · Score: 1

    Militia: 1. a body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies. 2. a body of citizen soldiers as distinguished from professional soldiers. 3. all able-bodied males considered by law eligible for military service. 4. a body of citizens organized in a paramilitary group and typically regarding themselves as defenders of individual rights against the presumed interference of the federal government. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/militia

  12. Also.. on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Consider that some heavy metal is very intellegent music. Sure, when most people hear "heavy metal" they think Slipknot, Korn, Marilyn Manson and the ilk, but I can get into some Iron Maiden (The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is singularly the greatest metal song ever, and not only for it's music), Metallica (80's era) has some great political meaning, and Tool is fun to listen to and try to contemplate the possible meanings of the song. Or am I the only gifted nerd who thinks so?

  13. Re:But... on Data Centers Breathe Easier With Less Oxygen · · Score: 2, Funny

    Space suits would be an immediate answer

  14. Re:This is so stupid on Archive.org Sued By Colorado Woman · · Score: 2, Interesting

    One reason I love mozilla firefox so much is the NoScript plugin. Because I was never presented with such a dialouge (because I had javascript blocked), and therefore never agreed to it, am I still bound as such?

  15. Slashdotted already? on Debian Gets Win32 Installer · · Score: 2, Funny

    Has that site been slashdotted? And if so, is there a mirror?
