  1. Re:Here's an idea.... on Browsers Fighting to Keep up with the Web · · Score: 1

    Personly I have no problem with Microsoft bundling IE with Windows. If it wasn't for that, then I would have to go get Firefox on a disk instead of an easy free download. Those of us in the know, know that IE being bundled with Windows just gives us easy access to better browers, those not in the know will continue to use IE blindly.

  2. Re:Police don't write parking tickets. on Jack Thompson's Violent Game Bill Signed Into Law · · Score: 1

    I hope the people responsible for this bill die and go to hell, if there is one that is. I am too angry to come up with anything else remotely intelligent right now.

  3. Re:Subsidizing farmers is for national defense on Blizzard, Square/Enix Ban Yet More Farmers · · Score: 1

    Yeah, paying farmers to grow food and then burn it is just outrages. Last year in college (my freshman year) my peer advisor told us about stastistics that he had studied that show that if the world moved its food supply around in a faster, more efficiant way that there would be very few hungry people. We could feed Africa if we did it right, instead we burn thousands of tons of food each year after the government pays for it. Oh and btw, its no longer "PC" to call countries in places like Africa third world, we instead should call them "developing". Lol, even though I got to a liberal college, I find that a load of shit, most of them haven't been developing at any recordable rate for years, istead they have been at war, and not without a little help from the good old US of A.

  4. Re:Ghost on World of Starcraft? Not So Much · · Score: 1

    From what I know they stopped working on ghost, which is fine by me because it would be a big let down for computer gamers. I would much rather have StarCraft 2 than WoS. I don't like most MMORPG's I get bored with them usualy under a month, in fact the game I played the longest was Star Wars Galaxies, I didn't even bother trying out WoW after watching a friend play it for a while, it just seemed to cartoonish to me, all the stupid little things you could do to your character were slightly ammusing, but still very childish.

  5. Re:Remember Iran: on Labs Compete to Build New Nuclear Bomb · · Score: 1

    Oh, yes, just to reiterate (i love my spelling abilities, lol), the US has over 6,000 nukes, but were so god damned fucking angry when a little country like Iran trys to build just one?! WTF?! We are so fucking messed up its fucking disgusting.

  6. Re:Remember Iran: on Labs Compete to Build New Nuclear Bomb · · Score: 1

    This is why I fear the future, as we all should if things keep going as they have been in the last 6 years. Another part of me, the part that loves movie and video violence a little too much keeps saying "Let the war come! Let it come and let me be an elite soldier in it!" Oh what nonesense is that, probably get my self killed in basic training like that person last week did.

  7. Re:Fox coverage on Study Says Coffee Protects Against Cirrhosis · · Score: 1

    Well thats Fox news for you, supporting idiotic republicans even when its obvious they are lieing up the ass-if they can do that of course they can find some idiotic "ecpert" to say coffee is better than tea. Besides, everyone knows Bawls is much better than coffee.

  8. Re:Overkill on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The college students I met this year (was a freshmen) for the most part did not use these kind of drugs. For the few that did, it was for finals week where they were up for 4 days strieght (why can't I spell anymore? Bah) or they would just use them to see how long they could stay up, but were not actualy doing anywork, they were playing WoW or something equaly stupid (I hate WoW). I think its kind of sad that people need think they need these drugs to compete. I for one will not be using these drugs and plan on "competing" just as they do.

  9. Re:It's as much the employer's loss here on More Warnings Against Oversharing on MySpace · · Score: 1

    I have to agree with plasmacutter, but just as well I am glad that I don't do too much crazy stuff with my myspace acount(only have it to get messeges) and my facebook acount (the only thing questionable on it is the groups I've joined, mostly anti republican groups). Anyway, I hate myspace, its so god damned slow because way to many idiots are using it and putting up moving backgrounds along with music videos and crazzy pictures on the front page. Most of the time I can't do anything because the servers go to damned slow. The site should go back to being about the artists, give them the ability to have multimedia acounts while everyone else gets limitations on the shit they can put up.

  10. Blah! on UK Music Fans Can Copy Own Tracks · · Score: 1

    I'm getting tired of people trying to force Apple to open up its software. Deal with it or go somewhere else, if enough people go somewhere else, they will change, but quit complaining. Apple has every right to be an asshole with their software, because it is thier's. Thats how life works, people get to do what they want with their own damn stuff (to a reasnable extant, which this is).

  11. I think your out of luck on The Living Dilbert? · · Score: 1

    From what I know of life, the reason that Dilbirt is so popular is because it shows what real life is, just in the extreem though. If you search hard enough, I'm sure you can find something that is almost devoid of the bullshit, and I hope you can find it. Because when I enter the serious job market in a few years, I hope there is someplace to go where I don't have to kiss the asses of idiots to get a promotion.

  12. Re:What kind of bullshit excuse is this? on Microsoft Talks Daily With Your Computer · · Score: 1

    Thanks man, also, while I haven't looked it up, I doubt that Suse is free, I should have mentioned I needed something free. Ack! Sorry, I am being attacked by misquitos, one just went right through my teeshirt! Finaly killed the buger, but I have at least 12 bites in the last 3 days, going insane, thats why I'm babaling and stuff. DIE MOTHER F**KER!!!!

  13. Re:What kind of bullshit excuse is this? on Microsoft Talks Daily With Your Computer · · Score: 1

    It says they are supposed to be checking for illigal coppies of Windows, then why the hell hasn't it cought mine yet? I've been running with a hacked coppy of Windows XP Pro Corprate that was hacked before XP was even released and I get all the updates and have had a problem, unless Microsoft is building a huge case against me, the assholes! I'd like to do it the legal way, but someone things $200 for a complete XP pro install is a good idea, FUCKING ASSHOLES!!! Thats the only part about building your own computer that can cost alot more than getting a comp from the store. Also, question, I want to install Linux on my Athalon 1800+ Sony laptop with 256DDR--which distrobution should I get (damn me and my spelling dissability!)?

  14. Re:But wait on Just Let Me Play! · · Score: 1

    I will agree that games are not as fun as they used to be, but that could be a personal issue. But I will not agree with the writer of this article. If you want an easy game, put it on easy mode and stop complaining.

  15. Re:Sadened on Pirates Promise Improved Version of DaVinci Code · · Score: 1

    Yes we are openly praising these people. While it is wrong in some ways, it is one proposed way of getting the big movie companies to give the public fair fucking prices.

  16. Re:These look great! on First Photos of MIT $100 Laptop · · Score: 1

    I really wonder if the bright coloring and kid friendly design costs more than it would to make it less stylish, say a $95 laptop instead, lol.

  17. Re:HP GPUs? on 100 Million Pixels of Virtual Reality · · Score: 1

    They can make the boards and use the Nvidia or ATI chips, just like BFG or other companies do.

  18. Re:New Advances in Genetics, eh? on 100 Million Pixels of Virtual Reality · · Score: 1

    Is what slang for VR porn? If your asking if pr0n is, then yes and no, pr0n is porn, not just VR porn.

  19. Re:charge 'em on Cutting Off an Over-Demanding End-User? · · Score: 1

    So basicly I would say charge $150 an hour, minimum 2 hours, and if they don't need anything more than twenty minutes worth, go on to your next job, and keep going through the same process. You could make bank and even end your day early, leaving plenty of time to find some ass.

  20. Re:Is that a backfire I hear? on Napster Going Back to Free Downloads · · Score: 1

    Good Idea. I would rather napster just go back to fucking the music industry though, so much more fun. If they did it right, they could make the songs downloadable for free and still make the payments to the jackasses that own the music industry. Most artists would be happy with it. Or better yet, someone shoot the top guys, pay the musicians what they deserve, and pay management bosses less.

  21. Re:Effects of hypergravity? on NASA's 20-G Centrifuge Machine · · Score: 1

    Wow, now you go so low as to get personal. I knwo what instantaneous and sustained mean asshole, but untill that wikipedia page has sources listed that I can check, I will not agree with its info, because wikipedia has been historicly incorrect many times.

  22. Re:Effects of hypergravity? on NASA's 20-G Centrifuge Machine · · Score: 1

    After going to Wikipedia, I have to say that sitting down does not give 10gs, because right above the data you listed it says fighter pilots sometimes gray out at around 6gs, if this was the case plopping into a chair would be much more interesting than it already is.

  23. Re:Effects of hypergravity? on NASA's 20-G Centrifuge Machine · · Score: 1

    Of course space is wieghtless, but when taking off into space, there is gravity, and a shit ton of G force, I think I heard its around 9gs, but I'm not sure.

  24. Save Me. Also, WTF?! on Net Neutrality Voted Down in U.S. House Committee · · Score: 0, Troll

    Please save me, there will be no freedom when companys own the net. Also, who the hell is to say that the United States government gets to decide what the internet can and cannot due, isn't the net supposed to be some kind of international world. Oh wait, we will only get that when the net is truely virtual, using no physical conections that can be blocked in any way. Also, f**k rich ass companies.

  25. Re:Bloodless Surgery? on Bloodless Surgery · · Score: 1

    You don't open the chest, you go in through a vien in the leg and slid the new valve up. I think this was mentioned on slashdot, if not it was in wired online.
