  1. Re:Limewire on The Perfect Way To Slice a Pizza · · Score: 4, Funny

    "You wouldn't copy a pizza, would you?"

  2. Re:Where there go my business plans on Google Unveils goo.gl URL Shortening Service · · Score: 1

    You raise an interesting question - if you actually started and trademarked a company named Goo in Greenland, couldn't you 'force' Google to give the name to you? (Therefore breaking the shortening service)

  3. Re:How in the heck did he get 1000 apps in the sto on Dev Booted From App Store For Inflated Reviews · · Score: 1

    I think the users have been complaining about that longer than the developers.

  4. Re:My car also runs on steam again... on Not All iPods — Vinyl and Turntables Gain Sales · · Score: 1

    Don't worry, it works just fine as long as your car is hooked up to the internet!

  5. Re:Well, there goes what's left of G4 on Comcast to Buy 51% of NBC, GE Goes After 49% · · Score: 1

    Attack of the Show doesn't even deserve to have it's name put anywhere near the name TechTV. AotS is not The Screen Savers. X-Play is the only thing that survived the merger.

  6. Re:end game in sight on Google Launches Public DNS Resolver · · Score: 1

    I'm not really sure what you're going on about, but the specifications for LTE (4th gen. cellular) use SIP for voice services, which includes both tel:+1234567890 and sip:name@host.tld support.

  7. Re:Large Hardon Collider *ouch* on LHC Knocked Out By Another Power Failure · · Score: 1

    Does the "pan-dimensional police force" not just scream Combine Overwatch to you? (I suppose they would want us to open the portal, though..)

  8. Re:That's funny, expecting her share? on Somali Pirates Open Up a "Stock Exchange" · · Score: 1

    By Pony Expr.. ooohhh.

  9. Re:Yesss!! on Somali Pirates Open Up a "Stock Exchange" · · Score: 1

    No, it is public. They're just that good.

  10. Re:obligatory on Scientology Charged With Slavery, Human Trafficking · · Score: 1

    Of course it's not. Everyone knows it's one person!

  11. Re:If he was paid $50, he wasn't a "slave" on Scientology Charged With Slavery, Human Trafficking · · Score: 1

    There's a minimum floor of income under which you don't have to pay taxes.

  12. Re:Nice of them to change the color on Microsoft Investigates Windows 7 "Black Screen of Death" · · Score: 1

    What the heck version of Windows are you using? Vista and 7 both support installing RAID drivers from USB in the installer.

  13. Re:3 strikes - how to enforce? on EU ACTA Doc Shows Plans For Global DMCA, 3 Strikes · · Score: 1

    As far as I know, the way the 3-strikes laws are supposed to work are only to disconnect your home ISP access. You're not 'banned' from the internet entirely, just from subscribing to it as a resident. I'm not so sure how this treaty works, though.

  14. Re:Dials for manipulating 3D objects on 1977 Star Wars Computer Graphics · · Score: 4, Informative
  15. Re:Use Tax on Calling B.S. On Amazon's Taxation Arguments · · Score: 1

    Ironically it's easier to keep track of your purchases online than it is on the outside..

  16. Re:I can't believe I'm saying this on Microsoft Disconnects Modded Xbox Users · · Score: 1

    I do wish more people would understand this. It's like the people who don't feel they're entitled to violate the terms of service for something they don't own (Live, not the console).

  17. Re:I can't believe I'm saying this on Microsoft Disconnects Modded Xbox Users · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Congratulations, you just compared two completely divisions of Microsoft. Also, this is nowhere near the first console ban Microsoft has done (they did a good job hitting the users right after the first DVD drive mods came out) and hardly any false positives if any have come up. Being a closed system (unlike PCs) they can tell when something is different about the hardware.

  18. Re:Disconnected? on Microsoft Disconnects Modded Xbox Users · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That would be a terrific way to punish console modders - force output to 350x240.

  19. Re:LHC on Unknown 7m Asteroid Almost Impacted Earth · · Score: 1

    At this point I think throwing it at the asteroids might be a more cost-effective solution.

  20. Re:Duh on How Do You Evaluate a Data Center? · · Score: 1

    Must.. buy hosting... from GoDaddy!

  21. Re:i ran a junky data center on How Do You Evaluate a Data Center? · · Score: 1

    I think you have basement and attic backwards..

  22. Re:attack it on How Do You Evaluate a Data Center? · · Score: 1

    I want to play that now, darnit!

  23. Re:How will they enforce it? on Verizon Droid Tethering Comes At a Hefty Price · · Score: 2, Informative

    They can't enforce it, people tether with Verizon phones now without tethering plans, and there are already tethering apps for Android. Also, Exchange is only extra if you're a corporate customer.

  24. Re:Gigabits or Gigabytes? on Verizon Droid Tethering Comes At a Hefty Price · · Score: 1, Troll

    It's gigabytes, the idiots who wrote the article probably don't know the difference.

    When my iPhone decides it won't try to automatically erase itself after I reinstall my OS,

    I'm not trying to disprove your point, but try backing up your iTunes Library files next time and you shouldn't have that problem. Just last night I deactivated my computer from iTunes, backed up my iTunes library, formatted the computer, restored my library, reinstalled and reactivated iTunes, and synced my iPod Touch like nothing had changed.
