  1. Re:The magic key to iPhone sales on Apple Plans Cheaper Nano-Based iPhone · · Score: 1

    You can't call it a portable computing device unless you can do some portable computing on it. While the iPhone has this potential, it does not currently have the ability.

    Maybe an iPod with a touchscreen would fit the bill. Then they can't use the excuse of user made software clogging up the AT&Tubes.

  2. Of course not. on Are In-Depth Articles Better Than Blog Postings? · · Score: 1

    Reading blogs over in depth articles is just like you reading the posts here and not reading TFA. You have all the information you need right here. Why would you RTFA and wade through some twits attempt at being informative and "in depth" or some such. I think not.

  3. Re:Start counting here on Attempts to Count Linux Users Remain Pointless · · Score: 1

    No no, there are too many to count. All those botnets.

  4. Re:i love this on Google Maps Shows Chinese Nuclear Sub Prototype · · Score: 1

    And that's exactly what Big Brother wants us to believe. You're feeding us BS from the MAN man. The conspiracy continues.

  5. Re:Bombula on Deathbed Confession Says Aliens Were at Roswell · · Score: 1

    "And the chances of aliens being humanoid in appearance are close to zero."

    Actually I don't think they were necessarily completely alien. You see at some point in the future we will begin to explore outer space. And then we will begin to time travel. So what happened is Roswell wasn't aliens. It was future humans coming back to visit. They made a mistake and crashed. They were after all only human. Mistakes can be made. They were probably trying to answer their iPhone while driving.

    Our future is little. Our future is green.

  6. Re:RPGs on Serious Games - World of Borecraft? · · Score: 1

    And because you only played three times. You failed your spelling test.

  7. Re:summary on The MMOG Moneysellers Respond To Your Questions · · Score: 1

    Don't you mean "This is Chewbacca...

  8. Re:No 3G...$600 on All Things iPhone · · Score: 1

    That's why I want an 80gig video iPod with a touch screen and wifi capability. Forget the phone. And since cell network security wouldn't be an issue at that point, we could get a full SDK. Now that would be sweet.

  9. Re:result of years of lawsuits against custumers on University of Washington Will Aid RIAA · · Score: 1

    It's the new mode of operation in the courts. You're guilty till proven guilty. If somebody took the time to accuse of you of something, they must have had a valid reason to, so you must be guilty.

  10. Re:Where's the fancy image processing? on Google Street View Could Be Unlawful In Europe · · Score: 1

    That's almost disturbing. I mean I like the idea as you get people out of the way of what you are looking at but then again, with everything empty, it makes everything seem a bit dead.

  11. Re:That takes me back... on History of MECC and Oregon Trail · · Score: 1

    Decker has been eaten by a grue...

  12. Re:obligatory on Far-Fetched Time Travel Concept Receives Private Funds · · Score: 1

    "What clock do we measure by when measuring "before the message was created"?"

    Well that's easy. We measure the clock in the time that it before the message was created. All we have to do is travel back in time.

  13. Re:How big? on Moore's Law for Motherboards · · Score: 1

    That's 7.62 cm x 4.57 cm, for everyone reading this who isn't American.

    Wow! that's only 3.48234 × 10^-7 hectares

    For those of you who didn't bother reading the summary or TFA, that's 3 x 1.8 inches.

  14. Re:RTFA on SimCity 5 Passed Off From Maxis · · Score: 1

    This is interesting because a few years ago Maxis was working on a Sim Neighbourhood type game which was eventually canned I think before the release of Sim City 4. Kinda of a step between the Sims and Sim City.

    I guess we'll see where this "New" game goes.

  15. Re:Popup / flash / whatever alert on After Ubuntu, Windows Looks Increasingly Bad · · Score: 1

    Linux.sys-con.com owners. Feel free to post an apology. Go ahead. I'm waiting.

  16. Re:politicians. on Indecent Game Sales Now A Felony In New York · · Score: 1

    Do you honestly believe that? Then bend over now and wait. You have condemned yourself. In the world gone wrong, you will get what you have just asked for. If you do not desire freedom, you will not receive it.

  17. Re:give hima real punishment... on Spammer Robert Soloway Arrested · · Score: 1

    Well, that would be a pain. I was just thinking about the idea of 250k and 65 years. I think I'd rather pay a lot more money and have the jail time reduced. But then again, every dime he has should be frozen as it was ill gotten. Take everything he has and make him start over. Put him on parole for 65 years. Any infraction, nail him to the wall.

  18. Simple Enough on How to Keep Your Code From Destroying You · · Score: 2, Funny

    First of all. Don't write a program called MCP. Second, don't work for a company called Skynet.

    I was more hoping for a steel cage suspended forty feet above a pool of sharks with lazer beamz!

  20. Re:May fools? on Jack Thompson Sues Microsoft · · Score: 5, Insightful

    April fools was last month.

    There are fools every month.

  21. Re:Let the market decide on Should Games Be More Boring? · · Score: 1

    Chanting "let the market decide" like a mantra isn't meaningful or insightful; it's redundant.

    You must be new here.

  22. Sure it could have saved him... on Modern Medicine Might Have Saved Lincoln · · Score: 1

    but he'd still be dead.

  23. Re:Maybe... just maybe... on Cleaning up Thunder Bluff · · Score: 1

    I don't think that's a game industry issue but rather a broader social one.

  24. Re:Microsofts newest aquisition on Microsoft Buys Ad Firm for $6 Billion · · Score: 2, Informative

    Will have its addresses as the newest addition to my hosts file.

    You know what's funny about that? If you're using a MS OS, they can ignore your hosts file.

  25. Re:What are the implications for the website? on Fake E-Mail Results in Angry Apple Shareholders · · Score: 1

    Why should there be any liability? They were duped. All the idiots throwing money around over rumors deserve what they got. Maybe they should have waited for an official press release.
