  1. most people prefer to rent, not own, a set-top. on The Trouble With TiVo · · Score: 1

    I cant accept that this is true. Especially since the people have just fought for and achived the right to own the cable box.

  2. iHate on What's Keeping US Phones In the Stone Age? · · Score: 1

    Sheesh, I realize the fanboyism is too much but posts like this are just outrageous. Do you people realize that the SLVR and the RAZR were $300+ unless you signed a contract? You guys keep bitching at the iPhone cost but never acknowledge how much MORE you get. Take the Casio W41CA.... 70 MG versus 4 GB. 2.6 inch screen 200x400 vs the iPhone's 3.5inch 340x480... I could go on, but if you guys want to ignore the facts, there's no helping you.

  3. Author of this post is cookoo on Which Google Should Congress Believe? · · Score: 1

    Time and time again you guys use utterly crappy logic! Whether or not Google can hire the people Google desires has no bearing on if they are hiring at all. If anything they are hiring two or more people to replace that one person they really need. This egg carton has more than one space for an egg!

  4. Re:From a single source! on Humans Evolved From a Single Origin In Africa · · Score: 1

    No, it was like a series of tubes...

  5. Girls scare Linux users on Do "Illegal" Codecs Actually Scare Linux Users? · · Score: 1

    I not sure how to expand on the title....

  6. Re:Quit pointing fingers on False Copyright Claims · · Score: 1

    Real doesn't exclude exaggerated.

  7. From a single source! on Humans Evolved From a Single Origin In Africa · · Score: 1

    That's just what it says in the Bible!

  8. Is this a real complaint? on Where In the US Can You Get Just a Cell Phone? · · Score: 1

    My 67 year old mother has a RAZR. She knows how to store numbers and make calls. She just ignores the other technology... I really dont see what the problem is here. Or by her a child's cell phone.

  9. more than 10 years... on Blogging Is 10 Years Old · · Score: 1

    I wrote myself a Perl script to "blog" back in 1995. Cause it was easier to update a website...

  10. Quit pointing fingers on False Copyright Claims · · Score: 1

    Piracy, where the numbers are real or exaggerated,has real damages. What is the dollar cost of copyfraud?

  11. This perspective is crap on Putting Canadian Piracy in Perspective · · Score: 1

    Come on guys. Stick to logic. People buying movies and music does not represent piracy. Sales can be at all time highs while piracy is at all time highs. Sales growing represents economic prosperity and is a function of the economy. Sales will grow and diminish regardless of the level of piracy.

  12. 2 kinds of irony on Bogus Company Obtains Nuclear License · · Score: 1

    1. That this information is publicized and terrorists can learn from it
    2. That in criticizing this admin people finally believe the intel. (yet disvbelieve the intel. that supports this admin)

  13. Re:WTF on FCC Head Wants New Wireless Devices Unlocked · · Score: 1

    Fine. Which part of the Constitution allows for an unelected entity such as the FCC to control radio waves?

  14. Load of crap on The Psychology of Facebook Examined · · Score: 0

    If I have a small number of friends, it might also mean that I don't accept every yahoo, porn star, band, and idiot out there.

  15. WTF on FCC Head Wants New Wireless Devices Unlocked · · Score: 2, Insightful

    While I'd love for my iPhone to be unlocked, I am wondering what authority does the Constitution give the government to mandate unlocking.

  16. Timelines on iPhone Battery Replacement An Unwelcome Surprise · · Score: 0

    It seems like I saw the cost of the battery as early as the release date, if not before. This consumer thing is a lame attack.

  17. One possible negative re-action on Singles, Not Albums, Define Music Industry Success · · Score: 0

    Labels stop paying artists to produce 10-16 tracks and only pay for 2 or 3. Which would suck because I often like the lesser known tracks better.

  18. What about this on O2 Offered iPhone Contract in UK · · Score: 0

    Let's all ignore the issue until Apple announces its European partners. Sheesh.

  19. Easy answer on Presence Systems Number One On Federal Wish List · · Score: 0

    Just loking the break room. Government employees are the most inefficient workers in the world.

  20. Who tags these things? on Lake Disappears into Andes · · Score: 0

    The tags on this story are completely useless.

  21. take the printers' word on InkJet Printers Lying, Or Just Wrong? · · Score: 0

    My printers wont print if they think they are out of ink (Epson, Brother)

    I have no choice

  22. Waste... on Google Spends Money to Jump-Start Hybrid Car Development · · Score: 0

    Ever since I saw Who Killed The Electric car I have thought that JObs, Gates, and Gore should create and electric car company....

    But "research" is a waste. Its 10 steps back. We have the technology. We have shitloads of technology! The problem we are facing isn't know-how, its implementation. Improvements will come from user feedback and market forces.

  23. The problem for AT&T is... on Will AT&T Start Filtering Your Connection? · · Score: 0

    If they start blocking content they are assuming some liability.

    And how will they know what files are pirated?

  24. You need to understand what you bought on Even Century Old Records Had Restrictive Licensing · · Score: 0

    You bought the media, not the song. You never own the song. You own vinyl, tape or, a digital file. Nothing more.

  25. This is not a fight on Apple Picking a Fight it Can't Win With Safari · · Score: 0

    I Who would even think that Apple is aiming for browser dominance. You guys never get it. Safari on windows is simply so people can develop for iPhone.

    Even so, you guys said the same thing about the iPod and the iTunes music store. And you were wrong.
