"You fucked up...you trusted us!" /Otter, Animal House

Nashville is on Google's newest list of prospective expansion cities; even if we do make the cut and my particular "fiberhood" doesn't get enough people to light it up right away during the buildout, maybe it'll light a huge fire under Comcast to give my better service and prices.

OK, we get that you really, really HATE Win8, but not everyone does. Could MS improve it? Sure. Under the hood, where it counts, is it all bad? No. Get over yourself, you sanctimonious douchebag.

Wow, this is funny...I could have sworn for a moment that I landed at Free Republic by accident when this comment thread loaded up. /fire up the Black Helicopters, boys...

OK, what would you suggest? Tomato?

I won't buy a router that's not DDWRT-capable and haven't in years. I know that takes some worthy contenders out of the field, but most factory firmwares suck ass; few manufacturers put decent GUIs on their routers with good configurability (Linksys used to be an exception to this, but I don't...

No, they have trademarks and trade dress/trade secret protections; that can get just as nasty.

Nothing's wrong with reusing boxes (and packing materials, like air bags and foam), as long as it's in good condition and previous shipping labels/marks are obscured. Why waste something that's perfectly functional and that can be reused?

I wonder how long it'll take for some pot grower to use these in their indoor grow room?

I buy AMD/ATI and have since the Slot A Athlon and Radeon 7000; as long as they have products with good performance that I can work with at a good price, I'll continue to buy from them. Everything else is just gravy.

"The" Wendy of Wendy's is very much alive (and has been featured in one of the latest marketing campaigns for the company, but Dave Thomas (founder of the company and father of the company's namesake) has been dead for 10 years today. Harland Sanders (the Colonel) has been dead for almost 30...

If true, I think that Verizon might want Netflix to counter Comcast.

Who knew R. Kelly was a computer tech working for HP? ;)

Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money!

Right here...

Umm, what?

I sure as hell didn't like EA's decision to go Origin-exclusive for BF3, because I like managing my games with Steam. However, after playing the open beta, there were just more pros than cons for me in putting up with Origin to be able to play the game. That's not to say that Origin, as it...

Or played the open beta, which was good for getting an idea what the finished game would be like, but it was only meant for testing EA's backend. Haters gonna hate...

While they rifle through all of your financial accounts, sell your identity, and leave you ruined? Thanks, PassMyWill, but no thanks. As for anyone who goes for this, I can only think of what Otter told Flounder after they trashed Flounder's brother's Lincoln in Animal House: "You f**ked...

Most constitutional protections (such as the Bill of Rights) only apply to governmental actions against citizens, not to actions by private persons and companies against other private parties. Other laws (contract, labor, etc.) may give some protections in some circumstances AFAIK, but barring...

Zing! Pow!

Paranoid much?

Top.Men.

You were conspicuously missing from the threads talking about the bullshit Apple corporate security (apparently with the complicity of the SFPD, with cops standing there to give the color of authority) pulled over their missing iPhone 5...

Got me through high school... /Spies Like Us

If those accessories infringe on Apple's trademarks, patents, or trade dress, I agree that Apple is in the clear going after these folks on this part of it. If not, sounds like BS to me.

In regards to the accessories, I'd think there would be a Magnuson-Moss issue with how Apple's going after these folks. I could be wrong, though...

Fox Television (Bones, Family Guy, etc.) =/= Fox News. Murdoch may lord over all of it, but they are two distinct business units. Granted, Fox wouldn't be my favorite network to revive Cosmos (and Seth McFarlane wouldn't be my first choice to produce it), but so long as they keep it straight...

Julian Assange is a self-righteous, self-promoting ass and his MC "parody" is a reminder of that.

Take up space, harass (potentially) paying customers, and draw a paycheck...

+1 You win today's internets!

At least there's more useful info in Newegg's reviews (most of the time) than what issues forth from the pieholes of BBY salesdrones...

No, that's about right...

Sorry, I meant "low-end" as in a laptop that's either ancient, cheap (1 GB of RAM nowadays? C'mon, spring for a little more RAM there!), or both of the above.

My guess is that, judging by the Synaptics software process running in the task manager, the "article"'s author did this on a low-end laptop or a netbook. With that, I'll take any tech insight they give with a trainload of salt...

Captain O'Hagan: I swear to God I'm going to pistol whip the next guy who says, "Shenanigans." Mac: Hey. Farva...what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks? Farva: You mean Shenanigans? Mac: OOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Thorny...

Did you ask where Jenny was? ;)

Watch out, the Bilderbergers are coming for you in their black helicopters... :rolleyes:

This is a political move, nothing more, and has little or nothing to do with the public interest. Ohio and Wisconsin are both governed by GOP governors and majority-GOP legislatures and Google is seen to be uber-liberal by those on the far right, people who never saw a corporation they didn't...

Someone back in the original Crysis 2 thread (I thought it was you) said something that I thought is spot on: If you have to edit a text file or use console commands to adjust basic game settings, the game is broken.
