Reply to Bad Movie Physics in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

That was a very entertaining article. Reminds me of Pointless Waste of Time , a wonderful site full of movie reviews, which is where I first learned that there is no sound in space. I believe I've developed a phobia of glass though. Still, I find it odd that they thought that Terminator had pretty good physics, considering that Albert Einstein has already proven that robots cannot travel through time.

Monitors: Is it just me or do they die too easily? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

My monitor just died, and it was a beautiful one. Now I'm stuck with this flimsy thing that has too many problems to let me be content. Hopefully, I'll buy another one soon, but before I do, I'd like to know something from the common man... Is it normal for CRT monitors to just die after 1 1/2 to 2 years, or am I just unlucky or very abusive with my monitors? <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/s

Since when is the activities on the Internet considered one's home? Since when is KaZaA considered somebody's home? If KaZaA is said to be one's home, which cannot be entered without a warrant, then the rest of the Internet should be considered the same way, because I don't see how KaZaA is any different from a site. Therefore, people should have the right to post anything illegal, including child pornography, anywhere on the Internet because unless the police will be able obtain a search warran

Reply to theme xp in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I like ThemeXP. Although I don't care for the wallpapers or themes (except the ThemeXP theme, which is really cool, and I wish it was updated), I love the logons at that site. I like seeing Sarah Michelle Gellar when I wake up in the morning.

Bottom line: Nobody on this site approves of "rips". Maybe not, but I do disapprove of people protecting their work from being ripped. That's just wrong. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Powered by Skin

Messy Bru, Actually, it's copyright infringement. It isn't easily categorized as theft, either, as a 1985 decision by the supreme court in Dowling v United Stated determined. The dictionary doesn't seem to have a problem defining piracy as: "use of copyrighted material without permission." Therefore, I think it's a perfect term to use. <

How is it a privacy issue, considering that they obtain the information from KaZaA, which is more like a mall than somebody's home, and if it was like somebody's home, then that person clearly has made it a home by allowing anybody to enter it and do business.

Reply to Are people looking for communities? Or Gangs? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Before I say anything else, it does seem like you are opening those three individuals up for flames by mentioning them by name and linking to their deviantART pages. That's not to say that I agree with their behavior though. Although some people here are sometimes a bit zealous in accusing others of something or misinterpreting their words, I do agree that WinCustomize is a good community. <img src="http://ima
