What idiot decides to help a spammer break out of prison? I'd be like "have fun in prison, time to find me a new husband"

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Plastic Motor Powered Directly By Light, No Solar Middleman Necessary]]> This actually isn't such a bad concept. I'm not seeing this powering automobiles in the next decade, but this would be absolutely wonderful for small scale autonomous robots. Seriously, imagine dozens of tiny roomba vacuums roaming the house, constantly cleaning every surface? (carpets, tile, countertops, toilets), all on free energy.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Creative Decks Out Zen Range with Patterned Mozaic PMP]]> Look at me! I'm a trendy mp3 player that looks like a dance club... and nobody cares

Honestly I haven't used creative since the buggy (and horrible battery life) zen micro, and even now I don't even use my 4gb Sansa now that I have an 8gb ipod inside my iphone. Really, for $200 I can have a nice phone and a really great mp3 player, why would I bother with a seperate player?

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Plug-In Hybrid Pickup To Get 100 MPG, Sticker Of Calvin Peeing On Our Foreign Oil Dependency]]> wool, meet eyes..

I'm willing to bet when it's released they'll spec it as 100mpg too, even though that's only true for the first 60 miles (since it's running off of straight electricity for the first 40). After that, it's good old 4-banger 60mpg hybrid goodness.

How dumb do they think consumers are?

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Sega Says the iPhone Is As Powerful As the Dreamcast]]> according to the apple site, also twice as powerful as the psp (in a smaller package with phone to boot). All we need is a wireless bluetooth controller and it'd be a hell of a game system.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Miata Owner Gets Bored, Swaps In Jaguar V12]]> I bet the heater works great in colder climates.. in fact you may burn your legs on the engine sticking into the interior!

Nice work, but a little silly, seriously? A ford V-8 swap wasn't enough power?

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on BlackBerry Waving the White Flag and Loving It]]> honestly I thought I'd hate the touchscreen keyboard, but I almost prefer it. When keys get so small your fingers start mashing multiple keys together, it doesn't matter if they are physical keys. At least with a touchscreen you get the option of moving your finger until your on the right key.

I have to give it to apple, they've got the better phone.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Toothless Old Guy Builds 50 MPG Engine-Powered Tricycle, CNN Thinks It's Newsworthy]]> slow news day in arkansas? Nice gas prices though, I haven't seen under $4 in months.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Actual Google Phone Rumors Revived: Designed by Ammunition Group]]> I couldn't wait that long, I bought the 3g iphone this weekend. Your not going to see a gphone until the end of the year at best, of not next year. Google hasn't released an updated non-buggy version of their SDK since it was released 4 months ago, the programming language is more difficult than the one for the iphone, and quite frankly I wouldn't be surprised if the "free developers" give up and start developing for the iphone.

Don't hold your breathe, android was a good idea, but google is taking their sweet time, something you can't do in the cellphone market. Maybe when my contract with AT&T is up in 2 years and there's actually decent support for android, I might switch.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on 1986 Ford Mustang LX]]> If that's an 85, it's an 85-1/2.. I thought 1986 was the first year they switched to the bubble headlights? Same year the taurus came out.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on 2009 Ford Fiesta Engine Specs Announced, Top-Of-The-Line Duratec Hits 118 HP]]> Ford might actually have a chance if it can retail for about the price of a focus.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on The 1986 Honda CRX Si: Good For 17,000,000 MPH!]]> I concur.. the CRX was one of the most efficient, lightweight, simple, yet peppy little cars ever. The safety commission needs to stop hassling us, sometimes you need to thin the herd.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Federal Crash Test Ratings To Be Updated: We All Drive Death Traps Again]]> great, even more regulations that will weigh down vehicles even more and drop mpg. perfect timing too with gas prices soaring! I've had enough, I'm going to go find me a 1985 honda civic CRX off craigslist that gets 55mpg before safety was an issue.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on The Backpack Bicycle For Ultra-Portable, Potentially Dangerous Transportation]]> concepts are great, too bad they don't include any of the fine details like movement.

Speaking as an engineer, that concept would take a lot to keep it strong and actually function without something stripping.

I have a friend who's been doing stereos for almost 20 years, and he still hacks things together (avoiding connectors whenever possible to save money), although I don't think he's ever done damage like this, I think the worse thing he did was fry a main $300 wiring harness when he shorted the battery.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on uSirius Streams Sirius Satellite Radio to Your iPhone]]> This could be nice.. though I'm hoping this isn't extra. Sirius subscribers can stream online for free.

I hope the iphone DOESN'T have tactile feedback (or at least has a switch to turn it off), it eats up battery life big time.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Retromodo: Bill Gates, Panhandlers and Hamburglers On 60 Minutes]]> gah.. have homeless people really gotten that lazy? they ask for change through a window? The least he could have done was go into the restaurant.

And people wonder why they're homeless, maybe because they don't realize you can't hear someone really well through glass.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Hoser Runs Self Over With Remote Starter]]> Hence why it's illegal in the US to install a remote starter kit on a manual transmission car, because of idiots like this.

I HATE when the dealer puts my car in gear because I never do, and I don't always remember to wiggle the stick.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on 12-Year-Old Wins Dodge Caliber For Going To School]]> you kids today! A freakin car for going to school? I was lucky to get a pizza for having perfect attendance for an entire semester, and even then I'm like "meh, I didn't do it for the pizza, I had no reason to skip, but thanks for the free lunch anyway"

Yeaa.. so in other words this is an idea with a flashy 3d rendering of what it could look like. who hasn't thought of such a device, how is this news?

I'm gonna go draw a device that looks like it could make me invisible, and then make a statement "I'm looking for someone to invent this for me"

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Why Aren't All Small Cars Selling?]]> How about.. american car companies have a lot of catching up to do? it's been so easy for them to build roomy gas guzzling cars for so long, and now suddenly they have to flip the switch and make cars like imports? Sorry, but it's going to take a lot to convince the american public to buy an american made sub-compact.

]]> <![CDATA[toyotaboy commented on Dyson Developing Electric Car, Will Probably Suck]]> I hate this guy so much! Anyone can make a successful product creating 1700 prototypes to get it right. I get 2 chances to design a product, and one of them is the final tooled mold.
