THIS IS IN REAL TIME!!!!

Quick, get me that GUI interface so that I can track his IP! And don't forget to put a little game in there as well, you can't develop and application without little games attached.

Boy, CSI is really a disservice to public knowledge about computers

"I'll create a GUI interface using Visual Basic and see if I can track an IP address!"

Lol, man. That's about as bad as it gets. Probably MS paid for a product placement. Really CSI is laughable on so many levels, beginning with the idea of macho crime scene investigators running around with guns and arresting people. I'm not sure if that show is evidence that television writers are idiots, or that television consumers are idiots, but I have to be careful with that because my wife loves the show. So... television writers are sure idiots, aren't they?

My favorite is the power cables that were hooked up to a 12V car battery - they were flopping around near the pool like fallen power lines! Different episode though. Just awful!

And - GUI = Graphical User Interface. So she's creating a graphical user interface interface? Let's hear it for stamping out and abolishing redundancy!

 

[JACKDRUID]

lol wow she is going to create a GUI first, and THEN try to track the IP address...

and it has to be done in vb lol

And any vehicle that drives off of a cliff automatically bursts into flame...before hitting anything, like flying through the air causes it to explode.
...but only if there's bad guys inside, the good guys vehicles magically stop on the edge and teeter there.

Man I hate it when that happens, Ill just be driving along and all the sudden there is a speed bump. I've lost so many cars that way, Let this be a lesson to all, don't let air touch your flux capacitor!

That's not funny. That's painful...



Nah, it's funny. :laugh:

Usually I don't have problems with butchering technology on TV, but this one is just laughably bad. Most of the time the claims are so outrageous it's funny, this one is just stupid :laugh:

I saw that one when it aired and snickered. My wife turned to me and said, "is that another one of those CSI non-realisms?" My snicker turned to laughter at that point.
