  1. Welcome to Japan 10 years ago... on Corporate Gaming Is Good For Business · · Score: 1

    ...you short-sighted bean-counting jackasses. I hate you. Where the hell is my cellular porn?

  2. Re:LIARS! on Diebold Admits Ohio Machines May Lose Votes · · Score: 1

    Sorry, I apologize for my poor language and unacceptable behavior earlier. What I meant to say was - Microsoft did it!!!

  3. LIARS! on Diebold Admits Ohio Machines May Lose Votes · · Score: 1

    Diebold you fucking jackasses. Your machines have a "bug" that just happens to lose tons of votes for Democrats?? You think any of us really think that was accidental?

  4. Re:Flash sucks on Why Is Adobe Flash On Linux Still Broken? · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately I have to agree. Cortado stands alone as a viable Theora web player and cannot be faulted as such but I cannot abide by a system as complex as Java that has such massive performance and stability issues.

  5. Re:First Post on Game Developer's Response To Pirates · · Score: 1

    I as well.

  6. What could possibly go wrong? on Rat-Brained Robots Take Their First Steps · · Score: 1

    Seriously... if the outcome of that similar-themed Shadowrun campaign we did all those years ago is any indication, these people need to be stopped at any cost...

  7. obvious justification: brand identity on BSOD Makes Appearance at Olympic Opening Ceremonies · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...after all, if it had just done its job flawlessly there'd be no way for the crowd to know it was a microsoft product.

  8. placing my mark on contempt on Why Microsoft Cozied up to Open Source at OSCON · · Score: 1

    When they really mean it video games will work well with wine.

  9. Re:Stupid terraforming.. on Water Ice On Mars · · Score: 1

    I am not a scientist, but assuming that the water they just found is actually water, and that there is enough of it, that would work I think.

    "Cheap" however I don't think is the correct word to use for this type of a project.

  10. In a word... on Encyclopedia Britannica to Take User Contributions · · Score: 1

    Hideous. The beta site is absolutely ugly. It makes my eyes hurt.

  11. Missing option: SNES Advantage on Seven Failed Foot-Based Game Controllers · · Score: 1

    I swear that you can use this controller effectively with your feet.

  12. Nokia E70 huh? That reminds me... on Smartphones For Text SSH Use — Revisited · · Score: 1

    ... I actually *had* heard of this phone. I REALLY wanted one when they came out, but I couldn't buy one because AT&T/Cingular won't carry them. I think they won't even support them. Unfortunately the area I live in only has acceptable coverage with AT&T/Cingular, so riddle me this:

    HTF do I get a decent smartphone with AT&T/Cingular?

  13. Agreed. on Apple to Rule the Digital Home by 2013? · · Score: 1

    Perhaps it's wishful thinking but I honestly suspect that Nintendo is the one that will pull it off, and largely because they tend to fly under Sony and Microsoft's radar.

  14. Re:Websight?? on Breakdowns of Website Defacement by Platform · · Score: 1

    yes

  15. If you can't beat 'em, just pay them off. on Counter-Claims On Flaws In OOXML Meeting · · Score: 1

    OOXML by Microsoft? Isn't that the company that was facing anti-trust litigation world wide all those years ago? What the hell are they still doing around?

    *sigh*

  16. Re:How flat is the universe? on The Universe Is 13.73 Billion Years Old · · Score: 1

    Thank you sir.

  17. Re:How do I get infected? on Linux Kernel 2.6 Local Root Exploit · · Score: 1

    yea its a "local root exploit" as opposed to a "remote root exploit" which means it has to be run locally either by a user or somehow fed to a process capable of being tricked into running arbitrary code locally. as i understand it this is less of a concern for desktop installs because most hardware accelerated 3d graphics drivers for X are shot full of these types of exploits anyway due to the nature of the way they use the hardware, however the linux kernel itself is typically more secure than that.

  18. yea but how do we disable it till its fixed? on Linux Kernel 2.6 Local Root Exploit · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Pardon me for the rookie question - but can anyone tell us which kernel config option enables this so-called vmsplice? I'm no even clear on what its for... if its something I don't need can I disable it through menuconfig or is it something that I'll need a patch to disable?

    ... there goes my dream of the perfect girlfriend.

  22. Simple. on OLPC, Microsoft Working Toward Dual-Boot XO Laptops · · Score: 2, Funny

    ... and later, should a service pack "accidentally" sabotage the boot process for the open source operating systems on the machine leaving clueless young users assuming that its a "Linux problem" and turning to the "more reliable" Windows for basic communication... no I don't see any way they could profit from this at all.

  23. extra tags on Professors Slam Java As "Damaging" To Students · · Score: 1

    Ooh green chicks with tusks. Kinky.

  25. injured pride? on Gates Expresses Surprise Over IE8 Secrecy · · Score: 1

    Maybe he just doesn't want to talk to anyone because you've all hurt his feelings? After trying so hard to get IE7 out of Firefox's shadow and still ending up getting shit from the community for not doing a good enough job he's probably just crying in a corner somewhere, plotting revenge at any cost.
