  1. Happy Ending on Canadian Censorship Takes Down 4500 Sites · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So it does work out in the end? There is bound to be some high profile sites out there that got shutdown and will now switch to another provider that will shows some *sunglasses* backbone?

  2. Good Read. on Computer Scientist Looks At ICBM Security · · Score: 1

    The thing that speaks to me while reading stories like this is how far we have actually managed to get, in a relatively short period of time. At one point both were stockpiling nuke upon nuke and then it all went away to what it is today.

  3. Re:Time a truly anonymous network for P2P on New Zealand Reintroduces 3 Strikes Law · · Score: 1

    I will pay once, a small amount, and then i can play it on what i want, where i want. You dont agree? What if you stamp your feet? The people will decide.

  4. Showing muscles to the little guy? on ASCAP Seeks Licensing Fees For Guitar Hero Arcade · · Score: 1

    Or else they would have gone straight to the distributor or publisher.

  5. Re:Had simply read the instructions on Israeli Border Police Shoot US Student's Laptop · · Score: 1

    What a dumb and twisted example, only Anonymous Coward would write that.

  6. Or as Tolkien would say it; on Swiss Geologist On Trial For Causing Earthquakes · · Score: 1

    "Swiss! Oh Swiss! Wonder of the Western world! Too deep we delved there, and woke the shameless trail." Free interpretation of course.

  7. Re:Really? on Is Console Gaming Dying? · · Score: 1

    FYI New Super Mario Bros for Wii is a triple AAA title from THÉ best console maker (Lets be honest they know what people want) into a starved Wii owner market that has been hungering for even a quality thirdparty game.

  8. Oh thats why its been a downhill slope with /. on Slashdot Turns 100,000 · · Score: 1

    After the first story post you thought, what the heck lets use fill up to get to 100.000. That explains some of the weird stuff that has been posted like: [Citation needed] Or for example [Citation needed] Fun stuff but really. What was the first story posted by the way?

  9. Re:Privacy fears on Mozilla Exec Urges Switch From Google To Bing · · Score: 1

    This is what all those Anonymous Cowards will have you believe.

  10. Nothing you can do... on Best Way To Clear Your Name Online? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Once its on the net, its on the net.

  11. Support this on New Aliens Vs. Predator Game Doesn't Make It Past AU Ratings Board · · Score: 0

    Ill be picking up a copy just for support. Its about time childish governments were treated like children.

  12. Re:Heroquest... on Games Workshop Goes After Fan Site · · Score: 0

    Does a publisher really have the right to limit access as a way to drive demand for future products? Should they?

    The internet will decide. It has so far worked out for the record and movie companies. Teehee.

  13. Re:Good grief! - Bend Over! on Hacker McKinnon To Be Extradited To US · · Score: 0

    The fact that the old lady didn't put up much of a fight when the mugger took her purse doesn't make it less of a mugging. 'But she was so easy to rob, didn't put up any fight at all! Send her to jail since she's not taking any self defense classes!'

    Except it wasn't an old lady, more like a 200 kg gorilla. Also no purse.

  14. Re:Boh on Dumbing Down Programming? · · Score: 0

    Then your Dad was like me, he loved the language. The perfect language for me would be between VB and C++, I love doing little hobby projects but I guess I feel this pressure from stories like this bare down on me, urging me for more control of my machine, yet C just baffles me. Too much to learn.

  15. Re:So they kicked off all the pirates now? on Microsoft Disconnects Modded Xbox Users · · Score: 0

    600.000 banned out of 20.000.000 sold xboxes isnt 3% modded xboxes. I bet there is a large percentage of people who dont go online or had theirs turned off. Like me.

  16. Re:How did it turn out? on Project Natal Release Details Emerge · · Score: 0

    They've sold about 360 million of games. Compare this with 166 million of games for PS3, and 288 million of games for the Xbox 360.

    And the source for this is? Google'd but I could not match the numbers you are throwing around.

  17. Re:Kind of obvious on Netbooks Have a Huge Impact On the PC Industry · · Score: 0

    Perhaps, or perhaps the average consumer has realized that the things you can actually do with a Netbook are different from what they though they would be thus cheaper+realistic expectations = profit?

  18. How can... on German Police Union Chief Wants Violent Game Ban After Shooting · · Score: 0
