  1. Re:Let's get retarded in here on LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE · · Score: 1

    Then it's natural selection then. But still, you know an advocate group will raise a big stink about this sooner or later.

  2. Re:Let's get retarded in here on LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and all those people that do their job in flame retardant suits must be flaming retards, right? Political correctness isn't doing anything good.

  3. I'm still waiting for the Pacman movie on Space Invaders: The Movie · · Score: 3, Funny

    and that Tetris film

  4. Re:Incompatible with what? on Sony Announces End For MiniDisc Walkman · · Score: 1

    It was 1991, dummy. mp3 came around in 1993.

    Real-time MP3 playback did not come into fruition until late 1995, and it only started to get very popular when 1997 rolled around. The Diamond Rio portable MP3 player came out in late 1998. Also, MP3 encoding was a heavy work in progress in '93. It only started to sound relatively passable when l3enc matured in 1997.

  5. Re:Origin != Origin? on EA's Origin Service To Go Mobile · · Score: 1

    The other "Origin" going mobile was cut. Crusader for PSP was cancelled a long time ago. :(

  6. Re:Ska on SKA Telescope Set To Generate More Data Than Current Net · · Score: 3, Funny

    Implying that there's depth in ska to use a telescope for that is. A reggae telescope would be better. Let's all get together and see deep space, mon.

  7. I'd like to see a Ukranian/Russian call center. on The View From the Ground At an Indian Call Center · · Score: 1

    That'd be great, being powered by AT-class machines, a lack of air conditioning and all, if Peggy is true.

  8. S3 Savage Handheld on HTC To Buy S3 Graphics From VIA · · Score: 2, Funny

    So will HTC's smart phones get VESA3 support, terrible OpenGL, an annoying "InControl99" panel and the most unstable crashiest video drivers on the planet?

  9. Chain letters on 7 Days In Email Hell · · Score: 1

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Forward this mail to your contacts lists, or I won't eat my breakfast cereal anymore!

  10. Re:Now in a 123 yrs will they be able to recover m on Scientists Play World's Oldest Commercial Recording · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Forget MP3s, I wish it were possible to recover all the Microsoft ADPCM WAV music stuck on my inaccessible zip disks!

  11. Will they come in Hairy Potter styles? on Eyeglasses Made of Human Hair · · Score: 1

    That's what I want to know.

  12. I hope they don't take away offline pic management on Google To Rebrand Blogger & Picasa For Google+ Integration · · Score: 1

    I really hate the cloud.

  13. Re:Is that really a surprise on In Australia, Censorship vs. DNS, and Porn As Network Driver · · Score: 2

    I think "Jack Off Australia" would be the more appropriate song here.

  14. I should use it. on China Grows Its Own Twitter · · Score: 1

    It'd be great.

  15. They should add lasers on Natural Interaction With Flying Robots Via Kinect · · Score: 1

    and then call them HK's, it'd be very cool.

  16. Maybe not gmail outright on How To Get Websites To Ban Sign-ups From Gmail.com Accounts · · Score: 1

    but gmail addresses with overuse of periods. I've been seeing a lot of spammers of the likes of "j.im.my.h.of.f.a@gmail.com" invading SMF forums.

  17. Re:This isn't going to look for Darkstalkers on Court on Video Games: Less Cleavage, More Carnage · · Score: 1

    10 years? Make that 5 months.

    Come on, Felicia and the ESRB are even to blame for why the US didn't get more trailer releases, and the US's commercials were men, manly spandex men, even on man channels. That has to do with the issue here as well.

    MvC3 was terrible so I can understand the denial of the existence.

  18. This isn't going to look for Darkstalkers on Court on Video Games: Less Cleavage, More Carnage · · Score: 1

    The cleavagiest fighting game series in existence. Catgirls clad in fur pasties, succubus with the high Theiss tittilation theory, bee girls with obvious camel toes, it won't be the same if all this needs to be cut back because of congress! Though, I do applaud their red blood > white suspicious liquid substance preference.

  19. Re:Big deal on Source Engine SDK To Be Free · · Score: 1

    Alien Swarm which you mentioned, also got you the SDK, so a free Source SDK is old news. Not that it's any good being a terrible engine, terrible pipelines, no elegance, still using .qc files to compile assets, etc...

  20. "Failed to take off" on Police Vulture Training Not a Success · · Score: 5, Funny

    I've never seen a pun so logical with the problem like this.

  21. Re:Eyeroll on Microsoft Says Reinstall Overkill In Removing Rootkit · · Score: 1

    I know. Michelangelo'd floppies are probably deadlier than conficker... :( Today's viruses act so much like 90's hollywood viruses enough to bury the old school boot sector virus concept.

  22. Hrm. on ArenaLive, an Open Source MMOFPS · · Score: 1

    This is the first time i've ever heard of it. FYI, I currently lead the OpenArena project. I don't think this will take off for two reasons: - OA is already a free game to begin with, browserfying it would be very pointless. - Coder-only lead, no artists/mappers. - "ArenaLive" is a trademark violation waiting to happen.

  23. Re:For the last time, Duke Nukem isn't vapourware. on Aliens RPG Cancelled · · Score: 1

    You're in luck. Eduke32 is getting a new renderer called Polymer, which hopes to features some of this obligatory 'next gen' features that have been standard for 4 years now.

  24. Or worse on ZeniMax, Parent Company of Bethesda, Buys id Software · · Score: 1

    Personally, I think this will just mean id software becoming a 'licensed game sweatshop' with non-stop Elder Scrolls spinoffs and Terminator titles. I sure hope they stick to their own original IPs and only get production funding out of this...

  25. Re:What happened to iD's licensing on ZeniMax, Parent Company of Bethesda, Buys id Software · · Score: 1

    Bethesda was no different for high system requirements either.
