  1. Tom Cruise a fake? on Scientology's Credibility Questioned Over Video Channel · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm convinced that Tom Cruise is being faked as well. I mean, come on guy, you did Top Gun! Get some self respect.

  2. Man, I hate LARP... but is that even what this is? on Roleplayers Seek Removal of Nerf Gun Ban · · Score: 1

    Ok, a little off topic, but I feel compelled to say something.

    What sort of roleplaying is involved in fighting off zombies? Does the Zombie team try to discover the new limits of their undead natures and overcome them, possible regaining some of their humanity through the struggle? No... they're zombies, they stagger around try to eat everyones brains. Now, there might be a bit of roleplaying possibilities on the Human team, but even then it would be very basic.

    I'm a table top RPG guy myself, and quickly developed a distaste for LARP, but this game sounds even further removed from the spirit of true roleplaying. I think that LAFS or LASEU would be more appropriate names.

    LAFS or "laughs"; pron. lahfs; Live Action First-Person Shooter
    LASEU or "lasso"; pron. la-soo; Live Action Shoot 'Em Up

  3. Omega Drivers? Personal responsibility? on NVIDIA's Drivers Caused 28.8% Of Vista Crashes In 2007 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Don't the ATI/nVidia Omega drivers work in Vista? Assuming they do, it seems most of the crashes were due to people being ill informed or giving up rather than the fault of either manufacturer. Personally, I would place blame on Microsoft before any manufacturer as I am sure they have *something* to do with the driver design process and making sure nVidia and ATI are properly informed. The ultimate blame, of course, rests on the users for daring to install a Microsoft product before SP2... http://www.omegadrivers.net/
